    Doubt it. that would have been left up to the Japanese, at the time known as the Germans of the East. The Thais would not have fitted into the Japanese Imperialist ideal. Strange really, even in Russia today there are Neo Nazis yet the Germans considered them as sub-human.

    Explain us which kind of people can trust about someone tell about himself he is Buddhist and in the same time, kill or apologize killers ?

    You miss totally to read Siddarta Gautama mind thinking and Ananda writings. You definitely don't know nothing about history, religions, philosophies, or whatever cultural things.

    Your cultural instruction origin seems to be "ThaiVisa.com" or other sailor bins around.

     

    So please, explain what you know about Buddhism and why someone who talk about kill pretend to be a mong ? Show us which kind of dumbo would trust that story time...

     

    Don't you feel yourself also like to be abused ?

    Please, become free... learn something, care about yourself.

    Thank you for your input.  You seem angry. When you have calmed down.....Consider  the Burmese Buddhists and their decades of murder of Christians and muslims.  All orchestrated by the Burmese Sangha. Open a newspaper...watch the news....or are you above such materialism?

    I think you hit the nail on the head there. It’s mainly the ones who burnt their boats back and and just can’t afford to leave that get the most ‘animated’ about these topics.

     

    We do both, Thailand in the winter, US in the summer.

     

    On the topic of health care. That in my mind is the real wild card of living full time in Thailand. 

    The Govt hospitals are hugely variable, a lot especially outside of major cities are staffed by by little more than quacks.

    Private insurance gets somewhat crazy over 60 and they start excluding all sorts of stuff. A couple of months travel insurance tends to give you much better affordable coverage 

    Me too. Summer in UK. Visit Europe. Have my own place in UK. Early Autum return to Pats having rented out my UK flat. I use Pats as a base for exploring Thailand.

    Been there done that only wish you good luck you will need it. She will meet all kinds of coffee guzzling females who are experts on her "legal" rights. It goes downhill one day at a time. She has a lot of rights there married or not. Just telling you to save you from the heartache I endured. Remember the old expression " Never take the girl out of .........."

    My thoughts entirely: She will be weaponised against you. American Feminists and Thai Gold diggers will her offer her advice to take everything you own.

    Do you have links to those articles? I recall the local celebrity, but wasn't she also drunk (or high) and fighting with the cop trying to arrest her or something. I haven't seen that one with a Russian couple. 

    I've seen the case with that Swiss guy who was arrested, but this was on the grounds of having brought the device with him from Switzerland so he was charged with illegal importation, not possession. 

     

    Personally I've been hand searched in Bangkok by the police (drug/alcohol checkpoints at night) twice in the last few months and both times took my vape mod out of my pocket. First time they didn't even say anything, second time he started complaining a little, but I told him I know the law and they're not illegal to possess. He laughed and let me go without issues. He actually told me "They are not legal to carry with you, but you are allowed to use it at home" which doesn't make any sense (guess he just wanted to "be right" and have the last word). 

     

    I hope the government comes to their senses soon, but I'm afraid the influence of the tobacco monopoly is strong on these decisions. I havent touched cigarettes for 3 years now thanks to vaping. 

    Why do you think you were searched? Where where you? At what tims?

    although he doesnt have insurance which it a bit if a silly thing to do,even if you have insurance you've still got to have that money to hand as the insurance company wont pay out till ya back in ya home country &with all the relevant paperwork. so to a degree its irrelevant if you have insurance or not. 

     

    Not true

    I wonder how married farang who regularly / ever pay around would react to find out their wife (in Thailand or anywhere), goes regularly to pubs and clubs where handsome hot young Thai men are readily available for money*?

     

    *And there are plenty of these venues in Bkk, Pattaya, Phuket and most regional centres.

     

     

    Yes gigilo bars and toy boy bars. Also the go go boys can be BFd and offer ST services to girls. In boyzone we saw Thai, Japanese and American girls barfining lads after a full nude display.

    I also found a friendly moto taxi who took me all over Hanoi at decent rates.

    I preferred rick shaws. In Hanoi I did a brilliant food on foot on foot tour for 25 dollars visiting about 10 restaurants. Excellent.

    Vietnam is cleaner, people are friendly, food and accommodations are cheaper. There are just as many beautiful places to see. You can get a visa on the internet or if you are in bkk you can go to the embassy here and get a visa. 2 things that keep me in Thailand instead of Vietnam are the healthcare is much better here and I already know the language here well enough to communicate.

    Girls are less easy to meet, especially in Hanoi. I dont mean dating. I mean proffesionals.
