    It's important to spend weeks, maybe years in Pattaya to search for illegal acts by women.  I have been there and did not see ONE woman who might do sexual acts for money.  I do believe they exist there, however.  If you look very carefully, maybe you can find.  

     

    is it possible to close an entire city?

     

    99.999% of all foreigners are here for one thing.  Fine them 300,000 baht and jail time, then things will change

     

    what will change?  The Thai baht will go to 10,000 for one Euro.  LOL

    That's a very high percentage!  My foreign colleagues, friends and I working here must be missing something then!

    I think you'll find that the "wine" is predominantly grape juice with some added fruit juice which is mixed and then fermented together to produce the end result.

     

    On a few bottles/boxes I have seen mention of a particular grape, but you can rest assured that they would not be the pick of the crop otherwise they would not be used in such a product!

     

    In the past I had only ever seen those products made in Australia, Thailand and France, but was most disappointed to see the introduction of a Kiwi made product recently, and as for being real vineyards, well my research shows that they are, but again not those vineyards producing anything other than everyday swigging wines, and I don't think you'll ever see the day that Penfolds or Chapoutier produced one of these "wines".

     

    In summary, they are simply made for cheapness, one way or another.

    Cheers - thanks for doing the research! I did try some of this fruit wine. Tastes like something non-drinkers might like, or perhaps teeny-boppers that are looking for something that tastes of candy to then get quite sick from.

    So obviously the motorcyclist didnt have a license and therefore no insurance which would have covered a lot of these bills and the runner no insurance as well .

    Don't over-estimate limits of a motorbike or motor car insurance coverage in Thailand. It does not cover very much and there are no extra coverage adders that I can see.  Correct me if I am wrong?
