Gaming - I doubt that Thai students need any help, or instruction about that...

If they wait long enough, they can have the talks with Beijing, as China has already gobbled up 1/8 of Bhutan's territory in recent years.

And yet, she didn't spot that the investment scheme was fake...

Vietnam too, even though it is still ruled by a communist party. Yes, it is ironic, but against China's hegemony all should stand together, and Vietnam is China's antagonist.

Why? Finally, Thailand is #1! 😊 From the bottom that is, but still... 😙

Bizarre! I imagine, they'd lower all flags for at least a month if chairman Xi died, but that wouldn't be a surprise. But Iran??

And the rich and powerful can always send their kids overseas for education...

Thailand and Thais have more money now than 18 years ago. Time for Thailand's favourite politician to help himself again...

I'm sure, Thailand will soon come up with their own PISA assessment system, where nationalism, being obedient and knowing your place in society, as well as being good at "soft skills", kowtowing in the right and beautiful way, and Thai dancing will be the primary parameters, allowing Thai students to easily score 99.5 percent... After all, they also created their own national IQ scores.

Srettha to be suspended, Thaksin officially taking charge... Not even the worst Hollywood script with the most predictable storyline can top that.

Well, if you're employed in Thailand...

Look at him! If they ever made 'Godfather IV', it would have to be in Thailand with him in the title role. 😆

I never understood that. 'Move' to Thailand as a single guy, okay. But as a couple, or family? - Why?? Why not 'move' with the family to Spain, Hawaii, or the Bahamas? Aren't these more suitable places for a family?

No, they were f***ing 'little ghosts'...

Yes, and they would never work as prostitutes. After all, there is "no prostitution" in their home country either...

That's right. So, what is the extra hour for? Queuing up at the check-in counter?

Add delayed flights, and it's almost half a day...

That's right. But all you see in clips on YouTube, FB, etc., is singles (e.g. backpackers, retirees) raving about how 'cheap' accommodation and (street) food are. What people who watch this, impulsively deciding to 'move to Thailand' forget, is that life is more than budgeting for two weeks in a 'cheap' destination, esp. if you have kids. I wouldn't be surprised if half of those people didn't have much of a clue about visas.

Uncle Tu, uncle Taks, uncle Srettha, auntie Yingluck...

Those people (and their colleagues in other government departments) should have a big dinner party, enjoying all that rice...

Most of the towns in those 'second-tier provinces' look the same to me. Okay, there is one, or the other national park, waterfall, or 'different' temple, but for individual travellers, going there is too troublesome (not to mention the highly inflated prices for foreign tourists in regards to sights, local transportation, etc.) And I doubt that Chinese bus tourists would enjoy such long journeys. When I travel to/in Thailand, I want to see beaches, not recently built Wats in Nakhon Nowhere, 500km inland...

So, you're renting a new apartment back home (for only 6 months) every time, or are you paying for two apartments while in Thailand? Would never work in my home country, as it is close to impossible nowadays to find apartments for rent in the big cities.

Thailand - The Hub for the Oldest Rice in the World (You're welcome, TAT... 😆)

Glad to hear that he got a work permit for this kind of work.

Not the same. Correct me, if I'm wrong, but New Zealanders can work (in any job) in Australia. And there are many vacancies (with higher salaries) there, and living costs are, in fact, lower. (Esp. if you come from a small town, where the only local supermarket is a Four Square. - NZ milk and other dairy products are actually way cheaper in China than they are in New Zealand.)
