Regarding my question about SEA countries worth moving to I would like to sincerely thank you all. This group really is the hub of hubs of knowledge about SEA. Seriously, your helpfulness and the wide range of your information helped me narrow down my research and also made me see things more clearly. Thanks again. As to my unwise choice of the phrase "farang bashing" - I did not refer to the two "Swiss cases" although I think that even an admittedly unpleasant person doesn't deserve to be judged by some do-gooders and a xenophobic mob based on not so unambiguous evidence without a proper trial. Maybe the muggy heat and the micro dust were simply getting to me and making me paranoid. At the end of the day it is up to ourselves to live in harmony with the locals and enjoy this wonderful country.
