November reopening: Bangkok called the Hub of Swabs!
BangkokReady replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
I prefer bilge-rat or knave, but as pirate insults go, I guess it works for Thailand. -
Thai women conned into selling sex in Bahrain - woman arrested

Aren't there many bonafide Thai massage places around the world? How does one know which one is a scam? -
Very sad and a hard lesson to learn. Never go guarantor on anyone else's loan, ever. Legally you're agreeing that if they cannot (or simply don't want to) pay back the loan, you will pay it back for them. It seems quite common that people default also. Cruel that someone's childhood friend would do this to them. I wonder if selling the actual vehicle to recoup some of the loss is a possibility.

There was a post a while ago claiming that people who had got a volunteer visa through an agent were having difficulty going through the COE requirements, even with a reentry permit, due to the authorities asking for additional information regarding the volunteering. Not sure how true that was, or if it will be the case in the future, but you might want to have a quick search.

An interesting and challenging idea. The things is, if you have the precepts of Buddhism on one hand and the ideas of the younger generation on the other, should they be in conflict, then you really have to make a choice. Either force the young people to act more in line with the precepts, or abandon them. If you're a monk and your business is Buddhism, you have to follow the rules, or the blessings and merits won't work. Then you cannot claim the right to not have to work.

Why not apply everywhere that deals only in appointments and see what you can get. There might be one available soon. You won't know if you don't try. You can always say no.

If you're worrying about this then there's no point in opening up. Need to concentrate on vaccination and learn to live with covid. No restrictions and treat it like the flu, or there won't be any tourists, or at least only nature overs. No one is going to come if they are treated like a leper while they are here (a leper people want to price gouge), with the constant threat of being incarcerated at your expense.

Buying house for Thai daughter
BangkokReady replied to thai999's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
How does he know he can trust her? She might have another Dad on the side. You have to be really careful in Thailand. -
Have any of you teachers received the ultimatum yet?
BangkokReady replied to user1047's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
Perhaps you just met some really bitter and negative people who shared their opinions with you. Actually, just noticed another post by you in this thread where you complain about over-educated people. Is there a chance that perhaps anyone less educated than you is bad, while anyone more educated than you is bad also? Perhaps you might want to look for the factor common to both these judgments. -
Try to be polite, but absolutely say no. Way too high a risk. If his business goes under then you lose your house. That's not a gamble I think anyone should take. It's risky even for your own business.
