It is safe to drink beer & watch thaigal show. but it is not save to walk alone in patpong. For safety, ask your thaifren to accompany. No thaifren? watch out each other back. Do not go into any shop to get cheap drinks, some cheat u saying 10 baht a drink, but your bill says USD10. Do u dare argue price in the shop? hehehe....

Get direction to go straight to thai gal show. It's a big building. Then hav your beer somewhere else that is safe and you dun feel threaten.

I stayed in hostel, for privacy i choose private room w double bed, got TV, aircon, hot shower, fridge. No swimming pool, no restaurants, no other facilities, no room service. 1000baht per nite.

I spend less than RM1K(exclude flight) for 5 day bangkok trip.

Added on January 25, 2008, 2:19 pmdun worry too much about speaking thai. Most important you know how to greet "Sawadikap" and always say 10Q "kopkunkap", u are always welcome by thai people. And surprisingly, quite a lot of chinese there, and they speak teochew or mandarin, especially those senior citizen chinese, they speak well.

Thai people understand english, better than u can imagine, but they cannot speak well, mostly very poor broken english. So, it gives an impression as if they cannot understand, but actually not. Young people are much much better in speaking.

So, just use english will do.
