[/img]CHIANG RAI There is no shortage of tourists who are clueless about the dangers which they could get themselves into at any time in Thailand and how a seemingly placid Thai person, who is smiling all the time, can just explode into a violent rage over the smallest things.

The violent attacks against tourists in Thailand are actually quite common and anyone who tells you otherwise is either clueless, or doing this because they are affiliated with the tourism industry and are afraid of a drop in tourist numbers.
There are literally violent attacks on tourists daily and the Thai authorities do their best to not report these incidents to other countries as they know it will ruin the tourism industry. The violent attacks are usually the result of a mugging gone wrong, or a tourist misbehaving or being disrespectful.
It doesnt seem to matter how many foreigners get hurt or killed, there are always new tourists who get into trouble that dont know a thing about Thailand which fall victim to crime.
Remember that life is cheap in Thailand and a death isnt as big a thing as it is in most other countries and in particular the death of a tourist, doesnt mean much to them at all.
The areas in Thailand that tourists flock to the most are where the majority of crimes happen to foreigners. The most dangerous places for tourists to go to are the most popular places such as Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket, Koh Samui and Koh Phangan and you really have to be careful when you are out and about in certain parts of these places, especially at night.

There is also a real danger on the roads especially when on a motorbike. The road toll in Thailand is quiet shocking and the worst time to be on the roads in Thailand is when the Songkran Festival is on. Any other time isnt safe either, you really have to be careful of others on the road especially drivers who cut corners and ride scooters on the wrong side of the road.
If you are staying in a high rise building in Pattaya, Bangkok or Patong, then make sure that you dont get drunk on the balconies, as the railings on these buildings are not very high and it is easy to fall off them.
It is also a good idea to not stay in one of these buildings if you are mentally unstable, as there are far too many people who leap to their deaths whilst on holidays.
There are numerous reports of guys who come to Thailand and fall in love with bar girls and then they run out of money on their holiday and the fantastic times come to an end so they jump to their death.

If you are mentally unwell and you are staying in a high rise building and plan on getting drunk, then this could be a recipe for disaster. The extra depression of knowing that you are leaving Thailand and being drunk could make you do that crazy thing that too many tourists seem to do.
There is also rumors of foreigners getting thrown off buildings and there is no way to check to see if this is true or not, as the police often dont even bother showing up at the scene of the falls anymore in Pattaya. Phuket-fever.com
