I cannot imagine any more compulsive viewing than watching a bunch of Thai women talk......

Maybe they will also eat or shop - riveting stuff - however I can get to see all that in the local market without a TV. I would hazard a guess that the stall holders in the market have a bit more upstairs than anyone who would take part in such nonsense as well.

Russian tourism up by 30%.

That's 30% more drugs , 30% more money laundering, 30% more caucasian prostitutes , 30% more drunken brawls and worst of all 30% more great obese ugly Russian women lying around like beached whales on the seafront every day..

it happens everywhere unfortunately - there is a culprit - the cringing human rights do-gooder mafia who won't let right thinking people string up paedophiles.

if they were to step away from political correctness towards what is right ,there might be a chance.

anyone who abuses a child has lost their human rights already.

They need extra sales staff to unload all the ya ba and ya ice they have seized in the last month or so is all....

World Heritage site = tourism= money.......

A chance though for Thai army officers to get even more medals - they all seem to have a bucketful.

I do not use Non 'O' but several of my associates tell me that Singapore is easy - surprised ? I was.

Obviously another example of good Muslims .......... if they come to Thailand to engage in activities that are prohibited in their own country then they deserve whatever they get - stay at home !

But then most tourists to Songkhla are Thai!

Sorry Stocky but you will find if you go there that most are Malaysian - buses full of them every weekend.

This is not uncommon and for all the obvious reasons however, it amazes me that Singapore Immigration Officials would imagine anyone wanting to come to Singapore unless they had to or anyone staying longer than absolutely necessary.

What is the attraction of staying in an overpriced open prison populated by persons incapable of independent thought or action, manipulated by a Government that is only interested in profiteering from multi national corporations.

You wouldn't think of living in a shopping Mall at home so why stay in Singapore.

You got it - I detest the place........

World's dumbest question ? !!!

Just enough farangs to have a party now and then , exchange books and movies, get a decent game of golf whenever, and to take or leave as to socialising in town.

Where ? - no chance of me telling........

This could run forever as every couple have different circumstances - mine are my business.

Says a great deal about the quality of an Eton education if he had to get someone to translate it for him.

What is the hassle about going to a translator ?

It costs little and clears up any possible anomalies - money well spent , I would say.

IT should be a global rule that anyone at any political protest who masks up or wears a hoodie should be arrested immediately - or shot on sight.

Interior Ministry largely unconcerned about everything ( except money ).

That 90% of what you get told by other Farangs in bars about living in LOS is total BS and that a good lawyer is worth every penny whenever you want to do something business wise.

Also wish I'd known I was going to stay for 30+ years , I would have got a VIP visa and been relieved of making all those flights and visa runs.

I am 58 and not grumpy generally - must be because I am content with who I am , who I am with, where I live and how I live and my life in general however.........

When I see people from my native country behaving like animals in my adopted country IT SEVERELY PISSES ME OFF - since these persons are generally younger than me , perhaps they construe my attitude as that of a grumpy old man and perceive me to be just that .

Perception can be altered by circumstance....look at yourself before you look at others.

You can do the registration , get a UK birth certificate and the passport application all in one hit .

Easy answer - stay away from all things Malaysian .

Conspiracist theory subscribers are going to have a field day with this one.......

From the headline, I thought...., oh never mind!

Same here

Me too - disappointing really - nothing would surprise me though with this govt.

We have a local cop who just gives his boss 30% of his salary and never goes to work but he is always calling around and sitting in my garden drinking beer...... he is my next door neighbour and I sometimes play golf with him as well .

BS mak mak on this thread.
