KENNEDY TOWER,

It's Thailand! A very friendly country in all with brilliant people and cities and countryside alike. However, the police has some corruption within it. When you consider that the average Bangkok police officer is on £7000-8000 - they make a lot of there money through fines, traffic offences, scams, etc. The government itself (since being rid of Shinawatra) has made many possitive steps and is serving the country well (mainly thanks to Vejjajiva). However, sorting out the corruption of the police will take a lot longer and may not ever be fully successful.
