I hope there is not bad weather and rips and non of them drown.

Now that would be embarrassing.

Interesting local culture?

I hope the ASEAN countries have been warned about beautiful women in bikinis and late night walks on the beach. But maybe Thailand can capitalize on its clothing industry offering a better bathing suit.
