  1. how the hell do they get these stats. bkk 100%? how does that leave room for any other destination?
  2. what a stupid unfounded comment. those who say this say it out of panic hoping yo rally troops under the obama name. as usual, you make unfounded guesses out of the air
  3. excuse me? any stats ort proof of this comment based on ignorance rather than facts? ill bet that in your life you have driven while under the influence of alcohol and just never got caught. you might still be doing it. one thing is sure, there are far more people boozing up than toking. wow ... may i ask what your bias is based on? taxin feels the same way. i guess you aint been around long enough. in the late 90's early 2000's he had a shoot first ask questions later war on drugs. he even got reprimanded internationally. https://www.hrw.org/news/2008/03/12/thailands-war-drugs but i guess your ok with that
  4. before being a teacher i was a railway section man , and then a conductor. i can tell you first hand that the whole infrastructure is grossly not safe. havi9mg taken the train once to laos i can say i would never do it again for dear of my life. i walked/inspected the tracks, ties rotten to the core, so many nuts and bolts missing that it made me wonder how the track stayed connected together... hardly any fire extinguishers. had i never worked for a railway i would never have spotted all these dangerous flaws
  5. IT is alleged the tents are used for laundering money. They usually are overpriced by a lot. We were shopping for a suzuki swift and all the tents were selling 8 year old models for 300k-400k. For the new model 620k. Considering thr price difference it was a no brainer... If the cars were listed at their actual value with the expdcted dealer mark up it would be win win for everyone
  6. Me thought there was an mfp dissolution in the makings? I hope it is a tsunami and not a landslide. I despise anything taxsin touches
  7. How can boats that size, of all things go missing? Does thailand have its bermuda triangle? Thailand hub of triangles
  8. wow... your username is freeworld, yet tour ideas are anything but free... good one
  9. anything wrong with my eyes makes me stress... as it should anyone. i will bear in mind your 'adventure'. thanks for sharing. i think our experiences here can benefit others
  10. can you remind me what surgery? i read back and you had retinal problems and cataract surgey. if i am not mistaken this was a lense replacement, right?
  11. phoque 🤣 or sceau
  12. btw... i brought my 1st wife in canada... the paper work was a mountain and my mother had to be a guarantor for my wife. there is no way a 22 year old thai can go travelling in canada without guarantees. i went what you are going through with a thai girl on IRCLE in 2002 but she was in australia... si ca sent la merde, ca a l'air de la merde ben... c'est de la merde translation (if it smells like sh t, looks like sh t, it is sh t)
  13. reading your posts @Olmate is painful at best. maybe edit in chatgpt before posting cryptic at best there are no agents for chantaburi or maptaphut aka rayong immigration. i desperately tried to find some before. the only way to get "help" aka corrupted agents here is to know someone on the inside.
  14. dont give them any ideas... theyll prolly even start taxing falangs globally because THIS IS THAILAND sorry about the caps lock... but this is how angry thais without any valid argument answer when they are wrong
  15. nothing whatsoever. i had to ask: can i shower? can i lift heavy objects? this dr is a lieutenant commander and her english is so so at best. my previous dr had yo go to bkk... i miss her... this hospital has no hand outs whether in tha or english... and it is actually one of the best in thailand. queen sirikit chonburi... most dr's moonlight at bkk pattaya and bkk rayong... i actually got many answers on google and here
  16. unfortunately they have already started doing that with the new taxation scheme on remittances... thailand the hub of taxation no taxation without representation... unfortunately here the answer is TIT while the wokes are going on about human rights back home they should now how foreigners are treated abroad...
  17. no... i dont download much, but when i do i dont use a vpn and you? you ask a question to which you might consider giving your own situation...
  18. 555 ok then, taxsin and sreta... that makes two what a backward thinking country this is. sorry bamnutsak... although i sincerely doesnt happen, i fear the powers that be right now are dead set on re-criminalising it again i hope they fail. no one should be jailed or branded a criminal for using weed
  19. do like other civilised countries and allow foreigners to get permanent residency more easily. it would be a lot easier and more interesting for me to start a family if i werent always subnitted to stringent visa regulations that keep changing all the time. there are also other ways i could earn a living other than teaching if i were to get a green card. most importantly i would offer better quality services than thais... if i had permanent residence. the biggest reason my wife and i did not start a family is because of the uncertainty of my stay here and the difficulty to take her back home.
  20. surgery is over. now i am in serious pain. those of you who are only inconvenienced by this procedure are VERY LUCKY. now i see a half moon black line on the right side of my eye i guess that might be the scarring from the laser.. the doctor did not really want to give me the anesthesia as @Sheryl recommended saying it did not really help. not a pleasant procedure at all. also. i just noticed, when i look atr a blank google page on my tv screen there seems to be a wobbling circle in the centre of my vision... maybe due to where i was being zapped by the laser
  21. it is called a 'chang gong' in thai and not too far from the airport off of sukhumvit going in to bkk you have the biggest collection of scrap part dealers. youll have to find it yourself as i can drive there but dont know the names of the sois. fyi they will scalp you alive. they sell 2nd hand parts nearly same price as new. i have a b1985 e30 bmw and can still find parts online cheaper than chang gong...
  22. i believe my dr that reopening an eye, taking a lense out, putting another one in can be dangerous complication wise... its not as straightforward as just putting the lense in. tomorrow i am getting the laser 360 degree surgery in the afternoon. as some members here said it was painless for them... unfortunately not my experience. the 3 times i did it i was left with a burning sensation that lasted a few weeks. needless to say, i am worried i will accidentally flinch and get zapped in the wrong place. the dr has to hold a magnifying glass in contact with my eye for the duration of the intervention... it really is uncomfortable
