No, but the world is changing and unfortunately getting more violent. Many of us remember a young thai guy from BKK (Cent) who took a boy from Pattaya back to his room near Malaysia hotel and had his throat cut for a few pieces of gold jewelery. I learned my lesson when a Pattaya boy had I taken many times over about 6 months suddenly turned ferel and stole my Blackberry while I was in the shower. It's the only bad experience I've had in 20 years. I think caution is the word.
