This topic has been done to death , life is what you make it.

That throw away line is nowhere near accurate.

Dangers in life come mostly from others.

In Thailand, on the roads at least, life is very much in danger from others - drunks, idiotic drivers, etc.

Clearly, the ability to type does not come with a brain.

Your list North of the troubled areas is total B.S.

Who hired you to slag on this nice nation?

Isaan, that is to say the 'real' Thailand. In a small village far away from the bars. Did I mention a good wife?

Yes you did and I'd like to know how you are reading my thoughts.

No place is "free from" the things you list, but there are many places that come much closer than Thailand, which is not even in the running.

Singapore; Malta; Tahiti; and the winner ….Japan.

What? not been to Gibraltar then?

I never thought the statement, life is what you make it, a high teaching.

I stand corrected. Taking responsibility for one's life, is a high teaching.

Just dont go to Koh Tao

Yes it is, as long as your not driving or riding a motorbike.

Try the garza strip in bristol also know as lawarnce weston

" There's no place like home "

Excuse me?

What country are you talking about, and/ or what drugs are you on?

farangs? I think not. So where else? Is there anywhere else you would propose? Free from threats of starvation, militarised police, war and drug wars, suffocating religious threats, overpopulation, drought etc

Since the coup, the Military are the police.

There is constant fighting between illegal drug factions.

Ever try to vacation in the opium triangle up north?

There is random drug testing for no reasonable cause.

There has been a war going on in the south of Thailand for years.

Muslim militants with car bombs, just las week

Thailand is in a very serious drought right now!

You may be correct on overpopulation...but I a not sure about that one.

Farang tourists murdered.

Many very suspicious "suicides" of farangs. " He hung himself, with his hands tied behind his back"

Thailand is one of the more dangerous places to be.

Should I mention traffic fatalities ....

and HIV?

Where have you been?

OUt back Australia,i went one week camping naked on the banks of the Paroo river,then a couple of guys from Sydney turned up in their caravan,ruined it,though i must admit the tea and crumpets they made in their van were refreshing,of course i had donned a thong [g string] by that time.

Of course, I disagree with you. But I would never CHOOSE to live in a place that I thought was that dangerous. I mean, you would have to be a complete moron to CHOOSE to live in such a place. Why would one put his own safety at such a risk if given a choice? And put his family at risk? One would have to be an incredibly irresponsible, brain-dead ignoramus of the highest order to CHOOSE to live in such a place.

By the way, willy, you don't live in Thailand, do you?

Well; clearly not if you are a teacher living in Pattani, Yala, Narathiwat, or a drug dealer in Klong Toey.Thais may be having some problems with Martial Law and the 'Security State' here; but farangs? I think not. So where else? Is there anywhere else you would propose? Free from threats of starvation, militarised police, war and drug wars, suffocating religious threats, overpopulation, drought etc.?

I agree at the moment-----

In Poon Tang

I have a large part renovated Cortijo in Andalucia for only 80,000 euros , fancy that ?

I spent all of January 2015 in Thailand with my fiancé. We were out and about all the time in Surat Thani, Hua Hin, Krabi, Ao Nang. I scarcely saw any police and certainly did not see any crime.

I live in Toronto, Canada at this time which is recognised as one of the safest cities in the world. There are police everywhere yet we still have lots of crime ranging from petty to major.

I'm sure that there are many areas of Thailand that are very safe, such as the ones I have just mentioned.

I never found the need to even give our safety a second thought.

You evil fascist...at least send them to Inverness.

Not safe due to "Nessy"

Try Thurso

Saudi ?

I hope and pray that I never have to visit that God forsaken land. The only thing that might compel me to visit a land ruled by Wahhabism might be the promise of a fortune. Even then, it would have to be guaranteed, and paid in advance. LOL. I consider Saidi to be number one terrorist nation on earth, as their ruling family continues to support the extremist schools, and Wahhabism is perhaps the most extremist "faith" on the planet.

I saw a safe and civilized place once but i can't remember where that was now.

its safe, i am from belfast

East Asia in general has become the most civil society on earth, that includes Japan,China, Korea, and SE Asia, there is that conflict in the deep south here in Thailand, but it is contained there and the militants never bring their war outside the 3 provinces down there, the multicultural west has become wracked by inner-city violence like in America, and racial conflict in europe, Africa and India - poverty, famine and overpopulation.. central and South America-crime and violence, like inner city USA on steroids.. we're pretty lucky to get to live here imo.
