  1. Corcasian I believe is the correct term .
  2. Not far from the worst . Not every country that has a majority of people not knowing how to use the roads safely and often no license . The facts are not distributed for a good reason .The Thai authorities have no desire to warn off potential tourist's.
  3. The numbers should be shown to incoming tourists and every immigration office for there evaluation of risk . In my opinion the numbers killed on the roads are not displayed to the world well enough . That has nothing to do with being morbid .
  4. I was surprised at the price of 4600 baht for the front headlight set on the honda click 160 . The 125 price is under 1000 baht . The lights are still working but the glass is cracked after a grab rider turned right in front of me staring at his phone .
  5. I have seen policeman riding motorcycles with no backlights working . Yet really , do you need a policeman to tell you what is obviously dangerous for all around you .
  6. I agree with your main point about the standard of driving in Thailand . I would like to add that there are thousands of motorcycles without lights driving at night . I just do not understand them . One more thing , riding there motorcycles staring at there phone is also mindbending .
  7. Yes mister is English but used in the wrong way to address someone. Thank you for explaining the situation with the OP.
  8. In my nine years in Thailand I have always been amused by being termed mister when shopping mostly . I have tried to think why they use the term mister but i come up with nothing . I have tried to explain that we use the word Sir when talking with a customer. Now and then I have been addressed as Sir when in a shop .
  9. Not many tax residents in Thailand. Ask all the street traders if they are tax residents . Quite sure of the response .
  10. I am pleased for you that you have found capable Thai workers . I have after 10 years found not one capable worker. I found a floor tiler that was competent a few months ago but his problem was he would not turn up for days and then work one more day and again he would go missing .
  11. A tiler I unfortunately hired had two articles in his tool kit . A angle grinder with a worn out wheel and a makeshift chisel . I provided all tools for the man but the biggest problem was that there was no planning on the layout of the tiles leaving silly small cuts on one side even after I had told him that I did not want that . A big mistake to hire him and I decided to continue the work by myself.
  12. Your eyes are rolling as you are ignorant of why tax is needed . By the way you said all tax is theft and not high taxes . Good night and sleep well with the comfort of a tax system that helps all while . Regards Itsari
  13. Best to use two 45 degree bends instead of a 90 degree bend to have less chance of a blockage .
  14. Thailand banks can not afford to allow interest rates to rise as they have a serious debt problem that would become even more serious if interest rates increased from 1.5 percent to 5 percent on deposits.
  15. Good thinking , a mandatory dose of epsom salts at check in .
  16. Thank uou for the offer but i decline
  17. The German auto industry depends on the export of used cars around the world .
  18. Beware of the awful smell produced by weed addicts in public places .
  19. There heart beat was close to stopping through negligence .
  20. Has annexed land . If they sell land then there is an opening to buy also.
  21. In my opinion the Thai banks would have a big problem with there loans being paid if interest rates increased substantially .
