Is Thailand dystopian? Yes. But only for a portion of its people. You shouldn't be alone in the city unless you can dissociate from yourself and become a walking ghost.

The angry weedposter in the last thread >>2887897 was paying a tourist markup. He thinks the good weed starts at 200 baht per gram (freaking Colorado prices) and the cheap weed is 50. Nope, the sticky icky indoor grown starts at 100 for a g and the cheap outdoor stuff is 3 grams for 100 at the places where the locals buy their smoke, on the back side of the huge night market complex. The uncle who sold me the weed was baked as a cake, very friendly and kept laughing because of how high he was.
One thing I noticed here in Lat Krabang; the street vendors are all gone. No more blocking public sidewalks to set up food stalls. Sidewalks have also been tremendously improved. Only the vendors who operate from private property are still present.
Girls here in Lat Krabang are so pale, it's remarkable when compared to South Asia. Walking around in the evening you see a LOT of single childless foids with very slender figures (and a few fatties as well). >eSIM compatible phone Only if you're a phone addict who can't bear the thought of going a few days without scrooolling in public. And, you don't get a local phone number with one of those roaming data plans if I've read correctly.

I've been having some medical problems and am thinking about flying to Bangkok to hit up Bumrungrad Hospital.
Has anyone done CT or PET scans at Bumrungrad?
How safe is the blood supply in Thailand if I need surgery?
Have there been any reports of disease transmission due to improperly cleaned surgical instruments?

In the first 29 hours in Thailand, I've spent 605 baht on "cheap" food. That's almost $20 USD. And all I have to show for it is a bag of rambutans.
Total spending in that same time period has added up to 2400 baht or $73. This figure is somewhat higher than I expected, but I'm fine with that. This trip will prioritize comfort and enjoyment over frugality.
ATM max withdrawal limit has been raised to 30,000 baht at KBank ATMs. The fee has also gone up from 220 to 250 baht. That's about $8 USD.

>>2888112 You get what you pay for. That's the truth of the matter.
There are cheaper options, including a 290 baht room with awful reviews nearby. But I prefer the 600 baht price tier for its amenities. And one day of rest is enough; time to move out and see the country. Hua Takhe train station is 1 km from here. Many trains a day pass through it on the way to Pattaya, Chuk Samet, Chachoengsao, Prachinburi, Kabinburi, Sa Kaeo, Aranyaprathet and the Cambodian border at Ban Klong Luk. This time I also want to detour down to Chanthaburi and Trat.
So far people have been very pleasant to be around. Most tourists hop on board the airport rail, which stops 2 km distant from this area, making it unsuitable for access by metro. But the overhead metro line coincides with the ground-level Eastern Railway line through much of Bangkok. Difference is, you can go to Lat Krabang for 8 rupees on the Eastern Railway, while it will cost you 40 on the airport rail.

Chachoengsao like most provinces near Bangkok is kind of ugly and dumpy and ridden with traffic. But I still intend to go there later today. Lots of nice restaurants around town, I recall from my last daytrip there. Hotels are scarce, but still available.

>>2888213 I flew Kuala Lumpur to Warsaw via Sharjah for $350 in June 2025, that was with checked bag and awful meal paid for. >>2888204 The way countries compare varies tremendously across different price tiers. They'd charge $30+ for a fifth floor room of this quality with 24 hour receptionist on duty right outside Mumbai or Delhi airport. In the Philippines it cost $22 USD to stay in a relatively nice room in a slum neighborhood near the airport (no blankets provided only sheets, lol gud). Here I pay 600 baht, $18 USD.
And IDK how protein muscle roid anon says that Thailand is protein scarce. Everywhere you look there are big chunks of prepared meat being sold in the flea markets. I bought a gigantic crispy deep-fried red meat fish steak for 50 baht. It went down great with a bottle of beer. The 75 baht ($2.50) beef cheeseburger was made with a 3 oz ball of handmade beef patty. Then one of those squash with egg custard filling. Firsties don't realize that being able to pick what you want to eat is a developed country luxury. In the poor parts of the world, restaurants serve one dish to everybody at the designated serving time, as rural cooking is an elaborate, time-consuming procedure. It is served until it runs out, payment is collected, then the owners lounge around and refuse to cook anything else.

