  1. The average age of a foreigner coming to Pattaya is 50+, I can never understand nor do I think some bar owners realise they don’t want their ears blasted by Thai music albeit we are in Thailand and at the same wondering why they have no customers.
  2. He has 30k subscribers on YouTube, on his Sunday Live Show Sunday people from abroad buy shots for the bargirls, they end up p**** and cause mayhem, so he is making money there. He also makes income from memberships as well from his YouTube channel. If the government decide YouTubers based in Thailand need a Work Permit things could change and a few Pattaya YouTubers could be in the s*** as they rely on that for their income.
  3. The only real way to judge if a bar is successful is visit it at various times of the day and the year. I am sure not all the takings will be going through the till so an audit of the takings won’t mean a thing.
  4. There is a bar on Soi Bukhao near Soi 21, in the years I have been here it has never has any customers, definitely a laundry bar. I don’t think the 4 new bars in Soi 7 owned by the same person are laundry bars, I think he genuinely thinks he can make a go of it, good luck to him.
  5. In Big C they sell 4 small bottles of Chang for฿134 that’s ฿33 a bottle, yes bars have to make a profit but some sell it for ฿100 plus and even more in go go bars.
  6. I keep saying that about Pattaya, I have lived here for 10 years and have seen a decline in the number of foreigners coming in high season over the years. With the high airfares this is not going to change plus the poor exchange rate, Thailand is no longer a cheap holiday, bar owners open bars with no business plan some open a new one in low season, they then will have few lean months till high season hoping there will be customers, living on hope doesn’t pay the bills.
  7. Nick Dean has just opened his 3rd bar of 4th bar on Soi 7, it has capacity for 200 customers he said, good luck to him, being the ever pessimist I just can’t see where the customers are going to come from.
  8. Can I can transfer the car to her name at the Land Transportation Office,if so what documents would I need ?
  9. My car is in my name, if I passed away suddenly would my Thai partner not wife be able to sell it ?
  10. Has the the fella in Cambodia stepped down recently and appointed his son ?
  11. I think you might that they do want to take to the streets but that’s just what the army junta want them to do then they can take over again.
  12. Scroll back through the comments there is a link there.
  13. How many countries in S.E. Asia have democratic elections, Cambodia have just had an election, it was from Democratic !
  14. This is the first generation who voted in the last election, I think it will take the next generation to make changes, by that time all the old dinosaurs will have passed away and Pita will still be around.
  15. On a different topic if using the monthly income for an Extension can you withdraw money as soon as you obtain the Extension or do you have to leave a balance similar the the ฿800k ?
  16. How do you know some one who doesn’t have a pot to pee in if they don’t have the ฿800k in the bank here, you are being very presumptuous, even if they don’t they are contributing towards Thailands economy.
  17. Any one with a criminal record irrespective of having Criminal Record Check will find a way, there could be loads living here on overstay. As long as they stay under the radar they will never be found, the Police never ever as far I know have a stop and search policy asking for documents not unless you commit an offence.
  18. Traffic Police no different from the Royal Thai Police, or any other law enforcement agency in Thailand they never enforce the law as written.
  19. And people bragging how they have ฿800k in the bank yellow books and pink ID Cards.
  20. Agreed, this is not an everyday occurrence, it appears allegedly to be a ‘mafia type execution’
  21. It’s a shame the Police don’t commit so much time to traffic offences and road deaths, 1 murder and they are like flies round s*** ! If it was Thais involved in this atrocity it would barely make the headlines or what about Thai woman who murdered 15 with cyanide ?
  22. Too many snouts in the trough to stop that, I think Big Joke was looking into stuff like that and got moved sideways before being removed after a year. He was appointed as the chief of the Immigration Bureau in September 2018 and removed from his post in 2019 for unclear reasons. As chief of the Immigration Bureau, he frequently appeared in news headlines
  23. The real criminals will be living under a false identity here, we all know brown envelopes can help smooth the passage. A few weeks ago it was the Chinese who bought the Police out to set up illegal gambling in Thailand.
  24. Well you keep talking about them if there is, because some one gets murdered an every day occurrence in most countries you want everyone to arrives to have a Police check. if Thailand is so concerned they should introduce the ESTA system used to enter the States or the ETIAS system for people who live in non Eu countries including the U.K. who want to visit an EU country to be introduced in 2024.
  25. People who live in glass castles shouldn’t throw stones. if Thailand is full of scumbags why are you living here ?
