farangnomore

True, but a few disgruntled farangs won't make any difference. It's the fresh, naive tourists that they are after and those farangs, enchanted with Thainess, will happily pay 10x rip off price (just like I used to do). Thais know what they are doing. They are among the best in the world.

Srisuwan, what a paper tiger. He should sue Thai government for allowing "dirty farangs" to even enter the kingdom.

More so than westerners with the idea of "freedom and democracy?"

As a bad of a deal as it may be, they (people in charge) do not expect farangs who "know too much" to bring in more money. They know there are new suckers to be fooled. It worked before, why wouldn't it work now? For every disenchanted farang who leaves the land of broken dreams, there will be 10 new suckers happy to invest 40 MB to buy one rai of mosquito infested swamp to live happily ever after with his bar girl (she was forced into prostitution to pay off her parents' debts anyway).

6.5 mil people died, so what? Do you know what normal death rate worldwide is? About 60 mil, so it's a 10% higher than normal. https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/number-of-deaths-per-year
