  1. The TGF at the time seemed to have an older business friend/associate not exactly like this woman but with similar traits example below.

    I go to Silom one night to meet the GF and her "friend", they are already eating a nice seafood dinner. I am offered some, I take about 1 prawn and nibble of something else.

    Drumroll..... when the bill comes what do you think happens? Well for a start I do not offer anything given above circumstance (Its not my gig is it?), she did pay but with the caveat:

    "Well, let me see if I have any money" - What kind of person goes to a restaurant and does not even know if they have enough money to pay for their food? I am 100% sure non of you who have lived there for a while find this in any way surprising. Thais seem to carry on just fine when there is no foreigner around but when there is, they seem to have memory lapses, lose things, including money, or shortage thereof. Funny bunch aren't they? I would feel ashamed to have to wait for someone else to pay (Unless its the bloody company paying for lunch like last week) as I earn and pay all my own bills and bloody happy to!

  2. No surprise I am confused why some persist in doing business here. RENT and keep your lovely money and property in your home country where you can most likely structure it as tax free rent and no hassles. I would never invest in bricks and mortar in Thailand, I cant own the land and they have no construction standards and its only a matter of time before some Somchai is knocking on your door asking for money. Who can be bothered with that lads, enjoy a few beers and the gals and live peace of mind with your money safe at home.

  3. They should invent a new law as a derivative of the LM law. Bad words about electricity supply? well sorry that is breach of LME, bad words about no gas supply like in normal countries well that my friend is LMG - Both carry minimum jail terms of et et etc. That's the way to run a country where people live in fear, anything that does not sound nice brush it under the carpet and forget about it, lay some flowers, sure a few people die as a result but that does not seem to have any value at all like those poor school girls who died recently with "No one is responsible" society - Life under Buddhism, living like a dog.
