I think I recognise one or two of them....but to be fair I may not have been in my right mind at the time.

Very business like as I recall and nowhere near as much fun as a Thai girl to be honest.

 

And to be completely honest on of the Ugandan (I think) girls was one of the best looking woman I have ever seen (apart from the dreadlocks). She could easily have been a supermodel. Tall and with the body and face of a goddess. Skin like silk.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
There are already beautiful gazelles out there, but they are rare.
Some have a rack that can only be found in african or south american women.
With very few, when they stand, you can actually put a coffee cup on their buttocks without it falling down.

Yes Thai Immigration does have signs with the 20K requirement.

LOL
A person who wears shorts, slippers and has untidy long hairs = no entry.
This would exclude the half of all Pattaya visitors.
Think this is probably not an official legal text.

I got a condo in Thong Lo with all my belongings. I got my friends here and my training. 

Maybe you can call your friends to come to the airport with 20,000 Baht.

He's probably married to a Brit and she's out on the piss so he's now got to write his own posts....now I understand why he's hating on us.

hey no way.
No hating here please.
I go now out for some fun.
I wish everybody a long and healty life.
I feel as a European and will meet hopefully a nice girl from france.
I hope all Brexiteers keep there fingers crossed. 555
Peace.

Harsh? I'm not commenting on his grasp of the English language. History covers all languages..esp one where millions died, to not know those dates has nothing to do with it. I guessed he was from the continent from his name.  Oh and he was being nasty to begin with.....so there. ?

I am fully with you on this:
one where millions died.
This should never happen again.
What can be better if all countries work together.

I think you find that English is his native tongue.

 

All of his posts on other threads are in grammatically perfect English.

 

Only these few are in broken English as if trying to look like a Johnny Foreigner.

When i see you on the next fullmoon Party, a beer for you is on my tap.

Trenches in the 20s??..extra sausage  ? and we are all punks ? . Oh come on. Just like the other unhelpful comments from the continent. I take it tomach that's where your from.  I honestly can't believe the hatred at times.  

 

 

I am sorry about this.
But this Brexit whining hurts.
Like there are some steal the money from UK people.
Here some EU programms for all europe countrys:
http://www.welcomeurope.com/list-european-funds.html
The money that is paid by the EU members, and how it is used is policy of all states.
The UK government has also approved it.
It is annoying for me to pretend that there is an over-governed power that determines everything.
This is bull shit.

We want nothing more.

 

It is the EU states and Frau Merkel in particular who are making all of the noise.

 

TH UK has never threatened the EU with punishment. The UK has not placed stupid financial demands that cannot be justified on the EU. For 40+ years we have been a net contributor to the EU paying our way for projects that do not help us one bit. Go to Spain and see how the EU money is wasted on motorways and airports that no one uses.

 

Noise? It's all coming from the EU. And of course, no one forced you to read or post on this thread, that was your choice just as leaving the EU is ours.

It is all good.
Bye bye with a tear in the eye from good friends.
So good luck.
Hope you can get your better deal.

We had a referendum. We voted to leave the EU together with all that this implied.

 

If you accept the remain beliefs (which the majority do not) then we are led to believe that information regarding what happens afterwards was withheld. Whose fault is that? If the remain campaign was lacking in information, remainers only have themselves to blame.

 

Now think of what else could have happened.

 

Had Labour won the election, we would have given just about everything including the 100 billion euros and the kitchen sink to the EU just to be able to trade and also be under EU law. The UK would have been reduced to a vassal state. A fate worse than staying in the EU.

 

So before all of you remain voters continue to criticise TM and run down the UK, just remember that we could have been the first subservient colony of a super state called the EU on it's way to world domination by Brussels under German leadership.

Yes, there are the old hatreds from the trenches from the 1920s.
Totally ignoring the fact that the Uk has been involved in EU policy for more than 40 years.
The English have always got their extra sausage.
Own currency, British discount and no Schengen member .
The punk is an invention of the islanders.
So go for it, nobody cares.
The idea of a united Europe does not taste anybody.
So please go, and make not so much noise.
Thank you..

Respect for her.
She is a remainer but has to make the work for the brexiters, which have all run away with a clamped tail.

I guess Ivanka has not spoken to the Chinese president about the jailed journalists who have made a report on the textile factories where she produce her fashion collection.

I am old enough to remember when the USA led the world! A moral, liberal, crusading, super power!

 

How sad to see leadship being given away so cheaply. What on earth do Trump and his mob of dissatisfied Americans think they are doing? Putin, Xi and Merkel are the ones showing the way now.

 

How sad to see the USA brought SO low SO quickly ?

