Krabi King

I can't disagree unfortunately. I've experienced the change.

Thailand is loosing it's traditional charm. Attractions are "manufactured". Development means McDonald's, Starbucks, more 7-Elevens. Unlimited visitors to islands and national parks. Lack of planning and the wrong idea about what proper tourists would come for. One thing I always wondered for example is why beach front roads in Thailand always have to be the busiest and most congested. Traffic free areas at the beach front with quality shops, restaurants etc and walking zones only would be so much more appealing. Lead the main traffic another way. But we all know that Thailand does things its own way, without much thought for alternatives. Some major improvements could be made quite easily, but unfortunately things move slowly.

New Orleans #1 for food? How so? America has no food culture 😆

7/11 Thailand is in the hands of CP, a Thai family conglomerate, who are the one of the biggest players in food, retail, pharma, telecom and banking.

"Ali-staire"

The title assumes a huge happening. But Phi phi has been open for diving all along. From the list of locations only 2 are at Phi Phi, which has probably around 20 sites total. On a side note: A park ranger in Krabi was sacked recently after reporting on his social media about anchor dumping on corals by a certain boat. Most likely by complaints from that boat owner. Connections and money still run the show.

Everyone their own, but it doesn't really matter what anyone thinks ... as long as this opportunity changes her life for the better 🙌

I thought it was about a new establishment opening in BKK... Ban the OP for a misleading title!

It was actually "3,2,1, see ya!" No joke. I've seen the video

Green plate taxis ... always in a hurry, running lights and tail gating.

I've been using Mobile Voip for over a decade. Easy to top up and easy to use. Good rates. https://mobilevoip.org/

I'm curious to know if there are any cases where rental shops have been sued by family members of people that had a (fatal) accident, for renting out a motorcycle without a proper driving license? Yes, I know the painstaking process of going through court here and you'd probably say Thai will protect Thai. But I'm just wondering if there are any known cases where a rental shop was held liable...

Obviously not for some

Can we also get rid of the outdated syphilis and elephantitis check ups please? Thank you!

It's a translation thing... It translates like that from languages of people who actually can speak another language (or 2) apart from English. Thought that would be interesting to know for the monolinguists here 😄
