Foreign Nationals Lose ฿300m in Pattaya Gold Scam
Some years ago I was reading something by a man who had been in prison in the UK. Whilst there he got talking to a fellow inmate who was jailed for a well-publicised fraud/con. The man said that his theory was that if someone isn't greedy they can't be conned, greed is always the hook that will catch them.

Thrill of Thai Nudist Resort Shocks Netizens
Not being into nudism myself, I have my own "Nudism test". Anyone can do it, but I am currently thinking of the UK version. On any day that you walk down the high street think to yourself "How many of my fellow shoppers would I like to see whilst they're nude." The answer that I come up with is always <1%. 😁

Thai English Proficiency Slips Further Down Global Rankings
On my numerous visits to Cambodia on visa runs it struck me how at street-level, tuk tuk drivers, waitresses etc, the level of English proficiency was better than it is in Thailand. I wonder if UNESCO or some such body had got involved in education in Cambodia and this was one of the results?

Thailand to Reconsider Cannabis Laws Amid Industry Concerns
In my whole lifetime I tried it 3 or 4 times. One positive thing that I will say about it is that it really helped me sleep.

Thailand to Reconsider Cannabis Laws Amid Industry Concerns
A pleasant feeling, but a very unpleasant smell. Quite recently a colleague complained that his neighbours were smoking it in their garden and the smoke/smell was wafting into his garden.

So, every town in Thailand is like Walking Street or Soi Cowboy then?

Foreigners rally against BBC's ‘Thailand: the dark side’ doc
As someone who spent 20 years in Thailand, firstly as an tourist, and then as an expat, my take on this is as follows. The vast majority of tourists who visit Thailand only ever see touristy Thailand. Touristy Thailand by it's nature is where many prostitutes, ladyboys etc congregate, giving what I think is a false impression of what Thailand is really like, for ordinary Thais with ordinary jobs. Many people who only spend a few weeks there have a false impression of what the country's really like.
