TheJoker12 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 It seems as though there are always more and more farang coming to Thailand despite all the claims on this forum that farang are fed up with Thailand and leaving any day. It also seems like the farang coming to Thailand are coming with less money than previously and with the intention of working low paying jobs or doing whatever they can to survive. You see more bus riding these days and the roads are filled with farang motorcyclists. What do we assert this rise in tourism numbers to? Bad western economies? Has the word spread about Thailand's prestige that has attracted more and more farang to Thailand? What effect will this have on the farang already living here? Will it hurt our very good reputation with the Thai people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Conners Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) "and the roads are filled with farang motorcyclists. " What's riding a motorbike got to do with how much money you have? I have a nice car yet I prefer to use my bike most of the time to not get stuck in traffic. Don't make assumptions.
