Drug-using Tourists Not Welcome On Samui

[LaoPo]

have a walk around or after sunset along Chaweng Beach - many peddlers... many!

About 20 years ago (first time ever on Samui) I staid in "Arabian Bungalows" (not existing anymore, sold to another operation) on Chaweng.

The son of the (Samui born) owner was a kind of (tall!) handsome, friendly and nice, guy who had a few "friends" around him the whole day. They played guitar and enjoyed themselves all day long; the words working and labour were not in their vocabulary. The son had several babies with Farang girls in various EU countries....he showed me the pictures

On several occasions they showed me top quality Grass/Marijuana they harvested themselves; all wrapped up in an ordinary newspaper; quite some quantities, back in those days.

I was offered weed/grass on several occasions on Samui, on several beaches, indeed mostly after sunset.

So, it's still going on......the authorities shouldn't blame the tourists who use a joint once in a while. The Yaba problem is a much bigger kind of headache to Thailand
