Weird thing in Betong.
In Betong speaking Thai is not a must most people speak Mandarin or Malay due to many Malaysian visitor.
When ever you buy something or pay for food you will be quote in Malaysian ringgit not Thai baht.
If you like to pay Thai baht in Betong $1 ringgit is $10 baht.
So if you are quote $2 ringgit pay baht is $20 baht.
Sing Dollar to Malaysia Ringgit= $1 to $2.48 ringgit
Sing Dollar to Thai Baht= $1 to $24.90 baht
$2 ringgit/2.48= SGD 0.806
$20 baht/24.9= SGD 0.803
Thai baht is more worth it by 0.03 haha.
No roaming network in Betong!
You can search network but you just can't connect to any!
Only Betong Thai SIM card able to connect to network.
SIM card from other part of Thai also unable to connect to Betong network but Betong SIM card able to connect to whole Thai network.
So if your SIM card is not from Betong there is no way to connect to their network.
