Anonymous participant 407 not really mate, the Thai Cultural Exchange is accepted everywhere cause it's a 5byear program and is designed specifically for soft power, a muay thai course is six months and could lead u problems down the road
that's what u do, not everyone is you, not everyone wants to sit in a minibus all day to do a border run, and for many people, doing so would cost them much more in lost productivity, I make $400 an hour how much u think that border run would cost me vs flying to hcmc? Penny pinching and wasting time might work for you and u might not see the benefit of an elite, just like you probably wouldn't take a pj to phuket when someone else values thier time more. Elite isn't obsolete it's, for a specific kind of person and situation. It definitely has advantages over the DTV
