Sorry for the late reply, I hope you know where the Ark is, last time I was there, there was a lab dog that gave blood to other dogs.
Thanks Aristide. Do you have the data of Ark? Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app

Maya
in Chiang Mai
Have you ever think that it doesn't really matter what it means in Pali and Sanskrit? This is Thailand and Maya is just a name that doesn't need any Indian translation.

I feel you. I think it has something to do with the political upheaval. Very few people turned up at the Chiang Mai Jazz Festival this year... only a few hundreds

I baked some french fries this morning for my chips butty, it warmed the house a bit

Real problems with taxi services at night. Some International flights I had arrived at night and no taxi available...

I don't live in the area but I keep calling it Nong Hoi plaza as I thought that's the name. It's where miguel's is. Better to call them 2-3 hours or one day in advance and ask them to pick you up in front of Miguel's or something. Give them your number so if they can't find you they can call you.
some taxi I use : 0857069764
air port taxi call center: 053201307
Where is the Nong Hoi Plaza? Is it this place near the japanese buffet and 7/11?
-
I usually call the Airport taxi to pick me up. You can wait for the Taxi at Nong Hoi plaza or something

That's a mighty good picture there. As a young person of 41 years I think Chiang Mai is expanding and growing in a good way. Airport is going to be a problem soon though, it need to expand or move to accommodate more passenger airline from overseas.
This picture that accompanies the article could have been taken in 1993, 20 years ago, as both buildings (Ram Hosptial and Sri Tokyo hotel) were already there 20 years ago.
And similar articles have in fact been written 20 years ago, and I'm sure will be rewritten again 20 years into the future. I remember the 1992 or so Nancy Chandler map whining about the 'monstrosity' shopping mall being built in town. (Yes, Central KSK)
In fact it is noteworthy that it is hard to take such a picture inside the old town, as high-rise development is not permitted there, so town planning is in fact pretty sensible. Not too many Thai towns (or Asian towns) are protected in that way, so we are fortunate, relatively speaking. All the development is in Nimman BECAUSE it is a suburb with no noteworthy historical sites. So over-development there is *just* *fine*. Leave that area to the people who appreciate creating a mini-Bangkok; if they're hell-bent on f&*king something up: great, let them do it there. And along the Superhighway. Because the alternative is having Maya right across from Wat Chedi Luang. Think about it.
So.. hard to take the article too seriously. But if enough people say it makes sense or adds an interesting perspective then I may still read it.

But they still deserve a little respect?
Thailand probably would even have fire or the wheel yet.

in some cases High fences will attract curiosity and helpful neighbors can't see what happening in your house. Best to have wrought iron fence and install security cameras and burglar alarm. Will cost a bit but worth it. No one can escape motion sensor detection.

After being here for a long time, it is blatantly obvious that we are not welcome here
Well, as a Thai citizen, to put it bluntly I think you're wrong! (Or obviously you haven't been here long enough!)

Things like "You eat my rice" or " used my water river" sounded like a pretty nut case.

Its in the news, just google "The Coup' Starring Owen Wilson, Pierce Brosnan"
Shooting a movie in town.
I already mentioned in the OP about the movie being shot in town.
Have you see anything to actually confirm this guess of mine and yours?
-
accidental pun
And when they say "Shooting in Thailand", they really mean shooting, in Thailand !
Cue yet another warning from Burger-Man, about how there's going to be a coup, against the government ?

Just a few weeks ago I tried some cronut at Wholefood market in Hawaii, no where near as good as the one made at Tops. Dangerously good indeed
