newnative Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 9 hours ago, johnnybangkok said: It's you. If you went to any council estate in Glasgow for example (my home town), you would be forgiven for thinking that every Glaswegian is an alcoholic, violent low-life who would rather head-butt you than say hello, when of course there are many areas of Glasgow where the vast majority of Glaswegians are quite the opposite. Location, surroundings, environment have a tendency to dictate the calibre of person you meet, so if you hang out in low-life areas, don't be surprised to bump into a few low-life's. 'Good expats' don't hang out in these places. We go to nice bars and nice restaurants and stay well clear of the underbelly of Thailand for exactly this reason. You just need to widen your sphere of influence and circle of friends and understand that out of the many millions of ex-pats here in Thailand, the VAST majority are normal, hard-working guys who don't 'come off as con men/wrong uns' but good guys who are enjoying everything Thailand has to offer. However I doubt you will take this advice as you seem to revel in putting Thai's down and commenting on matters such as this. You've mentioned in a previous post that you are looking to leave Thailand. I think that's a good idea for you. Pretty much sums it up. Thank you.

I've never understood why some people tar a whole sub-set of people simply by the VERY few they have personally met. Thailand is what you make of it. If you go around looking for negativity then you will most certainly find it and if you choose to hang out in sleezy bars, you'll definately meet some sleezy people. There are plenty of nice places in Thailand to hang out IF you choose to look. Sadly I think the OP has convinced himself that the problem is Thailand and not him personally as has been evident in his many, many mostly negative comments (including this one) on Thailand. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they all drive cars and motorcycles! That is what bothers me. See so many leaving the bars at 4-5 pm after drinking since 1pm or worse at night on Soi Buakhao . WTF, why not take a baht bus or walk it off a little? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another good test is if their knuckles are dragging on the ground. Funnily enough, some of the nicest blokes are the ones that look as though they got dressed in the dark and are a walking fashion crime. They are just the ones with no self respect, walking unshaven into Tesco's or the IO dressed in a string vest and shorts wearing flip flops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a retired expat, cannot think of a better way to spend my time and money than to help out as many hard working Thai entrepreneurs as possible . Can anyone tell me a better way to spend time and money? Only have 45000 Baht per month pension, so travelling and staying in hotels is beyond my means.
