I guess those pesky Farangs pee in the water more, so only right to charge them more!

Re: Diving, snorkelling fees at Koh Rang
They really need to consider a compromise concerning resident foreigners. Agreed that the average ticket taker clerk will be unable to decipher the variety of long term visas people have in their passports. Given this, I wouldn't mind paying a small fee to cover costs for some kind of farang ID card stating that we are long term residents and are to be charged the Thai price. Yes, a Thai driver license and/or a Yellow Book should suffice, but to keep it simple a special ID card would be best.
