  1. There are many insurance companies especially in uk who wont insure you now because of these kind of accidents so make sure you check you policy

    3 golden rules for Thailand............Just keep off motor bikes in Thailand...........Don't hire a jet ski.................and don't buy a bar girl a drink you will get hit hard if your going to buy them one make sure you tell them same price as yours!!

  2. even been on british t.v. about this scam best option just don't hire a jet ski!!

    I will say this one more time despite the expected vitriolic responses .... I once worked at Soi 9 police station volunteer desk (have since stopped doing that) and saw many, many of the disputes that ended up there. A very large proportion of the disputes involved real damage - often considerable - and the issue was always that the renters offered ridiculous compensations like 500 baht and/or no acceptable compromise could be reached. The "scams" on the beach that never reach the station (which is the last place the operators want to be) are not widespread even if regular and they are extremely difficult to judge in terms of whether real damage has been done, what is proper compensation if damage has been done and how to resolve things. It is a City Hall issue and until proper regulation is put in place the issues will remain.


    That is totally wrong.

    I remember being down the beach many times watching the scams being carried out.

    In fact I was even sitting on the beach with my gal one day when they scammed a bunch of middle class Thai kids. And believe me it was disgusting the way they surrounded them and intimated a bunch of young girls.

    Wake up mate just take a walk along the beach and watch the farce in action.

    And of course the police are silent partners with many of these operators as well.

    Heck I often see the police chatting with these guys and laughing and carrying on.

    It is blatant extortion nothing more nothing less.
  3. keep with LEO I had the runs when I first started with leo but once you get used to it I find it great for the morning after not many hangovers and plus IT GIVE YOU POWER!! I have tried them all and leo is the best....................drink what the Thai's drink!!

  4. Don't fall for anything just love them and leave them don't be stupid enough to fall ok I wait you please send me money my mama sick or my child have to go school............................they all got about 2 or 3 mugs sending them money I would not send them a pork pie............... in pattaya now and just see a lad took to the cleaners..............................have a good time give them a 1,000 bhat and forget them

  5. The Russians have spoilt Pattaya and other parts of Thailand I have never in my life met such rude people there manner towards the thai people are dreadful and to others as well....................I suggest the Russian tourists agents teach the people coming to Thailand some manners before they come to Thailand....................LIKE PLEASE AND THANK-YOU..........NO YOU CANT BRING YOUR OWN DRINK'S INTO BAR'S AND RESTAURANT'S NO YOU CANT TAKE YOUR OWN FOOD INTO BARS AND RESTAURANTS, AND WHEN YOU WALK PAST PEOPLE IN THE STREET LEARN TO MOVE ASIDE INSTEAD OF WALKING STRAIGHT THROUGH PEOPLE.

    Just don't know why these Russians don't have to have work permit's either!!............I been coming to Pattaya now for 17 years and cant wait for them all to leave for good.

  6. I thinking the "rice farmer" doesn't give a stuff about the exchange rate.

    He mostly works and lives his life without buying imported goods.

    Diesel price is fixed by the government, same price today as 5 years ago.

    But his land is worth 20x more than 13 years ago, so that might be good for him.

    If he is worse off, but it isn't the exchange rate that did it.

    As far as I can see worldwide, the only people that are better off now, are the elite few that own the world.

    if the bhat is weak let hope its keeps getting weak..................at 53.00 to the £1 its the best its been in years
