Has anyone seen any signs of tension in Hua Hin? Or is living in Hua Hin like being in another country…

How many parents in Hua Hin do you think are willing to pay 500,000 plus a year for their childs education, hence this has not come about.

SOMTAWIN IS INTERNATIONAL!!!!

When did that happen?

Very similar at Somtawin. At least it was a few years back. Problem I saw then was that the Thai teacher in my son’s class didn’t speak any English and wasn’t very friendly towards the English teacher. Therefore there was little or no communication between the two teachers. They kind of did their ow...

Bigideas, please update I’m certainly interested. I actually thought Yam sa ard offered an English program like Somtawin. Your description of Somtawin tells me nothing has changed there.

Has anyone with a teaching background compared Yamsaard with Somtawin? There were a lot of pissed off parents a few years back when I had my boy in K1 at Somtawin. The whole thing seemed to be a mess…

Good point but I don't think these guys were arrested in go-go bars... The parents or guardians of these children should be executed along with the pedophiles. My opinion

Short term... How about the long term damage? Thailand has shown it's ass to the world once again... I guarantee you that the general population either don't care or simple don't understand.

It's sad but very true Buksida. Education should be high on the priority list as it's a great long term investment...
