The impact threw the motorcyclist across the car, and he LATER fell on the road.

Was he up in the air a long time ? Seriously though I hope he is ok .

For reference - not only Thailand where UK State Pension is frozen but also Burma, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam in this part of the World.

My UK State Pension is frozen at 102 GBP per week, the same as 15 years ago! Fortunately I get two indexed linked police pensions in addition.

That's certainly true in Pattaya, which is becoming unlivable during the high season. BUT it's hardly likely to be due to foreign tourists, most of whom don't own or rent a car here. If the ever-increasing volume of traffic on the roads is caused by tourists, then they're of the Thai domestic variety, and this dubious tax will be pointless.

If there was no prostitution in Pattaya the s-hole would be empty...oh wait... there is no prostitution in Pattaya !

Asking a Russian to be respectful and to not be rude is like asking an indigenous Alaskan to not eat fish. It's a bit like asking a Frenchman to demonstrate affection toward an American, or asking a Thai government official to show warmth and hospitality toward an expat living here. 

I visited my son in Moscow when he worked there, before I Went over he warned me not to be my usual self. Don't laugh and joke with the immigration , don't hold the door open for anybody, being nice is a sign of weakness ...lol.. I also learned the spasiba/pajalsta/privyet... or whatever . He was there for 4 years , I only went twice ...

if you are in Phuket (little Moscow), you have to accept the Russian culture. The people there should know the Russian language

Last time I looked Phuket was in Thailand ? Why should they learn Russian , wrong way round ...

All this started in Phuket .

But Phuket is too packed with foreigners , tourists and longer staying Russians .

There is no place left on the island .

Sure , the locals want to earn money , they do this in the moment .

Too many different nationalities and cultures packed together in a tight space creates tensions , that's clear ...

So , who is at fault ?

The politicians who welcomed tourists after locals complained about not earning enough money after Covid ?

Or the locals who got much more farangs than they wanted ...?

Be careful what you wish for .

The Sri Lankan way to get rid of ( russian ) people is becoming more plausible every day ...

Be careful what you wish for .

 

Too many foreigners ... stress for locals , but enough money to be made .

Much less foreigners ... not enough money , people will complain again ...

Phuket is ripoff territory.. brought about by locals