This is true.
A president without visions for this planet on which we all live.
The global problems do not stop at the US borders.
The melting of the polar caps can be easily understood by every 8 year old in photosequences and satellite photos from recent years.
Overpopulation, spread of deserts, increasing scarcity of drinking water, microplastics in the seas, extinction of many animal species, hunger, droughts, migrations, wars. Trump does not seem to have the necessary intellect to understand the task associated with his position. He is not a visionary who can show the way to a better world, rather a toddler. The only thing that makes him strong is military force and the nuclear weapons, nothing else. Ethically, morally, Ideally, he is a zero. A selfish, golfing billionaire who is only interested in himself and his personal well-being.

Every farmer who can repeat the poem error-free, should get a 50kg sack of fertilizer for free.

Who is chasing previously convicted criminals to recover millions or billions of baht taken from the thai economy and taxes not paid.

 

Yeah, you are right.
Now, all states purchases are 100% free of corruption, completely transparent and fully coordinated with the will of the people.
Hopefully you will not slip out on your mucus track.

I understand your cynicism, and I share it. But it is the law.  I guess that in practice, if they don't want to prosecute a school director, then they also won't want to prosecute the foreigner for not having the work permit - since guilt on the part of a foreigner would mean guilt on the part of the school director.

"But it is the law."
Yeah.
But who makes the law?
What is the intention from that law?
Is that a good law?
Law can be right or wrong.
Bad or good.
This law threatens people who only work for there food, with 5 years of imprisonment, same as criminals who have robbed a bank.
Unreasonably high this punishment.
 

THAI has reached an initial agreement with Airbus to exchange necessary information and jointly evaluate the potential development of a TG MRO Complex Development at U-Tapao.

They have an Agreement to exchange information, and to check if u-Tapao is at all a possible location. Not more.

Until 2021 there is still much to be done. Visa and work permits for all foreign specialists, Import tax percentages for aircraft spare parts, Shareholder rights and voting rights. I guess airbus will not contribute for a 49% share the whole know how.

CP is the greatest food company in thailand and a very influential and powerful company. I am sure that this company has no problems with the labor authorities, in contrast to small and medium-sized enterprises. 

Without corresponding connections, the application of a work permit is an endless paper war and depends on the daily whim of the official clerk.

177 - 0

No one sees a problem?

No one has a better idea for a better law?

That is sad.

That would be a good deal at an average 1.7 Million per car.

 

I guess I'm not invited to the party.

Here is the match.

A super car for 1.7 mio, tax free and legal after. Bargain.

i was looking  for a second car, i looked at the swift and found that the road noise was bad, i narrowed it down to an attrage, but now thinking about the note, 565,000 for the lower spec, 640,000 for the top model, both with alloys, automatic and push button start, the top model has intelligent 4 way around view cameras, forward collision warning, emergency braking and lane departure warning.

My wife bought the new Note top model. She has negotiated hard and got many extras on top. Leather seats, usb driverseat armrest, acoustic back sensors, dash cam, sunshades, carbon rain gutters, rubber mat set, fully comprehensive insurance for one year, all admission charges and a full fueltank.  Also the split back bench in the top model is useful. The car is 20 cm longer than the Swift. Long wheelbase and plenty of space in the fond. The note is not as flat as the Swift, in the interior the roof height is very good. Motorization is a bit thin at 80 ps and 1.2 liter, but is sufficient for Thai roads. Soothing automatic transmission. The kickdown is always enough to overtake on the country roads. The car convinced us with regard to price / performance compared to the Swift. Honda Jazz and Mazda 3 are significantly higher in price. The 3 meters cars like mazda 2, etc. were for us clearly too small.

The school director does not seem to have thought about the effects of his order. It represents the existing level of education very well.

“Be focused and correct things, one after another. People’s happiness is in our hands,” read the final lines of his morale-boosting verse. 

What happens if the rulers do not make the right things?

Where is the necessary corrective?

Happiness is always there where people can participate and co-decide. 

I forgot how the word is called but it starts with a "d".

Slowly it becomes ridiculous,

this kindergarten level

Anyway.
I think it's a good thing that the new employment law for foreigners is / will be stopped.
Actually, only the penalties were increased and the real problem was not solved.
At least 120 days to think about the whole thing.

Labor rights need to be more differentiated and produce specific solutions for different stakeholders and sectors.
For the Chinese workers and designers who are to build the high-speed train, specific solutions from the perspective of labor law have already been proclaimed.
Specific, case-oriented implementing regulations would be appropriate.

For example:
Special work permits for the masses of Burmese, Lao and Cambodian factory workers and housemaids.
Special work permits for the workers in the tourist resorts.
Special work permits and labor rights for the many workers on the fishing boats.
Special work permits for the many foreign English teachers.
Special work permits for foreigners who want to work voluntarily.
Special work permits for foreigners who are married to Thai people. Here, foreign husbands/spouse must also be allowed to support their Thai family by working.
etc.
And the whole should be bureaucratically simple.
Thailand needs foreign workers, experts and know-how for its economic development.
It is important to legalize the many foreign workers.
Would also eliminate corruption and the traffickers.
And hard penalties for slave traders.
This requires a clear differentiation in labor legislation and not the current sledgehammer with high penalties uniform for all.
