Thai roads are amongst the most dangerous in the world - it will never be said enough.

No natter who careful or experienced one may be, when the reckless and the danger comes from 3rd party liability, it's is  a potential hazard... drive slow, safe and with 3x the dose of caution you would use elsewhere.

Should it be with the Palme d'Or of Cannes, The golden Lion of Venice or the Hollywood Oscars - very often, if it wins an award, it's a good movie to fall asleep when watching it back home !!!!  And having seen some extracts of the Korean movie, I cannot say Trump was wrong.

First try - take it back to the store for a refund, which of course they may refuse ?

Second try - post the rotten potatoes on Social Media, they may react after the public shame ?

Third try - if it happens to often, buy it from a street seller if possible, always fresh most of the time, and don't forget to bargain hard.

You will not be able to say if it's a good deal or not, until you move in !!!!!......what if the walls may leak ? aircon defective ? over charging in the monthly maintenance that untimately would not be done ?....noisy neighbours or a co owner neighbour who will transform his property to a party house on rent,  that will make life hell ?.... use the golden rule in Thailand that goes for ladies as well....never buy....rent first.....you will not be stuck with something unpleasent you did not expect before purchase.... Good luck nevertheless.

But...But; the only reason they join is to get on the same Gravy Train !

More of a Gravy Plane if you ask me...so fast they get it done !!

Cannot help with the door, but consider a CCTV web connected network, Dissuasive and you will be able to keep a constant eye on the place. Put the cameras all inside the place and something discreet but visible at the entrance.

But it may be another story when the guests travel back home and transit through Swampy, amongst a group of sneezing Chinese ... ????

Don't they have to get back to their jobs ? Do they have the required financial means ? Are they polite and nice and say sorry or "solly" when they push you to reach the breakfast buffet or to exit the SkyTrain ? And mainly, have they purchased the regulation approved overcharged health Thai falang health insurance ?

Koreans, japanese and Chinese are targetted suckers and scapegoats, as they pay inflated rates with no idea of the local tarifs and customs. They inflate the whole hooker personnal tourist guide and entertainement scene....not to mention that this fellow could have been deeply infected with Corona...that is to many Corona beers back at the culb before....

Very good. Partially US funded Police Academy ?

Was unaware that the Thai Police was for sale...for a petty 2.7 m US$  ? ????...in that case, can I also make a bribe donation and get a lifelong "free Police-roadblock/farang-checkpoint pass" ?

Do not mean to spoil the party, but will they give the cadets courses on how not to be corrupt and how to tackle and report their corrupt counterparts, if any  ?

Agree with my fellow posters that he should get life with no parole or...the gallows.

Not only did he destroy the family of the victim, such madness in the news has spread worldwide and  will further doom Thailand's declining tourist industry,  that generates jobs and revenue for many. Thus, on a large scope, this madman has caused very much indirect damage on a large scale. Consequently, he deserves the ultimate sentence. Case closed.

Ladies like it because it's cool....that is, it has a good airflow for all the areas covered...????

With all the jealousy and the passion shootings involved, I definately would re consider wanting a relationship with a married or formally married Thai lady. Naturally there are exceptions...but life is to short to find them out !....don't buy....rent ! ????

Subs for the Navy?

 

Or rocket shuttles to go to the moon,  for the hi-so ?

On dealing with women, (provided there is no financial interest involved of course), Freud said that after a lifelong in studying them....what the f*c*** do they want utimately ?  ????

Thai women are perhaps no different then western women when it comes to live it on the red side, you know it happens monthly !!

It's more a matter of education and social well being.

An educated Thai lady, financially independant, socially satisfied,  tuned to modern patterns of life, (obviously the one that is never in the favorite girlie bar), would be more open and look rather if the guy makes her mental boat rock, rather then to stimulate her bank account or if the guy is Thai or not.

Just as any other lady anyplace in the world would. ????. IMHO of course....

political religious hater seems to be the go Detective. 

If you say so...

Surely Tesla will arrive with new factories in Thailand as the saver and may offer new positions for the laid off....hope something works out for them.

It ain't new. I have been asked for boarding pass for years. As I stated earlier not just Thailand but also Vietnam. The latter more often. Swampy very less often but have been asked. I fly every other week. Over this thread now.

IO CAN ask for boarding pass for incoming flight and often do. And have done for sometime. Nothing new here. Hells bells

Never have been asked since the last 10 years at least at Swampy. But maybe you should try the VIP fast track at Swampy...no such requirements....until now perhaps?
