  1. When i see all the tours to the tourist places in bkk,I know the boat trip and others are far away and take hrs to reach.When there, the thais charge alot to enter if u don,t agree you don,t enter.Then u have to get back to the centre with the same tuk tuk and then pay more or they leave.Heard this story last year from some tourist who got caught.Let say they were well and truly scammed
  2. Back of the bike,he was driving it and yet able to do many things.she jumped off the bike .Just a few questions to be cleared up on what she said
  3. If he did work as DJ did he have a work permit,if not he was illegal too here working.but now all this does not matter now.
  4. Happening alot recently,I also notice that they check every note and old us bills will not be accepted.500 euro note was cancelled i think to stop fraud and money laundrying too.Apart from showing passport to exchange you will not get away with it in thailand
  5. They say prostitution does not exist in thailand either or the sex trade in the bars or cities.You can see it every night.Internet now but someone watches this 24/7.Round the world it exists,we know and someone will look online.Dating sites whatever else someone does it somewhere.They is a story about big joke and gambling sites going round too.Thailand is not excluded from what happens anywhere
  6. Did he have lights on the bike riding a bike at night not a good idea.Anytime you are at the bottom of the chain of transport.Riding a push bike here is to be avoided really
  7. Pointless does nothing,people still smoke and will drink pictures will not make a difference at all
  8. They is 7/11 and bigger store lotus before tesco lotus.They are everywhere.That is about it.Every good location u find one 7/11.So that is one of the reasons they do well.
  9. local drink is not taxed that much,imported always carried a bigger tax.Red wine was always higher in tax.Myself i stick to local products and imported wine is a treat sometimes,that is the way i look at it
  10. Now when u go thru security power banks will not go thru in swampy.i Have this problem everytime so i keep the manual and get it thru after a talk to explain it is ok.This will make it almost impossible now to get thru as most people have a power bank for a mobile in they baggage
  11. They know where both are,they must be a entry record somewhere.Unless a forged passport and name,they have no clue just a media story.Mr redbull hides in plain sight it seems and waits for the clock to stop ticking
  12. If they were warning signs all around why not be carefull.As previous comments said i hope insurance will cover,otherwise he is right go fund begging bowl will come into play.If was at the waterfall saw signs I would not be do anything stupid
  13. Not a expert on aviation but the covid period is pretty much over and people are travelling again.Before anyone travels check the prices that is a must
  14. I,am sure he has a plan and it will work out for him.He seems to be able to get out of many problems
  15. The thais are overstaying or illegal working there,It happens in thailand and the thais don,t like it.They are quick to grass up the person if caught.I agree a bit of karma maybe coming back to them now.I don,t know many sth koreans saw a few in angeles and it seemed some think they are more special than others.So maybe they have a number to ring up to catch the illegals too, a previous comment said he wanting to return after being caught before.So the cycle continues
  16. The burning has started early with a big fire.I Imagine certain farmers have alot to answer for for starting it with many little ones.Alot of other things will be lost now but the burning maybe will be shorter this year.My mask is ready if it gets bad
  17. Nurses are in short supply everywhere in every country.It is also a issue when they go abroad for a better deal .Phillipines train alot and lose many too
  18. The ones that are legal,maybe losing business because of them.They are cheaper than them so police have to stop it or check it
  19. illegal in thailand to sell across the water anything goes.He is just 1 of many doing this and chinese are the buyers
  20. Must be something important for buddist,seems small if that is what is in the box.Big budda day this sat,i wonder what it is
  21. Ok so everyone will use the motorway,quicker to get home and free.Will the streets have less traffic now for a day
  22. Street racing is everywhere and young thais go to shops to improve the scooters.I brought 1 used it was raised at the back,also they is a speed custom shop in pattaya and he does well doing them up for the owners.They will never stop racing and the police know where and when to catch them.I brought mine because it was higher and as a farang that works for me,not for the speed that is for sure
  23. Long time to come to court,but they were going nowhere and now none of them are leaving soon
  24. One time my flight was cancelled took us to a hotel nearby with meals.Next day we left.Was just a extra day in the airport surrounding area,no big problem
  25. If I go down and you knew about it but nothing happens to you,then we will make sure you come with us too
