How long are you planning this trip to take? And what kind of budget do you have?

Why do you want 6 though?! The four you’ve given are huge places!

Cambodia and Laos. Although, depending on your point of view and how you view military dictatorship, Burma rather than Laos.
Laos is a dirty shit hole

Laos, definitely, for me. I can't understand why I would want to do all that unless you have 6 month's though!

What time of the year?

I wouldn't try and visit all those places, let alone add on another two, in less than 'weeks on end'.

I would probably forget China, Thailand and Vietnam and go to Japan for 2 to 3 weeks, perhaps stopping over in Singapore for a few days one way. So that alone could be the best part of a month.

It very much depends on time of year, how much time you’ve got and your interests.

If I was doing 6 I would fly to Japan. Then fly to China, cross into Laos, cross to Vietnam, then Cambodia and Thailand.
i would agree though, I would want at least 3 months to do it justice!
