Koh Samui in January - Western Tourists?
I am a 24 year old male travelling with a college buddy (also 24 male) to Koh Samui for 10 days in January.
We are wondering if there is a good mix of western tourists in the night life...we are both very excited about meeting the locals, but its also nice to meet up with other tourists, be they American, European, Australian...to share stories, etc.
What would you say the complement of Thai versus non-Thai would be in the Samui night life?

Thanks again all- now, what if I wanted to mingle with the local population night-life wise- are there other options off Chaweng that tend to attract fewer visitors and more of the locals?
Anyone stayed at the Malibu beach resort - being from Santa Monica, CA, I cant say I'm too excited about travelling 9000 miles to stay at a place named after a city 4 miles from my apartment here at home, but it looks like a great beachfront value on Chaweng. Other suggestions?

thais are afraid of the sun.. they may turn into an ugly dark person.. So thais tend not too visit beaches. and if they do they sit under a massive canopy of umbrelas.
I've never been down south.. but I'd say the only thai ladies or locals you may find at the clubs will most likely be prostitues. that dosn't nessererly mean they will tell you ar charge you.. especially if you are a young blond guy from California.
samui is a huge backpacer haven so there will be tons of young travelers all over the place.
