  1. I have always found Lazada good to deal with. Polite and efficient, and quick to correct any mistakes.
  2. ...in order to protect the Thai Tobacco Monopoly.
  3. Never forget that one of the main tenets of Islam, hidden away in the Koran, is that it is the duty of Muslims to kill non-believers.
  4. I love dogs. I have six at our place near to Rayong, along with six cats and various other animals. When I am there I walk the dogs through nearby rubber plantations at 5 o'clock in the morning. At the house they make a lot of noise whenever strangers appear at the main gates, and usually have a howling session around midnight. Doesn't bother me at all. I am very disturbed by the animal hatred frequently expressed in posts here. Animals are far and away nicer than humans.
  5. I like Bangkok, and 40 years ago I married a girl born and bred in Bangkok. She likes Bangkok, it is, after all, her home town. We do, however, have a country place in Rayong where we spend about 50% of our time. We always stay in Bangkok during festive seasons. At those times Bangkok is a delight. Easy to get around with hardly any traffic.
  6. Poor girl. RIP little one. Sadness beyond belief.
  7. Probably talked too much while inebriated. Easy catch for the RTP. Anyway, overstaying is illegal so he should face the consequences.
  8. If you don't have the requisite 800k for a retirement visa, and extensions, why are you changing from marriage to retirement ?
  9. Yaaaaawn.....
  10. Only going to get worse for the poor with AI/automation.
  11. This is why many potential visitors to Thailand choose to go elsewhere.
  12. Very well done by those people who rescued this little animal. Bless you.
  13. Arriving in 'Buddhist' Thailand for the first time in 1961 I was shocked and disappointed to see the cruel way many Thais treated animals, and the widespread killing and eating of, inter-alia, pigs and chickens. Not all Thais, but the vast majority. Very well done to those good people who have rescued these big cats. Bless you.
  14. 'Peers in in other countries who are always courtious and welcoming'...really ?
  15. This is how the ruling elite control Thailand. They allow private debt to accumulate in all sectors of the public, bail the debtors out and, on the back of all the gratitude they receive, allow the process to start all over again. Keeps everybody in place, dependent and grateful.
  16. I approve the closing of hazardous u turns which are the cause of so many accudents.
  17. A long jail sentence and a substantial fine payable to the deceased's family is the very least this scumbag should face. RIP to the young man who was killed. I hope you had some enjoyment in your all too short life.
  18. Well said. Never used an agent once in over 60 years of visiting, working, and retiring in Thailand.
  19. Nothing. I don't celebrate Christmas.
  20. Can't stand the guy, but it's his money and his choice as to what to do with it.
  21. Paul Ryan is a lying, two-faced, treacherous scumbag.
  22. Pass the vomit bucket.
  23. I usually pay Lazada COD.
