Why not get out of Bangkok?

You are probably right about that one. I went Wat Arun yesterday and i was the only one there. Today i went to some Palace and i had some 19 year old under cover following me around. KSR is a freak show, 50 cops paroling at night. Other than that Bangkok is fascinating. I did have an outstanding massama curry for breakfast. It will be boring in other places too and even more xenophobia in Krabi. I dislike bourgeois tourist trap$.

I'm thinking now to go to Cambodia because the smog will get worse in later in the season in which it will be better to be in South Thailand. I've been many times to Kep and Kampot. Are the domestic tourists more or less than before? Last time i was there was February 2019 and the local tourists deluge was almost everyday of the week instead of the weekends. I was hoping that they would all stay home these days.

very few "tourists" in kampot/Kep except locals
Phuket is much nicer now than ever before, head down there and its cheaper than Kep

How old are you ?

Here in Bangkok, there are cops everywhere. It is getting weird.

If you feel like that, trust your feelings.

I am in Phnom Penh and things are buzzing again, the cops are invisible, or might as well be, there is no anti-foreigner attitude and life is sweet.

It is now very easy to come here so if you are planning a move do it quickly before this Omicron goes global in the next month and they all panic again and do stupid things like quarantine.

Kampot fills up with domestic tourists during national holidays and that's pretty much it. People that can afford to travel these days mostly appear to stay in resorts or more private accomodations. The places in town that used to be busy with people coming and going are still mostly empty it seems.

even the migrants in thailand are heading back to Cambodia

In Oddar Meanchey province, deputy governor Dy Rado told The Post on December 9 that the number of workers returning through the O’Smach border checkpoint has jumped from an average of 150 per week up to 200 due to fear of the Omicron variant’s potential to disrupt employment there.
In Battambang province, deputy governor Soeum Bunrith said 252 migrant workers returned from Thailand through the border checkpoint on December 8. In November, they were only averaging about 50 to 60 per day.

I would like to kick their teeth in as well, and I'm a farang myself. That combination of paranoia and ignorance is priceless. Strangely enough, I've never felt any resentment by Thais in the street all through the pandemic, but then again, I wear a fucking mask just like them. How difficult can it be?

" kick their teeth in" is a figure of speech, right? "...as well..."? You kick this Farang's fangs, and you can fuckin' pick them up and put them back in the glass, where you found them.
