Dont goto thailand!!
AUD has taken a tumble and dipped below 25 baht.
At least it hasnt dipped under 3000 KHR.....
I remember when i was getting 33.33 baht per AUD
10000 baht was 300 aussie dollar back in the day and it was alot cheaper tooo bloody hell.
Cambodia also has a strong riel bit i only lost 20% not 33%
Plus cambodias beer prices havent skyrocketed like thailand..

Re: Dont goto thailand!!
It shouldn't really concern you as a)you have previously stated that you will never return to SE Asia and b) you are making AUD 100,000 a month picking pineapples.

There is a litany of reasons not to go to that cesspool country! Just take your pick!

Re: Dont goto thailand!!
for every reason NOT to go, there double that number to go
Cant see how anyone would think Cambodia is cheaper ( except getting drunk while smoking cigs)
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Re: Dont goto thailand!!
Best and usual and cover up reason not to go! Is it is too expensive for some to live there.
Always "hope" but never "expect".
