  1. What has this got to do with Elon Musk?
  2. Actually mote like Ga Toie, with a 'g'.
  3. He obviously hasn't met David Bowie's widow.
  4. In my experience they are treated well. Much better in than 20/30 years ago when they were allowed to go into major cities for the tourists to feed for money.
  5. erm, were you on top the elephant? Do you think they like carrying strangers?
  6. Bring back the Dickensian workhouses eh? Put them in the tower of London.
  7. I think this is the best way to make sure everyone knows what the rules are. Most countries do this and in terms of fairness, US citizens should do it in Thailand as Thais have to show W-2 forms and copies of U.S. income tax returns when even renewing retirement visas.
  8. Indeed. The Islamophobic Brits I know are usually the type that are miffed as their jellied eel shops have been replaced by kebab shops and they go on about how if Reggie and Ronnie Kray were still around, there would be no crime. It's getting old and resistance to change. Rather ironic as they are all immigrants in Thailand, where they are generally peacefully accepted.
  9. Well which one is it? I'd love to know which religion promotes religious intolerance. Thailand's constitution upholds religious freedom and emphasizes the importance of religious tolerance. It prohibits discrimination based on religious belief and allows individuals to practice any religion of their choice. The government officially recognizes five religious groups: Buddhism, Islam, Brahman Hinduism, Sikhism, and Christianity.
  10. Look at why that word bothers you, and no need for personal insults. Religious intolerance toward immigrants is usually rooted in racism, even if disguised as security concerns. Immigrants from Muslim countries face prejudice — religious intolerance and racism — are deeply intertwined.
  11. What religion are you? I'd bet there have been or are radical groups in it.
  12. Here's one Brits story, it criminal and heaven know why Bush and Blair are not in jail the evidence against them is overwhelming. Shaker Aamer: In his own words. https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35049397
  13. Have you any idea how racist you sound?
  14. You are lumping all Muslims into a stereotype by implying that Muslim immigrants are inherently radical or dangerous, which is simply untrue. Nearly all Muslims, whether immigrants or residents of their home countries, are peaceful, law-abiding individuals. Labelling entire communities based on the actions of a small extremist minority is discriminatory and perpetuates harmful stereotypes. You probably think 9/11 happened in a vacuum and the US don't commit horrors in Muslim countries.
  15. They all do. However, it's a common scam where someone who works in the bank takes all the interest that foreigners should get. One school I taught in, I realized that no one was getting interest and found out who was taking it. The bank worker came to see the head of school and pleaded for us to take the interest but not to ask for arrears as she could have been in big trouble.
  16. El Salvador is where I'm looking for a few months a year, as their national currency is Bitcoin.
  17. We are talking about different thing I think. There are people here who don't work here panicking about having to pay tax, which they don't have to. The OP is talking about people working here with Work Permits.
  18. It doesn't affect me but not everyone reads the Thai Examiner or AseanNow. Perhaps one's Embassy will notify. Maybe yuo are not aware but just because the head of the RD says so, doesn't mean it's law.
  19. I mean how is it going to be officially relayed? Through immigration is the only way I can see everyone being told officially.
  20. How exactly is is going to do that, does he know where they all live so he can send a letter?
