  1. I've always like former PM Chuan Leekpai. He was steadily building the Thai economy back after the money crash in 1997. His governess was solid and back by good sound financial principles, but... it was too slow and Thaksin came in promising the moon... except for the people in the South. He only had a baseball bat for them. Yes, they were an impediment to progress in the South, but his bullies attacked rather than maneuvering around the lies of the NGOs who were filling the populous with horror stories.

  2. Most of you know very little about the hard working honest Thai people.  I've worked with them in the petroleum drilling and production business. They are very competent people and are more than capable of building, operating and maintaining a nuclear facility. I'm sure they will be at least, if not more, competent than the US Americans and Russians. (Three mile Island and Chernobyl come to mind).

    Welcome Gerjan,

    Just to clarify a few things first:

    1. "English (or Dutch) classes" meaning just the language? e.g. ESL (English as a second language) or do you mean all subjects in English (or Dutch?)

    2. Your employer is willing to pay 200,000 (two hundred thousand) Baht for the six months?

    3. How much are you willing to pay on top of that?

    4. Bangkok is huge, which area would you be living in?
     

    @Gerjan Before anyone can help you, other than throwing out wild comment, you should help 'us' but answering the above questions. Otherwise, just wasting time.

  5. Interesting discussion: I was told that the photo is an aid to help them identify you, which is why they don't want people to smile. They want a 'dead' face, which I would expound to include into the glasses question. You're probably not going to have glasses on when that motorcycle knocks you into the next world. That's how I 'look' at it.

     

    Added after post: "aid to help identify you" should you die (in your sleep, at the opera, on the back of a motorcycle taxi or at a crosswalk). Be safe "OneMoreFarang", I'd miss you. ????????
