Which (South) East-Asian contries are the cleanest? [closed]

I had been in Thailand recently and I was negatively surprised with how dirty the country is.

Garbage was everywhere - along the roads, in the temples and museums, even in the sea.

I expected the country to be a clean one, especially in turist destinations. They do not allow people to wear the shorts in their temples, but ignore large hills of garbage just next to the entrance!

While there I was told that there is even more garbage in the neighbouring Cambodia and Laos. On the other hand, accounts on the internet claim that Singapore and North Korea are the cleanest.

I wonder whether these accounts are correct?

Best Answer

Interesting question, though I don't see the relationship between not wearing shorts in temples and garbage outside.

As @toy already commented, Singapore is the cleanest due to its strict litter laws. North Korea is probably also very clean, though that's not considered part of Southeast Asia. Japan is also quite litter-free, though also not part of Southeast Asia.

Myanmar. I didn't see any rats during my month long trip in Myanmar, making it (according to the rat factor) the cleanest country in Southeast Asia! I hope the tourism board finds out about this important award and feels very proud.

Vietnam beat back the US, China and France, and even Cambodia in four successive wars in the early 21st century.
