If Thai's smoke it they might become lefties.

Once you have your cloud set up in AWS it is very difficult to move it somewhere else. Invest in AMZN is easy money.

Imagine 1.6 billion people in India and 20% are joining the middle class. They might all like to come to Thailand because their own beaches are so covered in rubbish.

Indians will take over Thailand as the #1 tourist group in the future.

It seems a little too easy to file legal complaints against others in Thailand. I was thinking today that the courts and legal system must be huge.

They don't have my size. 13 4e

79$ USD. Then it is $50 for delivery and $50 for import tax which Amazon handles for you. Unfortunately the order has not been shipped yet.

Deport!

The Conspiracy is Capitalism! Capitalism creates inequality, injustice and unfairness. Not what they say, that it creates economic equality - it is the opposite. A few very wealthy and lot of people who's real wages have not risen since the 1970. So naturally there is going to be racism and anger at the system. It is blacks, women, minorities, natives etc who are disproportionately effected by the inequality. Immigration is all about keeping wages low for the wealthy employers.

Ok it's done. $168 USD for a pair of Nikes!

I'm ordering some shoes from Amazon sent to my guesthouse, do i need a local number? I have a virtual number from my country, would that work? I think it is UPS that handles delivery from them.

Why don't they change the name to 'Pattiya?"

Most of them have no idea how to cut hair. If you want a good hair cut you need to pay in Thailand. They don't understand the shape of the farang "peanut" head.

Why wouldn't you just pay 1900 baht to extend your visa?

These are how the build are made in Thailand and Asia: crappy. Poor quality. No water proofing. A building can last 1000's of years or it can last 25 years. A proper house or building needs a roof, it needs water proofing on the exterior and the basement foundations. As well as around windows or any opening. All seem to be missing in the typical Thai structure. Water is the enemy, it destroys everything in every country. I would suggest to your friend to sell up and move on. Once you have water damage it can be hard to fix.

Just don't live on the high floor condo.

Wow 45 days. I am just gonna spray my shorts! Meanwhile i am in India with my 5 year visa good till Oct 2024 for only $150. Swimming and surfing are great in Kerala btw,

Polished floors is the best option if you don't like mold in your house. One thing to watch out for is the floors will be slightly damp. So don't put any thing wood directly on to it or it will rot. You can cover with metal or plastic. There is a guesthouse in Krabi i stay in with cement floors that just smoothed concrete with coloring and some inlays. looks great, maybe 10 years old, no cracks. Same in the shower and bathroom. If there is a crack just fill it in a paint over it!

Mold will grow. Make sure you use a underlayment.

Most people spend their lives working for an employer with their wages stuck for years, paying off debt, stuck in a job they don't like. If you can spend you like in Asia, i think you did ok.

Every day at 12 noon there is knock on the door and they say "you stay another night?" But there is hardly anyone here. Then when i come down it is "700 baht" Everyday pay. In Nepal in India i can stay weeks and not pay until i leave. Here they are so paranoid about some farang running off without paying. How often does this actually happen? It some Thai myth. Also when i asked about a discount for 1 week or even 1 month the manager got really offended and told me to check the hotel next store. How rude! Again managers in Nepal or India would never act like this they would immediately make a deal, they love making deals. What is with all the hostility with Thai's? I rented a peddle bike and came back after a couple of hours, the same manager came up and started scrutinizing the bike like Sherlock Holmes as if i smashed it up in the short time. They really know how to make you feel like you are just a number. It is amazing they do so well with tourism. Is this some sort of reverse psychology?
