I've been here almost one year and it is as safe as any city can be. No muggings, strong arm robberies or major crime whatsoever. Thailand (Buddha culture) is completely different from Western disrespect which is the main reason I left the US.

BANGKOK, Oct 6 (Reuters) - A former policeman killed 34 people including 22 children in a gun rampage at a daycare centre in eastern Thailand on Thursday, later shooting dead his wife and child at their home before turning his weapon on himself, police said.

Thailand now has the largest wealth gap in the world, according to a recent report by Credit Suisse. The Global Wealth Report and Databook, published in December 2018, showed that the richest 1% in Thailand now controls almost 67% of the country’s wealth.

[@keninchicago]

Corruption is pervasive in Thailand's police force and presents businesses with high risks. Almost four out of five Thai believe most or all of the police to be corrupt (GCB 2017). The security apparatus has a reputation of being the most corrupt institution in the country, partly due to its entanglement in politics and an entrenched patronage system (The Guardian, Nov. 2014). Police impunity is also reported to be a problem

Prostitution in Thailand is illegal.[1][2] However, due to police corruption and an economic reliance on prostitution dating back to the Vietnam War, it remains a significant presence in the country.[3][4] It results from poverty, low levels of education and a lack of employment in rural areas. Prostitutes mostly come from the northeastern (Isan) region of Thailand, from ethnic minorities or from neighbouring countries, especially Cambodia, Myanmar, and Laos.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] UNAIDS in 2019 estimated the total population of sex workers in Thailand to be 43,000.[16]

Yes there is a light life option in Pattaya but there are lots of other things to do too. There is an amazing beach, santuary of truth, buddah statues, golfing, sea doo, boating, there is a 10 km bicycle track that you can rent bicycles, amazing night markets, dance clubs, billiards, beer bars, world class shopping centers, and yes the other thing. But I lived in Pattaya for 4 years teaching English. I love it there and it drives me insane when people think of Pattaya and think of only the obvious thing you mentioned before, I am glad you decided to give it a chance and if you ask anyone living there they could tell you a lot of amazing places.

[@ssniebelungen]

I'm a native Thai, now living in Bangkok. I had been in Pattaya for 6 full years, the city is fascinating with mixed cultures and safe that anyone can stay there. Love my time there a lot.

Thank you for sharing your experience and have a great and safe time traveling🫶🏼

[@นนทพันธ์ศรีอัครพงศ์]

You know, the owner of Nong Nooch Tropical Garden had won the garden competition in RHS Chelsea Flower Show for many years. Pattaya is in Chonburi which is the big city. You can have many activities here. Not just only weed, a-g-go, night life, beaches, islands and sea but also temples, national zoo, biking in the nature along the road at Bang Phra Reservoir, etc. So, you have seen many dinosaurs at garden because there are the place for families and kids as well.

[@camohd3765]

I really respect the fact that you two tried durian. You can’t say that you don’t like it until you try it. Bravo.

[@Julietnboyd1]

Loved seeing the ins and outs of various places with you two. Very informative!

[@salubriousplace23]

Also worth to visit is Jomtien, village next to Pattaya. We stayed there and found great food markets, nice beach and it is much quieter 👍 And I recommend going to see a really great temple of Big Buddha near the Pattaya sign 👍

[@motteitte9222]

I always stay in jomtien. Walking distance from pattaya but much more relaxed.

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

Claire, of the Rhett and Claire channel, is surprised that I take such an interest in their channel, however, people who present themselves ❤ endearingly ❤ attract interest and goodwill in equal positive measure. Plus, they also attract curiosity about their travels and travails, in equal measure. Hence, my questions, hey!

[@joelamoos5684]

Fellow Aussie here. Durian is not that bad haha. Fresh is better than dry. Actually it tastes great in ice cream, smoothie or bubble tea form. Try holding your breath before the first taste. It smells the worst when its freshly cut. You can buy it in pre cut packs.

[@RhettandClaire]

Cute introoooo😉😭😍❤️

[@สุทธิศักดิ์มธุรพงศากุล]

Jom tien beach , and Phratamnak hill is beautiful place ,too. And Khao cheechan mountain 😊

[@jfsantos33]

Pattaya is changing a lot... Curious to see that city in 10 years.

[@KittitachPrasertkul]

So I assumed you were staying at an Airbnb and the owner rented out which normally for long term leases hence property is private for residence only. That's why the security has been asked to check everyone coming in.

