  1. Drinking all night without any control. Tragic loss of life, just 27 years old.
  2. Will Thailand, especially Isaan villages may see a wave of British refugees? The wheel has turned a full circle?
  3. Just another normal 3AM incident in Pattaya 😄
  4. What a horrible thing to attack an 80 year old man. They were 6 of them and could have easily just taken his money and vanished. What was the need to beat him up so savagely? I hope all of them are caught, shamed in public and then jailed for a very long time. 😠
  5. 77 years old with a 45yr old girlfriend from a bar and reported as frequently bringing in different girls before her. He was sure enjoying himself.
  6. There are 6 security guards (3 each on day & night shift, rotating once a month) and 8 cleaners who work 6am to 4pm. I give them 1000 Baht each for New Year and 500 Baht for Songkran, put in one of those colourful Chinese envelopes.
  7. Another gallant Western male comes galloping on his white horse to save a poor brown Asian girl in distress.
  8. And more importantly, are they marrying them?
  9. Graduated from which University, what faculty and grades will make a huge difference. We just recruited a gold medallist graduate engineer (specializing in engines) from a prominent Bangkok based university at a starting salary of 38,000 Baht plus small perks.
  10. Pattaya is doomed! 😪
  11. Just stop alcohol (if you drink), do rigorous physical tasks in the day, take a long cold shower and you will sleep well. Stay far away from all these meds.
  12. I live in Bangkok and we always use tap water for brushing my teeth and cooking rice, washing vegetables. Never had any problems. The same tap water passed through Nano filter is used for drinking. The condominium overhead and basement tanks are cleaned once every 3 months and we also sends water samples from random taps for analysis once in 6 months and results are always good.
  13. Or typical NRA? Blame anything except the free availability of guns.
  14. Why do they not end up in marraige with customers from other race or countries (I am talking in general, there could be exceptions) like Africans, Arabs, Chinese, Indians, Etc.? Why the fatal attraction between elderly white men and Thai women from the lower economic strata?
  15. And the hospitals will have Starbucks, Au Bon Pain and other branded shops, beauty salon, restaurants, valet parking, giant TV screens in various locations, flower shops, etc. Many hospitals also have wellness center (aka massage service, cosmetic surgery etc.).
  16. I just completed this quiz. My Score 30/100 My Time 161 seconds  
  17. Please read the article, it was crypto held in some online safebox. Not cash in a traditional savings account at a brick & mortar bank.
  18. I go to section E for my annual visa extension (WP holder). As with every year, arrived at 9am and was out by 9.10am with the visa stamped.
  19. Sure, he did not do the right thing and you have rightly disagreed with what he did. But did he deserve his head cut off? You do not make any comment on this?
  20. Thailand has come a long way from 30-40 years ago when it was a heaven for westerners. With the growing affluence of Asian countries and the decline in the Western economies, the tables have turned. Pensioners and economic refugees from Western nations can no longer feel like royalty as before. It was inevitable.
  21. Since you say it is a "large amount" of cash, try with some Russian mafia types in Pattaya or Phuket.
  22. Not really. They create content to entertain or educate, and then ask to contribute a small amount if you have enjoyed their presentation. Nobody goes begging straight out. That is go-fund-me model.
  23. Glad she got back her precious ring.
