Health and Security

• We found southern Thailand extremely safe with the exception of the Songla Provence. Also it it not a tourist destination and no hawkers or similiar annoyances. Saying that Had Yai has insurgence problems and we visited during the daytime only. We found all Thais friendly and helpful when we could get our message across.
