Buy insurance: British tourist issues warning after moped crash
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
OOPS worded it wrong. Should have said there is a lot of explaining I agree it is not up to her but on the other hand it was not up to her to go to the media with this. I just wish all media would tell the whole story of things not just n this case but in all neews. -
Buy insurance: British tourist issues warning after moped crash
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
How does a 20k baht bill become 20k pounds She still has a lot of explaining to do. No offence but I think there is more to this story like what happened to the house and the people that live in it. -
The one thing about this site is that we can agree to disagree. I am not sure where you come from but I was raised that if a friend was doing something dangerous to himself or others you told him and let him make his own decision after that.

The fact is that for every cop that is on the take and it is usually the older ones there are cops that are trying to do their jobs. He is right though that the police at the bottom are not paid enough to be able to live let alone support a family. I am a firm believer that they should be paid a living wage and then if they get caught doing something wrong be punished. A senior member of the police should be paid well but if found being corrupt not only do they get charged BUT if found guilty they forfeit everything they have as well as their pension.

It is what friends do Especially if asked. If you were to get in a car that had iffy brakes and were going on the highway if a friend new about them would you not be <deleted> after you wrecked on the road?

CanadaSam The inactive post is the same here as it is in Canada. If you are thought or charged, or the police want to investigate the first thing that any business has to do is move the person being investigated or charged somewhere that he cannot be involved. The last time I checked the innocent until proven guilty is still in play.

Goat my 2 baht First warn him just as an aside. Get him to get protection and talk to a lawyer here so that he can cover himself as much as possible in the case. hey do pre nupt here. Second thing You never know she may be on the level and want to get out of the business. I know a lot of girls roughly her age that are working girls, and if the right man came along and was willing to support them and show them the affection they would jump at the chance. Depending on where she is working she may not be making a lot and sees all the young hotties taking her place. My worry is the 22 year old son. Anyway you look at it you can be in trouble. If it all goes pear shape and yo did not warn him he will be upset. But as a friend, if you tell him what you think and do it as a friend over a pint then let congratulate him and tell him that you really hope t works for him then you have said what you had to and let it drop.

There is no way they could be protected. Too much is happening with imm also when they arrest the people with the fake Visa they have to take out the source -
Chuwit claims "brothel" owned by well known businessman set to reopen
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The questoin though is why is he doing this? And it is not to make Thailand a better place. -
It is more a big city problem than a Thailand problem. To put it in perspective, does anyone remember what it was like in your home country? I live in Pathum Thai, and everything here moves quite quickly as we do not have the huge numbers ll wanting it now. People here go prepared with books, friends or phones.

It's actually interesting. If the police have a reason to keep Suk clean they can do it. Just had to be there for ASEAN summit. Cops all over and all the stalls closedi have also noticed that the street bars are gone.

Taxi Scams Remain Top Complaint Among Foreign Tourists in Thailand
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If tourists are going to be stupid enough to get in taxis with no meter they deserve to get fleeced. These are the same people that will argue and want a lower price for a t shirt then walk out and get a tuk tuk with no concerns. -
Just imagine what Nana would look like if they enforced all the rules about vaping sex toys and prostitution. Wow would it be quiet.

The only girls he us going to find that can travel and look after him are uni students if classes are out or working girls in bar or spa. No matter what or who he gets it will cost him for their time and clothes and meals and possibly a generous donation to mamasan favorite charity. If he was in bkk I would say take him to nana and see if any of the girls in the street interest him. He can always take it for a test run.

Joe salad has good salads and meals for a lunch. At Siam paragon, I usually go to the fresh salad location. In Sala Deng, I go to sunrise taco It all depends on what you want.

My suggestion is simple to move out of BKK I live in Rangsit and can tell you things are definitely better and cheaper the BKK. If you need to get in the city the BTS is now running very smoothly. Immigration is easier to deal with Stores actually want to sell to you. people are friendlier Housing is definitely cheaper.

I agree, but I think it was not as organized as it is now. Going to be interesting to see what the next show brings if Prayut does not do anything. My question, though, is who do you have to do the investigation if the head of MPB and, therefore his underlings are involved Sounds like they need to bring in the BIG JOKE team and let them go at it. As stated BJ is the most trusted police official there is right now by both the tourists and the locals. As an aside, I just got an award for this being my first post in 12 years ????

A shadow looms large over the Pheu Thai Party
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The problem is that if PT wins and no matter who is PM they will only be like JOE in the U.S. A figurehead for an outside voice. In this case Thaksin. Prawit will be a voice of the military The only way to resolve this is to have a stron opposition that can force them to play nice.
