The exit from Cambodia was OK and only took 10 minutes. The entry to Thailand for foeigners was terrible and took 1 hour and 45 minutes with hundreds of people standing in a long queue in a small stuffy and poorly air conditioned room 20 metre x 25 metres. People had to stand the whole time with no seats available and no toilet facilities and no water to drink. I am a fit and healthy person and found it hard going but I did feel sorry for some who were struggling in the heat. There were only 2 Thai officials checking passports. THIS IS A DISCRACE TO TREAT PEOPLE LIKE THIS AND GIVES A POOR FIRST IMPRESSION OF THAILAND. THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING TO SPEND MONEY IN THAILAND AND BOOST THEIR ECONOMY. THE THAI GOVERNMENT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO PROPERLY MANAGE THIS BUSY CROSSING AND PUT AN END TO THIS UNNECESSARY NONSENCE AND SHOULD FIX IT ASAP. TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY THE TOILETS ON THE THAI SIDE AFTER ENTRY NEED A COIN TO BE ABLE TO USE THEM AND THATS ANOTHER TOTAL SHAMEFUL EVENT AS NOBODY IS GOING TO HAVE THAI COINS IN THEIR POCKET.

I love this blog and still bookmark it, as one day I will need it again.
