Tourism ministry dual pricing proposal for hotel rates
MarcelV replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I guess we all know the answer to that already. I can wave my WP in their faces and speak Thai as much as I want, but they will reply like they always did: 'you farang, you pay price farang.' -

I just reported you to immigration for defamation. Goodbye. -
What to study to get my 5 year teaching license from Krusapa
MarcelV replied to Adam85's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
It was pretty easy, with some modules being assessed by multiple choice assignments only, but most by writing some papers, mostly in reflection form. Quite light on the scientific stuff. Still worthwhile in learning some stuff about rubrics, assessing and the development of children and adolescents. The whole course took less than 10 months. -

MarcelV replied to Adam85's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
I finished the St. Roberts course this year. Still waiting for the follow-up steps though, probably an exam at a yet unknown date and location. -
Why I Moved from the Bangkok Post Forum to ASEAN Now
MarcelV replied to renaissanc's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Bareback lover Munin and junta sycophants like Renaissance chased me away from there. AN is not much better though. At least the mods still actively intervene when someone oversteps the line. -
Has the rainy season arrived in Thailand at last?
MarcelV replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In my home province of Narathiwat, in the far south, rainy season never went away in the first place. It's been a rainy year through and through, with hardly a day without rain. -
I don't know about Pattaya, but in my neck of the woods, I was able to just walk in last Friday at the local hospital and get jabbed within 10 minutes. Barely any customers, so it was quick and easy. Most hospitals in Thailand may offer the same quick service, is my guess.

As a foreigner in Thailand, I can only repeat my mantra: Stay Away From Narcotics. Just do.

Bangkok Patana 2022/23 School Fees
MarcelV replied to blackcab's topic in Primary & Secondary Education
Great school. My Thai wife and I sent all our four children there. Good stuff. And, yes, it's expensive, but I got plenty of cash anyway and I wanna give my kids a great education. -
The way Thai schools organise stuff...
MarcelV replied to cooked's topic in Primary & Secondary Education
As a teacher I still don't know when the Fall holiday starts, or who my M.1 students are, as they keep bringin in new ones during the semester. I'm tellin y'all, teachin in Thailand ain't everything if ya can't handle uncertainties and general chaotic stuff and everything. -
5 Year Teaching Licence - No certificate or card?
MarcelV replied to blindbarney's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
I wish I had a 5-year license in the first place. I'm almost on my 4th waiver. Two more years, and it's farewell, Thailand! New teachers just don't get a license anymore. Thailand is tryin to chase all of us away. Chok dii khrap! -
Dual Pricing Reconfirmed In Thailand National Parks
MarcelV replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I'd rather pay 500 baht for a NP if the Thai pay the same as I, than pay 400 if Thai pay only 40 baht.
