Thailand's Deep South - the regions where even the Thais from central and north Thailand avoid because of the Muslim insurgency.

Let's count how many police checkpoints are there in this video.

Virtual bike ride in Betong Thailand, let's go!

-----

In October 2023, with my bike and a tent, I started my journey from Batu Gajah, Perak, and cycled to South Thailand via the Pengkalan Hulu border.

After crossing Malaysia's border into Betong, my bike and I went on an impromptu campervan road trip to Pattani. Then, we took a train from Yala to Hatyai.

Shoutout to Ayie from ‪@AceyieChannel‬ who helped record my journey. Thanks to him, my video now has multiple angles and is no longer boring, lol.

P/S: some non-English dialogues were roughly translated to the best of my ability. I apologize in advance if I butchered it or misunderstood the context somehow.

✨ If my journey inspires you, please buy me a coffee to fuel the ride:
