It is the principal of the thing as well as the - rip off the farang.
Believe me I am on a budget, people think I am crazy living on 12k a month - 4k rent, 1k electric, 1k telephone/adsl, 6k to live off is little. So you see I try and be careful..After a short trip to Udon Thani last month, I really loved it there and was a change for the better. Soda 20baht.... bottle of beer from 40baht...i think heineken was 60 a bottle.
