  1. What’s a safe entry? Agent ?
  2. I have a Hua Wei about 5/6 years, and it does everything I need .and also has a good ish camera .i don’t do banking on it. What would be the best camera that does not cost a fortune , is easy to use , and a great camera , thanks. I gave up on apple before that and would never buy one again. I do have an iPad mini tho.
  3. I’m sure it doesn’t include little children, not that I condone any corporal punishment at all.
  4. I wonder what the law is concerning child abuse/ violence in Thailand ? Does it exist ? I believe each classroom should have CCTV ( that functions) , it would prove the abuse of children, and help when kids have been misbehaving badly. This teacher should be banned from teaching and also have a jail sentence.
  5. The day when they stop the road massacre, and have proper road crossings that work , then I will believe it. Safety ? What are they doing about the violence caused mainly by foreign men who believe Thailand is the country with no laws. Not a day goes by without violence, not only Pattaya, Phuket is just as bad. It’s just bad news for *normal* tourists who will go elsewhere.
  6. This is why I only book at hotels I know and trust, or if I don’t know them, they belong to a decent chain of hotels. Yes, not exciting, but I know what I’ll get and a correct price.
  7. I was just thinking about that . The hotel in chiang Mai, and then I think also Koh Samui ? The rooms and mattresses had been sprayed with toxic bug killer. Made headlines in the UK and Thailand. A few ladies died. As it was widely published, I think it frightened a lot of hoteliers and they stopped using these deadly chemicals. Hopefully for good. Terrible death. Otherwise, ladies are generally safe in Thailand. I would advise only using hotel taxis , or don’t use alone. Also , not getting drunk or high , also avoiding lonely places like waterfalls . Thai men don’t usually bother with foreign girls, they feel overshadowed by them. ( this repeated to me from some Thai men friends ).
  8. Have a look at Richard Barrow who is THE train expert in Thailand. He’s been the expert for many years now , and anyone wanting to a train trip goes first to him for the best advice. He always take the inaugural trip of all new destinations so you know first hand what you’re going to get. Personally , I love a good train trip and have been on many following Richard’s advice. He has a huge following on FB if anyone is interested.
  9. Happened to me many times. I’m sitting there alone, order a steamed fish and the waitress asks “ one?”
  10. Lesson is, never buy a condo in areas prone to earthquakes, and floods.
  11. Most probably Min Aung Hlaing in cohorts with his Chinese chums.
  12. TAT , do you really believe we are that stupid? yesterday you were crying rivers of how Thailand had no tourists and was in dire straits. Think before you speak please, you are making a fool of yourselves.
  13. The question is , who does that to a little boy of 6 ? little kids are always squabbling in the school yard, an occasional push now and again. That’s kids, I see it all the time . If it was a case of bullying, it should have been reported correctly and dealt with. That man is nothing but a wild animal.
