Having lived there in 2010/2011 and not drinking, smoking or doing drugs, i enjoyed it thoroughly and have fond memories to this day. I did see a lot of westerners getting smashed and riding around drunk on their scooters and several dieing and I'd suggest a more likely outcome based on my observation.
I have lived in Thailand, The Philippines and Cambodia. I prefer The Philippines. I am back in Australia because I prefer the air here and have a house here I own. I was recently again in The Philippines and was looking at a condo in Makati, walking about Makati and it seems like many big cities in the world if that's your thing ? I "retired" at age 35. I won't be entitled to the Australian pension at 67 because I have too many assets, the public pension in Australia is means tested. Not all of us are on the bones of our arse.
I did spend some time in Laos last year and liked that as well.
Which is the actual issue to the writer(SNS viewers) of this article?
Those sleeping on the beach(not paying for hotel accommodation); not contributing local economy?
Or their litter bug habit?
