Doesn't really matter what government we get.  As long as investors feel better again.....for the rest they're all the same

Don't think it's a golddigger thing at all. In so many area's a girl a little bit smarter than average will not accept the man's world so many thai men sill think they have the right to. At least that's my observation......

True in a completely non economic thought proces. Just wish they would be able to run the country's economy up a little....

a clear sign that it is impossible to expect any improvement any time in the next ...what? Decades??

There are examples of coutry's getting rid of almost their entire police force, and replacing it with a completely new one. 

How can it be so clear that an entire branche of government workers ( several branches that is ) are not functioning and nobody is able to do ANYTHING about it?

Or aren't they trying at all?  I hope so , else it would bevery very disgracefull .

What a great world we live in , were people die of hunger , and other people are poor because of oversuply of food in their sector.....???

A report at the police station and some pressure with a lawyer got me part of my payment back in monthly terms once.  It is not millions so a settlement should be possible to force this way

The slow death of something that was once a beacon for many?

Very nice place to stay and live with your family indeed. Crime is low and very clean.......have some nice property available there

Brought one from Laos to Thailand and then into Holland, no questions asked

Typical solution. Don't talk about it then it is not a problem........seen that a lot here....Of course they should subsidise like any government does in hard times but hey. stuck in the middle.....

Guess it's like anywhere else in the world then. people are different. never had any problems with all of this and i do not really bother to take care of these things at all, so am pretty sure it has happened a lot already. i asked my wife and family and all said the same thing mai pen arai.

Did you get married before 2002?

After that year they could not force her to change her name.

No married in 2011..But yeah i've always doubted her understanding of this situation myself, but did not find it nescessary to figure out.  I do know the lady there pushed her to change name, but what exactly has been said??    Kinda liked her having my name so i see no problem. They said it was something like transparancy in dealings in Thailand with the Farang husbands money....

How and why as to the rules i have no clue, but indeed my wife had to change her name when we got married for the law. Also no sure if this was for the non o visa i have. But she did have to change to my surname......

Try stamping on a bht note in front of Thais, and then come back and tell us that it is only the 'stuck up' Thais that care about these things.

Yes indeed the king is a different thing. But thought it was about soles of feet and the common people.  Pat my whole families kids on the head too. mai pen arai. 

Plain and simple, that's child abduction.  i Know my wife could never cross a border, leaving Europe,  with our child .She needs to show a letter of permission from me, or won't be able to board a plane. That is Holland and i suppose main land Europe. Don't know the rules elsewhre, but can imagine they have somthing similar there.

A visit to the police station will be sufficient to mark her name . She will get a visit from child protection service and police soon after.

And leaving will be concidered a crime. Thailand has good understandings with the Duth government in these matters. That is what i have seen in past experiences in my surroundings. Hope your country has the same

Good luck to you.

Oh BARF, don't you just hate that self patting on the back

What Thailand does for government really is of little interest to me, regard it as something for the Thais to sort out. The only thing that interests me is the status of foreigners in the country, as long as there are no major dramas there, business being business, then not really interested.

 

Lets face it, elected governments can make just as much mischief as a military one if they so choose. My elected home government seems to make life more burdensome than the military Thai one. Suspect the military will stay till they resolve what is probably really concerning them.

NOt sure about your bussiness, but overal we have seen a big dent in bussiness due to the current politics. Slow slow slow. That is if you NOT read the papers. If you do all is fine in Thailand.

It's starting to look like a lost country with no foreseeable good outcome in any way for the future....

Normal  Thai don't care a bout your soles...

Only the stuck up ones do......Just like in any country in regard to  very very very old rules of etiquette......Nobody in their right mind is bothered by them.

But hey in Europe you would be concidered a peasant too if you place your bare feet on the chair in a resaturant, so that's not a typical thai trade i guess.

The Dutch system seems to be working real fine.

We give free dope to the hardcore addicted .....Yep free heroin ........And of course legal ( ah well semi) softdrugs .

The crime rates as well as the rates of harddrugs addictions have dropped significantly after they gave the sheit away for free. Unrest in the streets form addicts hanging around steeling and causing problems has also dropped in huge numbers. 

And decriminalizing soft drugs has made the gap between soft and hard so wide it is not a natural connection anymore, like it is in many countries were drugs are still one of the biggest problems with their population.

But hey that will go right against what they believe has to be done......So good luck to you all people of Thailand.

Ah well as long as it is your doctor selling you the poison , don;t expect him to deliver you the cure too.............

Getting lost on Koh Chang means you better stay in the resort. It means you have no skills whatso ever and did not bother to look at any landmarks, the sun or anything. You should be ale to find your way there within a few hours........Very poor survival skills for forest hikers....

Guess i'll be home then 24/ 7 365 days a year . Sitting on my sofa....omg sounds like a waterproof plan again....

oh boy. a step further away

It depends, generally it works and will save you money. But if you have nice insolation , bu these crappy , bad fitting wood frames round your windows........get my point?

But yes it works and in the long run will be saving you money
