As a Vietnamese, I have a lot of Thai friends. We often make a lot of plans to visit a lot of beautiful places in Thailand and Vietnam. Maybe Vietnam spent a lot of bloody wars in the past, so our country needs more time to rebuild a lot of things. In general, I am happy to make friends with Thai, Myanmar, Lao, and Cambodia people.
After living in Thailand for 3 years I can see Vietnam passing Thailand in all things except tourism. The Buddhist philosophy takes all initiative and assertiveness out of ordinary people. Vietnamese people are more industrious and just as nice to deal with.
Not sure about your take on Buddhism. Countries such as Korea, Japan, and China have strong Buddhist roots.
It is more likely the corrupt politics of the military combined with the equally corrupt royalty that sucks the life from the common Thai people.
Thailand and Vietnam do not even share any history together.
Except food !
@@jesusbuddhacultcom8130 There are a lot of people who prefer Vietnamese food.
Most Vietnamese are Buddhist. It's the southern Chinese work culture that's making Vietnamese like that (Viets are a mix of local groups and southern Chinese)
Du lịch Thái rất đỉnh, VN mãi vẫn không theo kịp. Các thành phố du lịch Thái sạch sẽ, không có rác thải, không khí trong lành, người dân thân thiện, giá cả dịch vụ xứng tầm. Thái Lan xứng đáng thủ đô du lịch thế giới
ฉันชอบเที่ยวเวียตนามมากๆ ธรรมชาติที่ยังบริสุทธิ์ และราคาก็ไม่แพง
S.E.A. we r friend. 😊
Many comments here are fighting over which country is better than others which is unethical. Please be an adult with your comments and respect both countries culture. Whichever leap that suit retirees taste of life let them be. Every culture is different and so is everything else in that country. There are diversity of retirees amongst themselves all over the world. Please be respectful, it goes a long way.
I prefer Vietnam
My experience is that they differ a lot. Thailand is warm and friendly and easy to explore. Vietnam is even more beautiful.. Very interesting with its political history. Better food. But Vietnam is also a bit edgy, more competetive. It can sometimes be a challenge to visit. Frequent scams in the big cities. That said, both are lovely countries.
I haven't been scammed in Saigon, Hanoi still has them
@@christopherpekel6096 Then you been lucky. Have you for example in Saigon tried any other taxi companies than Mai Linh or Vinasun? I experienced a lot of shit in Saigon-but the city is still a very nice place to visit🙂.
@@andersfant4997 that's true, no I haven't. Only stuck with the big companies. I generally only get on the grab motorbikes or hire a bike for myself.
Người nước ngoài đến Việt Nam buôn bán ma túy , lừa đảo rửa tiền qua Internet đều bị bắt và ngày 28/4 /2024 mới bắt 3 tên cướp cửa hàng điện thoại tất cả bị tóm trong 24h . Tội phạm nghĩ Việt Nam là đất hứa nhưng an ninh ở Việt Nam rất nghiêm .
I have lived in Thailand for 14 years and also visited Vietnam.
I prefer the Vietnamese people to the Thai people.
And where are you now? How ‘s your life in VN ?
@@bannette7722 his profile saying Ex New Zealand now living in Thailand..🤣
@@nonon0n0o That might be very terrible that he has to live in Thailand rather than VN .
Thai people are naturally dark and indigenous looking.
From my experience Thai people are not authentic.
Vietnam & Vietnamese people for me, thank you, I come from Europe,
Vietnam definitely wins on cost of living but I'm not quite sure about quality of life yet. Bottom line, both options offer great value for money but I definitely still prefer Thai food.
Great point
You like sugar in your curry?
@@edgregory1try issan food
@@edgregory1 Lol facts hurt 🤣
Most Thai foods are not even authentic.
Awesome video.👏🏼🎉
Thanks for sharing your time with us all. Cheers from 2 Canadians 🇨🇦 living in Mexico.🇲🇽✌🏼🥰
Thanks for watching!
Having lived in both places, one of the biggest negatives of Vietnam in noise pollution. Thai's seldon blow their horns while in Vietnam the blare of horns frankly, obnoxious and annoying. Another big disadvantage is traffic. Although not for the faint of heart, I ride my motorbike easily in Thailand, I wouldn't even try. If I were looking for a wife, Thailand wouldn't be very high on my list. Vietnamese ladies seem to be a bit more loyal.
These are just my personal experiences.
