What you look for in a massage ?
kingstonkid replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Been going for massage for 11 years COVID caused a break and cost me my favourite masseuse. For me. I want a masseuse that listens to what I want. To that end I tip well rave when I get a good massage and stick with the same spa. The manger knows what I want and the girls all know I tip well and a good massage is my happy ending. -
It actually makes sense. If you consider that as long as they are owed the money and losing money on the books people can not get raises nor can they effectively hire staff and possibly make repairs. If they go on strike the air pollution will be the least of people worries. Imagine all the vehicles on the road.

There used to be a gold shop in Silom that had a main store in Chinatown. I can't remember where it is can someone help me

They can not be put into prison until they go to court. They can not go to court until there is an investigation to prove that they did wrong. Putting them in a mickey mouse position and twiddling their thumbs is the best you can do until the investigation is over. once completed, they can then be discharged and arrested. Are they guilty probably but probably is not Good enough in court.

What you will do if it will happens to you??
kingstonkid replied to Cuadrado's topic in Rent or Buy a Condo
So you seem to be fixated on this. There is not a person here that has not been scammed at one point or another. The simple solution is to get over it. put your big boy pants on and get on with your holiday. The amount of time you will spend trying to get something from nothing is going to ruin your holiday time. First, you do not know if the name you have is real, you do not know if the phone number is real or a burner, and you do not know where this place was supposed to be. What are the police supposed to do? In Canada they would simply say ok we will file a report and if anything turns up we will let you know. Then it would go in the tourist got scammed pile. Yo obviously came here for a holiday the suggestion here is GET OVER IT GET DRUNK GET LAID HAVE FUN. after get over it the order for the rest is up to you. -
Depends on where you go and who the girls are with The funny thing I laugh at is the girls that go swimming with their clothes on but their clothes consist of a white blouse and bra. Talk about a panic when they got back into the boat the GF made me give one my t-shirt, and she gave the other one a towel. Girls here dress conservatively depending mostly on where they are going and what their aim is. I am starting to see a lot of tight and not-so-conservative clothing on young thais at Siam Paragon when they are with BF The other time the young ones are not so modest is when they are on the hunt. Hell even the girls that work at NANA or in the bar area dress relatively conservatively.

Could and should AI replace teachers.
kingstonkid replied to up2you2's topic in Primary & Secondary Education
They tried ai teachers it was called zoom class. The challenge with ai is that it is then self paced learning. Not good here. The challenge here is that so many Schools are dependant on money from parents that they have to pass somchai. I have a private student I tutor. Until he came to me he never answered a question in school. P5 and just sits in class and says nothing. Teacher never asks and he automatically passes. Mom thinks it's great that I keep pushing him. But is he ready for p6 nope but his English spelling and reading is better. -
That's why I would suggest getting something close by for a few days. 40 minutes is what it takes for to get to bkk from my apt. Lol I don't know if many condo that are renting there are a lot of apartments though. Some new stuff is going up all the time. As to wse moving I am not sure just know the major tenant is pulling out of the building. Check out rangsit residence near lotus so only a few minutes to wse might be a good starting point Do not look at anything klong 3or higher it is nice but a bit of a trip.

Thai Whistleblower Goes After Suspended Minister
kingstonkid replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The funny thing is that the rich do pay a large share of the taxes. The challenge ethat the rich all have businesses that while paying a lot in tax also pay a lot through company taxes -
I am sure there was a reason back in 2008 for this law In this case, it was the Student Uniform Act, under which non-students can be fined for dressing up as students and then misbehaving in ways that might harm the reputation of a school. That was enough for the Office of the Basic Education Commission to issue a warning to tourists.But the Ministry of Education said on Thursday that the visitors did not have any intention to make fun of any educational institutions.The ministry’s regulations related to uniforms were aimed only at preventing wrongdoers from wearing uniforms to falsely blame a school or to cover up a crime, the ministry said.

Lots of places of various prices in the area If WSE is for Wall Street then my suggestion is to rent a place for a week or month, which is easy to do here. Then ask the staff for any recommendations. I imagine you are not the only expat going to work there. Email one of the others and ask where they are living. Futurepark is very close depending on where and if WSE is moving I noticed that the building they share with Office mate is being vacated. Rangsit is actually a lot easier to acclimatize in as most people are willing to help and there is not you expat you must be tourist we rip you off. Wat Phra Sri Mahathat ???? are you sure you are working in Rangsit and not at WSE CHang wattana

Had to laugh went out with a Thai woman, and she could not understand that I wanted to have sex twice in a week. Asked her what her ex husband was like and she said 5 times a year. Quick wham bam more of a duty. She never wondered about why he had a girlfriend and now was her ex lol. Young people mostly males think that it is their right to have what they want and that the girl's wishes do not matter.

Even better is to have your daughter go with you when you do it -
88% of Thailand bank accounts have less than 50,000 THB
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Don't forget Expats on retirement or marriage extensions ???? -
I think that there is more to it, but yes, it is possible. Other things to take into consideration is women are busy making carreers, families can't afford a lot of kids, and the old Thai style of raising kids where Grandparents looked after the kids and the oldest child looked after grandparents is no longer effective. Though you have to give the teens credit they are doing their best unfortunately to add to the birth rate, teen pregnancies are on the rise again up 47% in 2021. It is such a problem that the government has mandated that schools have to keep thee girls in classes. The challenge is not just here but also in the rest of the world

Thai health officials worried about growing number of fat kids
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The challenge for most of these people and it is the same around the world is that Parents have not learned to say NO. Instead of letting johny or Susie throw a temper tantrum and punishing them they give them what they want. -
Paetongtarn Shinawatra and the history of pregnant prime ministers
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It should be mandatory that all PM candidates contest a seat and run for government. As to her having a baby, maybe it is part of the Biden/Fetterman playbook from the U.S>. Have a medical excuse why you can not be out in public and get sympathy. No matter what, it is not as if she is the one that will be raising the child I am sure that nannies and other family members are already set to do so.
