1000 men... a drop in the bucket. What do they want when the Chinese come over their border ?

I always like watching Pat's videos. He puts in a lot of time for preparation. But what I like the most is that no matter the topic he finds the bright side of things. Way to go, Pat!

my old neighborhood-i lived on sathorn soi 17 from 2004-2006 in the muslim neighborhood. we had a call to prayer speaker right outside a bedroom window. the somtam place looked a bit different. we had to drive our car down that tiny soi to get to our parking space next to the muslim cemetery. as for the chinese cemetery i remember overhearing a foreigner call it “thai future park” LOL. brings back a lot of memories. we paid 7,000 baht a month for a small two story house. it’s still there at least it was in 2011 last i was there

Once again a great video. I have always enjoyed watching you put out new content. As the world changes around us it is good to know that you are still at it. I will be coming to BKK very soon for an extended stay. One of the things that I have noticed is a lack of good videos for hotels (not luxury and not bottom of the barrel) for newcomers to BKK. If you have any videos like this or now of any could this be posted? I am focusing around the lumphini park and sukhumvit areas.

What is KUY ? I’ve heard Thai man called Westerners .

Usually the shadiest and most aggressive people that I see in Bangkok are westerners and the Africans trying to sell you drugs. Not saying that there aren't shady Thai people because of course there are. Why come to SE Asia to just hang with the same people that you would in your home country? It doesn't make sense. And wanting to be left alone simply means that you want to be left alone. People trying to read between the lines like you have something to hide when you just want to be left alone like that is supposed to be something unusual. Those are the people who tend to have something to hide and the best way for them to hide it is to mingle within the crowds and pretend.

I like the beef buffet in the area. That is really the only reason that I go there when I am in Bangkok. 😂

If you’re an atheist go ahead and check out now. Even tho IMO this absolutely applies to everyone, no exceptions. All these girl are very spiritual and pray to the supernatural gods that they believe in and it is a real thing. I am Christian. So I cannot believe in the supernatural natural gift of the holy spirit that lives within me without believing in the supernatural powers of the demonic spirits of this world. I could go into much more detail but that sums it up pretty well.

Great show & tell.. highly informative. Thanks Pat!

Amazing video. My first ever hotel in Bangkok was Miami Hotel around 2005. Now is too expensive for me after the renovation. They did a nice job! In my understanding, the last "breaking point" was the pandemic. It is most obvious in Arab quarters. The whole Nana is still not what it used to be. But what you have said, it's the progress. Thanks once again, very, very good job.

I watched this video a year ago and its very pleasant to to watch it again.

This was funny but also true in many ways.

from constantly binging this channel's content, i know more about bangkok (a city i've never been) than i do about my own city, which i've lived my whole life 😭

Thanks!

Saw pathetic old westerners retirees start drinking at breakfast as soon as 9am . Omg. That’s so sad and pathetic.when confronted they said it’s common in here which is a total liars coz locals drink only in the evenings after work or to celebrate something,not on a daily basis and especially not in the mornings

I first landed in Bangkok in 1985, at Don Duang. In 2009 I moved into an apartment in Lak Si and lived there for 15 years. In all of those those years I only saw a handful of tourists, so yes, it is a quiet village in that respect. However, in my opinion, with the development of the Red Line and the Bar/Restaurant area around Changwattana Soi 14, Lak Si is now Bangkok's best kept secret.

Probably more annoying for the office workers who would like to be down there drinking a beer.

You’re a great storyteller Pat !

Prostitution is a Thailand's live wound. Thailand's solution is to let foreigners lick the wound for a fee. It has been very damaging for Thailand - attracting the scummiest global characters and providing viable income to the scummiest amongst the Thais.

Where are you from or born originally Pat I’m from London and just cannot place your accent Would you ever a move to Cambodia or Vietnam? Thailand has got so expensive

Gee! A real gem of guide videos! Thanks so much! Very educational! I have passed over these places several times and seen nothing.

I discovered your channel not too long ago and been watching many episodes and learnt so much from you about Bkk. Solid information through and through in each episode, and entertaining as well, with your wit and humorous observations. Hope you will keep your channel going.. I'm still going through your past episodes and repeating some as well, as I explore Bkk. Your knowledge is invaluable and thank you for sharing it with us!

Had some fun times at Shark Bar in my youth. Now I wouldn't go near these places. No judgement, Just not my thing anymore at my age. I love Thailand but unlike my youth I just enjoy the food and goto the temples when I visit now.

Never gotten sick eating street food in Malaysia. Thailand street food is hit or miss on food safety.

Thailand is not a good place if one is easily tempted. One really needs to have discipline and will power to not fall into the trap of Thailand nightlife.

Yep great area 👍

This video was just what I needed. I am 43 and have been a mild to heavy drinker for 20 + years. I wanted to come visit Thailand becuase in many of the party spots drinking all day is the norm from what I have heard. I think its time I do some self reflections and wean myself off my daily drinking before going traveling again and before seirous health effect start happening to me

I lived in The Link Soi 50 for 3 years. Nice

Another fascinating look at this area. Thanks.

It's all about freedom i believe. In the east, if a woman cons you out of all your money, you're the fool. I'll own that, i let it happen. In the West, it's the laws that allow women to screw over men, that powerlessness is worse.

at 10:15 looks like a ghost crossed in front of Pat :O

Great two parter Pat. Some beautiful houses along the tour. Thanks for all the hard work bringing it to us. 😊

😊👌

Just today another construction crane fell and killed two workers. Somethings never change in Thailand. The owners got off easy, and of course nothing happened to the police who looked the other way.

Quality vlog as always from Pat.

Another great video Pat, I always stay down on the river as I enjoy starting and ending my day in Bangkok on a boat.

What a shame knocking down some of those magnificent homes.

hope all the comments are providing you with all the encouragement you need to keep these interesting inspiring and informative videos coming

fantastic video
