    Is it rapid to get through immigration if paid in advance? 

     

    Well, it's certainly a lot quicker as you are not in a queue waiting to obtain your visa.

     

    The arrival and departure card etc. can now be done online in advance, and you can install an app to your phone to show immigration that you have complied with everything, which they will scan.

     

    So, yes, a lot quicker.

    I am becoming increasingly convinced that transgender and female prostitutes alike think that they can get away with targeting Indian, middle-Eastern and other non-white tourists for mistreatment (drugging, rip-offs, price gouging, non-performance, thefts, pickpocketing, verbal abuse, and physical assaults, etc.).

     

    I'm not saying there are never any cultural differences which might explain underlying tensions, but I strongly suspect that racial and ethnic prejudices towards these groups voiced by Caucasian bar owners and Caucasian sex tourists that these racial minority groups are less desirable and oftentimes made to feel unwelcome have filtered down to the local population. and may go a long way towards explaining this recurring pattern.

     

    Right got it.

     

    It's not the ladyboys fault.

     

    The Western bar owners and western tourists put her up to it, implying she wasn't at risk from the authorities, as all these other races were looked down upon by Westerners and that belief has filtered down into Thai society!

     

    What a load of tosh you have written.

  3. Totally silly question, suitable only for mind-readers to answer, with no inclination as to what you are actually looking for.

     

    Do you want quiet, beaches, rural, cheap living, city life?

     

    Far too many options in this vast country with no inkling as to what is required by the OP.

     

    It's the same type of question such as ' How much do I need to retire in Thailand ' whilst giving no clue as to eating, drinking, lifestyle, spending habits of the person asking the question.

    AirAsia allows 0.5L bottles but only for medicine or shampoos and stuff.
    I've carried 0.25L Listerine mouthwash back from Phnom Penh to Phuket with a transfer at DMK. No questions at all.

    And there's a small lifehack for you
    after baggage control there's water fountains at DMK so if you carry an empty bottle with you, as I did, you could fill it up for free and take on board. Isn't that nice.
    It even has a digital counter of how many plastic bottles were saved.

    What and you save 7 baht?

    Sure, she qualified as a nurse, works in a large hospital in Bangkok  and works part time in a bar in Pattaya.

     

    Must try harder.

     

     

    Yeah,

     

    Let himself down has Walter Mitty, because he states he is new to all this and makes the biggest naive post of the year.

     

    Then he is savvy enough to state he ' doesn't want to mention the hospital for obvious reasons '

     

    So, therefore, he is street smart enough for the dos and don'ts of Thailand.

     

    How would he know these things?

     

    He then throws in the red herring to convince us that he is green as apples, by referring to Pattaya as an island.

     

    Try again champ, it's troll Saturday.
