I just find the place a bit boring, unfortunately. And I do not like the food.


Thats a fair comment; Thailand, if I had a choice, would be my 3rd choice after Singapore and Sabah. I still like going to Thailand; ignore the commercialism and tourism and people are terribly nice and its a great place to live as well. Its one of those countries I do visit 3-4 times a year just to get away from Malaysia.

Food is great, massages are cheap and I know my way around so, its decent.

I don't blame you for choosing Thailand. I think its a little bit more entertaining than what you get in Malaysia, especially West Malaysia.
