I understand perfectly well thank you for your concern. I run a business and charge anybody who is a different colour to me 3 times the price. Racist - abusive behavior to members of another race. Posted by gee on October 10, 2013 10:17 Editor Comment: This is clearly something you have trouble understanding, gee. Color is not a factor in double-pricing Nor is race. Perhaps you have yet to notice but British, Americans, Australians and people from many other countries have all kinds of backgrounds and skin tones these days. So for that matter do Thais. This is nothing to do with race or racism. The only colors that matter in a double-pricing system are the color of your passport and the color of your money. 
Go with your Thai girlfriend/boyfriend & you might get a discount, especially if you try to speak a little Thai on arrival. Works in my experience. Posted by Anonymous on October 10, 2013 13:13

Any place or attraction that has two tier pricing is off my visitation limits. I don't care who or what you are, thai license discount or not. YOU do not get my recommendation for visitation, ever. There are now four places I will not suggest nor visit. Posted by Graham on October 29, 2013 22:57 |

Editor Comment:
If you are going to criticise, gee, please criticise accurately. What you mean is ''discrimination.'' A two price system is not ''racism.'' It's based on nationality - Thai and non-Thai - not race. Koreans, Chinese and Japanese visitors are charged the same as Europeans. Not much point in criticising what you don't understand.
