Philippines Ousted by Cambodia as the Friendliest Country in the World

According to the latest posting of Asean Urbanist in Face Book, Cambodia is now the most friendly country in the world. The Philippines has been demoted to number 2. During the past decade, I believe the Philippines has always been rated as the Number #1, I wonder why? If you know the reason let me know. 

But according to the travel.com Australia is their number 1 friendliest country in the world.

  • Australia tops the list as the world's friendliest country due to locals' laid-back attitude and willingness to help tourists. 
  •  Taiwan stands out as another one of the friendliest nations in the world due to locals' eagerness to assist despite language barriers. 
  •  The Netherlands, Finland, Greece, and Portugal are also recognized for their friendliness, welcoming cultures, and high quality of life.

Who is correct? That Depends from Person to Person based on their personal experiences during their travel or temporary residence in the country they voted as number 1. 

Another list by the travel.com  listed South Africa in their #1 list, followed by Vietnam and the Philippines was not even in their top ten.