I plan to live weekdays in VN and weekends in Thailand.
that is a very good plan have a great time ⌚
Actually Thailand is ahead in life quality and more liberate then Vietnam. Vietnam still needs 2 decades to overtake but they sure have the ability to do it, the question is if they can use the one in a life time chance they now were given through the world political constellation.
Before 1975, Vietnam was better than Thailand and South Korea. After the Fall of Saigon into Communist Regime , those 2 Country went up with the right directions but Vietnam went down under Communists.
Two decades to overtake? Nonsense, It will take Vietnam only 4-5 years before they overtake Thailand on the economic fronts. They have multiple bigger cities unlike Thailand that just centers on Bangkok and pattaya. Most of the foreign investments and hi-tech, AI industry going to Vietnam over other southeast Asian countries.
The quality of medical care and availability of specialized treatments in Vietnam may not be as extensive as in Thailand. Actually in terms of medical tourism Thailand competes with Turkey in Premier League, and Vietnam is in League Championship. But this clip intends to communicate that Thailand boasts about their medical tourism.
Thailand is the best place ever!!
What about the legal and government system?
Thailand has better infrastructure, food, more friendly and honesty people, which draw more tourists to visit the country. Quality of the people is the most important for developing the country. Thailand without its Thai people, it's not Thailand.
Tourists want to visit Thailand because Thai people, Thai food, and Thai historical places.
Without its friendly and honesty people, there wouldn't be any tourists visit Thailand. Thailand is bringing in $12-15 billions yearly into the country from tourism alone. That makes Thailand farahead from other countries in S.E. Asia.
You forgot about Singapore. I think Singapore and Vietnam are much more interesting than Thailand. Thailand is only good for vacation, not good for everything else.
Singapore is interested? To whom? Not to westerners that's for sure
@@hunterl4328 I probably wont get a reply but I'll ask anyway. Can you clarify what you mean by not good for everything else? I'm curious about what is not good
I prefer Vietnamese people. In fact, after 6 years in Thailand I'll be based in Da Nang very soon.
I'm very curious what do you like about Vietnam? Infrastructure is worse than Thailand, Thai tourism is also more famous
@@Ngocson2603 It might come from the cost of living, more modern cities vs Thailand (only Bangkok & Pattaya), beach along Vietnam, the taste of food quite the same (some says Vietnamese food better), less protests, no bomb, Thai tourism is more famous but for those stays longer more than a year as above, they are no more tourists. And I am not impressive by Pattaya, it even cannot be beautiful vs Nha Trang. Its full of old retired man, those are seeking for young women. Ewwww
I am Vietnamese and I think traveling to Vietnam cannot be compared to Thailand because Thailand is a country of tourism and traveling to Thailand is also cheaper than Vietnam so I go twice a year. Thai food doesn't really suit my taste, so I often go to Vietnamese or Korean restaurants to have the energy to go out for entertainment because Bangkok has a lot of things to relax in.
Cheaper travelling to Thailand? From where?
I love them both. When I go to Vietnam it feels a lot like Thailand 20* years ago. For me I love the differences
Thailand is culturally and historically very different than Vietnam. Not even sure what you mean when you say Thailand is like Vietnam 20 years ago.
He's saying Vietnam 20 years behind Thailand. 🤔
The wars have set Vietnam back years, but I still believe Vietnam will surpass Thailand over time. I say give Vietnam 5-8 years.
Vietnam’s overall economy has already surpassed Thailand.
ไอ้ที่บอกจะแซงหน้าอีก5ปี แล้วไม่คิดบ้างหรือว่าใน5ปีนี้ไทยก็พัฒนาเพิ่ขึ้นไปอีก😊😊😊 ไทยไม่ได้ถูกแช่แข็งแล้วหยุดพัฒนาไปเฉยๆนะ เพราะอะไรรู้มั้ย เพราะเวียดนามพูดแบบนี้มาเป็นสิบๆรอบแล้วที่บอกจะแซง สุดท้ายไทยก็ฉีกหนีขึ้นไปอีก ข้อเปรียบเทียบต่างๆอาจจะไม่หนีกันแต่ละประเทศมีข้อดีข้อเสียเหมือนกัน แต่สิ่งที่เวียดนามยังตามไทยอยู่เยอะคือ จิตวิญญาณในการให้บริการต้อนรับผู้มาเยื่อน มันไม่ใช่แค่การฝึกแต่นิสัยการบริการมันอยู่ในตัวคนไทยมาแต่กำเนิด
Never been to either but trying to go to both
about religious, i think Vietnam, on a plus side, Vietnam actually has 3 part, the culture also depend on parts, the north, hold the original, might be tricky , the south is more opening , the middle part... well, it is about the tribal, their origins still maintain through out centuries, the Cham people , their culture is totally difference from both North and South, also in the North of the middle, Hue city is also difference and more like the North
Hue is very clean
Let’s cut to the quick; north Vietnam tries to be communist and south Vietnam is allowed to be capitalist
Forgot to mention the most important thing. VISA
👍💛
😊❤
There are lots of places in Vietnam selling dog meat. There are none in Thailand. I choose Thailand anytime over Vietnam
🇻🇳 Vietnam is for more serious living .
