Have you compared your property tax bills?  Back home in Texas, my property tax bill alone was more than 90% of Thai people make.  And for that, we got beach cleaners that came by every morning, trash bins every 50-100 meters along the beach, curbside trash pickup once a week, and some level of confidence that the trash contractors didn't just dump it on a quiet road.  Texas has its share of pigs (just like Thailand).  But we pay a buttload of money to pick up after them.  Money that Thai people can't afford.

 

yep, much the same

Yes I have a fairly healthy self esteem.

😆 Good on you. I would employ a thumbs up emoji but none are available.

My wife enjoys my 'manscaping'. She says long public hair detracts from her enjoyment of deepthroating me.

Your child needs a better education if you're grateful that she's learning English from an ESL student. 

I do a very good job of it. However, it is part of the school curriculum and I am happy that part is undertaken by a very capable Philipina

Sad, who will be English teachers?

Russians. Before you chortle in disbelief, it is a fact. One of the English language teachers at our daughters school is Russian FFS. Thankfully there is also Philipino English language teachers.

Once again, you're wrong. New Zealanders get a 30 day visa waiver.

Nit picking

This is the visa fees schedule at the website of the Thai Embassy in Wellington. Pages 1 and 2 are in Thai. Pages 3 and 4 in English. Compare them with the prices any other nationality pays for a visa.

Never been asked to pay a fee.

Time for Christopher Luxon to raise the issue of visa prices for New Zealanders who go to Thailand. New Zealanders pay 5 - 7 times the price of anyone else.

Show us the proof please.

I have always entered visa free at no cost. Last visit January, no charge. Maybe other nationals are getting paid to enter Thailand 🙄

Yeah,  good luck with that one.  Have they actually seen how much single use plastic this country uses? 

 

It would be mind boggling.  Just in my small town the amount is phenomenal. Local morning market, plastic bags everywhere. 

 

The NZ government banned single use plastic bags a few years ago.  It's good to see paper bags back in the Supermarkets.  But NZ is very small  population wise. 

 

I can't see this happening here... too many mindsets to change and probably no enforcement of the rules. 

We moved back to NZ from Khon Kaen last year. Wife and daughter are amazed at the lack of rubbish. Even the seperation of soft plastics from general rubbish and a recycling bin, bottle bin and seperate food scraps bin. It is a good education for both of them.

Of course, in rural Thailand someone will pay for your recyclables.

Anybody used it yet? I booked a flight to Swampy next week and the plane will be 787-8. So, my question is has anybody used it yet, and what is it like? I will fly cattle class since I picked up a cheap flight.

Same same no difference to any other cattle class mate. The 8 getting a bit tired now on some carriers.

777 last row is only 2 seats which is good for solo if you don't mind proximity to the toilets.

What airline you booked on?

Men can go to Mars. Bargirls go to Venus 

555..  60% of the ones they know about. Cash is king in the provincial markets.

Give a person 100 baht. It remains 100 baht. 

must be russian tanks if they're piles of rubble

I see the name has been pixelated out today 

and they were going to be the Hub of Renewable Energy 😐

55555555555  not another HUB.

There was a thread on here yesterday from Dan Cheeseman saying that 50% of farangs date prostitutes.

It's true. I do often and I'm only 1/2 a man 😊
