  1. A lot of new Somtam shops coming. With a special less spicy flavor!
  2. Looks like world is a better place today. Or at least surat thani
  3. "I dread finding out what the usage results of this median will be upon its completion" - Many bikes and cars crashed to the median while passing or avoiding others, causing unnecessary carnage and human suffering. - Quite a few cars stuck on their bottoms on top of the median while trying to make u-turn over it. - Causing unnecessary queues when someone stops on left lane so that no space to bypass from the right due to the median (even if no coming traffic) - Hawkers selling amulets and flowers standing on it Thus can not say it will be useless or unused! Wait for year or two it will be wiped off, just like the Watboon roundabout. Good source of income for officials.
  4. Over 300 tested in a local nightlife venue and not a single drug positive found...pretty much as credible as no prostitution found in Soi 6.
  5. I've had so many experiences of clogged aircon filters being the reason for ac not being able to cool the room regardless of compressor running full time that have developed habit of checking ac cleanliness first thing after taking the room. More often than not the maintenance is complete neglected.
  6. Type keto into Google maps search and you can see few. Good or not I don't know
  7. How about brake failure, slippery road and jumping electric poles then? Clear without saying that lack of brain does not cause any. Except maybe for foreigners!
  8. Strong enforcement with hefty penalties makes wonders even in Thailand, just look at the quantity of section 112 violations annually as extreme reference. Even with 2000 baht fine with enforcement would change the scene fairly quickly.
  9. " were acting as Thais" Acting as Thai? - I understood she is Thai, no need to act.
  10. Danilo probably ventured into wanchai bars and met his country ladies who do not expect him to report when he goes to poo, rather teached him something more enjoyable that his mother never told him about. Danilo is pissed to mama for not teaching him all that years ago, he missing all the fun. Rest is history.
  11. Goverment and TAT certainly disagree. Bangkok and Thailand shall not be any list for backpackers, rather for big spending ones if you ask them!
  12. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzuki_K_engine#K12B Suzuki K engine is used in Ciaz and Swift and is indeed a chain engine, thus the reaction in shop if you try to convince them to chain the belt. I guess practically lasts for life in regular oil changes done properly.
  13. I also wondered the efforts many land owners are willing to take to avoid minor tax. Matter of principle I guess, at any cost!
  14. Oh...not nasty at all in my experience...
  15. How about a fully sponsored gf or wife of a farang living & working outside of Thailand who goes with other guys on the side when she feels like (when he not here)? Does that qualify as "sideline"?
  16. Tourist that had damaged thai tourism, not the operator that puts tourists life at danger TIT
  17. I have good experiences over the years, made insoles for my shoes to get rid of foot pains. Dutch guy who seems to know his stuff.
  18. Surprised a Somchai did not require a ransom for his valuable piece.
  19. all makes sense. do you recall anything mentioned about the purchase price per unit for these cars? Likely about double the RRP of BMW Thailand that has been booked to govt expenses for these...
  20. almost everything went according to plan. 10% still found lingering in national assets was seen as only minor discrepancy vs the plan, thus not seen as further action as more important things to focus on. If 20%, maybe some action would have been taken...
  21. waste of money for someone is a free valuable benefit for someone else...probably most repainted and in personal use of RTP officers
