    Survanak , was always known as an easy option , for expats requiring  visas.

       Now it is too well known.   Thx social media..

     

     

     

     

    Thats why im always against people saying "to much" on social media. 

    Of course its all just EGO and guys wanna proove they are the seasoned traveller and they know it all..

    Mix that with the local greed and willingness to destroy their surroundings for the tourist $..

    Its why many of these places have been ruined by mass exposure and "lonely planet" rubbish

    Who shipped it should now be the priority...

    The people behind this have big power and big money so they will never get caught.

    No doubt they will find the stuff was made in a bordering country and nick a few country bumpkins

    while paper trail to the real organisers/exporters will go mysteriously cold.

    always does.

     

    All these huge busts in the past, in every country, i never heard them hauling in some rich drug kingpin.. 

    funny that

    Quite worrying that they deport you for minor offenses actually.

    5000 BAHT fine is nothing, you can get the same when you don't report your TM30 form and get caught, will be interesting to see when they start deporting everyone who misses tm30 or 90 day reports, speeding, driving without thai driving license etc...

    You Sir, should be fined 5000 baht for baseless scare-mongering!!

     

    Seriously tho, what country will deport for such crimes you mention?

    (many that can come from bad luck and mistakes of no intent)

     

    Vandalism is another thing, clear intent for mischief, absolutely no excuse, and no point to it,

    other than causing a pain in the ลรse for people lumped with the time and expense to have to clean up.

     

    I wish my own country was tougher on stuff like this all along then we wouldnt have to see the eyesore we are forced to every day you travel on trains and such.

     

    These Dickหeads are just insecure drop-outs of society, trying to get some little attention to their otherwise meaningless life.

     

    If they feel such the big need to be noticed,

    put a tatoo on the forehead (prefer with word-"IDIOT")

    send them home to paint on the wall in mommys basement!

     

     

  4. Actually i am looking at right now.

    Craigslist Bangkok

    2008 used honda civic LX

    40,000baht.

     

    it does sound a little to good to be true

    tho.

    I dont know what you will get for 20k..

    Maybe something with problems that need work.

     

    Anyway to the OP,

    If any chance of find a cheap car, best to check CRAIGSLIST Bangkok.

     

    BTW OP,

    Do you have Thai I.D card? 

    Thai driver licence?

    Speak and read Thai?

    Theres things you must know NOT to expect from Thai lady.

    1. ...

    This is not true. My girlfriend do apologise, even if she don't need to, like in case of a misunderstanding due language issues.

    2... 

    This is not true. I don't support her or send her money, but do I get a geniuine thank you if I buy her a gift.

    4....

    This is not true. She always insists to talk about our issues and always ask me to tell her about my concerns, so we can clear this out.

     

    And yes, she's a Thai lady too.

    Maybe yours has a decent education and some Chinese ancestry!!??

     

    But yes, they are always nice and polite at the start..even the bargirl!!

     

    And yes, they should all have the qualities your gf has, especially when someone paying them a free way in life.

     

    they should be very thankfull, but unfortunately many Issan ladies are not!

     

    Ive heard about like this OPs, you could give them the world and get treated like trash in return. 

     

    With all the BS you put up with, Unless you can see some basic good values in her, they are not worth it!

    my girlfriend apologizes all the time for little and big things. not that big of a deal.

    again i get thanks for everything i do. but i hardly give her any money. 

     

    i have not paid for anything to walk away from.

     

    two year anniversary coming up. no arguments so far and nothing to compromise about. 

     

    Fair.

    I should have added my opinion based on the type of person the OPs gf seems,

    going from what he told us.

     

    But really, you cant deny most those things nearly always present in:

     

    bargirls,

     

    Isaan girls who have been told BS stories and taught racist rubbish all their life,

     

    generally the poor and very poorly educated.

     

    For sure it dont apply to Chinese ancestry who live in Bkk,

    but really how many farangs have access to that group?

    (besides some of the our highly esteemed thaivisa posters of course. lol)

     

    And well, since forever, the more conservative Thai/Chinese have taught their kids to stay away from us skally-wag cheap charlie farangs..

    unless we have oodles of the folding stuff (of course)

    Different strokes for different folks. IMHO your praise of Australia would be much more muted if you had to shell out 50% of your pension on rent. Doesn't leave much for food and electricity if one lives in Victoria or Tasmania.

    As for pussy, it's  about looks as well as cost. I would have to roll most of the women I see in Australian supermarkets in flour.

    um excuse my ignorance but what does rolling them in flour achieve?

    make them look thinner or are you gonna batter them?

