Children receive a thorough education. They have good hospitals, well equipped and properly staffed. The water is clean. There is enough electricity. Thailand has a large offshore gas and oil industry.
Thai people enjoy excellent health and eat good food.
The average Thai lives in a house. I live in Hat Yai, southern Thailand, and the majority of families live in two storey brick built properties. There are still areas where most of the houses are made of wood, but they are still well built structures, many surviving from the previous century. There is no social security system, such as we know it in the West, and consequently unemployment is almost unknown. Almost everybody earns a living.
