  1. Always an unwise decision to engage in any type of argument or disagreement with Thai men (especially in a group at 4am in a 7-11 after a few drinks - downright stupid).
  2. So they knew it was a problem but decided to wait... might want to get cracking on that plan now.
  3. Thanks convict. Newsflash: Prison is hard. Now pissoff. Prison should suck, and suck harded for drug trafficking. GTFOH. I'm more annoyed she skated early on a 30 yr sentence.
  4. Just another scam in the LoS (Land of Scams). Numerology, superstition, and ghost are all part of the national fabric.
  5. Pity the old guy who thought a 1+ hour ride on the back of a motorbike would the best way to travel.
  6. Ganja has never been, nor will it ever be, difficult to find in Thailand. And this latest flipflop changes nothing for the thousands of Thais who already grow their own (even before decriminalization). This about-face on recreational weed only affects foreigners and people in urban areas who have no Thai friends.
  7. Now all of a sudden the Thai government is worried about mental health. Just end this charade... everyone knows where this is headed... don't need to keep trotting out government hired doctors/experts to support their self-fulfilling prophecies.
  8. Everyone knows the Elite approval process is a joke and easy access for criminals. Takes 3 weeks to get approved.
  9. Check these guys out... 15 and 11 years... https://thethaiger.com/news/national/iraqi-man-arrested-for-overstaying-in-thailand-for-nearly-15-years https://thethaiger.com/guides/visa-information/elderly-british-man-overstays-visa-in-thailand-by-11-years
  10. Like spitting into the wind. Goodluck with that. Who's scientist? It's like an "expert"... there is always another expert who can take the other side of any debate. Time to get your medical marijuana card... https://thai.news/news/thailand/thailands-first-digital-cannabis-card-network
  11. Classic Thai... announcing something before it's finalized as if it's some sort of accomplishment. The only people that benefit from a visa-free EU travel scheme for Thais are Hi-So's and prostitutes (and of course their customers/pimps).
  12. Just to clarify... I was not living up there, just visiting. I live in Bangkok, and no one here looks twice. In high traffic tourist areas, I don't think it would be hard at all to avoid detection for years (without having to be "in hiding"). I seem to recall years ago reading about a 70+ year old farang in Bangkok finally being caught out on 5000+ day overstay.
  13. maybe. it was never explained to me, and i didn't ask. just showed my credentials and he went away.
  14. In my 8 years living here, it only happened to me once... in the very first year... I was in Roi Et. Police came right up me and asked to see my passport. All I was doing was eating ice cream in the shade with my lady friend.
  15. Same can be said for most any country... they know who entered when and where, and have no record of them leaving, but their now in the wind. I'd love to know how many people Thailand believes are still here on overstay (seems like a simple Db query of immigration's system)
  16. And with a verified address - e.g., house book or signed lease (no hotel, AbnB addresses).
  17. Who knows if, when or how this is really going to play out, but one thing is certain... It will be as ham handed as the legalization / decriminalization was handled back in June 2022.
  18. Lite on the details, but whenever you see an announcement like this it's certain to create a fuster-cluck 💯 it's already bad enough today that each bank seems to follow its own set of rules when foreigners request to open an account.
  19. Why wouldn't they arrest anyone operating a dispensary after they become illegal (which appears to be inevitable). Anutin is a nut job. Hating on foreigners at every turn. Some things never change.
  20. comparing dogs to chineses tourist... sounds about right 👍
  21. Social influencer fail 🤣 strangely, all I feel is schadenfreude.
  22. He's just mad he's going to lose his investment capital and the resulting revenue stream... But I suspect the revenue he made in year one more than covered.
  23. Urinating publicly at a place of worship is exactly how I would expect a Chinese tourist to behave.
  24. You are right about one thing... i'm not that old to have been here in the 60's (even as a fetus, LoL). I used to get my weed in CA... and there is nothing like a little Humboldt, Trinity and Mendocino county "Emerald Triangle" dank to soothe the soul. My older brother on the other hand (was here in the 70s) has stories of Thai stick he likes to regal me with. But seriously, if it was only about the weed, I'd have stayed in CA.
