Numbers were growing substantialy during 2019. January to May 2019 - 303 check ins into the villas in five months. January to March 2020 - 302 check ins into the villas in three months. The difference was Asians. Many more Asians started coming to Samui but they do not go to pubs and clubs. Hence the downturn on the nightlife and western restaurants.

I keep forgetting to qualify all my such posts with "WESTERN".

from the home of CC Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 considering the state of affairs of health in the UK, US and many other areas of the world, this article goes a long way in highlighting the inane priorities of people who are completely out of touch with reality. It's completely understandable why some nations are failing their people at the worst time possible.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucifer999 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 The fullmoon party in koh Phangan is a fun safe celebration of freedom to enjoy the beautiful island and it supports the island economy ... those that appose it should just stay away or hide under a rock ... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watgate Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 The full moon party will be back in full force once Thailand opens up again because money is king here.It will be the greed factor rearing its ugly head again because undoubtedly the powers to be on the island were raking in huge amounts of money during the full moon parties and will never give up this lucrative cash cow. Who cares about the environmental impact and all the pollution, its all about greed and money. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s you who is the one protesting, I am quite happy for the young people to enjoy what I had the opportunity to enjoy. without interference from the “when I was a lad.......” brigade. So what? So you knew who they were. Some people would rather have spontaneous sex with a stranger they just met on a beach. It’s called excitement and living.

Also, if they are not curtailed they will, at some point, grow & become even more unruly. Look at what's happened to places like Magaluf, or Goa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