>>2888227 Yes, because it's literally illegal for the local hotels in India to take a foreigner unless their business is registered on the central government's online foreigner registration portal for filling out of electronic C Form.
I got a room at the JU Apartments and they JU'd me on the rate for the usual 10 baht or 10% foreigner surcharge. Others had paid 500 for their room, but I was charged 550. But despite paying the tip, they did not show me to the room. >oh 550 baht is the walk-in rate sir, the others paying 500 baht were reservations Agoda price was something like 565.
The mild overcast weather of June in Bangkok is quite pleasant, akin to the American Gulf Coast; after any serious exertion you need to change your clothes, but sitting in the shade for a few minutes makes me stop sweating, because the Gulf breeze blows refreshment across the landscape under scudding clouds. >>2888221 That fish is good protein. IDK the name of it. It's a big fucker chopped into 6" long steaks with huge chunks of slimy fish meat under an umami-laden crispy/slimy breading layer. If swamps gross you out, don't come to Bangkok. The spices in the wastewater are what gives Bangkok seafood its irresistibly delicious taste. Endless recycling of spices through the aquatic ecosystem. As long as industry is not allowed to destroy waterways for profit, their ability to process human waste will ensure that delicious seafood remains bountiful and cheap. If you enjoy the seafood, you'll also come to love that thick sulfurous odor of marsh life at low tide in a food-rich environment.
Today I paid 70 baht for my shrimp and mixed veg stir-fry plate before getting on the train. It had about ten tremendously delicious shrimp on it, each of them a nice chunk of meat. In India I would pay 450 rupees for a shrimp thali and it would have only six or seven small seabugs. That's if shrimp was even available. Indians have destroyed their entire fisheries, so seafood has become scarce and premium-priced in the country. No pork, no beef, no fish. All you have is endless chicken and goat alternated with paneer for protein choices. >>2888221 >uses the word goy >advocates literal goyfeed in place of natural foods Very disingenuous of you.
Why would you need protein powder when you can get a double beef and cheese hamburger for 120 baht at the Suvarnabhumi Market? This contains about 5 oz of prime red meat that is smashed on the grill before a cup is placed over it. You can grab a beer from a nearby vendor for no extra markup.
Leaving the airport dropoff area to take a ride east along the railway. Hardly the urban walk I was expecting. Hua Takhe railway station was such a clean and serene place. Impossible to imagine in a country like India. There would always be some loud people yelling, a general hubbub of excited conversations, vendors and blockages everywhere, and mad dashes of departing passengers to crowd against the entrances as soon as the train pulled into the station. >>2888227 Similar quality hotels are cheaper in Thailand than in India. Both of these rooms would be charged at 1800-2200 rupees in India. But here I'm paying less than 600 baht. So no, India is not cheaper in an apples for apples measure. Many Indian richfags have already pointed this out by comparing five-star resort prices in India to their equivalents in Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and even Philippines. SEA is always much cheaper.
Here I walked past a sign advertising motel-style rooms for 250 baht fan, 400 baht A/C. A parking space was provided outside your door. The buildings are cheaply built of concrete and have small windows. They become ovens when the sun shines.
I bet that 250 baht fan room is spartan, with a hard bed, a small table and a plastic chair, but still much bigger and cleaner and better than the rooms Indians get for 800 rupees. Most Indian budget hotels have never, ever scrubbed any of the fixtures in the room. They are caked with years of filth.

