Thailand in Google Street View

Here's something to whet your appetite:

Thailand is said to be the Texas of Asia. It's the second-largest pickup truck market in the world and their freeways have frontage roads. Concrete roads are also common (which is not a standard construction method in most of Asia, asphalt is usually preferred).

But Thailand drives on the left side of the road.  That's not very Texas-like!

Went to look at Thailand's GSV and found that Singapore has GSV as well.  A few notes regarding Singapore from what I can see:

1. They use km-posts along the expressways and 1/2 km posts as well.
2. The exits are distance-based and go from south to north and from east to west.
3. The expressways seem to have names and no numbers.
4. The signage appears to be a mix of European and North American types.
5. Interestingly, the text is all in English.

Unless you count people from out of state who take a frontage road exit, not realizing the frontage road is two-way traffic.

(Yes, I realize it's unTexan to call it a frontage road.)
