I last went to Myanmar in 2011,across the border to tachilek I had visions of one day moving there to retire , people seemed nice etc Then I know the lady became PM but was ousted out. I did like her ,but she was in trouble because she apparently treated the Rohinghya Muslim bad A Aussie professor was recently in prison there and was released, I heard him on ABC Radio being interviewed yesterday saying he believes there would be a new government shortly and how they treated him badly after he was arrested for working for the lady PM which he gone to be her advisor I just read a few minutes ago the military in the North surrendered So in basic terms what's going on there ? And....any expats live there ???? I know Simon on here used to live there What's it like in Yangon for expats ?

I get that in Australia too , Indian students luv speaking on their phone loud after their uber eats shifts at 2am ,not just in Thailand But I prefer that than drunken bogans screaming out

I was going to buy in this block called Arcadia waters???? Can't remember the name but in Soi 7 on the way to Jomtien I think Arcadia waters or similar....but anyway rented awhile and found Russian families in high season screaming shouting..no thanks

I was coming back from Pattaya recently to Jomtien in a baht bus I always seem to attract the weirdo element who want to talk to me Opposite sat next to me a elderly Australian guy , he struck up a conversation, ," my condo is noisy he said ,I live in the view talay ,in a corner unit I couldn't get a word in as he raved on , "it's worse here in Jomtien than Guildford in Sydney where I live 6 months of the year he said angrily. "I would rather hear loud car mufflers in Guildford!! "Absolutely crazy "! He shouted as he hopped off the bus on the main road near Jomtien complex As the baht bus started to drive away I saw him walking up a big driveway shouting to himself I'm just wondering what's your condo building like for noise ? Slamming doors? People congregating in the foyer ? Motorcycle outside? Loud television? Weed smokers ?

Don't want to go off topic in my own thread but can I ask why you chose to buy a 3 bedroom house ?

A indian guy at my work was trying to sell me a ticket to see a "guru" called Sadguru I think his name was. the tickets are very expensive and apparently this guy is famous around the world and he tells you how to run your life. Talking about this stuff ..new age...or whatever they call it nowadays do you believe in tarot card readers and people who can speak to the dead? I used to love Doris Stokes , she was able to talk to dead people When I was in Philippines I went to see a palm reader in Manila she told me virtually nothing only my dad apparently was getting drunk up in heaven and was cheering for me ! Being Filipino she was actually using American English and said the old man was "rooting for me "! I said to her the dirty old bugger "Don't tell me he is rooting up there too " Which went over the palm readers head ,"he'd be 105 now and he's still at it "! I said to her I had these visions of my now 105yo father with shirt off tattoed body holding up a beer bottle and cheering me on ! Good on ya son ya old C he would be saying apparently according to her

You love Bali 😉

I just heard a work colleague saying how great Bali is ! They could retire there they said I asked them to compare it to Pattaya or Phuket but they have never been ! So guys who have been ....is Bali a good retirement option ? I want to go but ....I have this image of tattooed Aussie bogans/chavs holding beer bottles

😂😂 You walk around with a angry look ?

I find BOY GEORGE offensive too !!!😂

Maybe they know I'm a weirdo and they are attracted by it !!🤣🤣👌i wonder though and please tell me this guys honest Is it weird to go up to someone you don't know to start a conversation? What if someone does ? Now I'm thinking today when that young guy sat near me he was up to something? But.....he may have just been lonely ? So should we be rude?

I just seem to attract weirdos Even back in September walking around the Nirun condo's in Pattaya I had a weirdo approach me singing at me " Bunny wabbit ,Bunny wabbit,whilst holding his beer and topless I walked off only for him to follow me ' I'm sorry mate ,I'm sorry he says whilst crying holding his beer bottle I'm thinking why me,why do they go for me ? Apparently it's my AURA !!!

