Popular Post webledink33 Posted July 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2019 I grew up on a farm and learned many things.... Some I see happening in my later life now here living in Thailand. One thing I remember is my father telling me about the cows and the cow path. He said " Son, watch those cows and the way they walk on the path they make to the pond.. They follow the same path everyday and the path gets deeper and deeper as time goes on. In a few months it will be worn down from the smooth dirt surface and then they eventually will get down to the rocks when the dirt wears and washes away. Not one of those cows will ever step off to the side on the grass to avoid the rocks and try to make a new path. Then one day one will break its leg and fall down in the path. Then the other cows will have to walk around the cow and begin making a new path. Just keep watching them and you will see it happen. Tell me when the cow is down so we can get it and put it out of its misery and fill the freezer full." This is the exact thing happening here! Tourism is a major economic contributor to Thailand and they are slowly killing it with inaction and denial that things are getting bad here. Already other countries are reaping the benefits from the lack of understanding and inaction of the problems of Tourism and the changes in Immigration... 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All its missing is a miniature Thai punk sitting up front with a gun in his hand. That would make quite a good tourist trinket idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klauskunkel Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 It is perfectly safe to travel here as long as they don't use taxis, boats, buses, vans, motorcycles, and stay in their hotel rooms all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
