No idea how many real women.

 

However, based on the posts I have read of certain threads I can be quite sure there are quite a few men who identify as women.

I'd be happy to identify as a woman if I thought some guy would buy me a house and car.

I'm aware that there is a great deal of crime in LOS, but it rarely affects farangs or tourists, and this is a forum for farangs and tourists. To be precise, I felt safer in LOS than I ever did in London.

Nobody ever tried to kill me in London ........ but a Thai tried to kill me in Chiang Mai.

MaeJo just as bad, so I added solar cells and batteries, now I always have power.

Maybe.

 

Just a thought: Could police/government in any country request your historical GPS locations in the event of court case/police investigation? Would Google share that information with authorities?

It would have been a positive bonus to me back when my former wife was falsely accusing me of stalking her. Can't see a downside of being tracked if not a criminal.

@OneMoreFarang Can you please tell us more about the "Google Timeline"?

Open Google maps on your smartphone, tap your avatar (top right), and there is your timeline showing where and when your phone was since you signed up to Google.

Every sponsored ad on Thai Facebook is fraudulent!

I thought yaba was like 1 or 200 a tab, after the 'crackdown'.   No experience myself, but that's what I've read in news.

20bht is the top price, and it's dropping. Used to be 50bht before COVID.

That's funny, and I think most people addicted to yaba, prefer the addiction level compared to cigarettes.   Number one problem with druggies, they do commit crimes to finance their habit.

 

Do try to live in the real world once in a while 

They only commit the crimes when drugs are expensive. With yaba at 20bht/tab and cannabis at 30bht/GM, nobody needs to commit crimes to purchase them.

Alcohol is far more expensive so why aren't you ranting about the evils of alcohol forcing the poor into committing crimes?

Obviously you have never been to a book shop in Thailand. They lounge around in the isles reading books for free.

Nah, they're just looking at the pictures. Most Thai books are comic books.

Another fake Facebook sponsored ad, please stop posting these adverts unless you have purchased from them and received a legit product.

Lived in London around 60 years and watched it change.  It used to be a very safe city, but it no longer is. I tend to avoid going out at night in London nowadays, nowhere in London is as safe as Bangkok.

Did you forget the Krays.

And before them the Luftwaffe?

Link?

It's a sponsored Facebook ad, so probably a scam.

Your comment is another one of your throw away lines.  It doesn't take into account anything else other than the old, very old saying that "rent is dead money." 

Talking about old people, at some age it's no longer sensible to buy a property.

If you're 70yo the purchase price will be way beyond any rent you would pay.

But a lot of older people get locked into mindsets which give them no options.

No mention of what happens after buying a 25Mbht seaside home, then you accidentally kick a doctor?

Even a drunk driving conviction can get you deported and banned from re-entering.
