Lets face it....... the moment you mention Thailand the "knee jerk" reaction from most people is Prostitution and corruption

There are Bars, nightclubs, Prostitution and Corruption is everywhere in the world. 

Unfortunately the media sensationalise, because people like a good story and Thais' generally don't engage topcis of conflict so the Press can have a field day at Thailand's expense, anyway I decided to google a few things to give prospective of things