Next four days I stayed in a hostel for like 400 rupees a night. After that I rented a flat. Never had issues with the hotels in India >>2888238 >Indians have destroyed their entire fisheries, so seafood has become scarce and premium-priced in the country. No pork, no beef, no fish. All you have is endless chicken and goat alternated with paneer for protein choices. I used to buy fish everyday from the local wet market. It was like 80 rupees for half kg. They had nematodes in them sometimes so you had to be careful though. Could also get pork and "beef" (really it's buffalo) if you go to the NE Indian neighborhoods
Some parts of Chachoengsao are very modern, while others are antiquated. An afternoon of walking around and eating/buying food and beer along the way cost me 420 baht. Humidity rose upwards of 90%, and the sky got dark gray with clouds, but it never rained or got hot today. The greenery, the blossoming flowers, and the clear pollution-free air is so lovely.
Yes, food prices add up quickly here if you have any sort of appetite for Thai foods. And I'm not even buying the expensive stuff. Today I walked into a bakery and they were charging 95 baht for a single medium-sized blueberry muffin. Coffees start at 45 baht and go up to 140. See how quickly your "light" coffee and pastry breakfast turns into a $5+ visit. The last hotel I stayed in offered a guest breakfast for 179 baht.
This is the park I sat and looked at from the front porch of a local shop selling cold Leo for 62 baht. Driving in Thailand is disciplined on par with driving in America. Evidently, accountability for causing an accident is now very strict.

>>2888392 There is huge regional price variation in Thailand. Here in Chonburi province, a coffee at my hotel's cafe starts at 80 baht. A muffin is 89 baht. A full rack of pork ribs is 599. That's almost $20 USD, not including the 130 baht beer you drink it down with. And you'll probably want some fries on the side too. That's another 85 baht.
But my past trips have revealed that the more outlying parts of Thailand offer food for much lower prices. Here 20 baht hardly buys anything anymore; the vendors are asking 25+ for even the smallest ready-made snacks.

The storm blew inland from the sea while I was descending this jungle mountain. Sudden darkening of the sky and gust of wind. Lots of people ignored the warning signs and got soaked in the rain. It was probably what they were hoping for, a shower after the workout. Air has been very clean here lately, so the rain is pure, it's not going to make your scalp itch. I had to duck into one shop to drink a beer, then duck into another restaurant to eat some pork. Total spent on food and drink today is like 480 baht, $15 USD. It adds up so fast. Portion sizes in Chonburi are miniscule. All the anons complaining about this must've been visiting Pattaya or Chonburi. Other parts of Thailand, they feed you good. Here the 80 baht stirfry rice plate is completely skimped. Less food than you'd get on a 130 rupee or 45 baht chicken rice plate in Mahad, MH, India.
Yes, for four visits I refused to go to Chonburi because I knew it would be a price-gouge. But it's okay. The hill climb park with its beautiful asphalt summit path and rugged nature trails through the jungle made up for it. Prices are posted on the Thai language menus, so no this is not le foreigner pricing schmooze. Beer is holding steady at 62 for a Leo, which puts it below $2 at the current exchange rate. Funny how I thought abstinence and veganism would be healthy. Instead it wrecked my immune system and made me feel constantly bloated, with horrible undigested bowel movements and a feeling of nutritional starvation that a little multivitamin tablet wasn't doing anything to improve. Then I started eating meat and drinking beer on a daily basis. Now everything has improved.
Hostile dogs menaced me (from across the street) at a few points. One almost got hit by a car when he scrambled to move away after I picked up a rock. They left me alone afterwards, but this is a major four-lane boulevard they are allowed to rampage across with no consequences. I've yet to see Thais discipline their dogs in any meaningful way like Indians do. The dogs are feral and think they can do whatever they want. They get angry if an outsider walks through "their" space, i.e. the village street.
This is how much grilled pork neck you get for 100 baht. $3 USD. Anyway, tomorrow I am continuing on the same train for a third ride to a coastal sprawl area with a budget hotel between the railway station and the beach. At 620 baht, it comes in a hair below the /trv/ poorfag cutoff of $20 per night, thanks to a recently strengthening USD. Yes, it also has a balcony with every room.
