Jewish privilege is off the rails.

No one goes to Pattaya for a luxury experiences. Thailand tourism authorities have lost the plot.

It's happening and ain't nothing Thailand can do about it... Better food, safer/fewer idiot tourist thumbing there nose at the rule of law (thanks to strict communist rule), and prettier ladies. Game, set, match.

Here is a novel idea... Just don't steal. Ffs. Tourist 🙄

He won't be the last old timer to be left with nothing after coming to Thailand looking for love in all the wrong places. Seems once guys hit 70+ years it's time for their Thai girls to take what they have and send daddy packing. Buyer beware.

same as it ever was... The only things that change are the punters who go there, and the girls who work there

True drama queens. The attention begets more attention getting activities. The more you report this, the more they will give you something to report.

Decline? Or just not enough of an increase? Thailand loves to whine about the need to increase over tourism 🤮

😂 If you can't spot one without asking, you are in the wrong park 😂

Uncalled for destruction. Dispute or not. Hope they find the Ukie and make her suffer.

Thailand can't figure out what boot to lick... Cheap Charlie's or the rich and shameless. Are all those quality hi-so tourist really complaining about a couple hundred baht

Send him and all his kind packing.

Good. Don't come. Mass tourism sucks. Go wherever it is you think is better. The only legit complaint is higher prices, really. But that's happening everywhere (to one degree or another). And if you can't figure out entry requirements (visas, VOA, VER) and entry forms (TDAC), maybe you shouldn't travel. Everything else in this article is just the same recycled blather... Duel pricing, cleanliness (which Thailand never was nor will be), infrastructure (which has always been substandard by western stds.), and fear of cannabis (which is just boomers and their reefer madness nonsense).

It's not hard to get a thai phone number (SIM) in your name, and to them open a bank account (in your name) using your thai number for mobile banking... remain calm.

It was Thai aviation air safety that was upgraded... FAA announced upgrade of Thailand's aviation rating to Category 1.

THAI used to fly a non stop to LA. I could see that returning now that the FAA has upgraded Thailand's airport

exactly

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration on Wednesday upgraded Thailand's air safety rating to "Category 1" a decade after a downgrade, paving the way for direct U.S.-Thailand flights to resume... this is all part of the agreement.

Here is a controversial idea... make missed 90 reporting an offense on par with overstay, then make presenting the TM47 receipt AND passport mandatory (pdf and photos acceptable) for all sorts of mundane reasons (checking into a hotel, requesting bank services, obtaining a SIM card, booking tickets, boarding planes/trains/ferries, etc.) -- no more using Thai DL... watch the number of overstays decrease significantly.

Good, if it works for all (including foreigners). Sadly, Thailand and technology have typically had a rocky relationship. I for one have done 2 renewals and never taken a written test (just the physical test, and watched videos). But would welcome not having to go to DLT at all.

And that's on the people who hire them... So, take a good look in the mirror, Thailand. It's not a VER problem, it's a Thai employer problem.

Applaud the sentiment but it's not going to fix anything. Unless of course they eliminate VER (visa exempt rules) entirely (which is a bridge too far; will never get there). Cuz people will just overstay the visa they do get... Overstayers, overstay, it's what they do. Could try electronic ankle bracelets 😂

Toss this clown out already... Thinks he's above it all.

Never was a more deserving beat down ever given. As they say... play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Wow. Over emails 😂 honestly, I'm just glad he's no longer in Thailand #dolt #unhinged
