Well that sums up Thai attitudes towards health and safety.
Classic!

What sorta cost and is it easy enough to get?

Don't think I'd fancy having to take a day out every 30/90 days to do a visa run

Why not hit up neighboring countries like Cambodia/Vietnam or Laos for a change? Or is Asian culture rather similar in the region?

Anyone been to Vietnam? What's that like safety wise Vs Thailand

I watched a TV Show about Ho Chi Minh recently, couldn't believe it was in Vietnam! It was skyscraper city!
