Pattaya to become Southeast Asia’s premier destination
Swiss1960 replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Underground installations of electrical and communication cables => work in progress, needs 10 more years evamped road surfaces => you joking, right? I see new holes after every rainfall... improved water drainage systems => yeah, right... flooding after every light rainfall is still the norm... rejuvenation of Pattaya Beach => more a destruction of everything that was good, like shades, parking... and beaches that get washed away with every rainfall...- 164 replies

Tragic scooter crash in Thailand leaves Queensland dad in coma
Swiss1960 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News

I give money for people I know when they need it, i.e. when they have cancer treatment that is not fully covered... but primarely, my extra money is to build up savings for the future, so I don't ever need a GoFundMe beggar page -
Tragic scooter crash in Thailand leaves Queensland dad in coma
Swiss1960 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Health insurance is not equal travel/accident insurance... and the main question would remain, does he even have a motorbike licence But as far as foreign tourists go... it seems travel insurance is completely unnecessary, it is cheaper to later ask for donations on GoFundMe pages... nobody will ever get a cent from me for such an accident -
Romanian Tourist Falls to Death from Pattaya Hotel Balcony
Swiss1960 replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Ah, the famous balcony deaths are back with more tourists... More booze than they drink at home... lower balcony rails than they are used at home... whether suicide or accident, does it really matter, as long as they don't injure/kill somebody or cause damage by falling on a car? Dead is dead -

It's NOT an improvement except for the (for now) smoother surface. But the ridiculous signage changing from 2 lanes to 1 are dangerous, specially for motorbikes

Since Cigna sold the Thail business to Chubb - which then cacelled all policies by expiration date - Cigna has become... (naming and shaming not allowed), so I recommend everybody who can to stear away from them. @tomgreen: Check reducing the coverage to Thailand / Asia only, that should reduce the premium. If you need to travel, get yourself a cheap travel insurance
