Fullstop Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I don't think he'll have as much luck in the Philippines, Manila especially has many more homeless and disabled beggars than Thailand, and I don't think they'll appreciate competition from a foreigner What are they going to do? Beat him to death with their bamboo walking sticks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beat him to death with their bamboo walking sticks? Quite possibly yes, I've lived in the Philippines and Thailand, and Manila especially is a lot more dangerous than Bangkok, for a start, as I said there are a lot more homeless. Manila also has the highest rate of crystal meth addiction, per capita, in the world and has the highest rate of gun crime in South East Asia, I lived in Manila for a year and witnessed two people being shot at. There are also far fewer foreigners, and it's a poorer country, so they are less likely to be tolerant towards him. If he does make any money from begging there, I'm pretty certain he'll be parted with it as quickly as he received it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
