How much money should I save to go to southeast Asia for a month?

How much money should I save to go to southeast Asia for a month?
Me and my best friend are planning to take a trip to Asia this summer. We mainly want to go to Thailand. I was wondering how much you guys think that this will cost? We aren't big spenders, and can live pretty cheaply, but definitely want to stay on the safe side. I was in Thailand a few years ago, but I'm sure things have changed. Any ideas? Thanks!

well, im not sure about thailand, but in Philippines its about $923(not included Airfare) depend of how many days, and what specific place. good for 2 person, Food is not expensive well for me its cheap,.. But hotel are quite expensive for 4 - 5 star 3 star- reasonable, depends on location, and season peak season on southeast asia including thailand is from march - may expect hotels are expensive well its just like the same when it comes to thailand, the currency exchange rate are just same..

You can stay in rooms in Thailand from about 5 US dollars per night for a fan with shared bathroom. Depending how luxury you want it to be. A cheap aircon room would be about 15 dollars. Eating in Thailand can be very cheap, Fried rice would be about 2 dollars and drinks about 80 cents. If you travel by bus you can travel cheap. If you travelk to other countries such as Cambodia and Laos you have to buy a visa upon arrival whicht is about 35 for Laos and 20 for Cambodia.