So the last few weeks living in a major city in Australia I have been going to the park to sit on a bench in the sun. Never a week has gone by that someone has approached me to sit next to me and tell me their life problems,I seem to attract this! Going to the park this morning I decided to sit in a different spot on the grass on my blanket only to have a Pakistani student sit right near me he then started to make conversation on how he had been mugged in Sydney the night before,,they stole my shoes he said . I sympathized , did you go to the police I said Yes he said " they handcuff me" he said , Then I'm thinking another weirdo ! The week before that was a old guy who came over to comment on my yellow t shirt ? Your t shirt had Hawaiian on it he said , I had to look myself I had no idea , he started to make conversation and sat next to me I felt sorry for awhile until he opens a beer bottle and then I'm out of there before he gets drunk Are they lonely ? Strangely I never get this happening in Pattaya ! I sit everywhere by myself and never get that I come to Sydney sit in a park 4 times and get 4 different people wanting to make conversation with me sitting near me ! Here I was relaxing in the sun today in the park reading ASEAN ,only to get this young Pakistani student, who knows he might if wanted money but I soon packed up said goodbye and left him This afternoon I asked a friend about why I attract people to me , a friend who reads tarot and into mystical,he said it's my "aura" , he said Some people he said attract cars , ....cars ??? Yes he said ,every time they go to walk across the road a group of cars suddenly appeared making them wait So what does your Aura attract

Even the " Addicts" forum were rubbing their hands together with glee ,😅

It was actually in Mount Druitt Sydney.

In a perfect world, in a perfect world, doesn't happen in reality. I remember about 2016 I held a door open for a Thai lady with her farang boyfriend,a young muscle guy covered in tatts, this was in South Pattaya , he then started shouting at me " I can do that ! That's my lady ! After they experience I thought F ...it ,why bother

I must add a farang called "Trevor" who runs a Pattaya YouTuber channel that promotes Pattaya I think 100k subscribed I won't say his YouTube channel but I love watching him , I'm not gay but I think he is one of the best looking guys I have seen , and if I was ever gay I would pick him first I would say a lot of these Pattaya YouTubers do great things in promoting Pattaya but many look older than they are I was surprised to see one namef Geoff C was only 61 but he does very well and is successful in promoting Pattaya

Very successful man and hardworking

I thought he was on the Gold coast in Australia? I know he has a house there worth around 5 million

As bodybuilder Kali used to say ....."Don't be jealous!!

This is the way society has become,the white middle aged man is the target !

I think he means the addicts forum who I couldn't bother to read

Just talking to a work colleague in his 60's says he was standing at a bus stop (Australia) on Friday night only to have two drunk girls slap him across the face for no reason "I never hit a woman mate " he said Two drunk young girls he said ,slapping guys on the bus I told him I would of hit them back! to his shocked look "You should not hit women mate" he said I despise of this attitude some men have that women are weaker ,granted ,it's usually the old guys ,but listen please !!!! Times have changed !!!! I'm sick of all this Bull<deleted> I don't even hold doors open for women unless they are elderly You silly old fools who keep this attitude that women are weak really pee me off !!!!! A few years ago in m.walkkng through a street one night in Melbourne Australia to see a young Irish accent couple ,the boyfriend pushing her to the ground ,she looks at me to do something,yeah right ,I walked around them and kept walking !! I treat these women especially these rough ones tatts all over them , part of gangs mugging elderly people have no hesitation in hitting them back , I once saw 4 teenage girls push over a elderly man for his phone ,and all laughed about it ,no one would get involved as they were girls I don't treat women now any different,carry your own luggage !!!!! YOU should of helped her mate!!!! ,she's a woman !!!! One old man said to me after not helping a lady up the stairs with luggage !!! He was walking beside her too Yeah right I said ,how about you help her I said to him "I'm 65 he snapped back ! I'm 62 I said back , you silly old C

Personallly and to be honest I no longer discriminate against anyone , I take people as they are Why should I "follow" others in hating ,no one will do anything for me ,

Phuket yes
