  1. If the Finnish guy had walked away (Not come back)

    There would be no problem with Thais and Brits showing him the door...

    Seems Brits are just like Thais.. need to have it from numbers. (sorry the standard remark the expats make when its one on many so I do the same) Just to show its not only Thais but also Brits that are cowards.

  2. I used Cyber Ghost with True - no problems, no speed change...

    (Wait for a special offer for a trial -

    version, then wait for "their last offer" for full version.
    Full vesion alowes switching countries to get smoothest loading)

    Note it did not work in China...

  3. The truth is IT can be a great entertainment street for all, including families - real traditional, and "modern" entertainment

    Mosy people I viewed walking down the street were actually just looking - they didn't want to get involved with the street girls/boys

    (Obviously later in the night its more party people.)

    There can be shows for everyone - making it respectable, and busier

    Perhaps with a certificate above every door eg U, PG and yes X

    with no real hard X until after 12.......

    The same venue (and girls/boys) can have 2 types of shows -

    one before 12 and one for afters....

  4. ...so you don't want the truth and you don't want to be told your wrong, ha ha...

    As others have said, Thailand is in the middle of many other destinations, has relatively easy and cheap transportation to all parts of the country.

    It is perceived, as an easy going, high tolerance and safe place to "do your thing" 24/7 (oops)

    Given all this, the Philippines is increasing tourism numbers year on year (American/Western culture/rules...)

    and Thailand has been decreasing visitors for many years (even given "official" Thailand culture/rules)

  5. After receiving good feedback we plan to involve more 7-Eleven stores across Phuket as points of contact where foreigners can report crimes, said Gen Patchara.

    I find this statement most ironic. Lots of crimes have taken place recently inside the 7-Elevens.

    ... but then the Perps run off?

  6. You have to see it in the context of the ancient Egyptians (Or even modern Egypt?)

    These "Top" people are the chosen ones - only they will be reborn as "Kings"

    No mere mortal should complain about unjust systems - corruption is the leader for all Thais

    If you are poor and you can gain from small time. (short term) corruption-

    Then and only Then will you get on the

    narcissistic path to the right to enter the realm of the undead...

  7. Not an Amnesty but at least a clean slate...?

    The more that is revealed about Thailand's past and present, the more the country suffers,

    especially those poor people who believe in their Leaders for guidence and experience...

    It is a deep shame that every country worldwide, has some politicians
    that are more currupt than the theives and swindlers that roam the streets

    (or are imprisoned!)

  8. Get a degree - any. Take one online if you haven't got one...

    DO a 120 TEFL from "Accredited" learning centre (Better in Aus)

    If you haven't done any training or teaching this is worth the effort/expense.

    (A CELTA is designed more for teaching 16 to Adults, but Is similar)

    Go to Thailand (Bangkok has more openings) Get in a Taxi and visit schools drop your CV Picture and Thai telephone number.

    You should get a job in a week or so... depends on the time of year.

    They just need real English speakers - who can pronounce words and make a sentence with "no" Grammar mistakes...

    Before Songkran holidays start in April (So be there in March.)

    If you don't get a degree (An Aus friend of mine got one in Horticulture...)

    then you will be working illegally and the school will cheat you (more than usual)

    I'm Generalising

    You Philosophy is right -

    so give it a year, get the experience (And finish your degree?)

    Then ASIA is your oyster...

    (China Japan and Korea pay up to 5 times more for 20 hours)
