How the ultra wealthy travel in Bangkok

[@gwhain3408]

Been living there for 20 years, and I love it. Unbeatable on so many levels…

[@bluemagic3800]

I've been to Japan and Thailand I have to say they are quite similar in politeness and shyness. You can sense the people are nice and friendly and also polite and respectful at the same time. I'd say the Japanese are 1st in politeness and Thai 2nd.

[@gyanprakash7445]

Except tuktuk and taxis. Those always look to scam you.

Thailand’s air pollution is a huge red flag for any visitor right now, especially if you’re heading to a major city like Bangkok. The air quality is so bad that it’s classified as dangerous on a regular basis, with PM2.5 levels often sky-high.

[@oliviachenault2212]

The Siam hotel is amazing! I did a daycation there last year! Nick the GM was so welcoming!

[@ruutshinoda]

ขอบคุณจากคน Bangkok ❤

[@HS-PGX]

Iconsiam… also known as my local shopping mall. Mainly because it’s literally the closest shopping mall by distance from my house! It’s amazing but can get super crowded and on occasion it runs out of parking space. Annoying (and people in Thailand don’t really take public transport which is a big shame) Lovely views and I took a friend here once and he was so amazed by it.

[@frrejnc]

Luxury can be so affordable here, really amazing, best city in the world

[@chyira8077]

Love Bangkok, Love this video! You should do an updated version of this. None of these places are new there is so much more amazing luxury here!

[@aykutyurduseven6077]

Thanks for the video. After how to survive with 1$ a day in Bangkok videos on youtube, maybe with this video people understand how luxury you can find in Bangkok as well.

[@PCVP4729]

Absolutely. Anytime I see some dumb westerner talk about something being "too expensive for Bangkok" I facepalm. These people have no understanding about the concept of levels and diversity of experiences. The Hangover has done irreversible damage to its reputation.

I live in an older condo in Pattaya Thailand (a 5-minute scooter ride to the beach). It is all concrete, so the rooms are quiet (I have a video of the condo). I am on the ninth floor, so the sunsets are great, and I do not have much trouble with mosquitoes or road noise. We have a large pool with a slide. There is a restaurant by the pool; most meals are 3-7 dollars. My rent is $207/month. I have a new wall unit A/C, that I run 24/7 and my electric bill is $30/month. My room is 270 square feet or 30 square meters. It has plenty of room for a single guy. I have no plans to move back to the States.

At 8:42 she said her company offers experiences that money cannot buy, and in the next sentence, she said the minimum spending to get those experiences is $100,000. I don't understand posh rich people. :")

[@camperstar6stringer]

Buy a bicycle and travel around Bangkok and you will have the world's remembering experience in your lifetime take 30 days and just do it you'll go from the wealthiest places in Bangkok to where even if they have one or two baht . The poor will thank you graciously I know I do it everyday here in Bangkok.

Agree! 😂😂😂 Plus, Singapore is super boring. But thanks to its government, the marketing genius, that managed to make people see Singapore otherwise. “Perception” is far more important than reality, indeed! The genius government knows the rule!

Lo ve icon siam been many times water fall in the middle of the restaurant is brilliant luxury shopping with it tacky gold and personal shoppers isn't needed spoils a very nice shopping mall

[@MaxRunyon]

The video highlights several key aspects of Bangkok's luxury tourism scene: Exclusive Accommodations: The video showcases two ultra-luxury hotels: the Sayan, a heritage-style escape, and the Capella Bangkok, a modern riverside retreat. Both offer world-class amenities, personalized service, and stunning design. Fine Dining: Bangkok boasts a thriving culinary scene, with numerous Michelin-starred restaurants. The video features Saan, a restaurant known for its innovative take on Southern Thai cuisine. High-End Shopping: Iconsiam, a massive luxury shopping complex, is a must-visit for discerning shoppers. The mall houses a variety of high-end brands and offers exclusive services for VIP customers. Luxury River Cruises: The Chao Phraya River is a popular destination for luxury river cruises. The video highlights Loy River Cruises, which offers all-inclusive three-day trips to Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of Thailand.

Been to Thailand. Definitely don't go to Siam Hotel. Such a tourist trap ripoff. Unless you plan to spend your entire trip in the hotel, you can find plenty of other great 5 star options for less than $100 a night. I went to Thailand to explore, not to sit in a fancy hotel with a courtyard or a gym with a boxing ring. One of the places I visited was Novotel Siam Square. Its a 4 star and nothing super fancy, but it was a nice room. Right next to BTS station, Centralworld, Siam Paragon, and right on Siam Square where there's a lot of great food and shopping to do.

[@saulgoodman2018]

Easy. By plane.

[@long2181998]

Is (Siam) pronounced See-Yam or Sai-Am? Whenever I visited Thailand I've heart See-Yam but this video and some other pages use Sai-Am.

[@stevenishere94]

Sa-Yam is the actual Thai pronunciation of this word. But of course Sai-Am is also widely acknowledged since most locals are aware of how the word is pronounced by visitors. I hope that helps!

[@alvinkhoo]

sar yarm is the way thais pronounce

[@sochettrachou6230]

In China, some call Hsien whereas Cambodia call Siem

[@MiddleMaX]

Sayaam but pronounce the sa like Stevens... so Syaam

[@mykalhenry]

The dude announcing the skytrain used to say see-yam, see-yam.

[@tomp888]

Bangkok as a city offers so much more than this tacky opulence. It's sad that this was chosen as the focus for a piece by CNBC instead of other aspects of the city that are far more representative of local culture. Besides, it's quite an unbecoming obsession with other people's wealth

[@ryanwilliamson9578]

There's a million videos out there about temples, tuk-tuks and 1 dollar street food and I've seen many of them, but still enjoyed seeing this aspect of Bangkok as well. Don't see the big deal.

[@munystore]

You should seriously think twice before visiting Thailand, especially given the country’s ongoing issues with child sex trafficking. Despite efforts to combat this horrific crime, many vulnerable children are still being exploited, often coerced into prostitution or misled by traffickers. The nightlife scene can further perpetuate these issues, glamorizing exploitation and blurring the lines between consensual activities and illegal practices.

[@KK-xq2mc]

Don't watch too many dramas.

[@JOJO2023s]

​@KK-xq2mc No, it is a true story.

[@Nvetvoranich]

While we recognize that human trafficking is a serious global concern, it’s important to note that Thailand has taken substantial steps to address these issues. In recent years, the Thai government has intensified its efforts, with a 2023 report noting a 20% increase in trafficking-related arrests and over 1,500 victims rescued last year alone. The government has also partnered with international organizations to strengthen protections, enforce stricter laws, and increase awareness within communities. Thailand is committed to creating a safer environment for both its citizens and visitors. While the government continues to address these challenges, millions of tourists visit Thailand each year and experience its rich culture and hospitality safely. Negative stereotypes often overlook Thailand’s proactive efforts to combat this issue and the support it has garnered from global partners.

[@munystore]

@@Nvetvoranich A 20% increase doesn't mean it's decline, there are more and more of that crime involved with police and politician that allows this to happens.
