Russian man arrested with 300,000 baht in fake euros in Pattaya
Strange that he got 20 thousand bath for the 500 Euro, after all, the exchange rate is considerably lower and should be no more than 19,600 thb.

Lazada experience
Yes, it was me who give that sign because I'm very surprised. It was 2 weeks ago I had that problem, mentioned above, with much effort a phone number can be found but only with referrals. after many attempts I gave up and then a Thai family member made an attempt with no positive result. had returned the product with a form sent by Shopee but got it sent again within a couple of days, afin it's a long story but it's not solved. For them the problem is solved but not for me.

Lazada experience
Ha, ha, I recently quit SHOPEE because of the poor service and of refusing to take an item back, now I am only tied to Lazada. But with lazade, you can still make contact by phone anyway and speak to an employee, that is not the case with Shopee.

Lazada experience
Last week I order something and paid with debit card, 15 minutes later I realised it was the wrong item and cancelled the order, this was last Tuesday. Got notification that the cancellation was accepted and my money was refunded, but till today, Monday, haven't seen anything in my account.

Fatal crash at notorious Panthong bend leaves one dead, several injured
From the moment, many years ago when seat belts became compulsory, maybe 45 years ago, I was also against them. But now I couldn't drive without them, it's for your own safety.

Fatal crash at notorious Panthong bend leaves one dead, several injured
Never seen a thai staying on his own side of the road in a bend, so nothing out of the ordinary. I also wonder, despite the Isuzu having a signal that goes off if you don't have them on, whether they were wearing their seatbelts.

The killer of seven (or maybe more)…jing-joks
Congratulations on your cleaning the house of those vermin but you must have stirred up some comments again because oh,oh, how pathetic that is, and how mean you were to have unceremoniously unleashed the murder weapon on it. But I'm cut from the same cloth, I don't want them in the house either and if I see them they're going to die, you're talking about your washing machine but they can also get into an electrical socket with all its consequences. Or, which is also possible, in your computer, in the CD drive, and so on. So, now come on with your comments, and I don't care, it is an item that comes back regularly. P.S. What I did notice, if you live high up in a condominium, you are considerably less bothered by them, apparently they are afraid of heights.

British Tourist Hurt in Pattaya Hit-and-Run Accident
I see many motobikes while driving only look on the phone. No matter what time it was or whether the person had been drinking perhaps it was one of those

Prachuap Khiri Khan ranks 4th for Malaria infections in Thailand
That is only relative, incidentally, my understanding was that Malaria was dying out in Thailand and Dengue was much more prevalent.

Thailand Faces Population Crisis: Minister Calls for Action
Concerning taxing the foreigner in Thailand. Is it true if you purchase property in Thailand worth more than 4 million Thb, you have to pay 35% tax on it as well?

Thailand Faces Population Crisis: Minister Calls for Action
They call that in Europea transformation, they don't want that in Thailand either. Thailand for the Thais, we just hang around.

BBL bank photo copies of Visa page.
But did they check the bank book then or did you not have that with you and it sufficed to say you had a letter from the embassy.

BBL bank photo copies of Visa page.
That is worrisome, I always use an agent, and after getting a retirement extension, I withdraw the money from my account.

Thai man in BMW causes multiple crashes in Bangkok, 9 injured
How secretive the driver's age is, between 40 and 45 years old, that is suspicious. Could it sometimes be an acquaintance? But a very big crook to drive on after the first and subsequent collisions. Is he still worthy of a driving licence for the rest of his life, or is it, because of a well-known person, covered with the cloak of love.

Alcohol Sales Ban To Be Lifted at Thai Airports on Key Buddhist Holidays
They have a temporary amnesia regarding that. Perhaps the temporal will be replaced by the eternal, it is also possible, TIT.

British Couple Outraged Over £9 Tin of Heinz Beans in Thailand
Another example you give, ridiculous prices for ham and bacon, but I found the sulution, in Hua-Hin is a special shop for all types of pork. There I now buy for little money 2 kinds of pork to make ham, or bacon. Plenty of methods on YT how to prepare it, have been doing it for over half a year and never have to buy this from the shop again. Highly recommended, you just need an oven that you can set to 90º C, and a temperature gauge to measure the meat during cooking in the oven.

British Couple Outraged Over £9 Tin of Heinz Beans in Thailand
It is what I mentioned yesterday and many times before, there is no competitor, the entire Thai market is run by three or four stone-rich individuals in Thailand. They call the shots, and they make the prices

Why there is no 13 floor?
The building in Phuket where I used to live did not have a thirteenth floor either. When I asked my then-girlfriend why not, she replied 'that the thirteenth was left out because of the falang, who are superstitious in that.' So apparently it was done to protect the foreigner.
