Xi Jinping To Give A Keynote Speech At Apec CEO Summit
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
There was a time in Thailand when communist China was regarded with the utmost suspicion. Now it:s a non-stop kow-tow. Very sad. -
Naked British man caught wandering around beach on Samui Island
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
Nudism on many Thai beaches was quite normal many years ago. Prudism has taken over these days. -
Me too. Never had any such problems. Have you activated the app correctly ? BTW, I come from the UK where nothing seems to work any more.

Five tonnes of smuggled pork seized near Cambodian border
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Eastern Thailand
Killing and eating animals is disgusting. -
After the financial crash of 1997/8 I was deserted by Thai partners to carry the can for the aftermath/liabilities of a collapsed project. I was threatened by numerous creditors. Cutting a long story very short I negotiated 24/7 protection for several years with my local police chief in Bangkok. They did a good job, but at a high price. You may wish to give this route a try, but you will need the assistance of a reliable Thai speaker unless you yourself are fluent in Thai.

Man dies after being stabbed in front of a shopping mall in Phuket Town
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
According to the report above the suspect sped away with a gold necklace. Sounds like a motive to me. What more do you want ? -

Using a new agent for renewing retirement visa
Thingamabob replied to DomD's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Surely better that she does this personally rather than through an agent. It will cost her a lot less, and will put her, rather than a third party, in control of the process. -
Recommendations - Visa Agent Bangkok
Thingamabob replied to chopowski's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Aged 81, never used an agent in over 40 years, although no doubt the time will come when I need to. A long time ago Immigration would come to the homes of the elderly or infirm for extensions etc, but not any more. -
Man stabs his ex-girlfriend to death in Chonburi
Thingamabob replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Not uniquely Thai, obviously, however it sad and unusual that so many men here kill their girlfriends, mothers, grandmothers and other women on such a regular basis.
