U-Tapao Airport Scales Down Expansion Amid Rail Delays
MartinBangkok replied to snoop1130's topic in Eastern Thailand News
And the Thai mafia in the area, Ban Chang - Sattahip, have almost completely taken over Bolt. Whenever I order a Bolt and I see that the car is parked at Utapao, I cancel immediately. So should you, if you don't, you will be met with a message or phone call, asking for at least 500 Baht more than the official Bolt rate. -

I live next door to Utapao. The construction work, which I can see from my balcony, has completely stopped. -
Thailand's Auto Output Drops 24.63% as Domestic Sales Falter
MartinBangkok replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You consider a car as mere transport from A to B. Driving on long trips, for me, in a loud masculine V6, or V8, diesel or petrol, makes the driving in itself more than worth the journey. Each to himself. -
Thailand Cracks Down: Police to Monitor Foreign Nationals Closely
MartinBangkok replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Again, you are completely wrong dear Scottie. Most developed nations downplay, or downright hide crime commited by their immigrants. All part of the politically correct to-not-offend policies. In Thailand it is 100% opposite.- 178 replies

Jesus Christ, and you are actually willing to put up with this derogatory treatment from Thailand? This is insane. -

Warning about TTB bank
MartinBangkok replied to CallumWK's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I can't believe the servility and submissiveness of most of the posters on AN. Don't you get it yet? Foreigners, western foreigners, are not welcome in Thailand anymore. All those of you who stubbornly oppose any critcism of Thais and Thailand, is it because you are too embedded and have no alternative? -

Another thing most people are not mentioning: The photos below are from my new home in another South East Asian Nation. The air is so clean and fresh and the sky has such a strong blue that I have never seen in Thailand: -
Thailand Ranked 106th in English Proficiency Out of 116 Countries

Thailand was de facto obeying first France, then Britain, then Japan and then the US. Google it, ChatGPT it or YouTube it. -

The most successful and most developed cities/areas in Asia: Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore. All three colonized by the British. (And yes, before anyone objects, Shanghai was British for a considerable period of time, Google it, ChatGPT it or YouTube it). I am not British. -

Ask a random Thai about the last 5 or 10 movies they've watched and ask them to share their song playlist with you. Then get back to me. Ok Scottie? -

My ex-girlfriend's career (girl from Korat I met in Pattaya) was solely thanks to her being able to speak decent English. -

Jack, nice post. I am always curios about the background of fellow expats, and after carefully studying your written statements I am daring a wild guess that you maybe from Sydney, Australia. -

You obviously know nothing about Thailand and Thais. They are completely ignorant to anything outside Thailand's borders. That includes American films and English music. -
Thailand Targets Substandard Online Goods in Major Clean-Up
MartinBangkok replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Crazy Thailand. All Thai products are of so low quality it's unbelievable. My made in Thailand outdoor solar light lasted 4 months. My Japanese one, which I bought 2 months before the Thai one, is still shining brightly, after nearly 4 years. Thailand doesn't have a single product of quality, except girls. Name me one good Thai product. You can't. There is none. -
You are already getting ripped off in Thailand. Shall I give you the list, or would you rather continue keeping it under the carpet? And the other aspect of mistreatment of white skinned foreigners: Are you married to a Thai? How do feel about immigration officers in military uniforms coming to take photos of you and your wife lying in your bed? Do you think they are having a laugh?
