Hat Yai Sadao Thailand Padang Besar...

- Hat Yai, the third largest city in Thailand,

a few kilometers southwest of Songkhla is the main commercial city in the southern Thailand region. The city is about 50 km from the Thailand Malaysian border at Sadao Thailand and Padang Besar. The city has no particular highlights except a sizzling nightlife, great restaurants and cheap shopping, the entertainment business and the Thai girls attract in particular Malaysian tourists, especially the guys who get here everything what they don’t get in Islam dominated Malaysia. But the real hot nightlife is on at Sadao Thailand border town, with all kind of free wheeling nightlife pleasures, pretty and young Thai girls are plenty and they are around by hundreds trying to make some money.

To come to this part of southern Thailand including Sadao Thailand and Padang Besar is easy, the city has an international airport, the only in this region and Tiger Airways started Hat Yai flights to Singapore in 2010. There is a huge Hat Yai train station right in the city center where the trains from Bangkok come in and some leave for Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and the south. Hat Yai bus service plays a central role in transportation between Thailand and Malaysia. But there is only bus service between Bangkok and Padang Besar directly to the Thai Malaysian border all other Thailand buses from Bangkok stop at Hat Yai and from there another bus leave for Sadao Thailand and Malaysia,

Padang Besar is another border town about 20 km northwest of the Sadao Thailand border crossing. Padang Besar also has a full border station open from 5am to 9pm plenty of Malaysian people come in every day for shopping. Bangkok to Malaysia transportation stops at Hat Yai where buses are changed. Usually bus travel is Bangkok to Hat Yai and change the bus for Kuala Lumpur or places in the border region. The main connections are Phuket to Hat Yai,

Bangkok to Hat Yai and Hat Yai to Penang and other Malaysian destinations.

Downtown is dominated by huge hotels such as Lee Garden Hat Yai, Regency Hotel Hat Yai, Novotel and plenty other Hatyai hotel. There are no Hatyai tours in the close proximity all tours offered at the small travel agents are bus tours to Bangkok, Phuket and Malaysia.

Since the city is the third largest in Thailand, after Bangkok and Chiang Mai it is strange that not one page of written information is available anywhere, neither at the hotels nor at any travel agent, book shop or whatever. The only information available in English language is a city map of downtown and Songkhla City plus some advertisements. There is no info at all for Sadao Thailand and Padang Besar. It clearly shows the

dedication of the city related to the foreign tourists, its sexy entertainment, fun and girls.

Hotels at downtown are virtually at every second corner.

- The City

and Sadao Thailand plus Padang Besar is  relatively inexpensively, means a shopping paradise. In particular at the city center the shop density is high and prices are really moderate, considering this the city is a great shopping destination.

With the low prices in airline travel today nothing is more easy as a flight to Hat Yai for a great fun, entertainment, nightlife, sexy girls, nightclub and whatever weekend. The same is valid for Sadao Thailand and Padang Besar. Great hotel deals start at about Baht

800,- per night at Regency Hotel Hat Yai for a standard room and prices go up to about Baht 1200,- for de luxe rooms per night. The most interesting hotel is the Lee Garden which is above the 10. floor of Lee Garden Plaza. They have a great panorama restaurant at

the top floor with a breathtaking panorama over the city, see the pics above and below.

- Nightlife

Nightlife is sizzling mainly serving Malaysian tourists. Purely interesting for the guys who want to have some fun for a few days. Several nightclubs have colorful cabaret shows in the evening, there are discos and hanky panky business nightclubs, when a guy walk alone in the down town area mainly around the Lee Garden Plaza Hotel which is in the tallest building in town, he will hear the girls whispering telling what they could do to let him feel good. Here are some Girls Pics from nightlife at downtown. There is more vibrant nightlife at Sadao Thailand, right at the border.

there are the border crossings from Thailand to Malaysia. This is in Thailand's "rubber belt", means endless rubber plantation are around Sadao Thailand and Padang Besar. Latex - rubber business is dominant. This is a monoculture spread over hundreds of square kilometers. In between are sometimes oil palm plantation to serve the increasing demands of sustainable naturally available oil.

At Sadao Thailand and Padang Besar are plenty of Buddhist and Muslim communities who have no major problems, a couple of pretty Mosques and Buddhist Temple are along the road, all roads around Sadao Thailand and Padang Besar are in very good conditions.

and Sadao Thailand stands for great nightlife, fueled by two sources, first the guys from Malaysia who want to have some fun they cant find in Islam dominated Malaysia and second by the travelers who simply get stranded since the Sadao Thailand border is closed from 11pm to 5am.

All this simple parameters are creating a vibrant nightlife at Sadao Thailand with dozens of bar, discos, karaoke and massage parlors and hundreds of pretty Thai girls who try to make some money in the nightlife business. The nightlife business in Hat Yai and Sadao Thailand is one of the most important source of income for thousands of Thai people, of course some western moralistic crusaders don't want to hear that but the Thai girls in the nightlife business want to earn money and not to be a vehicle by western guys and women to earn money with them by pretending to do all kind of "social work" and cash salaries in the 5 digit dollar region at UN agencies and NGO's which usually only serve the "farang" but not the Thai and other local people.

Thailand and other countries such as Myanmar, Laos etc. are victims of people who hijacked the UN and all kind of NGO's who collect money from EU taxpayers and by donations pretending to help the poor people in Africa, Asia and elsewhere but primarily this so called "poor people" are misused as a front end by this people in Geneva and elsewhere to earn money for them and not to distribute the donations etc. to the local people who really need it. Since almost all donations and contribution from EU taxpayers are consumed in Geneva and New York via high salaries of the relevant people, most of them earn 5 digit dollar sums per month, that's where the money goes, finally a trickle of the money stream will reach the people in need, but the other 90% already vanished in Geneva, New York and elsewhere.
