One question: how many of you guys can speak thai to find your way in BKK? Else, how to communicate?

[seiko.citizen]

you can look for chinese shops and communicate to them in cantonese, they can then divert you on where to go

i had a feeling that in thailand speak cantonese........ . Noted hokkien is fine by me Means I have no worries if I go thailand. Last time my old man was in BKK they spoke cantonese

if u speak cantonese, may as well speak english...btw simple english will juz do fine there..hahahaha...i dun speak thai too..can survive de lar...hahaha...if come to gals...let ur body do the talking..no talking is needed...hahahahaha

im sure most people have a grasp of english with differing degrees of understanding. The young guns would have a strong grasp of the language.
