TAT forecasts surge of Chinese tourists into Thailand via land in 2024
natway09 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The more driving in cars & motorbikes will push the Chinese injured, maimed or killed up & bad publicity will kill (excuse the pun) this way of travelling around Thailand. Now, back to the airport........ -

Doubts over Thai target of 8.2 million Chinese visitors in 2024
natway09 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They had a great opportunity during Covid to clean the place up, put tourist infrastructure in place, reeducate the taxis & get the taxi mafia & other rip off merchants sorted. The quality of spoken english could also have been improved during this time for the tourist areas along with the police needing to somehow make the roads safer on the vastly improved roads. They blew it. The tourist industry will roll along but the opportunity to have really top quality tourism in lesser numbers but really high spending has gone as although there are many really good quality hotels the amenities outside of their establishments just does not stack up -

Aggressive Taxi Drivers that hang around outside hotels.
natway09 replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yes, agree with the original poster, they can be dangerous, Witnessed a taxi who thought he had the "street covered" & after a lady refused to pay the extortionate price requested hailed a passing cab. Within seconds he had a long sword out & was about to attack her. The hotel security guard intervened...... I went to park my pickup on Sukhumvit Soi 11 in a normal parking spot & was told on no uncertain terms "NO, Taxi only. So moved 50 yards down & parked with this guy running after me No, No. I just walked past him & got bumped & a "cutthroat sign" When I returned 20 minutes later I had 2 front cut tyres & the brand new spare had been unwound & stolen. They are a mafia & dangerous. Some of you must lead a very sheltered life here -
Been in the business for many years. Your question is impossible to begin answering without a lot more information as is a very complex business, not only decibels but frequencies need to be considered along with flanking. You will not "soundfroof" a house or room without considerable cost but can reduce significantly

Breathalyzer tests proposed for Thai nightlife venues
natway09 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The checking of patrons has & is done by many bars. Having owned & operated bars in Bangkok for 25 years we have taken more keys to motorbikes & cars off people than I can number. Our bar in lower Sukhumvit was open till 4am on a regular basis. And "Smokey & the Bandit" refused drinks to many. -

My Legal Wife Has A Thai ID problem.
natway09 replied to NONG CHOK's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
The whole story is a lot of codswallap. Taken my wife to NZ, OZ & other countries maybe 18 times & she could have left her ID card at home. It means nothing outside of Thailand -

Impossible. It is an ingrained pyramid which just has to be fed at all levels just like taking a chocolate & passing the box on. -

With a credit card you have pretty good protection. With a debit card very little (ask any Thai bank employee) -