🇹🇭 Thailand is like living in a lie every day .
Vietnamese women are a much higher class because the education is higher .
Even Laos students prefer Vietnam .
This comment must belong to a jealousful cambodian.
women agian lol.
Lol.. that mindset is exactly why there are more foreigners in Thailand. Education is not that much different for both countries by the way.
@nonon0n0o I'm in a better situation to look at the statistics . Having been in several different Thai schools and having a Thai daughter in those schools .
Vietnam is light years ahead of Thailand as well as most students have a desire to learn English to study abroad . Can't say the same for Thailand. But I've seen the ol' expat delusional defense for many years . 🙄 Don't you get tired of it ? How many points is Thailand going to give you , or MAYBE they'll make you "Farang of the Year" and grant you citizenship one day .... after you're long dead of course .
@@nonon0n0o A large number of Vietnamese women want to learn.
Not the same with Thai women.
Why is Vietnam don't want to have a Retirement Visa ?
Thailand is the best place to live in south East Asia
Thailand is garbage 🗑
I don’t think so.
nowhere in south east asia beats singapore
@@KenGold666 Thailand is too touristy. Their beaches aren't even good compared to a lot of other countries.
Altogether: Thailand 100% - food = Vietnam 100% !!!
thailand is already super touristic. vietnam has still few years to go before this turns into tourist only place. overall issue is SEA is that there are hardly any real nature left.
WHY TALK ABOUT HOW MUCH VISA RUN WILL COST YOU AND INCONVIENENCE, THESE ARE COST OF LIVING.
Thái Lan ok mặc dù chưa đến đó bao h
Cambodia for me
Người Mỹ muốn VN là tiền đồn chống Trung Quốc trong hàng chục năm tới. Nhưng người Việt ko chống ai cả. Người Việt hợp tác, thân thiện với cả Trung Quốc và Mỹ. Tương lai VN sẽ vượt Hàn Quốc, tiếp cận quy mô Nhật Bản. Điều đó có lợi cho cả thế giới, nhưng chắc Trung Quốc và Cambodia ko muốn thế! Hihi!
Meep moving six month each
Both great and welcoming countries. I feel like Thailand is further ahead in infrastructure at least in the city. But Vietnam feels more accessible despite this. Both have amazing food, if I had to choose I’d go with Vietnam just because the coffee is so good there.
Việt Nam có 54 dân tộc khác nhau nên văn hoá đa dạng hơn Thái Lan rất nhiều, lịch sử Việt Nam cũng hơn 4000 năm nên lâu đời hơn Thái Lan rất nhiều. Cách làm du lịch của Thái Lan bài bản hơn hẳn Việt Nam nhưng có người nói rằng người Hư thì đến Thái, người tốt thì đến Việt Nam. Thái Lan lấy việc cho phép các phố đèn đỏ hoạt động mại dâm và phát triển cần sa là để thu hút thêm du lịch, gái Thái kết hôn với khách Âu, Mỹ rất nhiều và Việt Nam thì không như vậy
I'm Vietnamese and was 2 time in Thai to travel. I think Thai better
Thai is more indigenous.
The grass is always greener on the other side.
every country will have other beauty😊😊❤❤

Retired expat from the US living in Thailand.
Love Thailand. Have a great Thai Wife.
We lovel Vietnam. Visit several times a year.
Thanks for sharing
Thai music is far superior
lol thai music hurts my ears. Both Thai and Vietnamese language are bad and not pleasant but Vietnamese language is a tad less annoying. And Vietnamese music is so much better sounding. Plus, their written language is not some scrippling scratch like Thai. They use the Roman alphabet so it's easier to read.
@@janchxxheonczsekk6412 You sound like a real expert lol
@@clivebaxter6354 lmao....more so than u
@@janchxxheonczsekk6412 Thai music fan for 30 years, been to over 1200 concerts, know a lot of singers and written articles about it.
