Working in Thailand.

Anybody worked in Thailand lately? Heading to Mae Sot, on the Burmese border in the northern provinces for a longtime medical client in a few weeks. Was in the south along the beaches when I was on active duty; but that was 20 years ago, which of course is a lifetime. Just looking for current feedback, tips, etc.
