Well since I cannot reach my final piont of have to walk to either end of Bangla shouldn't pay less... Yep, and I got the price too. Spat back in thai...cqan make the price lower, I don't want. 80 baht? OK was the response everytime.

Don't Pay <{POST_SNAPBACK}> This is possible to do and if everybody played there part im confident that we would get there, or at least see a reduction ! Firstly when after you ask for a price purposly make it obvious that you prefer a motorbike Taxi, let the driver actually see you as you walk over to a motorbike ! Of cousre be suttle, dont walk away sticking 2 fingers up at him !! People say well what is the alternative, simple MOTORBIKES !!! Do you really need a Tuk tuk from Bangla to Seaparl ? Why cant you walk ? Everybody should go out of there way to tarnish them as much as possible, I dont mean walk down rath-u-thit road waving banners, just by simply spreading the word. Every tourist you speak to tell them, educate them ! Just say no !!
