Maybe they have this week. I am talking about generally in these years gone by. They clearly seem very 'upbeat' when in Thailand. The love for racing, and doing as they please is a little bit different to what i experienced in the ONE DAY i had a layovoer in Kuwait. Everything was very mundane and quiet there. So again are they using Thailand as a lawless playground ?

I'm intrigued ... do the Kuwaiti guys behave this way in Kuwait, or are they using Thailand as a lawless society do as they please? If it's the latter than thats damning on Thailand.

He can't levy anything on an individual EU country. The EU works all its trade deals as a block.

The 1 in 1 out, and a max of 50 a week is utterly ridiculous.

Two cars went past me today, both blowing out black smoke. A minute later those red public busses, not one BUT TWO - come blasting past. Again emitting jet black smoke. Then a little scooter comes roaring past. A strange white pungent smelling emission coming from it. FUNNY NOTHING ON THAT.

ROFLAMO - this a wind up ?

Bro's that deep. Did you get that on your own, or through therapy ?

The open border policy has shown to be sheer lunacy. You need to have balances and checks to ensure you have responsible visitors to your country. Thailand these days is a complete mess with the people it's letting in. Absolute pits. The DTV is being abused. This was the first year we actively looked at moving elsewhere. Then on top of that they made the unwise decision to open up to India, without actually thinking should they have some balances and checks in place? Should they ensure all indians are booking hotels, and returning etc They did nothing, with the foolish notion let's just get more visitors in. Indian visitors are turning away some nationalities who find their behaviour awful. I love India, and the families who come on holidays are amazing. But they have alot of sex pests who come to Pattaya especially and behave absolutely disgusting. As a female there you simply cannot go.

No system is perfect. The Post Office scandal was to do with a failed IT system, not a direct fault of the judicary itself - although i do counter that it is debatable. I am not saying the UK system is perfect. Sentancing for actual crimes is a joke. But in terms of procedure and the court system it's one of the best in the world. Wait till you experience systems in other countries.

Which country would you point to where there is a justice system that you see as the model way? Thailand? Don't make me laugh. USA? It's pretty much the same as the UK with courts back logged months and years. If you think lawyers are bad in the UK, then go see how things work in the USA. India? You can end up in court cases for decades here ! The UK whatever it faults, has one of the strongest and safest law criminal codes in the world. Go ask Singapore, they copied the UK text book by text book. It's why people feel safe investing there.

You still need a visa to go to Vietnam for Indians. About 25% of the numbers that visit Thailand. Because you need a visa you need to show evidence of a hotel booking and return flight. No sharing 4/5 guys into a room. As a result you weed out the sex nut men who spoil the reputation for other Indians, you instead get families.

I have spoken to mamy Chinese people in and around Vietnam when i was there .... safety, marijuana drugs, and too many indians was a complaint i always got. Thailand needs to rethink it's whole 'visa free' policy. And needs to clean it's image up. The whole DTV fiasco has let in a criminal lot into the country.

The usual racist lines being trotted around - 'stable' 'islam is not a race' .... completely radicalised these lot.

I'll play along. Okay so whats your definition of a British citizen then ?

Isn't he South African though ?