@@clivebaxter6354 that doesn't mean u have good taste..LMAO. most everyone knows the Thai language is annoying and nasal as eff. Same goes with the music
Im Vietnamese, i chosen Thailand
Vietnam is cheaper quiet and relax
Vietnam is better
Vietnam is truly East Asian. Thailand can only pretend to be....
How's the Vietnamese people feel about Americans today after the war?
Vietnam rank as one of the top countries in viewing America with great respect and admiration. They love America and have absolutely no animosity against America especially with what the Americans did to them. Can you see any country who forgive their enemy that quickly?
@@janchxxheonczsekk6412 - I know, right? And I do not understand it at all. The chinese still don't like Americans eventhough the USA freed China from Japan
Nước Mỹ hãy trách nhiệm chia sẻ dọn dẹp bom mìn , chất da cam và thẳng thắn xin lỗi vì chưa bồi thường chiến tranh .
@@janchxxheonczsekk6412 i am vietnamese and i agree with you
I am a Vietnamese American and Thailand is the one I choose.
You're not Vietnamese, you're an anti Vietnam. A lost person
Are you children of VNCH? VNCH is the dog of Usa.
If you call yourself American why such thing as "Asian Hate" happened your fellow American fellows beat and hate Americans?
🎉 Nice video. I hope in the future, my Small Travel Channel can grow like yours. Maby you have some tips? 😢

I kind of lost interest when you pronounced "pho" wrong , makes me think you actually never have been there to pronounce the most well known dish wrong.......
This is AI narration - not a real person who has been anywhere!
@@jesusbuddhacultcom8130 can watch are videos for real Vietnam and Thailand life !!
It's the AI voice. This isn't a human. It reads words as they sound in English, if you want it to sound correct you'd tell it to say 'fur' or 'phur'. Again, it's AI
Thailand if you can afford it, and Vietnam if you can't.
I like Cambodia better. Cambodia uses US dollars. Cambodian people are nicer. But Cambodia is still poor and roads are bad.
thai more gay
Vietnam less foreigners 😭🙏🏽
Vietnam more closet gay.
Vietnam reminds me of Thailand some 30+years ago.....If you are looking for cheap accommodations, cheap foods, cheap transportation. Goto Vietnam.Thailand is no longer considered cheap anymore.
The big cities really aren't much cheaper than anywhere in Thailand these days. My difference in daily spending was only 20%
Don't you know the GDP per capital of Thai in 90s was only ~$2000,? It is more acceptable if you say Vietnam is behind around 5 years =))) Have you ever tried to live in big cities of Vietnam like Hanoi or Saigon as a middle-income person? The cost of living between Vietnam & Thailand is around 25% , so that the gap year may be 5 years as i mentioned above
Mainly all services for tour between 2 country the same! But sex girls and drug thailan is best
Ở Việt Nam thì không cần tập viết chữ lại nữa 😂
Thailand Looks now like a Russian province 😢
Pay taxes when you live there!
vietnam
It is better in Thailand at the moment The food, the people, the politics, and the price. Vietnam is an over-price dumpster fire.
Vietnam is cheap. Hotels are often much cleaner and well maintained than Thailand. Alcohol is cheaper. Not sure what you're talking about it being over-priced, it's one of the best value places in the world
@@christopherpekel6096 u need to get your facts straight buddy!
@@fishbait007 I live here buddy
@@christopherpekel6096 you are not the only one buddy!
@@fishbait007 I'm not going to argue your first point just the 'over-priced dumpster fire'. How? Did women not let you hit on them?
Too much words too little real content
Deserved dislike
But no Retirement Visa in Vietnam. I have a Retirement O Visa, good for one year. Im set!!!
That's great!
Feels like it was written by A.I.
- no cutting opinions here - just say Thai food is better please !
I used to think that also until I started to try a lot of dishes that westerners generally don't know. Different opinion now, I think Vietnamese is as good as Thai
As a Vietnamese, it’s a shame to admit Vietnam is still a third world slum country because of the indiscriminate littering by the people.
Your name is not Vietnamese, don't be a joke

@@rety5275 I believe that Vietnamese people trust Thai investors more than China.
Don't worry, Thai people manage their business fairly and definitely do not take advantage of their neighbors.
Let's invest to create jobs and income. We did not bring people to occupy land and settle like the Chinese.
Vietnamese and Chinese people share a lot of history together. They trust each other more than Thailand.
