Mystery Foreign Leg Appears in Pattaya Game Cafe Ceiling
Stargeezr replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
I imagine that this Brit chap will have to pay the hotel some additional expenses as well. I feel sorry for the cleaning staff that will have to put up with his stink. -
Phuket Taxi Mafia Confronts Tourists Over App-Based Ride
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
My Thai family and I went to Phuket with a mini van and driver, the tour was great and we stayed at a nice guest house. My advice though is, do not take a speed boat tour to Phi Phi, the big boats are much better if you want some scenery, and not get bounced around. I did notice how much more Phuket has been developed, and there is a lot more vehicles on the roads. -
Hot ink, cool runs: Pattaya set for tattoo parades, bikini escapades
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
I always think of tatoos in the same way I view brands on a cow or calf. Most are not pretty, and when they get old, they all look faded ande ugly. Just my opinion of course. -
Expats and Retirees Excluded in Thailand's Citizenship Grants
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The illegal workers that Thailand needs should be able to get this favor from the Thai government. Thailand needs them for the labor jobs that richer Thais will not do. Rich expats that can afford to stay in Thailand just have to spend a certain amount of money and be in Thailand a certain amount of time and can get a citizenship, drivers license and the like. Those that cannot afford it can head back to their home countries. That was my choice. -
British Man Found Shirtless and Agitated on Pattaya Roadside
Stargeezr replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
Now here is a non muscular guy. I like the strange humor of the Brits, as well enjoy drinking with the Aussies and Kiwis. Too many drugs and not enough beer, makes some people behave strangely like this chap. I wonder if he will find his shoes? -
Russian man faces Phuket charges for mafia-like intimidation

Deport and ban for life. Problem solved for this likely Russian Mafia man. -
Thailand’s Medical Insurance Rules Confuse Tourists
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I wonder just how many WOKE tourists think that Thailand will cover them if they need medical insurance for injuring themselves. I guess there are idiots all over the world. i do not like the extra expense of medical insurance, but hospitals in Thailand are pretty expensive, if you have to stay in them for any length of time. Get your insurance! Have a good worry free holiday vacation. -
Swedish Men Arrested in Pattaya on Fraud and Overstay Charges
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
After these two men get fined and spend time in prison, they should be deported and banned for life from Thailand. -
Facial Recognition to Replace Boarding Passes at Six Thai Airports
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I wonder who came up with this flawed idea. boarding passes have information on them that benefit both the passanger and the Flight attendants. Face redognition could help catch the worlds criminals, but that does not help anyone with, seating on an aircraft. Just another bad idea. -
Russia’s Support for Houthi Attacks on Global Shipping Unveiled
Stargeezr replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Putin and his supporters are evil people. I guess some posters here do not think that Ukraine is its own country that Putin and Russian military invaded and is still at war with. The Houthis are just another terrorist group. It seems that Yemen is another failed country that cannot keep this terrorist group out, just like Lebenon, or Gaza. I always wonder how much longer before a nuke bomb gets released. -
UN Warns World on Verge of Missing Critical Climate Goals
Stargeezr replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Well until an EV vehicle can go 1500 miles or 2400 Kilometers on a single charge in hot or freezing colde weather, I will not buy one. Canada is a big country. The UN has not given me one dollar to pay toward the carbon taxes I have to pay here in Canada either. -
Parking altercation at Nonthaburi market, two women stabbed
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Well this would not have happened in the good ol USA, guns would have been drawn and then Della and the Dealer and a cat named jake and a dog named Kalamazoo would have headed into the sun set. In Thailand though, it is that nasty loss of face that seems to cause a lot of these fights. -
Thailand’s Winter Expected to Start 29 October, Colder Than Last Year
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I am just happy that in most of Thailand it is considerred cold if the temperature is lower than 20C To be fair, I ould rather spend Winter months in Thailand and not in Siberia, I am sure that most expats would agree. -
Analysts Predict Baht Decline if Trump Wins US Presidency
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
i am not a fan of lying Donald, and the way he puts down military people as well as anyone that he thinks is not on his side. The world regards all Americans as the same people no matter what political party they believe in, Donald Trump does not believe that fact. I am just glad that I am not an American. -
Thailand raises retirement age to 65 for all sectors
Stargeezr replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Well I guess I should be happy that I am in my 70s. 555 My Canadian pension is so much better, with OAS, Old Age Security check to help me as well. i do feel sorry for the senior population in Thailand. Unless the person was a rich business owner or politician, the Government pension is not at all enough. Life is hard enough, but gets harder when you get old and need more medical help. -
Illegal catch! Phuket cops net 12 foreigners in immigration swoop
Stargeezr replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Yes, those asian foreignors from other poor Asian countries, must be a severe problem for Thailand. Most of them are likely working dangerous construction jobs, etc that most Thais do not want in the first place. At least these foreign workers were working and not sitting around getting money, housing and food from the Thai government.
