Re: Bangkok Field Report

Like what some bros mentioned. Cheonging and shopping in populare areas are still safe no matter what colour shirt your wore. Due to the political tension, the average Thais (taxi-drivers, stall holders, sales assistants, etc) are becoming less tolerant and easily agitated. If any bros got into any misunderstanding (over-charged on your "merchandise" or dishonest drivers) with the locals, do not agrue with them (no matter you speak thai or not). Past few weeks saw a few fights on the streets..pretty sure that they are tourist (hongkies or Jap). Play safe in BKK.
