BiB here could learn something from Cambodian Police of how to do actual policework ... but I guess they could learn from anyone ...

Mr. Pavin said the train ride which will accommodate 250 passengers per trip is expected to bring huge revenue in favor of local economy and benefit tourist industry in the northern region.

Can we hear how many trillions Baht its gonna bring if tourists are actually lured in to this Death trap ... ?

Hub of Big Brother ...

What is the government supposed to do to protect its citizen from other countries' air?

World's biggest dome?

Can hear you have never been to CM - The smog in CM comes from burning and not other countries´ air as you call it. CM corrupt politicians and Police dont do anything about it (can see the fires everywhere) even tho its a danger to CM Airport operations and everybodys Health in CM. Enough to get the hell out of CM considering also have Thailands worst Immigration ...

I just wish to see a certain General in prison for many years for the crimes he has put on this Country - of course also the hundreds of thousands of the other ba$tards ...

I cant see any big Winner in a thai Casino get home with the Money (or alive) .... Nobody is to be trusted here ...

What a dump of a country ... another fat cat to lick the cream while common people starve ...

This is beyond astounding.

Danish citizens who have worked and paid (substantial) taxes their entire lives have their pensions reduced and lose the right to vote if they move???

Yet freeloading economic migrants who contribute nothing are welcomed with open arms and given a free 'all-you-can-eat buffet' of social security benefits.

What's wrong with this picture?

Yeah not sure what happening over there. Plenty wrong with that. Personally I have only voted ONCE in my life. And that was whether we should join the Euro or not. With hindsight I am not only glad for myself, but for the entire Swedish populace, that I was right.

Having said that. I love immigrants. One of the only things I liked about Sweden growing up there, as a SWEDE, was them. Not the racist hateful bigots who I despised. Glad to see that most people think like me, but the majority still swallow the anti-Russian and pro NATO propaganda that we are all spoon-fed with.

Why didnt you just in Rosengården with Muhammed and all his criminal friends then ... ?

Go Sverigedemokraterne ....

The agent you use to buy your second condo can easily get around this...if he is any use at all.

Most of them are useless, esp. P. homes ...

I wait for the headline from TAT : "Thailand to build copy of Angkor Wat to lure Tourists"

Call in SWAT and snipers - these economic illegal migrants have only just started their criminal rampage ...

Again the neighbor calling the BiB about pesky foreigners have been cheated ... No Wonder nobody help the uniformed goons ...

One of the worst lotteries ever! And it is government controlled.

Agree ... Its a way for the Govt to keep the poor in the dirt ...

Sadly talking Lottery-prices etc. is all they have done in the last year ... Ridiculous country but seems like thais are okay with that or too lazy to bother ...

I expect to have a 3-some this weekend but anyone can "expect", a little like dreaming so dream on TAT with your fantasy tourist numbers and good luck with the quality tourists hahaha ...

I've lived in the convention condo, The resort and now I'm in Baan suan.

Baan Suan is the worst of the three from my point of view. The gym is a small aquarium with 2-3 rusty machines, pool is nice but it's in the parking, personally after a pool in garden like at the resort, I barely go to the one at baan suan. View might be good if you are on the doi suthep side, but the other half has either view to the inside which means view on the opposite room or view on a construction site (the hinoki condo). I find it dark, old looking and depressing, trying to find something else asap.

This is my personal opinion

Forgot to inform you that Baan Suan will soon have view to a Construction site on the doi Suthep side as well since Touch Hill will continue to build Touch Hill 2, that have been on stand by for almost 2 years I am told, so Baan Suan not the place to go if you like Peace and quiet ...

On top of this there is also a Real Estate Agency that takes care of most of the free condos - this Agency is really not that realiable - this is what some tennants there say so be careful ....

Sorry if this have already been up or are in a wrong forum.

The owners and tennants in our Condominium have been asked to give copy of Passport + copy of Visa in Passport to Condo Manager before the end of the week. This is a request from CM Immigration.

According to Manager CM Immigration came in person and asked him to do this. They would not inform him how often this is gonna go on.

So is this only applying for CM or is it happening all over Thailand and what are they doing about foreigners in houses ?

Maybe they should had paid some EU-politicians Brown envelopes size of 150 mill. B instead of some boring show tennismatch ... Ban them

Other countries can easily deliver seafood instead the low quality Thai seafood fished by slaves ...

<snipped>

I would love to know what cover we as bank customers have if a bank in Thailand goes bust I envisage that we would loose everything we had in it !!!!

A good questions. Are there possible direct repercussions for people having money in these banks?

Time to clean out all "Fixed Accounts" and get the hell out of here before its too late I think ... I dont envy people stuck here with property here once the "Great Firewall" come and all Investments and expats leave

I hand over my passport, at Kap Cheong, they key into their computer, print out a new form with the new reporting date, hand it back and I am gone. Five minutes these days, hours a few years back.

Thats gonna stop if Kap Cheong Immigration get a Visa Agency next door as is situation here in CM - Nobody should move to CM cause of this Immigration, just horrible ...

I hope they have enough ambulances ready, when drunk drivers enters the roads where marathon takes place ...

Major loss of face for EGAT but cudos for doing the necessary = hiring foreigners before everything goes down the toilet (which is soon) ....

Yes for all the PM --military bashers----------please note, It will have to be put off indefinitely -------GET IT----so all of you minority agenda TVF members, read the topic before splurting out all your agenda rubbish.

You must mean General - military bashers ... That doughy guy is certainly no PM ...

Only warning - the Brown envelope has spoken ...

Dont really think Djokovic and Nadal deserve any respect for this - seems like somebody cant get enough Money and will sell their soul for anything ... This arrangement stinks ...

Just push the jalopy down the hill, pop the clutch, and, oops, watch out for the cliff....crash/burn.

You say if the economy doesn't recover it is because, "the brakes failed!"

and the Economics Czar fleed the scene ....
