The magnifying affect on the value of money in different locations.
If you go to Pattaya beach road the motorbike taxi will charge you 100 THB for a short trip and if you walk one road up little less and so on. The further you go in Pattaya and the less western people you see the less the price.
When I take motorbike taxi from my house it’s only 50 THB because there are no western people living here and they are almost shy and ask you for money. When I want to go back from World Trade the price has more then double and not because it’s longer (its shorter) it’s just because that’s a western populated area.
