    I've been here almost one year and it is as safe as any city can be. No muggings, strong arm robberies or major crime whatsoever. Thailand (Buddha culture) is completely different from Western disrespect which is the main reason I left the US.

      BANGKOK, Oct 6 (Reuters) - A former policeman killed 34 people including 22 children in a gun rampage at a daycare centre in eastern Thailand on Thursday, later shooting dead his wife and child at their home before turning his weapon on himself, police said.

      Thailand now has the largest wealth gap in the world, according to a recent report by Credit Suisse. The Global Wealth Report and Databook, published in December 2018, showed that the richest 1% in Thailand now controls almost 67% of the country’s wealth.

      Corruption is pervasive in Thailand's police force and presents businesses with high risks. Almost four out of five Thai believe most or all of the police to be corrupt (GCB 2017). The security apparatus has a reputation of being the most corrupt institution in the country, partly due to its entanglement in politics and an entrenched patronage system (The Guardian, Nov. 2014). Police impunity is also reported to be a problem

      Prostitution in Thailand is illegal.[1][2] However, due to police corruption and an economic reliance on prostitution dating back to the Vietnam War, it remains a significant presence in the country.[3][4] It results from poverty, low levels of education and a lack of employment in rural areas. Prostitutes mostly come from the northeastern (Isan) region of Thailand, from ethnic minorities or from neighbouring countries, especially Cambodia, Myanmar, and Laos.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] UNAIDS in 2019 estimated the total population of sex workers in Thailand to be 43,000.[16]

    Yes there is a light life option in Pattaya but there are lots of other things to do too. There is an amazing beach, santuary of truth, buddah statues, golfing, sea doo, boating, there is a 10 km bicycle track that you can rent bicycles, amazing night markets, dance clubs, billiards, beer bars, world class shopping centers, and yes the other thing. But I lived in Pattaya for 4 years teaching English. I love it there and it drives me insane when people think of Pattaya and think of only the obvious thing you mentioned before, I am glad you decided to give it a chance and if you ask anyone living there they could tell you a lot of amazing places.

    You know, the owner of Nong Nooch Tropical Garden had won the garden competition in RHS Chelsea Flower Show for many years. Pattaya is in Chonburi which is the big city. You can have many activities here. Not just only weed, a-g-go, night life, beaches, islands and sea but also temples, national zoo, biking in the nature along the road at Bang Phra Reservoir, etc. So, you have seen many dinosaurs at garden because there are the place for families and kids as well.

You guys used to live the cheaper life which we enjoyed watching it seems you are making More money via UA-cam And why would you go to a Indian restaraunt when you are in Thailand. The food looked awful . Durian does smell, but is a delicious fresh fruit. Don't bother with dried.
