Australian tourist raped on Koh Samui
2008-03-28 08:48:00 I can only find one news story covering this. It looks like they are trying to keep it quiet. On Wednesday, an Australian tourist was raped at a resort on Koh Samui.

Red Snapper Bar & Grill
2008-01-10 15:36:00 Wow! This place is absolutely stunning. It has style, it has charm. And it’s got the best location in town. The food’s excellent too. And they’re just some of the attractions of Red Snapper Bar & Grill. Set along a 50-metre road frontage, next door to Chaweng Regent Beach Resort in the heart of Chaweng is one of Samui’s most extraordinary restaurants. And the reasons why it’s so special become apparent immediately. One reason is the many choices of where to sit. Maybe along the 20-seater exterior terrace that’s shielded from the pavement by a long line of bullrushes? They’re growing from pots immersed in an aquaduct, which spans the entire frontage (you can still see the passersby clearly, but they can’t see you, unless they stop and stare). Or perhaps in the 60-seater air-conditioned restaurant itself with its clean, modern lines and various water-features, including a unique pebbly waterfall that cascades down the side of ...

KOH SAMUI - Thailand
2008-01-08 04:59:00 A couple of decades ago, Thailand's third-largest offshore island woke up and found itself famous. Briefly forming part of the 16th-century maritime trade network established by the Chinese Ming-Dynasty admiral Cheng Ho, Koh Samui had subsequently disappeared from the world map and slumbered in peaceful obscurity until modern times. The local fishermen even routed the Japanese forces who tried to capture the island during World War II. But then the waves of world-travelling flower children padded down the hight-flying trail through Kathmandu, Goa and Bali. Arriving here, they bedded down in thatched huts beneath the palm tress and wandered the beaches in sarongs, silver anklets and in search of self-identification. Until the recent completion of the flowerbed airstrip, however, the time consuming overland trek via Surat Thani and the two hour sea crossing from Ban Don or Don Sak deterred all but these hardy back packers.Now the Bangkok connection has been established, and the wild ...

Koh Samui Thai Restaurant Review
2007-12-02 09:28:00 130 Erskine Street,Middle Park VicPhone: 03 9696 3080FoodThai food. No banquets or set menus unfortunately. There were some nice flavours in the tradtional thai dishes. I didn't try as many of the dishes as I often would because the price was a bit more expensive.ServiceAverage service. Never hugely busy, but not overly attentive.ValueAs expected in the Middle Park village, Albert Park area, restaurants tend to be pricier as the areas are somewhat upmarket. Would be ok if the food and service was sensational, but nothing special there.Decor and AtmosphereNice quiet atmosphere. There are 3 sections of this restaurant with two entrances, meaning the restaurant is much bigger than it first appears. In fact I have been there twice each time thinking the different entrance was a different restaurant ! The front section is small and quiet in a beautiful plane tree lined heritage street. Going down a narrow corridor leads you to a larger back section, which is more spacious. Ther...

Learning Thai Massage in Koh Samui
2007-09-24 12:13:00 By : Alister BredeeMarloas is nineteen years old and she comes from Rotterdam in Holland. She is in gap year from school and has taken the time to travel in Asia. She has been on the road for four months and as the trip winds to a close she has come to the Health Oasis Resort in Koh Samui to learn Thai massage. ?This is one of the best things I did on my trip,? she enthuses. ?While I was traveling I had massages. It felt so nice that I decided I would like to learn how to do it!??It?s just for fun. I have learned it for myself and to help my friends and family.?No, she does not want to become a massage therapist. Her goal is to train as a medical doctor, and this preparation in massage could well help her in her aspiration to study western medicine. Her twenty-hour course stretched over a leisurely five and a half days. So she has plenty of time for rest and relaxation in the swimming pool and on the beach beside.
