  1. Not for me. 50/50 UK and Thailand. I have a house in the UK, never talk to neighbours, go to the pub twice a week (cannot afford £6/pint every day). Benefits: beautiful countryside and clean air. In Thailand, I have an apartment with pool, I pay one years rent. Every day I sit with my bar girl neighbours, chatting and them feeding me up, yes, feeding. Downstairs is a bar with old ex pats, a few ex bar owners who've lived in Pattaya over 30 years. Sometimes go to Ban Amphur beach where I rig a hammock and enjoy the weather, often go to Soi Buakhao for a Chang Yai.. Best of both worlds.
  2. The limit has been removed. But. That doesn't mean its unlimited, it means the immigration now officers have even more powers.
  3. In another life (30 yeas ago), I lived in China and experienced this there. It was explained that we eat dairy products, primarily milk and smell.
  4. Not good news for agencies or will foreigners be excluded? Will the driving license card be abolished?
  5. Overall, the incident highlights the effectiveness of modern security measures and the importance of vigilance around suspicious items in airports. But they got it wrong...It was a False Alarm
  6. Thai statistics on fatal accidents only count deaths on the road. Subsequent fatalities in hospital are not included. Drink driving, crash helmets, jumping red lights are not policed. Poilce only use check points which everyone avoids.
  7. I suspect you have a VPN active? Deactivate and retry
  8. Have not seen this on Asean Now. Maybe because a Farang was the victim. Had it been the other way round, it would have been all over the news.
  9. How many Brits in Thailand? How many Thais have been aggressive in restaurants? Asia now, Farang hating forum, has to amplify every single incident.
  10. Not condoning their actions in any way but, there are thousands of Thai shoplifters. This is Thailand media, assisted by AN, denigrating Falangs.
  11. Last Year, Maneerat did TM30 and Residence cert for Driving License 2,000 baht. Satisfied and would recommend. Oh I just have 555.
  12. Don't know where you heard that. This is their mission statement lifted from their website; aiming to promote and protect UK interests, values, and citizens abroad, while also working to make the UK more secure and prosperous.
  13. Disgusting . Revealing the identity of the poor victim before his family have been informed.
  14. To start, Farang is not a Thai word. It is a corruption of a French word. Second, Farang is easy to say and everyone understands the meaning whatever their language. Third, ExPats do use the word Farang, maybe it's only you that doesn't.
  15. The disrespect is not wearing a shirt
