More Thais Staying Single, Impact on Weddings and Florists
NorthernRyland replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Is this a major city? Are they well paid and fully occupied by their company? It's the same all over the world. If you put a woman in this position she won't have a family and work until she dies like the men. -
Non-Asian breakfast so no boiled rice or fried chicken and sticky rice. 🙂

Look at what's happening with USAID now in America. These NGOs are just slush funds with some "humanitarian" veneer to sell to the public. The government employees make money by taking from the tax payers and then dump Somalians in to your town. They go home as smug savers of the world loaded with sacks of cash and you're left wondering why girls keep getting their genitals carved up with razorblades by their parents. https://www.voanews.com/a/female-genital-mutilation-somali-community-united-states/3557311.html

Thailand Faces Severe Air Pollution Crisis as PM2.5 Levels Soar
NorthernRyland replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
They would literally have to start executing people caught starting fires to make them stop and even then I think they'd still try it. Most of the people up in the mountains are not Thai even, they're hill tribes from China, Burmese and various mixed races. They could give a damn about air quality. Last thing on their minds. -
Thailand Faces Severe Air Pollution Crisis as PM2.5 Levels Soar

Ah yes lovely Chiang Mai "The hidden Jewel of Southeast Asia. The Rose of the North." Never a truer statement uttered. After I finish this fancy latte in a restaurant packed full of Chinese tourists and hippy backpackers girls I'm going to step outside to inhale some authentic Lanna Kingdom smoke. -
A German buffet. Huge menu it looks like too. Extremely painful location for me to get to but I'll try it sometime. https://www.facebook.com/@aufderaubistro https://aufderaubistro.com/dinner/

There was a 7 day festival in my town last week with loud music at night (Just the usual Thai market with Thai music affair) so I decided to take a few days to tour around Chiang Dao. Unbeknownst to me there was the annual "Shambala" festival happening in Chiang Dao at the very same time. Hundreds of new age hippies were crawling around the valley and hotels were packed out make it hard to find a good place to stay. These people colonize areas like Pai and have constructed a narrative about what Thailand is and are living out some collective fantasy for the rest of the us to experience. Shambala is fitting because they themselves are shams. I really dislike this people. They could wreck Chiang Dao along Pai potentially if they colonize it. The amount of Korean, Japanese and Chinese new age cosplayers I saw was noteworthy. I didn't know they were in to that stuff too.

During the previous waves of immigrants the federal government was tiny, there wasn't even an income tax then! The worst an immigrant could do is go broke and become a beggar or go back home. Today they have numerous government funded programs they can attach to and drain the tax payers. Finally the immigrants back then were coming from Europe, not 3rd world countries which use government services at a higher rate than the native population. Billions of people in the planet so it's crazy to think the US can support and unlimited number of the worlds poor.

Thailand May Ease Overseas Income Tax Rules Amid Global Changes
NorthernRyland replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So you were tax cattle back home and now you're tax buffalo in Thailand. How is this a win? You could have literally done nothing and been in the same situation as before.
