EVENKEEL

So, we ended up at Holiday Ao Nang Resort, they overbooked so upgraded us to a suite with pool view, 4K+ a night. Very, very nice. The buffet breakfast was cool with ocean view. Many nice restaurants, 7-11 close by, beach across street. Drove to Koh Lanta, stayed at Lanta Sands, Klong Dao beach. Having a car was almost necessary there. All in all a great time.

I don't know a thing about bribery. What I do know is my extension was stamped and approved by a legit IO. What my agent does to expediate my extension is not my business.

If I park 800K baht equivalent in a US bank, right now I get 40K Baht interest for the year. Now, who's smarter.

Ahahaaa, Ole Trump's a funny guy.

I've taken the speed boats tp Koh Larn before, doesn't take much chop to make boats feel like they'll tear apart. Spooky. Just came from Krabi where we took a long boat tour day before the rough seas. Put that life jacket on at all times. If something happens, you'll be ready.

The transactional nightmare won't disappear in PI. There, the ladies main objective is to go to a western country and her family will follow.

I feel the same way about listening to Biden speak. I simply can't.

ohhh, sounds yummy

I get what you're talking about. There's nothing wrong with enjoying your home cooked meals at home. If you moved, not so far away you can have a more relaxed feeling and still be near Pattaya for shopping. I'm a good 30 minutes from Pattaya, near the beach, 7-11 and restaurants a 30 sec MB ride away. Thais here couldn't care less about me. And there are many places such as mine near Pattaya. I go to the malls for movies and dining, sometimes a bif bike ride to Soi Bukhao for some beers and back home again.

It's called taking responsibility of your existence. It's not perfect, but still an awesome nation.

I'm from USA, don't think it's so easy there.

I bought one for the kid. Still never used, wickedly dangerous lmo

Those who sold everything at home are now forced to call Thailand home. Very few retirees have the finances to start over in home country. They are the ones bashing their home country.

My same opinion, they don't try to understand unless spoken correctly.

Well, you are a bit of a lower class Georgie,

It's always good fun reading posts from the old farts who were stupid enough to park money in Thailand when a mere 13,000 baht gets my legal extension done for me. Ahahaaaa

Why do you care?

Whatever, keep drinking the Kool aid

Trump jokingly said he'd only be a dictator on his first day.

I was just at Ao Nang 2 days ago. We had beachfront hotel 5 star at top of beach road. Was slow paced, but at bottom end traffic was nuts, lots of tourists

No, it never gets old.

You're merely perpetchuating the very reason Trump will win. Using Nazi namecalling is so old and will backfire.

Offshore guys could swing it. I did a few times.

Many here give the powers that be, wayyyyyyy toooooo much credit. Like coming up with a tax system for all the various type incomes. It'll never work.