  8. Theres things you must know NOT to expect from Thai lady.
    if you are ok with these things and the good outweighs the bad then its ok.

    If you cannot accept, then its best to walk cos otherwise you get a world of hurt that leave you broke and alone.

    1. they will never apologise..even when they are clearly wrong and behaving disgracefully (which in their mind actually they are never wrong anyway because its always your fault for making them angry)

    2. you will get no thanks..for money, support or anything given..ever.

    so dont expect it.

    3. know and be prepared to walk away at ANY time..and leaving all the stuff you paid for.
    this could happen anytime, even when things seem good.

    4. It is you who will always have to make the compromise to make it work..they wont..ever!

    True a lot of these things can be said of all females everywhere.

    The violent thing as you know, you will get with Thais, very much more so if its Isaan lady.

     

    In my age i learned to accept and not be angry, rather feel a bit sorry for them because they are the product of the greedy society they learned from and had to try to survive under. that is really what created the monster.

    Over the years they do get better with age,
    the big trouble with that is once a farang start buying them cars..giving money, helping family...
    how long can you keep that up before you go broke!!??

    Its a shame if 95% of time might be good, but the few crazy days now and again can really weigh you down.

     

    As for this no contact stuff you talk about..

    give up the thought you can change or discipline or teach them tricks like some poodle. its not gonna happen!

    (depending on age) if she is no good now, theres a good chance she never will be.

     

    Trying to cut off the money is also a bit silly,

    that will probably only end up in something of your own bodily pieces getting cut off!

    You European guys should learn to respect the people in Thailand but also realise that you go to the worst part of Thailand

    He's lucky he actually found a Thai woman down there most are Lady Boys who will take everything you have like any poofter in any Country

    At least she gave him 7 years before she left taking everything even in his own country he could have lost everything as soon or sooner to a woman of his own kind 

    The people that go to Pattaya deserve what they get 

    Most of the people that go to Pattaya are only interested in a so called good time and using everyone else to get it 

    So he was very lucky she didn't take everything in the first few months

     

    I was lucky but I didn't go to all the tourist scumbag areas and my wife was a farm girl from the Country not any big city

    So I got a very good wife but I had to teach her something that was the hardest thing got me to do

    I had to get her to except that she wasn't there to be my slave like most guys want 

    I wanted her as my equal and that we would both do things together so she didn't have to work so hard like the girls are thought to do from very early ages

    I never want my wife to do everything for me like so many European guys expect because the Thai and Asian women work so hard but they shouldn't have to and European women would tell their husbands to get <deleted> if they had to do everything for a lazy husband

    The Thai women aren't there to be used and abused by any of you European guys

    A guy who cannot see who is the ladyboy or "poofter" shouldnt leave his own country

    lol

     he will get swindled 100% in no time in Thailand.

    $120  for train ticket ???

    Im sure he meant for the whole week.

    but nothing suprise me about that place.

     

    when i was there some years ago it seemed impossible to do just a direct bus trip up the East coast.

    Instead you are dropped off at many country stations, must buy tickets again and endless waiting. 

    probably cost more than plane ticket in the end.

    absolutely nightmare trip.

     

    Even every 3rd world country i been to beats that place for public transport.

  11. better to do transactions, Big C. Tops, etc with the debit card

    change 1000baht note at BTS counter or foodcourts. 

     

    funny, if you watch them like a hawk they are counting the change 2-3 times. no problem.

    If pay with 500/1000 and you are looking away, talking to partner, or even slightly distracted 4 times out of 10 they try to shortchange by 100baht.

     

     

  12. Funny subject.

    I know a few both older Thai and farang guys.

     

    my Aussie friend say 10k per month is the going rate if live with her.

     

    My Brit friend agree, but the 10k, it is the allowance to buy food and keep house for both.

     

    My Thai buddy says he pay his mia noi (20 years younger) 10,000 baht a month and he see her maybe 3 or 4 times a month.

    Technically/traditionally it's been illegal for a non-married couple to spend the night together in Laos & Vietnam (hotel turned a blind eye when I went with my UK gf but same hotel refused to allow a Vietnamese girl up to my room when I went back a couple of years later) 

     

    Technically it's illegal for a Cambodian girl to marry a foreigner over 50... 

