Yes, agree.
Working Thailand is OK If you can work for a low salary that's fine but I wouldn't survive.
I work offshore, on a 28/28 day rotation, returning to Thailand every month away, I get paid US$, my company pays my taxes.
There's not much offshore drilling in Thailand, I worked offshore Songkla for a few years earning US$ which was acceptable.
Most foreigners working in Thailand must be doing it tough, low salary, not being able to enjoy themselves going away, shopping, eating nice restaurants etc. buying properties or vehicles, like I said, not for me.
