this country is really going downhill. have they learned nothing???????? no.......of course not.......not capable of that. personally, i will be taking regular breaks from LOS every year now, that way, I might fall back in love with the place. the 60 day visa with 30 day extension is a game changer as far as i am concerned. can lose my O visa, and utilise my 800k for some decent travel. Exchange rate is pants now also.........

I had the same experience earlier this year in Da Nang. Horrendous Karaoke from a house near to my Airbnb. It was just ridiculously loud. Remedy..........hooked up laptop to tv in the room. Went to You Tube, found a video of heavy rain.........turned it up full blast.........completely drowned out the noise. Drifted off to sleep listening to the rain......bliss.

Thailand's Expats Urged to Register with TRD for Tax, Says Expert
nickmondo replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Just another company trying to get clients. Preying on the ex pats who believe all that they read. I cannot get away with telling you my true opinion of these businesses. -
it is now deemed to be socially acceptable to be overweight and obese. Personally, I blame the young men. If the young men accept the fat girls, then they will just get fatter and fatter. The young men need to take action and put a stop to this atrocity. Tell the girls, they are not interested if they are fat. I find it disgusting. Thailand now has as many fat people as every other country imo. Its not acceptable to me, and my thai gf knows that. Call me shallow, whatever, i really dont care. If i want a fat bird, i will go back to England.

Phuket taxi driver hits foreign man on airport zebra crossing
nickmondo replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Thai drivers do not know what a Zebra crossing is, because they are not taught the Highway Code as we are in the Real world. They dont know what it is. Same as a red light on a Zebra crossing.......to them its a pretty light that shines 2 colours, red and green. Take into account also, the Me, me, me attitude of Thais in general. No one else matters........dont get in my way....especially if you are walking or on 2 wheels. -

I live Hua Hin. I am from UK, also living on Pension, but I have additional income for now also. When you plan, do so with a worse case scenario regarding exchange rate. For example, look at how many baht you spend each month now. Then do a conversion using the worse case scenario. ie. 40,000 a month at 40 baht. Is this going to be affordable? If not, look at other options.........but there are not many to find that are better than Thailand. I went to Da Nang in Vietnam as I had heard how great it was. In my opinion.........its the opposite. Its the worst place i have been in SE Asia. Wont go into why, have not got time..........but everything was <deleted>e. Maybe another place in Vietnam would be better.......but for sure, it was NOT cheaper than Thailand.
