Well, that is Thai culture sum into one sentence. What they say is not always what they do.

Happy new year to you too na bro

I think the male to female ratio plays a part. Some Women are willingly to accept half a man than no man.

As for man, it's hundred years of indoctrination. It's widely acceptable in their culture, just make sure you keep it low profile.

I guessed its hard to keep in low profile. As normally gik, both parties knew about their status, and they will gladly tell their friends, "that's my gik"

It really depends who we talking about, most normal thai guy will have no qualms boasting their "hit list" but people who are in certain social circle have to keep it low profile for business purposes or face reason.

As the hokkien saying goes " Tiam gao gah si lang"

On the topic of Pattaya being the playground for criminals, our fellow singaporeans make sure we are not left behind.

There was another case of credit card fraud by Singaporean in Ubon Ratchathani. Guy was in late 20s or at most early 30s.

Bro, i am not surprised even sillyporeans are going against the law because anyone can get addicted wif wad patts can offer. Its simply my haven! But lucky i can live like a cheapskate and poor fella there lol...

However, u cant just brand patts as de only place u will see crimes, any part of LOS is possible. But i cant disagree patts crime rate veri high, but its sin city sinkies, that is de price to pay sometimes...

I'd like to recommend you bros a particular website known as "stickman's bangkok" for an in-depth insight into Thai culture and way of living from a New Zealander's point of view. I must say that i've spent hours reading the readers' submissions section which is updated on a daily basis.

I am not here to debate on your choice of city. I believe every city has it's pros and cons. Each to its own Just thought it would be an interesting article to share since we on this topic.

As you say living, not enjoying.

I believe many people have read that website, i am one of them. But view points are very subjective, everyone are entitled their own,

There are some things that Caucasian might not be able to relate to as much as we Asians can relate to the thais due to cultural similarities.

The stories on their website are tragic, whinny, ironic and funny but sadly true sometimes. Everyone has their own take on Thailand and i guess why it's one of the amazing place to live in.

Lol, if you wanna work or run ur business in LOS while living there, then Patts is not tt suitable la IMO. But if u are doing well in sg, i dun see why u will move to LOS to work or wad. Usually ppl go patts long term is retirement coz alreadi 50 plus liao by the time so betta enjoy life....
