Foreign visitors to xxxxxxxx soon tire of paying over the mark-up for everything

Foreigners when asked whether such negative experiences would influence their decision to return to xxxxxx, they said undoubtedly it would.

Whilst entering Chumphon National park today the guy letting us in asked my wife what farang thought about the price there, Thai 100 farang 200 baht, I said it was ok but not more than this sort of price discrepency although as we are "properley" married ie certificate not "party" type wedding I think it should be the same. He then told us he had been to China and they charge Thais a lot more there than the local Chinese so now he knows how we feel about this overcharging.

Sounds like mumbo-jumbo to me. This can be said about any country and if it is not about Thailand, why is it posted here.

Perhaps in the travel forum? But I really don't think derogatory articles about countries are much help. Surely Vietnam has other things going for it and anyone who has lived outside of their own country knows that overpricing exists.

My answer to the question in the thread title is. Vietnam

Why? Are there people who thought two-tier pricing was invented in Thailand?

Come to think of it, was anything invented in Thailand?

How about His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej

Bhumibol is the only Thai monarch —and possibly the only monarch in the world, to hold a patent; obtaining one in 1993 for a waste water aerator named "Chai Pattana" and several patents on rainmaking since 1955: the "sandwich" rainmaking patent in 1999 and lately the "supersandwich" patent in 2003 - Wikipedia

Whoaa, It's a Hub of ...... nah, I forget

Naka.

Is this going to be a complaint about double pricing in Thailand or a complaint about double pricing in Vietnam? If Vietnam then it rightly belongs in the SE Asia forum.
