I just got back writing to an old friend who's dating a Phili lady with the hope of marrying her. He asked me for comparisons to what he pays for things and what I pay in Thailand. Basically asking which was poorer of the two? I've never been to the Phili's so I looked it up on the web. I looked at this site and I can't believe the writer has been to Thailand. Here's what she says about Thais and alcohol.
Similarities and differences between Thailand and PhilippinesAlcohol – it seems that in these 2 countries people are just not alcohol fans. Personally, I almost never saw a Filipino (apart from that crazy night when we ended up at the swimming pool at 3.30 am) or a Thai person drinking alcohol, not even when we went out at night. There are definitely less people drinking than somewhere in Europe, for example.
Firstly, do you think she is she correct?? And secondly, what are the differences between the two countries?? I think she's wrong regarding alcohol in Thailand so I don't believe the rest of her post.
