Interesting that neither Laos or Burma or on the list. I quite like Laos, but I haven't been to Burma in many years and can't make a judgment.

I would not recommend any of these destinations to friends.
Those that say Vietnam treat tourist with respect, no scams etc...Ha! are you kidding! When I was in Vietnam VungTao, I decided to walk back to my hotel from one of the eateries. I was with a buddy and we got harassed at least 10 times by scammers and pimps on motorbikes on the way back. At times I felt very unsecure. Hotels keep your passport too (as required by law, 2001). On a cruise ship that stopped for a day, theives stole the ships morring ropes (inside job I suspect). Nice beaches if you can look past all rubbish.Discussion 3 : 12 Jul 2012 at 20.513
Go to Viet Nam! They don't look at you as a walking ATM machine, won't scam you and have many beautiful beaches that are safe and lower cost hotels. May I suggest Halong Bay, Sapa, and Da Lat. Also check out Danang, Hoi An, and Hue.

Vietnamese still treat the tourist with respect.

Thai friends or foreign friends? For foreign friends, I'd say spend it in Thailand!
