  1. In general Thailand has a good road system. My pet peeve is on a national highway such as No 1 far too many traffic lights & unsafe U turns. Understand on the lesser roads not possible but on their No 1 highway ??
  2. Speed up progress,,,,,,, u gotta just luv it ??
  3. Couple of right old moralists on here that must have got out of the wrong side this morning. In saying that you should pop into one of the clinics mentioned above, get checked out & swallow the bitter pill. They will also check that no other STD (possibly more serious) has been picked up. Do it ASAP for your own good
  4. What the staunch Trumpees will not admit is that most of the 4 trillion is coming out of the average US of A's citizens pockets, again, robbing from the poor to help the rich & state coffers
  5. Any full bank branch can organize for you, about a 10 minute process. They are protecting your money
  6. Show them the trade figures & they may change their tune. They are neighbours & a healthy trade surplus with Cambodia (which Thailand desperately needs) needs to continue, so a few heads being banged together to knock some sense into them is in order on both sides. To even suggest that it is all Cambodia's fault just shows a lack of education & brainwashing
  7. We just returned from an 8 day family holiday in Perth & it was just OK. Having travelled this route & to Auckland on many occassions I gotta say that where I used to give Thai an 8/10 they now get a 5/10. Reasons, aircraft dirty & old, Food & drink service nothing compared to what it used to be. Pity as was gold for 15 years but now look for alternatives
  8. The beginning of the end,,,,,,,again
  9. That, along with cutting electricity from Burma as well must be costing Thailand more export earnings. All over a bit of dirt & a pile of stones that people are prepared to die for
  10. Thai Airways will do just fine going forward on one condition Do not allow Government Ministers & their hangers on from demanding free travel & that includes the Foreign Ofice who all staff thought they could "catch a freebie" whenever they wanted.
  11. This has happened to me twice coming out of Perth where the flight has been delayed overnight. We had to reenter Oz again as we had been waiting to board both times. We got a big blue stamp across the Oz departure stamp "Did Not Depart" Got our passports back & taken by bus to accommodation. Maybe Thai Immigration did not want the job of checking back in & out & making it quicker to get through & on their way when plane became available. It would be Immigration that had the say, not the airline,,,, methinks
  12. You are younger than you look or have not been here long. I remember getting 17.8 Bht to the AUD which continued for about 5 months. As I was being paid out of Oz in those days it hurt
  13. This sounds like a Trump statement. Sometimes there is no doubt better to just keep the trap shut
  14. You must admit Damo if you gotta go, not a bad way to go
  15. Great, quick work by the police. Legalise the trade & then can be taxed
  16. They have realized that the upper echelon can make more money by turning a blind eye
  17. This guy is just out to get his moment of fame on social media.
  18. Abide by the International Court on boundaries even if need to get surveyed by non aligned country (ies) open the border, have a tea party together & get on with living & as everybody knows Thailand does very well thankyou, not just on border trade but trade in general along with tourist traffic, which they need desperately at present. The old fuddy duddies who insist on making waves on 3 areas that happen to have old Kymer ruins on (& belong to Cambodia anyway) should be drafted to the front line & given an old Lee Enfield to protect the ruins.
  19. For those that have visited Genting (outside of KL & (or) Singapore's Casinos they are just bloody awful. Don't do it !!!!
  20. For a developing country to even consider chasing F1 is simply silly. Even Korea could not make a go of it & those in the know in Malaysia wish they had never heard of F1. These two are the only 2 that I have been unvolved in. For a 5 day event the returns are just not there By the time everybody is paid, the infrastructure is in place (if roadrace millions spent every year to get the thing ready & put it to bed after, it is hardly worth it. As already stated monies could be spent on much more important issues
  21. The aussies have been at the business for 26 years that I know of here in Thailand. Hope they all get their just deserts
  22. Only last week I just used my visa extension expiry date, straight thru
  23. Stop it you 2 children. It is still a very worrying sign that needs to be stamped out & quickly. Next they won"t be neighbours but as mentioned, middle Eastern & (or) European haters. The BIB need to keep on this but good job done here
