Exploratory trips are necessary, but that's a bit difficult from Thailand .. roughly US$3000 and 33 hours travel time each way.

Heads-up: I have a buddy who lives in Bangkok and according to him, it shares a lot of similarities with Panama City. Point is, if broadband is high on your priority list and you can tolerate Bangkok, you should be able to tolerate (if not like) Panama City.

I can *tolerate* Bangkok and have lived in the city 2 different times during my 12 years here. But I really don't like Bangkok except for the shopping. The traffic, noise, air quality are all very unpleasant.
IMHO, most expats who live in BKK proper do so for business or for the nightlife
I'm a country boy.
