Not surprising! Pattaya, it is clear they cant manage it is nothing but window dressing by leadership. The whole system is already brought and pay for by the Triads so why not support. Immigtation handed out the second most illegal visa last few months tops position have been all replaced. The grey business case as I noted have been quietly slip under the rug and the Chinese run club has been rename 79, up and running again LOL. It isnt grey business but business as usual.

This suggestion just shows the mentality of how fail the leadership is in Thailand.

Peter flipping and Paul up next?

L.O.

Why not should be no surprise the triads already taken over their government.

It is still enforce no matter whatvis put in place. Blitz? The W.H.O. year after year give without any accountability 10 million plus, in Pattaya, they put up tons of signs that is it. They can threat 100,000 baht like they years ago for cig on beach but it is nothing but hot air and people know you got nothing.

Logic All you got to do is enforce!

Meeting to inform where and how much payments are to be made.

Get the brown envelopes ready, that is the only inspection!

tukcom is a much shorter area less traffic.

I would put a bet if I could this wont work and make a mint. As noted it is hot air just like banning the Songthaw more recent no bikes parking in from of Treetown that lasted two weeks🤣 It all comes down to enforcement which is always zero. When it comes to Baukhao it is just a poorly design Soi, narrow, no sidewalks and no parking! Making it one way will just create Chaos elsewhere 3rd 2rd, Klang and Tai. It would be better to just make sois from 3rd,2nd, one way every other that leads into Baukhao, reduced deliveries any size truck for example early morning 4 till noon. Last limit the number of Songthaw by 50% designate them yellow and space them out or rid them replace with a tram system. Whatever transportation in place can only travrel up and down Baukhao all other destination will need to work themselves up to 3rd 2nd,Klang,Tai. this Soi best you getting is to reduce the volume.

It is more than just puzzling if you don't reinvent yourself you are done doing so you put your head between your legs and suck it up and put your ego on the shelf. When I came here I noticed it right away the more I learn Thai the more it pissed me off I'm one that grew up standing up for myself and speaking out. Like everyone, I didn't come here with the intention of looking for trouble but at times trouble comes looking for you. I've done things in the past at home and here that would put me in jail for a long time personally I do not regret one bit of it. Years ago it finally clicked I said to myself I could get into a fight every day I was going to die a violent death then something happened an incident I realized the guy reacted the way he did because he didn't have a clue what I was saying no one in his life ever confronted or told him so it because " the more patriotic the more stupid " he didn't care it was this is my land no foreigner is going to talk to me like this you heard it thousands of times " This is Thailand " From that day whenever things happen I do as a Thai just smile and go about as if nothing bothers me. Thus you will understand the phrase " Land of Smiles " LOL When you talk about a daughter-in-law, all the things that I feel are wrong with this country out of all the girls available he picks the worst of the worst I feel at times God gave her to me for my past deeds, and the failure to believe in the lord almighty. Deep down all I want to do is pick her up and slap the hell out of her and her parents who brought her into this world but she is like 100 plus Kilos guess my son likes her big really big Thai Miss Piggy. He seems happy so I leave it be plus saying something just hurts the relationship I have with my granddaughter to think about. My wife sees all the things are wrong but the Thai way say your peace and move on unless she brings up the subject I stay mum. Family plenty living here with friends also, ask how I do it I've not really a clue maybe it the freedom like a Thai man to go out and enjoy the fruits of this country. I've been told by Thai ladies to leave and marry me Deep inside I say to myself while smiling you got to be <deleted> crazy once is enough. In church back home I tell the priest I've done good and I've done bad but the sacrifice I've made here should get me into the kingdom if not so be it. Can it get worse I ask myself?

I read the responses first page only no need to go further. If Im correct I understood everything that was said there are people in this world thus on site like this write and read well but cant see beyond themselves. Some get it right away and many live in a bubble thinking actually living here they know all the Thai way. I experience what was posted each day 24/7 345 days a year for over 15 years the standard we were brought up in the West IN GENERAL! Majority of Thais can' t meet it isnt that they are bad, stupid, it is how they are raise and taught. Simple aspect like courtesy, consideration, appreciation, the applied definition isnt the same here but does exist. At time when I look at tourist brochures, the Wai, Mai pen Rai, is just words in daily Thai life It doesnt happen. You put it all right under the Thai Bible " This Is Thailand " it is inherited from the top you see it in their laws. Duel pricing, racism, prejudice, there is a very long list. I recently sat in a conversation to mediate with a couple like yourself, the lady said pretty much as you indicate the foreigner the same. The guy just wanted to be heard his idea his opinion said it seems the lady now has everything has stopped trying. In her own words said " I can't speak English to explain guy respond why dont you learn why? This is Thailand! " That in any location is a conversation stopper! You feel the only time they listen is when they need money no problem then right?their BD, Christmas, western way we give something in general Thais especially the poor nothing but for us it is expected with very little appreciation it seems.I can go on at length for myself after all these years Im learning each day, learn to bite your tongue pick and chose you spots when you see a opening add you opinion but keep it short and sweet. Remember, for those like yourself and me we made our bed now we got to sleep in it. I know guys that have hard time changing and it looks like it eats them inside to outside if you cant you seriously need to leave but it doesnt mean totally still can be around them as friends. Good luck,

The place will surely be cleaner! The leaders will make sure it is spent well. Thanks suckers!

Wise decision!

More hot air out of this puppet!

Yes Charles S. I use the 800,000 method I never found the need to go inside and request large amount personally I dont care for Thai banks I dont trust their system theycare lucky to have the 800

Im not expert in these matters tell you what has work for me. Years ago I had my S.S. payment stopped be wire to BB bank in New York. Instead had the deposit with my other pension sent to my brokerage account which is attached to a checking account that provides a Debit card if used refunds back end of month. From that account usually I use FireFox with a VPN on to access the CS account to view. When I log in to Wise to transfer I turn off the VPN. Along eith CS. i have other bank listed including my credit union account I also have two BB accounts. In transferring I use the CS debit card ACH method, for reason I scroll down down select " living ecpense " Comes over each time as FTT although I dont use monthly. If one do a transfer under an Thousand like 900 USD, in you Thailand bsnk within secondsc Never had a problem can also excess using CS debit card ATM.

Funny, he has all those so call assets but he's wearing a 99 baht slip on from a street vendor. This is made up <deleted>! 🤣

Does that mean a crackdown on the BIB, the City officials and Mayor. 🤔

This is Thailand, it was said thus it has to be true. 🤣

" Discussion " 🤣 Who they kidding. This is Thailand!

This is just another item placed into the budget so they have another avenue to skim and skim off the top like a regular paycheck for the leaders. First, even if that was the case you have to have a plan, the plan needs to have a standard as to how to build the sidewalks, width, etc, and proper use for Utility Easement. You can't just lay bricks on top of the sand, leave poles in the middle, wires hanging everywhere, and plant trees that will grow far too large damaging the sidewalk. Even if they were to make it happen no one checks off the work or comes back to check.

Six or seven that is nothing! You can buy here like mentioned Facino but bottles based on number of Tablets inside to price is expensive. I usually buy at Costco or Walmart once a year for myself and family been stopped just explained did the math per day foe a year number of family members wave go away being stopped is very slim. Can order I-Herb bit higher but you dont need to lug the weight.

The greed continues masked under the phrase " Tourism " to line their own pockets at the expense of the Thai people and their society.
