It is important to follow some basic elements of Thai etiquette if you want to get the most out of your stay.
Koh Chang is a quiet island; so many common courtesies which may be missing in the capital are more prevalent and important here.
When visiting local temples and villages, dress up and cover up, as showing too much flesh may cause offence. Women in particular should be aware that modesty is a highly regarded virtue.
It is also never a good idea to lose your temper, regardless of the occasion. Even if you’ve been clearly disadvantaged or even conned, losing your temper will get you only the contempt of those involved and possibly trying to help you. Keep a cool heart, as the Thais say.

Dining Etiquette
Dining etiquette may not be as strict as in many western countries, but a few basic principles apply.
Dishes will come all at once or in no particular order and everyone at the table is free to help themselves to any of the food in bowls or on plates that is served. Each diner has his or her own plate of rice and a small bowl, into which to heap goodies from the common bowls.
Knives are not usually used as most food is already cut up into mouth size pieces. Forks, spoons and also chopsticks are the main eating utensils. When finishing your noodle soup, placing the chopsticks on the bowl will show you enjoyed your meal.
