Learn Read Thai

I will try to do some effort to learn read Thai, I think if I spend just 5-10 minutes a day I will improve my reading skill alot.

I can also recommend a book available at Patong Language School, Read Thai 1. It's a good start to understand the "grammar" of written Thai. 170 baht.

The hard part is to learn remember the Thai alphabet and Mikegb gave me a good tip before and I will use his method. Make cards with all characters and write the name of it in english on the backside where you can look when you forget. (The name in english helps you remember how to pronounce the chars)

I think cards like this should have a commercial potential too, if somebody made an effort to produce it.
