We're getting as desensitized towards car crashes in Thailand as we are towards mass shootings in America.

Paste an "Apple" logo on a dog turd and Apple fans will line up to buy them.

Dutch people I know are heading out to live in the Philippines. Just having hassles ( normal) in selling their houses.
Yeah, but it's the Philippines.

I use SCB online to pay my rent to Bank of Ayudhya. Instant, free (two per month), quite easy. I read the small print, it appears I MAY be charged 50 baht for each transfer over the initial 2 free, but that's STILL much less expensive than any ACH charges I've seen.

Gotta admit I'm mostly happy with purple. Recently I had to change my cell number and discovered there's no way to do that online, which meant a trip to the local branch with bank book, passport and debit card in hand, but there are plenty nearby where I live. I still do most of my banking now online (rent, cell phone top up, Lazada, etc.) so 1.5 thumbs up from me.

I've been here just a little longer and back then it WAS the perfect dream. I could go out with 5000 baht in my pocket, have a decent meal, do a short time, then go out drinking until the sun came up and still have change left when I poured myself back into my room. LOS has changed and honestly, I haven't seen any for the better of us expats.

I must admit, I'm getting close to that tipping point, and so are most of my British friends, but we've built a comfortable life here and it's just not quite bad enough to leave - yet.

Oh boy - ANOTHER shopping centre! Thank goodness farmers are failing so they can soon reuse the land for still more shopping centres. <sarcasm>

But . . . but . . . I just saw a report stating 7-10% growth this year. My head is just spinning!

This has effectively killed my 2-10 day bike trips around the country. May as well sell my 300cc bikes and buy a 150 PCX.
I've cancelled trips for the same reason. This is just a nightmare headache.

Considering the conflicting reports on everything from number of arriving tourists to amount of rice exports, I'd give this article a solid four Pinocchio's.

A CEO of ANY successful firm would have been removed for cause if they had tried this same garbage. (BTW, why did the "s" word go back to being censored here?)

I live slightly off the beaten track. No song tows, no motorbike taxis. I can get a grab in under a minute. Sorry taxi mafia, your days are numbered.

That very discussion came up yesterday. Historically speaking, LOS is overdue for its next coup.

Was it your first, second, or third 90 days report, after your latest extension?
Correct - the bank statement requirement can coincide or come close to the same date as the FIRST 90 day report. I have to show my bank statement 10 Sep, my first 90 day 19 Sep. I should be able to do both on the same day. After that, no more bank statement until next year.

Custom Sidecar for Honda 125
in Motorcycles in Thailand
Posted
Hi, I'm looking to hire someone who can add a sidecar to my Honda 125 somewhat like the attached photo. In or around Pattaya. If possible, easy to attach/detach with reasonable effort, I only need for occasional hauls. Thanks.
