Why do people have businesses in Thailand compared to other places? Why is it that some businesses are successful whereas others are not? From my own experience it is down to money. For those that do not know a foreigner who lives and works in Thailand is paid far more than the average Thai person despite their skillset. This is because the Thai government feels that the foreigners are bringing knowledge to the country that they can benefit from and use to improve the economy but to the foreigner it usually just means an easier life than back home and this can sometimes lead to resentment as after all foreigners are guests in Thailand and so should treat Thailand’s customs and people with the respect they deserve.
Sadly this is not always the case. Having a business in Thailand and paying foreign workers more than the average time may actually decrease their working performance and ability.

After all living in Thailand is relatively cheap and the nightlife is plentiful so do not be surprised if the employee who was always quiet suddenly turns in to the world’s biggest party animal and starts to cause issues for your staff and your business in Thailand.
Sadly this is what happens when someone moves from a strict country to one that is not so strict. This can be quite tragic and sad to watch also as you see a good foreign worker blighted by an addiction to too much alcohol or the girls in Pattaya and is also a fact of life in Thailand so make sure you pick the best staff for you and your business in Thailand to ensure survival, after all, the business market in Thailand is very competitive and you do not want your career and business on the line because of a few bad employees.
