Usually 100 baht is just easier than figuring out percentages and such. I have tipped 10 baht once for a massage, but let the manager know why i was doing it as i was a regular there.

I have to start wondering reading all the news reports which is worse, Phuket or Pattaya. It seems more and more that Phuket is starting to get lower in the scales. I think the main difference so far is that we read about people having sex on the beach in Pattaya while I am sure a lot of people drink sex on the beach in Phuket. Personally with prices and everything, I read, Phuket really no longer appeals to me due to cost of trip and accommodations I can get almost the sme thing here in Patttaya for a lot cheaper.

Agreed but these are the ones that have been through Boot and are there for a long time. Does anyone know the percentage that stqay in after doing their 2 years.

The nuclear family is disappearing in all countries. Take a look at the number of fatherless children in the U.S. and the girls who want a baby so that they will have someting ot love and be like their friends.

Safety has little to do with it. The tourists they re looking for are the groups and they are so micromanaged they are the safest people here.

I think your no touching premise is dated Holding hands has been okay and is very prevalent in Thai society. Also being close together. Arm around waist seems to be catching on For me holding hands is constant as I am touchy feely

The challenge with vapes is that people don't know what is in them. Kids think it's cool. The government's challenge is tourism if you close sales then you p!ss off tourists. Better to control like they do cigarettes and have quality standards while selling at same location as cigarettes get the street stalls closed

The challenge that thailand has is teaching the students how to function in a real world. American companies are not going to be starting new businesses that create anything because of tarriffs and the benefits that TREUMP is giving them to stay. Thais need to start building things for Thais. Solar panels could in fact be one of those things. Suggestion creaste a solar panel systemthat can recharge some of these electic scooters

Hence THE DONNALD going after these countries with high tarrifs. I agree that factories are closing, but if they want to sell things, they are going to have to build them here. Just replacing made in China with made in Thailand stickers is not going to work.

i think this article will answer your questions https://www.bangkokpost.com/business/general/3009501/foodpanda-delivery-service-to-exit-thailand

The challenge that this country has is the same for any country or area that depends on tourism as it's main focus. If there is any downturn in economies it is going to affect them/ China has and is facing it's biggest bust period in a long time. That means that Chinese people are not gong to have the money to go on trips unless it is the ones set up with groups. Group tours may help some small hotels, but they are not going to boost the economy. The government must take a serious look at where things are made and what businesses there are. Imagine if Red Bull actually was made here in a factory. Imagine if Wacoal and other companies stopped producing outside the country. Thailand is in a sense, in the same boat as the U.S. in that most stuff is produced outside and shipped in. Does anyone remember the Chinese elephant pants stink In a sense all countries need to take a page out of the MAGA book and look at how they can make their countries great again.

Problem is that the EU has its doubts also. Thailand is going to actually have physical factories to show they make it here. This could be good for Thailand's people

Anything to try getting Thais not thinking about their wallets

Tried setting it up but mytello will not accept canadian phone numbers for contacts

The challenge I think is that most people do not have insurance, and even if they do, they probably don't have earthquake coverage

The challenge is that this is not a school like the U.S. You can not send a child to the Director he/she does not care. he truth is that most Thai parents do not know what to do with their kids and suspending them is the worst hing as the kids stay home and do nothing but play games unsupervised at home. The challenge is that a student, no matter what happens, passes, there is nothing to it. The kids know this. I am not saying that un fettered corporal punishment is a great thing BUT what I am asking is what are the alternative. Remember the only thing most teachers know is corporal punishment and have no idea what to do. You can not send a kid outside the room They don't care. There is no punishment that you can count on.

Did you not read what Tony said. His lips may not have moved, but his first puppet said it for him. But on the other hand people should listen to her I think it is a great Idea. Put Prawit in control, do you really think he is giong to be faithful if he shows up PPP and BJT would have over 220 votes in opposition. Not a good place for Thaksin to be, considering that the PTP kicked Prawit out of their last group LOL

@jjstephen how did it work out

It's great to say give them More. But where does the money come from. Thais are lucky would you like to have the north Carolina bill after losing your house. A solution is to estimate repaircosts for the whole condo and pay condos to repair everyone

The challenge though becomes what do you do with kids that act up fight or ignore teachers The challenge is that there's no alternative in government or semi government schools I would love to hear your suggestions what to do when somchai or Lisa A tell you to you to f off Fight in classroom Or are disruptive

There has always been something that ptp lays it's life on and loses could this be it. Unless a company clean as fresh snow comes in this is doomed. They would be better off outlining how they have a major company coming in to set up a theme park. The casino is dead no one trusts Thai politicians to run it properly

Yeah guarantee that somchai who graduated 99 out of 100 25 k to work at rotten ronnies

Yes but she is not Thai if she was teaching English the Thai teachers would not have complained
