  1. Do it. Should work out for the best.
  2. Jomtien use to be a quiet place. Kind of a Thai hangout especially on the weekends. Now, it has become very popular especially with foreigners. It is never going to be quiet now. Will just get busier. Those who bought condos with their now 2am noisy ocean view condos very sad.
  3. Do what ever you think to protect it, but a true hacker can get into your phone and get about everything. So, bottom line don't lose it. Or, if you do hopefully it will be in a Thai taxi.
  4. Another high speed rear end collision. Nothing will ever change their terrible driving habits are ingrained in the culture.
  5. Sure, if he has a roll of dough he can have a great time. No problem I bet the girls will gladly accommodate him. One concern would be STD. I doubt a 90 year old cares about condoms and an infection may not be good for his overall health at that age.
  6. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1402913/thailand-average-staff-wage-of-hotel-and-food-service-per-month/#:~:text=Average monthly wage for hotel and food service workers Thailand 2014-2022&text=In 2022%2C the average monthly,higher than the previous year. Some of the larger hotel chains in Bangkok have been using student interns as staff but their prices are up 50%. And, the hotel staff workers don't make much anyway. I call foul on this article the price increases seemed to occur after reopening I assume to make up for their losses or greed.
  7. part of that investigation police say they found evidence that Mr James purchased sexual services from minors working at the bar. Sounds like he committed multiple offenses. lock him up.
  8. ? How bout she went to his hotel and they have is ID and video. Duh...
  9. They can list the reasons, but many of us know the truth. 10's of millions of males single or in bad marriages want to come here. Mostly sick of the woman in their countries with bad attitudes, fat, and weird hangups. Why not; Booze, good food, good prices and plenty of sex here. Take out a few of the negatives and it is male nirvana.
  10. "But wondering if there is a better place to go. This could be serious." Yes, I would go to your home country and get MOHS surgery. Here, they wanted to make a 6 inch incision along my cheek down past my nose. It would have disfigured me and made my face uglier then it is. MOHS surgery is less invasive and they biopsy immediately what they remove and make sure they got it all.
  11. Not current members of course, but too many scammers out there.
  12. I get your complaints. But, what do you expect in reality Pattaya area is one of the most popular entertainment areas in Asia now. Especially near the bigger beaches there will be constant noise. So, my suggestion would be to get away and stay at the Darkside or Bang Saray if you want quiet cuz it ain't going to change and will probably get worse with all the holidays and planned events coming.
  13. Wow, good for you but if you are always using a meter you are paying 300 to 400 baht more then the standard quoted price from Bangkok to Pattaya. Buy hey, at least you got the ride your way.
  14. If you sit and watch them it is amazing how many people give them money. Mostly short time foreign tourists who probably think they are poor Thai people.
  15. Wow, should make life much better for so many people.
  16. Nothing will ever get done. In 20 years it will be uninhabitable.
  17. They will never ever do anything about this as it takes enginuity and technology and most of all lots of money.
  18. If you don't like it, go to another Doctor or buy the med. in a pharmacy and get your blood test at a clinic.
  19. You booked the cheapest seats so you have to pay for selection. Did you pay?
  20. Terrible disgusting people giving British a bad name.
  21. I agree. Overall, the fatter ones are more eager to please.
  22. Isn't there some vague Thai law a few years ago that filming people without their permission is not allowed? Anyway, the bar girls and customers don't like it much. The girls don't want their family or sponsors to know what they are doing and where they are. Customers mostly just don't want their activity displayed for others. In reality, these vloggers are trying to make money by exploiting Thai people, especially females. I bet none of them have work permits or pay taxes.
  23. Yes, more then ever. Inconsiderate and rude to openly watch a movie with no headphones on a plane. Or, having a full loud conversation on a phone in a public restaurant or shop. The sign of the times people could careless about others. Add, the general loud speakers, motorcycles and cars with no mufflers. Thailand is a very loud place.
  24. The roads mostly are not exactly safe. Terrible unsafe drivers. They most all s drive the same so they think they are doing it right. Check the stats they are messed up. High speed and following too close are the worst. I have never been the victim of a crime here. In other countries I have.
