I’ve never lived in Thailand but I have been vacationing here for the past 27 years or so on a yearly basis. The number of altercations I’ve had I can count on one hand and all of them have been with other foreigners.
On my first trip to Thailand I decided that I would not drive or ride a motorcycle on the roads because I felt it was not safe to do so. Over the years I have discovered that being a pedestrian is just as dangerous.
Yeah, because people in go go bars go there specifically to look at fat, drunk shirtless guys getting up on stage and dancing. That Schtick never gets old.