[@Mr.P..Acasonav]

yes i think thats the case. its pretty common to do that in complex condo area where security check whos coming in (they have to write report all the car that coming though the gate as well)

[@barbarawright8956]

My husband and I were in Pattaya City a year ago. My son and daughter in law live there. My daughter in law is Thai. We stay in Pattaya City for a week. We felt it was very safe. Yes, they have a lot of bars but we didn’t go in everyone. We are not that type of people. So don’t listen to everybody. Enjoy yourselves.

[@inThailand1987]

First of all, thank you on behalf of all Thai krub. Anyway don't expect too much from us. We are just a small and humble country. Not a "Big Guys" with lots of power hard or soft in the world. We have -- good and bad things, also good and bad people like every places. Expecting too much might leads to disappointment when things don't turn out as good as we expected although they might be OK in their own way.🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭

[@VeteranxxxINF]

I have lived in several countries and rate Thailand as the best. The scenery, the food and the people is the best. Thai people are friendly, RESPECTFUL, non violent and always helpful. I never want to return to the west with its crazy politics, disrespectful attitude, violence and greed

[@dianaludwig925]

Hey guys! Fabulous video! I totally laughed out loud when you tried the Durian fruit. It reminded me of another you tube couple that tried it and had basically the same reaction, although they didn't try the dried version! Wishing you both the best! Take care.

[@marcp108]

The rooftop bar looked lovely. Nice to see the other, more positive side of Pattaya.

[@yolandagermishuys5686]

[@joelamoos5684]

I've been to Thailand 5 times. Pattaya was always my favorite. I use to get so drunk and travel by myself and I was always okay. Truth be told, the only place I ever got scammed/robbbed was in Chiang Mai which is meant to be the safest... The best thing I can say about Thailand is that it is what ever you make it. If you want seedy, you can have seedy in Pattaya and Phuket or if you want luxury you can have it. There is something for anyone in all parts of Thailand. Bangkok can be seedy to, depending on where you visit. If you go to Bangkok, Phuket or Pattaya just wanting to relax, you can 100% do that. Your holiday will be what ever you make it. Pattaya is definitely more affordable than a lot of the other tourist destinations and has a lot to offer there with plenty of options for everything.

[@YaiJino]

I am happy when i watch your clip.❤❤❤❤❤

[@kiddynina6246]

You have to try fried durian. Thai people like fried durian. It's taste like potato chip. crispy , a little bit sweet and salty. ทุเรียนทอด (turian todd)

[@theHeath]

Pattaya has something for everyone. Between Jomtien/Pattaya its amazing and so cheap. Best bang for your buck in Thailand!

[@nbdholakia]

The sweet dish in Indian restaurant is called Gulab Jambu and is made from milk solids

You two should try HuaHin. A Bit sleepy but nice markets beaches etc. I’m here now.

You should stay in the south or north, not Central Pattaya. South - Jomtien Beach, north - Nakluea. Further south, Na Jomtiem is quiet.

With durian, you want to try the durian crisps or chips. I promise you they are great. They don't smell at all bad. I personally really dislike all other durian products including freeze dried durian, durian ice-cream, jam etc, don't touch those. The fresh fruit I can eat but am not super fond.

It’s like saying Soho in London represents the whole of London, of course it doesn’t, even most streets in Soho are certainly not seedy. Nothing like it was in the 1970’80’s. This applies to Pattaya as well!

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

The dessert ball you were given was a gulab jamun. It is verrrry sweet because Indians have a verrrry sweet tooth.

Dude PATTAYA is the redlight capital of Thailand, you knew that obviously before visiting. Every country has its seedy district.

[@nickmondo222]

I thought that initially also. And yes, it still is the seedy capital of Thailand, but having lived on the East Side of Pattay for 6 months, I can say that the seedy stuff is surrounded by absolute beauty. A great place to live.

[@brin57]

Constantly amazes me that so many people think that a city of that size and diversity is just one big seedy red-light district. It has way more to offer than that.

Pattaya is amazing, so much more than girls bars. It seems you guys have won the lotto, you seem to be living well. Fancy massages, restaraunts instead of street food, roof top bars. You guys used to live the cheaper life which we enjoyed watching it seems you are making More money via KZbin And why would you go to a Indian restaraunt when you are in Thailand. The food looked awful . Durian does smell, but is a delicious fresh fruit. Don't bother with dried.
