    Cebu Pacific Airlines has some good flights BKK to Manilla

    Known for flight delays, just be prepared. Not too serious maybe 30mins to an hour from my experienced.

    Domestic flights are much worse.

     

    I switches to Philippine Airlines instead for BKK <> MNL

    I tend to think the Filipinas have been around the block a few more times than the Thais and are generally smarter due to the fact that they can communicate better.

     

    I have heard a lot of these women come with a great deal of baggage as well such as violent ex husbands and kids and bad cops.( Thailand revisited)

     

    There were also some silly adultery laws I seem to recall regarding Filipino women going with foreigners and not yet officially divorced from the first Filipino husbands. There were actual stories of arrests of foreigners.

     

    Way too many visible guns for my liking and I hear the poverty in Manila is extremely disturbing. And I wouldn't fancy Jesus in every sentence out of their mouths and why do they nearly all have moles on their upper lips or cheeks?

     

    Food they say is lousy and Jeepneys for transport can be dangerous as crime takes place in broad daylight.

     

    Give me Cambodia or Vietnam anytime.

     

    However, I like my life on my Isaarn farmstead.

     

    Creature of habit I suppose after 27 years of Madam Scouse and what more could I ask, she supports Liverpool!

    Agree on the facts of adultery law, poverty & crime. Lately crime getting worse, usually target foreigner but mainly chinese.

     

    Food on the other hand, different province have difference signature but most food are the same even bakery, kinda general. Not trying to say bad about them/religion, they do tend to pray but without doing anything to make it happen, as in pray for apple to drop from the sky.

     

    Communication part, manila and surrounding province generally do speak english but further away might not. In Cebu part, English generally in city centre but going outer you'll have tough time communicating in non tourist area.

    Cryto Mining

    in SME Business in Thailand

    Posted

    Me(Thai) and 2 of my buddies(Foreigner) considering to kickstart a small project in Thailand running small scale Crypto Mining using prefab container.

    Couldn't get information as foreigner (since i studied abroad since young so reading Thai is a no).

     

    Planning to register either sole proprietary or partnership company considering that we will get couple of investor from abroad to expand.

     

    So my question, anybody running crypto mining farm as foreigner or able to register partnership? Want to get rough idea how it works before i approach business consultant.

     

    Thanks a lot

     

    Sorry for posting but tried searching crypto related via search couldnt see any but i reckon there as quite a number of crypto topic back then.

    So are they open during Covid?  I was thinking of doing this and emailed a couple of dive shops but never got any replies.

    Try calling them instead, I was in Phuket early April for short getaway.. wasn't able to dive due to rain 1-2 days prior my arrival which caused bad visibility and not recommended by Dive Shop (beach dive) unless you're willing to take a day trip 3 dives around islands which take approximately 30-45min boat trip.
