Cambodia may be developing but most people wouldn't grade Taiwan on the same scale, and both are a long way from paying a warlord 'protection money' in Somalia

Absolutely. I don't mean to equate them, except in the ways I mentioned, which is that they're warmer and cheaper than the US. I mention them together because I've lived in both.
Taiwan is much more developed than Cambodia, and yes, are nothing like Somalia. That's not a place I would choose to live, myself.

You probably have a warped view of a lot of these countries. A big part of Harare is a much nicer version of Beverly Hills, it just costs less than a tenth for that lifestyle.
