100 RMB = 63,809 Cambodian Riels .

100 RMB = 16.09 U.S. dollars. You can hardly buy anything good. They usually settle in U.S. dollars. A good Western meal costs about 25 U.S. dollars, and a Marlboro costs 1.25 U.S. dollars. The local basic salary is 8 US dollars. It is difficult to survive on 80 US dollars in China. Therefore, Cambodia uses a tip system to increase income. Even the police have to collect tips. You will know when you enter the country. Civil servants will ask you to collect tips directly.

Cambodia is poor in materials and almost all goods are imported. The average price is twice that of China. The prices of some goods produced by Cambodia National Energy are similar to those in China. (Tissues, cola juice drinks, etc.). When it comes to renting a house in Phnom Penh, the average price for a good independent single room is around US$200-500. For meals, the lowest-end Cambodian snack bars are very cheap. You can have a bowl of noodles for one dollar. A meal in a relatively clean and hygienic restaurant costs about US$3-5, and a meal in a chain restaurant or a Chinese restaurant costs about US$10 or more per person.
