Stupid German idiot should have just humbly complied, he didn't have a licence, then dragging his bike away - what utter arrogance! -Then he insulted a taxi a driver because he couldn't control his emotions even though he was absolutely in the wrong.  I would have felt like kicking him myself!

I'd ike to see you try. 

I  suggest one of us hires this particular moto taxi driver to take us to some secluded place on the dark side and challenge him to a proper one on one fight using the  Marquess of Queensberry Rules.

Let's see how that works out for him.

Why not use Bell bus service. 

Picks you up at the hotel or approved point and takes you to the bus station and connects with the big bus to Bangkok airport. 

240 baht each way pp.

Smart way to do it and someone else lugs your bags. 

Booking on line or from hotel. 

So, takes you to the bus station on pattaya nua and you get a ticket for 240?

The going rate from big c on Pattaya klang to the bus station on theppraya is 300 baht. It is even written on the wall board to the right of the front door. I have taken it occasionally when I need to buy a bunch of stuff at Big C.

Bangkok post ran a story reporting that the moto taxi driver received a 1000 baht fine for kicking the tourist in the face.

Hypothetically speaking, what would happen if the German guy got up from getting kicked in the face, and broke the moto taxi drivers jaw?

Let's say that other Thai men didn't jump in (unbelievable, but humour me). Would the German be the one in trouble?

I heard that two or three weeks ago they stopped this requirement. How recent were you there?

Sent from my SM-G900I using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app
 

Two weeks ago today.

1. Fire all police officers in the country.

2. Replace them with police officers recruited and trained by a first world country's police force.  

3. Actively root out, arrest, and convict with lengthy sentences any police officer committing a crime, even those collecting 100 baht in tea money.

4. Enforce all traffic laws. 

5. See tens of thousands of people not die in road incidents.

Does lane changing mean illegal lane changing? Is it without a turn signal or a dangerous lane change?

If on a tourist visa, you must register at your local immigration office within 24 hours. Every time I do, I see one or two guys arguing the point with the immigration officer. Guess who wins? The fine is 1800 baht, I believe. 

Is it necessary to your thread that we know you are gay?

I go now.

Didn't he see that big <deleted> truck?

I'll give 2-to-1 odds the pillion passenger is dead in a motorcycle accident within the year. 

"Personal trainers" in Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia learn their job from other personal trainers. There is no certification and their collective knowledge of exercise physiology is nearly zero. They will not properly assess the client and build a workout plan designed for them. They will use their phones during training sessions instead of using their limited cognitive skills to assess progress, strengths and weaknesses. It seems to be a racket, with other personal trainers fawning over the client so that she/he feels special. Save your money and study for yourself online. Try bodybuilding dot com for prepared exercise plans and do it yourself help.

I thought there was one on the ground floor at Big C Extra in Pattaya Klang. Donuts aren't my thing, so i could be mistaken.  Maybe it's a Dunkin Donuts. 

At my condo, most people do not shower before they swim. This includes ALL Russians and most Europeans.  Chinese guy yesterday stripped down to his underwear and got in without showering. Then he proceeded to vigorously rub down his neck and face with the pool water, cleaning himself off. He did a few laps; blowing his nose into the pool at each end.

Is there a way to complain, or will the security just laugh at me?

Soi dog fight same same.

Great stats.  I guess I was wrong (If the figures are correct, not inflated). But i never spent even close to $140 a day before I was an owner here . Do you guys?

It's all about the baht.

I do, and not only in Thailand, I travel to the Philippines and Vietnam to find them as well.

My wife doesn't mind and it gets my 90 day VISA jumps done.

I'm a Romance traveller.

Seriously?

If you marry a woman who was in the P4P game, even if she did it once, she sees all men in terms of "how mut you gib me."

The bigger question is why would you marry a whore ? It is absurd
