    That's what's great about it, easy to find parking!  But not so good for vendors. 

    Can park inside....dont have to worry about the guy handing you the parking card!  Drive up service!  I suggest the massage shop! ????

    But you''re not a tourist, and you're used to living in a 3rd world country and mixing with 3rd world people.

    Western tourists generally aren't prepared to do that.

     

    Nobody could have predicted foreign tourists would be gone forever 18 months ago.

    (Without it being the end of the world as we know it)

    After over a decade in LOS I always expect the worst but hope for the best......heres to hoping some thais have learned some real life lessons, as no one can control the future.

     

    The Golden Goose will not lay eggs forever, or dont put all your eggs in one basket......life lessons-....as they say in Love and War..be prepared....adapt to the waves or drown under them

    They need to mix the sand with cement, that will stop it washing away ????

    regards Worgeordie

    Reminds me of the Laos border-Vientiane--where you could get a Beer Lao and dinner on mekong on a bamboo outdoor cafe...now a slab of cement and yet another walking street...sigh

     

    I recall the Mekong flooding the border town a decade ago as folks ate their pigs that drowned..etc...  really lost its ambiance after they rebuilt--errr laid the cement....anyhoo...

    1. If you've rented a premises for 80k/month in a tourist street, selling food to locals wanting to pay 30-40bht/plate ain't gonna work.

    2. As a 3* tourist I don't want to eat in a place that caters to 3rd world people, or sit next to them either, or poop myself to death after the experience.

    3. I avoid bars full of Thai guys (unless they're dressed as women), they get drunk and they pull out guns.

    One reaps what they sow...the golden goose will only lay so many eggs......rent close to both locals and tourists and choose your shops wisely-  I eat with local and street food daily...

     

    Same as by CMU business is great when school is in session maybe not so much on break....location location location...
