Nothing you need to understand, it's not your loan, so don't pay it.
Sounds to me like she wants you to give her 25,000bht.
Just say no.

Did they all have wounds in the back of their heads?
I'm thinking dead men can't tell how many bags of drugs they were carrying.

Not married to a sex worker, but I care for my wife her daughter (my daughter) from a previous marriage with a Thai man, who abanoned her, and I do take care of her elderly Mother and Father in Issan.
Me too ....... and this is after my wife has gone (my former Mil, my former wife's daughter, our son).
My (step) daughter has essentially been abandoned by both her worthless Thai parents.
I'm not even getting sex in return for my philanthropy, I have to pay someone else for that.

Got a feeling it is only rural areas
Might be, we were half way between Hang Dong and San Patong near what used to be the CarreFour supermarket.
On a failed housing estate, 100 plots and only 3 houses.

Did your girlfriend have to register as being a low-income family in order to receive the benefit described in the pdf?
I just paid 3 electricity bills yesterday, two of them had less than 50 units of use but I still had to pay. In fact, one bill showed 0 units as having been consumed but I had to pay the tax on the monthly service fee (but not the monthly service fee).
Nope, we did nothing, the bill turned up as normal with all the usual itemised items, then at the bottom, payment due 0.00bht. I think you have to be on the right meter.

Gee buddy if you hate Thais why the interest in Thailand?
Know many that are smart and like farangs.
If they associate with foreigners like you, I'd probably avoid them.
But then I avoid almost everyone equally.

Try these guys:
They have a pretty large selection of everything bakery. They will ship to your location.
200bht/kg seems a bit expensive.
I buy from YoK in ChiangMai for 40bht/kg

Sounds unlikely.
Sudden and immediate mysterious faults are always electrical.
Mechanical faults either appear slowly, or after a loud bang and a cloud of smoke.

A rich or poor Thai will talk with you if you can speak Thai. If a guy, they usually want to share a drink. You are interesting until you aren't. That might be because of your weak bank account or lack of Thai.
I can't imagine anything more dull that drinking with a normal male Thai.
But if he's young, slim, attractive and wearing a dress, game on.

I am partial to people who are polite, attractive, athletic, intelligent, articulate, openminded, and have enough money to pay their own way and don't always have to ask how much things cost. I guess that makes me a fan of those who are abnormal.????
But you live in the middle of the jungle where there's no chance of meeting anyone like that.

His remaining teeth don't look that healthy either.
"I came here for a detox to relax"
Can't help feeling Pattaya was the wrong destination for a guy in detox.
....... I didn't go anywhere near the bars, honest ..........

Just saying about the people I've met, no generalisations in the post you quoted.
Maybe your education was a bit lacking in the English comprehension department.

we are all going to be 77 at some time going forward or so we think
I've never thought that.
At 65, I recon I probably won't make 70 .... purely using the logic that no other foreigner I've known in Thailand has, and both my parents in the UK were dead by then.

I'm saying we shouldn't refer to ourselves by our skin colour, using a foreign word, because we know better.
I don't care much about Thais, they can say what they like.

Is google wrong? Is farang a racist term?
Does it matter, do you think it's normal to slip one foreign word in your sentences?
I've just asked my black pal if he ever gets the urge to call himself 'neego' when posting on forums.
Oh, and my pal from India claims he doesn't get the urge to call himself 'kairk' when typing online.
I'm betting the Koreans don't call themselves 'gowlee' either, but I don't know any to ask.

Normal people rarely refer to themselves using a foreign racist slur.
But then again, normal people usually live and die in their country of birth.

Due to the cost of living, an Australian on a minimum wage has a worse life than a Thai on minimum wage, which is why he comes to Thailand or other poorer countries and shack up with some girl even lower than him, with nothing in common between them. Then turns to alcohol and starts berating everything. Many well educated guys who are married to educated and professionally successful girls are leading a hsppy life here.
I agree with you, apart from the 'girl even lower than him' bit, you can't get any lower than white trash.
He chose to be ignorant, a lot of the rural girls do quite well given the chance of education.
Don't think I've ever met any other educated white guys in Thailand, they were all builders, painters, postmen.
No thinking back, 1 doctor who married a bar girl, she then stole 3 'investment' houses from him.
Never seen any white guys with educated and professional girls ...... all obvious hookers, although the guys would deny it.

a car park cum rip-off shopping area is a ... village ?
~o:37;
I bought fried pork and sticky rice from a stall, hardly a rip-off at 25bht, it did me for lunch.
There's a decent Kao Soy restaurant as well.
Quite nice gardens with lots of pretty flowers for an entrance fee of 10bht.
I always thought everything was very reasonably priced.
The air quality was a lot better than in town, despite the smoggy views, and it was surprisingly cool.

There'll be an excuse why you don't get the money back, and you'll break up over it.
