Delivery Driver Can't Find Address
you're in Thailand and he's a delivery guy that doesn't deal with tourists on a normal basis, so why would he need to know English? Do you expect people in the USA to speak Thai when Thai's visit the USA? you say you're a valuable tourist then talking about working.. so which is it?

Yingluck Patiently Awaits Homecoming In Thaksin’s Style
you still dont understand how Thailand works.. It doesn't matter what the people want or the military. There is one very high person that decides all. Thaksin was pushed out because he was pushing the limits and someone didn't like that. Do you really think the Military will preform a coup without the highest approval?

Supply and demand control the price of oil, not the president of the USA.

Makro Prices
actually the US has increased production in the past few years and produces just a little under what both Russia and Saudi Arabia produce together. The USA produces a little over 21 million BPD Saudi a little over 12 million BPD Russia a little over 10 million BPD But what does this have to do with Marko prices in Thailand?

Phuket officials accused of extorting Thai women and their foreign husbands
Sure corruption is good when it works for you....what happens when you have an issue with someone and they have more money to pay the officials to fix things for them? How about when you're told you did someone wrong and you didn't do anything but they want money??

Women and Thailand expert discusses the misconceptions about Thai women.
sadly he he still doesn't understand Pattaya and why allot of guys come to Thailand. Also, it doesn't matter if the girl works in a bar or not, she can still be a gold digger. I've had several friends marry a bar girl and have had great relationships. I've had a few friends that married an office girl and got taken to the cleaners. so, as anywhere in the world it depends on the girl, not where she works. These guys come to Thailand and after 2-3 years they think they know everything and believe they are an expert..lol

Old Geezers getting tattoos
What do you think the old ladies that get tattoos think? I've seen ladies in the USA that are in their 70's getting a tattoo, are they thinking the young studs will chase them? Tattoos have been around for thousands of years, dont think that is a fad.

Overstayer Busted at Airport
it might be easy to get out of Thailand unnoticed but then what? The country you entered into you didn't enter legally so you'll have issues there too. OP Sorry to say but your friend has no real options other than remain in Thailand until he's caught which could mean a lifetime ban or deal with things now so he can return in the future. The days that an IO would careless and joke about an overstay are long gone.

Intl. Credit Card (Chase) and FoodPanda
For online purchases I use a company called Privacy (https://app.privacy.com/) This company sets up virtual credit cards for online use. When using the card with a vendor you dont have to use your real name or address. There are options as one time use, pause, set limit amount, etc like this for trail offers so I dont forget to cancel before the 90 days. I use this company for almost all of my only transactions.

Tightest Thai budget
I remember him, that was several years ago. Wonder if Thailand got too expensive for him and maybe he moved to a cheaper place like Cambodia.
