Polaky Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Uk that is an incredibly high intake going by the weak pound, I have to say though over the past year I have been to Vietnam, Cambodia, Bali, and still my fav is Thailand, The people are what makes it great, next I will try India as the au is still reasonable over there, but only to Goa.

dallen52 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I don't believe what is written here. Will see what they say next month. Maybe the Indians stand out more because of the absence of the other tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This rise was due to someone asking for an extra bed as the 4th member of the family decided to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not to mention their practice of washing their underwear in the hotel swimming pools ???? Still I guess the water would be cleaner than the Ganges. With the governments plan to increase their numbers tenfold, I see a mass exodus of civilized folks to other destinations, sad. I worked in India, New Delhi, about 10 years ago. Now Thailand could not be called clean, compared to Norway or Switzerland for example, or many European countries, but many cities in India are very dirty compared to say Bangkok. Thailand could be considered a 2nd world country, Indonesia a 3rd world country, as are many SE Asian countries, probably except Singapore, but India or certain parts are 4th world. I was on my way to work one day out of the city and I saw what appeared to be a dead body (human), I was in a car so I didn't stop. On My way home the body was still there covered in flies. Now that something you don't see every day. Hygiene in India is almost non existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that something you don't see every day. Hygiene in India is almost non existent. I worked and lived in India for couple of years. The statistic at the time was that 25% of the 1.4 billion population didn't have access to a toilet. They were therefore forced to defecate and unrinate in the street, on pavements, doorways, fields, parks or where ever they could! I remember the local MD's secretary saying she had to leave on time Wednesday because that was bath night! They openly said all the secretaries wore flowers in their hair every day to mask the body odor smells! Running water is a luxury there. Not the fault of the people, they make the best with what they've got. But, it creates habits. Personal hygiene and sanitary conditions isn't high on their priorities!

The British Empire was dismantled, along with the French one, after WW11. America insisted their allies supported freedom for colonial countries. Of course the fact that helped their own expansionist policies was purely coincidental. Don't know where you read about curry and chips but suggest you broaden your reading list if you want to avoid making silly comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happened in Karon was shamefull by a Norvegian. Also indians dont beg money to go back. Yes, India has eliminated murder, rapes, rapes and murder, caste based lynchings, religious based lynchings, superstition based murders and all serious crimes. What planet do you live on??
