Was it because of watching a Thai soap or was it the volume level she was using to listen to the Thai soap - if she had it turned up to the level my neighbours use then I sympathise - just going round there now to lay into them with a hard object.......

By the way - I use Fedex a lot and have never had a problem - similarly DHL and EMS - all good in my book.

I recently imported some goods from Japan - te first package was a golf driver shaft and some grips for golf clubs - not very valuable - the duty , according to EMS was 600 THB.

The second package was a custom made Golf driver complete - very expensive - the duty , according to EMS was 300 THB - work that one out because I can't .

coming to Thailand for 4-5 days every 2 months to sign papers - coming to Thailand for 4-5 days every 2 months to shag himself stupid more like - never heard of scanned documents ?

He could sign and scan everything without coming to Thailand and the work permit is irrelevant.

Really? I thought you had to send your old passport along with the application for a new one? It being proof of who you are etc..

You obviously do not read FO updates wherein it is written that UK passport holders residing in Thailand are advised to keep their old passports and not to submit them with any new passport applications.

Not disclosing where I would choose as those of us there don't want it flooded by Farangs but I ear that Khon Kaen is a reasonable place with a fairly active expat community.

This strikes me as the results of too many low lifes exploiting the system - I have been out here since 84 and have seen the mucking about so many tourists do .

Get a retirement visa..... makes life much easier.

Drink whiskey ......

Draconian measures must also be taken to prevent the insidious invasion of so-called American English so that our children do not suffer the fate of English speakers in Singapore, China, the Philippines and Malaysia whose English vocabulary, spelling and accents have been corrupted.

This guy isn't a victim.

He is a former inmate and a violent, abusive and dangerous alcoholic.

This is the second incident from him in less than a week.

He needs to be taken into custody by the BIB before he hurts some one or kills himself...or both.

Earlier in the week he threw every bit of glass and crockery in his house, plates, cups, saucers, light fittings, out on to the street in front of his yard. This was in the evening around 8pm at night. This is a busy but small thoroughfare and both lanes were scattered with shards of broken glass and pottery. A dozen or so people had the tires on their cars and motorbikes shredded as a result of this lunatic and his acting out. He was hurling abuse and kitchenware at several young Thai girls that were commuting home from work on their scooters. To my utter amazement the police were called but did nothing because the Greek was out of his tree on booze and he had locked himself inside his yard behind the gate.

He claims to be broke and has no money for food. But have a look at the photos in the article...How come he has money for cigarettes and booze?

This loser needs to be locked up and then deported.

If this is the case then please pull the story as well as locking him up and deporting him.

The police want to intercept the money - imagine that !!

Run by drug convicts - it has been suggested in posts on this site that Farang biker clubs handle all the drug trafficking - this report must therefore , surely be wrong............... or was the dipshit that made the post about Farang Biker clubs wrong ?

Whatever is the truth , he will never see a court room - he'll be in Singapore by next week in the Red Bull VIP lounge at the Marina Bay Road Circuit.

Good job - nice to read - have they now covered the well I wonder ?

Shouldn't believe anything from people who are backed by a Malaysian government that is corrupt, dishonest , untrustworthy , racist and supports terrorism .

You guessed it - I DON"T LIKE 'EM.

Remind me again why a muslim would be talking to a prostitute in a street filled entirely with bars selling alcohol.

Once again - he's like all the other good Muslims that come to LOS to do the things they are not allowed at home...

Stupid is as stupid does........

Easy one - take hammer to it or flush it down the bog.

Entirely motivated by the UK tax system and hedonistic desire.....

Don't go is the best idea - if you have no choice , pretend to be tee total or you'll end up paying for the whole village to be pissed up for the duration of the stay.

Don't take money and don't promise anything to them.

Dynasty on Soi Nana - been going there for years - good management and security.

Rooms at rear are good and quiet but the front rooms are OK too.
