Naked German Tourist Tasered After Koh Tao Rampage
No he doesn't belong to Pattaya, he belongs to a zoo somewhere in Germany. Deport him and don't forget his clothes and to stamp "Banned" in his passport. Bye bye Thailand. What's wrong with people coming here? Naked runners, sex on the beach performers. Btw sex on the beach is a drink not a stunt. But to be honest the two naked ladyboys running after an Indian was hilarious. 😁

Morchit Driver's License Renewal Peripheral Eye Test?
I did this test about 2 years ago at Bangkok DLT 4. Had problems too, but finally passed the test. I had a feeling the woman were helping me.

Pick up Truck Valuation
285k .. It's crazy and many tents are closing down because they can't sell their stock of cars. In my opinion this is because they opened the doors for cheap Chinese EV cars. I have heard that Honda is closing some of their factories here, Nissan too I believe. People are loosing jobs.

Pick up Truck Valuation
I feel sorry for you, the market for used cars has dropped the last 6 months. I was planning to sell my Toyota hilux truck but I had to change my mind. Mine was the top model when I bought it new 2020 and it has only 52000 km on the odo. All services made and it is nearly in mint condition. But I'm not going to give it away so I will keep it. Good luck with tour MG truck!!

Thailand 3rd Globally in Taxi Scam Complaints, Survey Reveals
I have watched some Tiktok videos made by a Thai police man in Bangkok. He has stopped many taxis breaking the law in different ways. The other day he stopped a pink taxi and nothing were legal on that car. Driver had no taxi license and his driving licence had expired. The taxi had no insurance and had not payed tax. The driver tried different ways to escape the heavy fees and was lying and making stories. He had to bring the car to the police station and park it there. The police man complained and said he stopped many illegal taxis every week and there are coming new all the time, it doesn't matter how many he stops and fine. He has some kind of terminal, it looks like the one you put your credit card in when you pay in a shop. He insert the driving licence tap the cars registration number and get all info. He prints out the fine and the driver can then pay using a QR code. Seems to be quite smart.

I don't want to use cash, especially not when there is an excellent system to pay with QR code

QR Codes Debut for Taxis: Track, Report & Estimate Fares
Ok, perhaps it's good .. when I want to pay for my taxi ride, older drivers refuse to accept QR payment or payment through promptpay, they only want cash - no tracks of income 🥴

Court Orders Bt8m Damages Over Defamation of Big Joke’s Wife
8 million baht ... hm.. Apparently, it’s a completely different level of money for senior police officers and their families. When I forgot my driving licence, I only had to pay 300 baht to the ordinary policeman.

Election Video Shows Votes Marked Behind Obscured Papers
Transparency is very important, but what about the fact that votes are bought? No one seems to be upset about that. Just asking.

Giving up alcohol
I had to stop drinking alcohol about 18 months ago due to health problems. I thought it would be difficult, but it hasn’t been a problem at all, even though I sometimes miss having a glass of wine or a couple of beers. Before that, I drank regularly — not heavily, but a couple of beers, drinks, or glasses of wine almost every day.

Look out for confused tourists
What is the problem? Buy your beer or whatever it is in advance. Buy a box or three.. have a beer storage at home or in your hotel room.. how difficult can it be?

Thai QR Payments by Foreign Visitors Surge 143% Year on Year
I live here, have Thai bank account, so it's easy for me to use QR code payments. I use it all the time and so does my Thai wife. Very convenient and fast. The sellers in the market love it, then they don't need to handle cash. Nice to hear that also tourists use it more and more..
