The Value of a Tourist.

By Sean Moran, Created on: 18/01/2009, Last updated on: 15/12/2010

» What are some of the most common positive and negative results of foreign tourists from overseas visiting Thailand? Thai opinions welcome, kap.

• tmvolunteer commented : a manner that makes me think "would they behave like this back home?" and I know that they wouldn't. Where has the respect for each other disappeared to? Wherever it is, I hope that it comes back to us soon. Maybe respect has become a filthy rich tourist too. The true value of today's tourist = $$$. Send a genuine smile to 10 people today and tomorrow will be a happier day.

• Sean Moran commented : [quote="sulasno":1xw4v5z9]SRT to offer e-tickets By: BangkokPost.com Published: 28/01/2009 at 02:53 PM People will be able to buy railway tickets online, starting Sunday, according to State Railway of Thailand (SRT) governor Yutthana Thapcharoen. He said the online ticketing system will initially be tested for 16 routes for six months, and believed it can help increase the number of railway passengers by 30 per cent. Some of the routes include Bangkok-Chiang Mai, Bangkok-Ubon Ratchathani, Bangkok-Trang, Bangkok-Nakhon Si Thammarat, Bangkok- Sungai Kolok, and Bangkok-Butterworth. The SRT is also experimenting with using smart cards to buy railway tickets in convenience stores, Mr Yutthana said. Starting Sunday, people can buy railway tickets online by clicking on the ‘E-Star’ banner on the SRT website at http://www.railway.co.th ================================================================================================= has anyone use the railways to travel around Bangkok? appreciate any comments[/quote:1xw4v5z9] Would Hat Yai to Bangkok count as travelling around Bangkok? Having ridden the Honda from Nonthaburi down to Nakhon, and then Hat Yai, it seemed at the time to be possibly safer as well as cheaper than stopping for gallons more benzine all the way back up the peninsular. Not necessarily... I didn't expect to pay more for freighting the bike than I did for my own seat. After arriving at the station, the bike was weighed and freight priced. For myself the fare was 905 thb. For the bike, 916. Perhaps it was less risky catching a train from Hat Yai than riding a motorbike (arguably), but the Honda was more comfortable and far more friendly. It's a long train running all the way from Hat Yai : [img:1xw4v5z9]http://www.geocities.com/smoranean/img/gall/hatyaist02.jpg[/img:1xw4v5z9] [i:1xw4v5z9]Hat Yai Station looking towards Bangkok, September 14th, 2006.[/i:1xw4v5z9]

• Sean Moran commented : [quote="HybridEm":2483d17x] Sean, we will have many a-beer when the time comes! Im just waiting for some vacay-time and then i'm back to bkk!!! Until then, you stay sharp! one[/quote:2483d17x] I just had a thought, but don't worry because I've just opened my first beer for the day and that should help overcome the pain in another hour or so, providing I don't think anything else before becoming properly anhebriated. This comparison of the concepts of face with that of integrity is an absolute gem. Yet I wonder also if the white-lies that go with it might be related to the preservation of somebody else's integrity, which carries with it a good degree of social harmony along with the possibility of corruption if taken advantage of, perhaps? I'm not familiar enough with Thai culture to really know how that might work, but I agree that there is a good deal of corruption in Thailand, and that can make for good deals or bad deals IMHO. I've always been lucky with the traffic cops on my old Suzuki, although I did get done out of 400 baht once on the Honda on my way down to Rayong from Nonthaburi a couple of years back. The bike was fully loaded with rucksacks and stuff, so I wasn't gonna leave my bike on the side of the road to go to the cop shop to fight it. The tea-money cop even gave me back 100 baht change because I didn't have any small notes on me. That's corruption but it was done in such a decent way that it was almost worth the money, although not a good thing to have happen everyday on a tourist-visa teachers' salary. On the other hand, I remember the best traffic cop I ever encountered on the road back from Khorat to Nonthaburi. Somewhere in central Saraburi from memory. Hot day, mid-morning, bike loaded with rucksacks once again, and after confirming that I had the right papers and all, he handed me a fresh water bottle to get a well-needed drink. "Wow!" I thought, and gratefully took a swig and went to pass it back. "No no!" he said. "You." He wanted me to keep the whole bottle of water on the ride back. Another example of saving face, but his gift was intended to save mine, although the fact that I still remember that gesture three years later might add a bit to his too, in some karmic way or other? Perhaps one of the reasons I enjoy the corruption in Thailand is that I can see it straight out, clear as mud. Here in Australia it's done so cleverly that I often don't even know the joke until after the punch-line is over and the fat lady has sung, and it's never very harmonic.