     

     

    To the OP, how much of an age difference is too much? I know it's depends on the age of the guy (e.g. in anybody's books it would be completely inappropriate for a 25 yr old guy to have a relationship with somebody 10 years younger than them, but not inappropriate at all for a 75 yr old to have a relationship with a 65 yr old)... but in your view, what's the maximum age that would be inappropriate for:-

    • 25 yr old guy
    • 35 yr old guy
    • 45 yr old guy
    • 55yr old guy
    • 65yr old guy
    • 75 yr old guy

     

    Also, fwiw at 53 I find 20 yr old girls to be attractive but am not attracted to them, I much prefer > 30 & < 45 as do most of my mates of a similar age so maybe it's something that happens later on in life & one day you'll find yourself being attracted to girls > 20 years younger than you.

     

     

    For the older guy been here a long time you will have heard this many times...

    If the guy 70+

     they will paying the same amount for the girl who is 50y.o and who is 30y.o

    and of course being the pervert they are, he gonna take the younger.

     

    The one that actually is most disgusting IMO is a creepy 70+y.o who want the really young girl but is so arrogant to believe he should not have to pay

    In history many Thais have been killed fighting for democracy. It is a very risky business. I wonder how many of the armchair warriors on here who blame the Thais for not rising up would be willing to go and risk their own lives if the same was happening in their own country. Willing to bet that most of you would leave it to someone else while you left it to somebody else.

    Exactly right.

    Just about every countrys people have sat by and let politicians take the complete pเรร out out of them.

     

    Then if/when Thais do take to the streets the foriegn media portray them as simpletons and make out its a bannana republic.

     

    how long and how many times since Brits voted about this whole Brexit sham?

    and they still been ignored!

     

    Maybe if Brits made an "uprising" there it might be different.

  15. cant believe how many Mel Gibsons are on here..

    " if it was me i break his jaw.."

    yeah yeah LOL

     

    well if it was me and i see this, i will RUN, not walk, RUN in the other direction.

     

    many times when you are the farang and in an accident Thais will say...

    "its your fault farang, if you werent here this would not have happened"

     

    this is actually very convenient for me you see, because while im running away i can say...

     

    "I am only a farang, and if i wasnt here this would have happened anyway"

    I dont know if you are Thai but noticed that you have been suggesting that Thais are very aware of the onine criticism about them. So are you aware first hand that alot of Thais are fed up with the online condensending   comments on English forums ?  And if so how widespread  in the social strata is this both vertical and horizontal ?

    dont really get your vertical/horizontal question?

     No, im not Thai and im not saying for sure if who, or what Thais reads the English comments on here.

     

    But i do find it incredible funny when a poster say stuff like

    "lucky Thais cant read the comments on here"

     

    There are Thais that studied and lived abroad you know.

    Apparently ones who even own luxury property in N.Y and London.

    You think none of them can read/comprehend English?

     

    You think every PM everywhere dont have advisers/colleagues that might pass on such stuff?

     

    and BTW, who translates the Thai PM televised speeches in perfect English?

     

    As i said before "Thais love to gossip"

    Even if 1 educated Thai reads some comment here it has s chance to get spread a thousands of ways in Thai social media.

     

    Id wager theres many more Thais can understand written English than there are farangs who can understand and comprehend written Thai!

  17. in other recent news:

    Thai taxi driver hands back to tourist thousands of baht left in taxi.

     

    and now this.

     

    surely its long overdue for story

    "tourist has feet up on bus seat"

     

    these seem to be the big 3 winners,

    we dont need to read about 15 Thais beating the crap out of tourist..

    we can read that anytime!

    No I have never butheaded anyone here in my area.
    Let's not get things out of proportion. I am talking about 2 people. Not lots.

    I started this topic after someone asked the same question in the news section. I guess mainly about immigration.

    Anyway my wife said recently that Thai media was asking Thais to report any foreigner acting suspiciously. Why only foreigners?

    As it was, 2 foreigners on our soil were busted in separate incidents. Maybe that is what has spooked these guys.

    Sent from my SM-C710F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app
     

    i a real worldwide thing now  "Operation Demonise Foriegner".
    A very convenient way for them who are not popular to direct distrust and anger onto another group, create division and to distracts people away from the domestic problems and anger.
    sometimes subtle and sometimes not.

     

     news:
    when the taxi driver gives a farang customer 300k baht back thats left in taxi...

    next story might be a farang stealing phones or running around naked.
     

    I kind of joke about Thai visa, but if it really is a "thing" against farang then maybe its time to consider certain people in government might be waking up to what gets said online and on these English sites.

     

    You saw a Thai guy in a merc speaking very good English, it would be naive to think none like that could read and comprehend English.
