I agreed, comming here for many years. But this year would be my last in Chiang Mai or maybe even in Thailand. Since 10 years I see that Thai are more and more focused only on money and trying to scam and cheat tourists as much as they can. Yesterday my gf and I was robbed here at the place where tuktuk driver took us to continue party when everything was closed. Place called Star Karaoke. They charged us 10.000 Bhat for two beer and when we refused to pay, they slapped my friend and they took all his money away (3000Bhat). We came to police station but because we had no evidence (of course they didn't give us a bill for beating) police didn't treat us seriously. From the goodman translator on the police station I get information that everyday someone is coming to them because of this place but police will not do anything cause the owner of this place is policeman (sick!). More and more I see this place corupted and focused only on money. Thats why it was my last time here ever.
I was wrong... the tourists ARE gone!
in Chiang Mai
