Thats a pity you can't buy silver there. Funny also because i think there is some big silver mines in your region, Thailand and Philippines also. Maybe the Government does'nt want you to buy any.

I did ask some gold shops for silver coins but they told me that they only sell gold jewelry and hind bars as these are more in demand.
It may be because the majority of customers are Chinese and they just love gold and its colour. Silver is considered as very inferior to gold and has little value! But I prefer silver jewelry as they have very soft energy.
Gold jewelry is status symbols here. Some people would have very thick gold chain around their necks just to show off their wealth. Thick silver chains are never seen worn by any Thai or Chinese!
But I found a way to buy some silver. I had to go to the smelting shop which is very secretive and hidden away in small alleys in China Town. This shop sells pure, tiny silver pellets which silversmiths buy to make into jewelry. But it would be nicer to have beautiful silver coins with nice designs.
