It is odd that four, relatively small SEAsian countries that touch each other with only rivers for boundaries have developed distinctly different small vehicles.
This is the classic Thai tuktuk noisy, loud polluting.
It has slightly different cabs, depending on usage (people or freight) but it is basically a one-piece vehicle for city or very short distances
This is the classic Myanmar vehicle in the country, a diesel donkey that pulls a wagon of different types.
There is a similar but slightly different vehicle in Laos.
while in Cambodia, everything seems to be a motorcycle pulling a cab of some sort.
And in all the SEAsian countries there is the small truck with a passenger cabin , capacity ∞
To get some idea of how the traveler moves around look at The Man in Seat Sixty-One - the train travel guide... , a site that has train and bus tickets for the entire world.
