ZAKY

I never had such a problem with tuk-tuk , never got beaten by them coz i leave this for others, myself never ride on one! Simple!

One thing is sure is that the woman is getting high demand from foreigners for marriage! 

Foreigners are not allowed to clean their condos not allowed to wash their cars, not allowed to cook their food, i dont know if Its also illegal for them to brush their teeth, shower and massage themselves or pay their bills. 

A bit confusing in the case where one has members of family coming from far away places to stay in ones condo without paying any rent. View that there are many cases where the members of a thai family of a wife or girl friend are considered as members of family for the foreigner. 

And how about the foreigners who promptly settle their bills and do not owe a single cent to thai hospitals? Are they going to get a reward or a medal? 

What kind of things you dont hear today!!! The cost of school uniform is now becoming a problem! What next?  ask student to simply stay at home and study in front of a computer in order to save on transportation cost! Isnt to solve the problem on cost of having to find costly garments that school uniform has become a must. 

This make me remember the night i landed in BKK, i was asked to pay THB 1,500 for a trip to Asok. The driver was a Thai and the car not a taxi one. 

Bad exemple! He should be sanctionned as he is supposed to represent the law! 

May be if your skin is white 

Who started first? 

Its not the THB 2000 a big saving compared to what we spend per day in thailand, number of visitors have now got the taste of neighbouring countries like myanmar or cambodge. Beleiving that the fallen manna from heaven will last indefinitely by placing the bar one notch higher each time is not always a good idea. During the hunt of overstayers, those genuine visitors who have faced the experience of military checks of their id’s by 30 commandos in public can tell how traumatic this can be. 

Bullshit !!! The people of the resto knows well that bank will never accept such payment and will confirm with the card holder! They have just anticipated! That’s all. 

Exorbitant but if they will have to lower their price, they will also lower the quality of the service and this is where the problem lies 

May be because of the negative impact on arrival of regular visitors, i have been myself victim of the excess of zeel from being stop in public and escorted by an army of immi- like a criminal to my hotel room coz i was not in possession of my passport. 

What this free visa will serve? Its nothing compared to what we spend in Thailand. What is the use when we have to face squads of 30 of your soldiers stopping and humiliating visitors in the street in public by searching passports and if not in possession then escort to hotel or residence to check again. 

How many of those who are genuine tourists were arrested because they did not have their passports on them? They do not mention! Its so humiliating now to stopped by 15 men in uniform in a public place to see people looking at you as if you are a criminal to ask you for your passport, if you are not in possession then the matter is more complicated when they take you to the place where you live to get your passport, even when they are satisfied that you are legal, still no excuse of all inconveniences caused to you!

Its not his fault if the candidate is so attractive! At least the poster would have serve for something positive. 

Remaining westerners are the ones that no choice as all their funds either locked in property or in wife’s otherwise many have already switched to neighbouring countries  for their hospitality and welcomming nature which are no more here. Nobody who is wealthy spending his own money here likes to be thrown in the same basket and get the humiliation of being checked openly in public by the immigration police in the same way as those who are wanted for overstaying.

300 million baht is a drop in the ocean compared to what comes in. 

Most of the injuries were probably caused by Thais in the first place anyway . 

Try making the place safer for tourists !

Well said

Its time to introduce low cost flights by cutting down ticket cost where checked baggage is payable and carry-on free. This will leave passengers with a choice to decide. 

What will happen to thais stealing jobs in foreign countries, will they be called to come back to serve their country instead?

Arrest, jail, fine and deportation for a cigarette? What is wrong with ecigs? Is it more dangerous than driving without a licence? How about cannabis?
