The bad actors in Thailand’s cannabis industry
thailand49 replied to george's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
All I got from her and her view is she is a educated Thai, lots of big words thrown her way I put my opinion simply under " The more patriotic the more stupid " I can also put her under " you can take the Thai out of Thailand but can't take the Thai out of her " To clarify my statement her attitude her statement should be no surprise to anyone this is exactly how their leaders think of us. Their supreme courts ruling that it is OK to charge foreigners more for medical treatment not based on their own laws but justifying it because in general we are better off. Her position " This is Thailand " for Thai only why because they know they can't compete in the free market that is how it sounds to me? I don't touch the stuff I don't need to smoke, shoot up or have a drink in my hand all the time to socialize with people then take to the wheel to hurt or kill someone. I've lived here for over 15 years to me there is an epidemic of drinking here now throw in the weed. This started for one reason $$$$$ it was never about medical one has to be pretty stupid to believe why? no way could so many people have medical condition it is like everyone having a handicap parking sticker. I once had a broken leg went to the ball game the best spots were the handicap yet all the vehicles parked were trailers owner BBQ throwing Football. Weed in Thailand leaders here is all about the Teflon baht they can't even fill a pothole their leadership is truly one that can't run anything. The fact she complain show how unprepared no plan that it is out of control. In Pattaya within months they are everywhere being solded next Casino and their will be someone like her complaining it is only for Thais to open. Another example is former MP who snitch on the Chinese Triad grey businesses even corruption is exclusive to Thai. The world turns around Thailand LOL! Close it all down that is the best solution. -
Change of hands their business plans are changing. They now in neighborhoods have these smaller stores called Lotus Fresh basically selling essentials already packed like a different version of 7/11, the Lotus off Sukhumvit ( Num Chai appliance ) died a slow death today the building has been leveled and everything gone. I suspect the spaced going to be rented out like the one North, Decathlon, DIY?

Before asking that question you should check how much extra you had used this month to confirm your use you don't think using more is going to be free. ???? -

Sounds like she was hooking got picked up went to the guys place rented. Story mix up like always or is it me? First she is 28, then 25 living in the same Condo complex are we talking the same victim? Something smells if she was at his rented place Just happened they stay same condo complex it happens but there is more to the story? How would they know she had that kind of cash? A guy was waiting already it was pre-set!

That is the place I saw the Picture duck we tried the places few months ago for me it was OK nothing special, my wife ordered the steam fish found it to be to a bit smelly. Of course my son and daughter went hungry especially her. Things are for sure picking up then we were the only customers yesterday 3/4 full.

That's why they came up with American fry rice for you crackers. I hear soon a Panda franchise is coming each order comes with fortune cookies. LOL On the menu is also egg Foo young?

Like many restaurants yes the service, I worked in a Chinese restaurant cleaning up tables when young it is meeting a balance especially if the food is good. The moto never mess with the help LOL. I was at T-21 last night with the family a couple of Chinese fast food places one call Hong Kong noodles what look like beef stew over noodles? One even advertised a Peking duck?

The Lengkee family has a long history not considered but there are some dishes. I once took my wife there she order a steam fish normally done in Thailand Tom Yum style she ask the waitress to deviate and they did came out pretty close I order the Morning glory non spices with garlic don't use oil it wasn't bad.

Correct in Pattaya, even before Covid I'm not found one to my liking particularly my Thai wife. Ever since I took her to China and HK, then home to U.S. to mom she been hooked. I've not eaten at the high end Chinese places that import Chinese Chef, I can see it in Bangkok but here in Pattaya? As noted I think it was a place at Central Marina, there is a Sichan place my wife saw a steam fish dish 950 baht, that is wear she was joking is that fish imported. There are a number of dishes at Lengkee I consider pretty decent. Ingrediants seasoning surely different as noted MSG is common in every Thai kitchen order a simple plate of American friend rice topped with MSG. I'm lucky she is closer to Chinese than she thinks I never complain this way I never go hungry.

I'm first generation Chinese America. Here what is Chinese food? First who do you think is doing the cooking? Sure they didn't bring in a cook from China! Even in China the use of msg is well known! then the oil which in Thailand is usually Palm. Based on what you mentioned the place won't last long with the Chinese Tour group. My wife says she is 100% Thai from up north. Aside from the peppers it has been easy to adjust to Thai food to be similar to Chinese, her Chinese Broccoli with pork over rice is near exact to what I have at home. She loves steam fish with ginger leave the pepper out Ii is like Chinese. I've never ask her how to cook but dishes in my view are like Chinese. Our biggest difference she think it is sick I eat cat and dogs and I the same her eating rat! I've not been in all the Chinese places popping up in Pattaya I look at the prices shake my head particularly the steam fish one place was charging 900 baht at T-21, I ask wife you want to try she just smiled and said is the fish from China. I thought " that's my girl ". What you described is the Thai food at the markets You ask me if I was a tour guide for a group of Chinese unless ordered I wouldnt be taking them to a Chinese restaurant it would be to a well price Thai restaurant. Several years I made a big mistake I arranged a trip for my daughter in-law son and wife both been before to Hong Kong, while there all she wanted to eat was Thai. Today whenever we travel I don't even bother with her.

Hua Hin Airport in political limbo until after the Thai election
thailand49 replied to george's topic in Thailand News
Lots of money being allocated with really little vision for the larger picture? One flight? With airport Improvements what future plans for improvement to Hua Hin infracture? a master plan or like elsewhere just take baby steps to build worry about the <deleted>hole that it becomes later.
