So, we've seen several threads of people going back and forth about how great and horrible LOS is and how some just want to get out, while others just want to get back... Let's have a neutral go at it from the start based on the facts, at least what is available.

So browsing around in search of statistics as to complete a blog (which can be accessed via me profile), I came across NationMaster.com, one of the most in depth statistics websites I have yet seen, including everything from crime to economics, demographics, and everything in between ranking countries ...pretty cool for statistic freaks...

So this is where Thailand ranks at the bottom

And this is where Thailand ranks at the Top

So have a look, and lets see what serious and goofy conclusions will be germinated from such stats.

For example,

Thailand is the best place to live if you're a rice farmer

Thailand is the worst place to live if you're a corn farmer

I know, I'm drained from statistic analyzing at this hour...

a lot of detailed statistics, shame "Data from most recent available between the period 1983 to 2000"
