It's a lovely place with friendly people. I will never be able to distinguish the Khmer consonant sounds enough to understand or speak it, but English is common.
Unfortunately for fugitives, they do have extradition treaties.

also, i walked into a pharmacy and bought a round amoxicillin without the need for a prescription. i had a note from the doctor to make sure i had the right dosage. that cost me $4.
also, you can wear a t-shirt and shorts with sandals all year round. you can eat all you can fit inside your body for less than $10 a day ($3 if you eat local food). you can visit some of the world's largest and most amazing ruins as well as some of the world's last undeveloped paradise islands.
how many gorgeous beaches are in Sweden? ;)
The health care system in third world countries in Asia are fine for the basics, but you wouldn't want to go through something like emergency heart surgery there. ;)
Though, this depends on where you are actually located. There are a lot of areas in S.E. Asia which have become locations for medical tourism and I imagine you could get decent care in those places. You better have the money though. In the Philippines they won't let you leave the hospital until you have paid your fees. You often have to pay partially up-front as well. When I went to a hospital to treat a broken wrist, I had to go back through town in a bumpy (ouch!, ouch!, ouch!) pedicab to pull money from an ATM. Oh, and you can only pull out the equivalent of $230 / pay / card at the ATM's there. So, if your fees are higher than that, then you might need to stay multiple days just so that you can pull enough out of the ATM.
