  1. Satahip, Pattaya, foreigner, motorbike accident. They are words that are related in some way.... Edit: I forgot to mention alcohol.
  2. And then....suddenly you wake up. It's not going happen, it's deeply ingrained and part of the culture. The culture of "mai pen rai"
  3. Huh???? How long do you stay in Thailand? 20 years ago it was a regular occurence that American pilots flew on the Thai planes. But in the message itself I made a mistake, I was under the impressionthat the skidding was caused by wrong management. But it turned out because aquaplaning and was not the fault by the pilot.
  4. Some banks already state the co2 content you have used, can you imagine. Banks are all BS.
  5. With all this fear mongering it is better to make sure you have physical gold at home. You can always pay with that In that respect the Thai aren't so bad, they do this for years.
  6. "In fact, a staggering 97% of Thais report weekly usage of mobile banking apps," 😂😂😂 Ridiculous, who believes that. I think they only ask the elite, that's probably where it applies.
  7. One example, a bank that lends out money at high interest rates, money that does not actually exist, and it does that over and over again. There are many examples, too much to mention.
  8. In the Netherlands there are certified private companies that are allowed to inspect a car, or truck with a permit from the government. After the inspection of the vehicle instantly they have to deregister each vehicle to the LTD, after which there is a 50/50 percent chance that the same LTD will come to check the inspection, until then the vehicle may not be released. This largely eliminates the chance of commiting fraude or corruption.
  9. "The United States are a madhouse, no idea why they're still ranking this high. " because: The ranking, developed by US News & World Report in partnership with the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. What made you expect them to rate.
  10. Are rubbish. Satisfied now? Can you write flawless Dutch? Its only a question.
  11. All the banks ar rubish. I hope cash will continue to exist for long time. My last car i bought, I also paid with cash. I can still remember the lady had some trouble counting the 1000 notes, it surprised me that they didn't have a money counting machine.
  12. I bought already my tickets for the next year,I'm not worried.
  13. And let's not forget, where a lot of the money goes.
  14. "I would point out that Lazada and Shopee in my experience have good return systems" About Lazada, I agree with you but with Shopee I have very bad experiences and will never come back there.
  15. Exactly, that's the coolprit here in 'LOS' There are no professionals here because there are no training courses for them.
  16. I don't agree with that, time after time again it has been shown that the knowledge is not there, which means that they don't know what they are doing. The training here is not enough, and above all the 'mai pen rai' mentality, in othere words I don't care.
  17. That's going to be something. I hope for Iran there are enough virgins up there. If not, they will have to fight for that too.
  18. Indeed, the government should hold up a mirror to itself. It always happens afterwards, nothing is ever checked, but is something does happen, the government is ready to punish.
  19. Wouldn't it be better to go back to American pilots?
  20. In the Netherlands you'll also get a fine when they see you flashing oncoming traffic, can you imagine!
  21. Don't forget TIT. Wat a misery I have had with my Ford Escape that was converted to LPG, nothing but misery. Long time ago early in the '70s in Europe I drove VW beetles with LPG that was perfect, but that's not Thailand.
  22. That makes me think that if you take Thai gold abroad you'll get more for it than in Thailand.
  23. From 2021, no I don't drive that much, at most 10,000 km per year. The engine revs too much each time before switching to a low order. No idea what the car is worth, but maybe I can trade it in for a Toyota Cross without paying extra. Last week, I drove a Volkswagen T-roc and the automatic gear box and suspension were much better there. Of course I understand when you say can not compare, for that reason I am now more interested in a Toyota Corolla Cross. B.t.w. I'm now 77 year and I have been driving a car since I was 18, Mercedes Benz, Peugeot, Citroën, Toyota, Honda, you name iut.
