    They don't seem to realise that in most countries. Six months is the limit for tourist.

    “Most” it’s a fairly accurate statement. All of the options 

    have trade offs it really depends what works for you. Article attached talks about Cambodia visas and tightening down 2019.

    States Retirement visas are favorable. 

     

    Been to Cambodia a couple of times. Son and family (Cambodian wife) live in Phnom Penh she and her family own several

    successful restaurants PP and Siam Reap so difficult to make

    a fair assessment of all of Cambodia.

     

    I live in the Thailand NE Countryside and I like it 

    air quality is ok and at my age I think the clock will

    run out before air quality does me in.

  2. My opinion is many APAC countries citizen don’t realize the importance of proper trash disposal. Many Americans didn’t 

    know the importance.

     

    Teach children at a young age not to litter. There’s always the second option that’s effective....

     

    For example, in California the punishment for first-time littering starts at a $100 fine and eight hours of picking up roadside litter. A defendant's third offense and all subsequent offenses are punished with a minimum penalty of a $750 fine and 24 hours of litter cleanup (per offense).

    Because I can’t speak thai and somchai doesn’t understand English, he have never been friendly, always angry looking face

    See it’s an opportunity to break ice. Do sign language showing why pour the beer on the dogs give to me .... might get a chuckle and break the ice.

     

    you won’t have a long conversation but he’s sees your friendly and you see he’s friendly. 

     

    We bought a house in the US I was 45 years old. Most neighbors didn’t talk to each other. When the weather was nice as days were

    I’d walk around the neighborhood both side of the street say or wave and eventually stop and small talk. 

     

    My said why all all these people in the neighborhood know you. I walk around the neighborhood say hello and see what’s going on. 

    A lot of California people didn’t care to know their neighbors. I was 

    Southern raised Mama Georgia and Papa Alabama ( I was born in Miami). 

     

    Break the ice see if it helps wont cost you anything...

  4. How best would radiant barrier film work on my house or suggestions. See picture 

     

    at the bas if the roof/ceiling or under the roof itself., looking for a cost effective and something relatively easy to install.

    most of the safes you would buy for home use are not 'safe', a tour on you tube will show why

    That is a very true statement..... I had a safe that looked and felt rugged enough better than the hotel type. The lock function is a 

    set of batteries inside the safe if the batteries fail you can unlock 

    with a key you keep separately by taking of the center cap on lock.

     

    Batteries stopped working and didn’t know where the key was. Looked at he manufactures website to see if any information on 

    how to open. Nothing

     

    Youtube I gave basic information of type and searched. Two videos

    the second sounded corny and didn’t think it would work. Involved 

    hitting the on top about the area of lock below...

     

    ok tried it ..hit the top of safe with bottom of my hand.... it worked 

    it took like 3 minutes

  6. Blacklist them before they enter.....The Land of Smiles.

     

    It’s seems to be becoming a rash. .... sure there are some people

    that legitimately need help. If your on a trip even low budget be prepared if something goes sideways. 

     

    I’ve seen it here in the NE but I’m sure it runs rapid in BKK.

     

    When I was lived in the US I do t mind helping if someone is in trouble maybe have kids ...I will give something if I have it.

     

    If im on the border if are they sincere or a scam. I would say I

    will buy them something to eat at a place within within a short 

    walk. Many of them no want cash... bye bye 

  7. I had a pick up live in the NE in village. Not a lot of differne from 

    a car depends what you like and will it suit what you and the family will use to for. 

     

    One super plus if your going into town on a trip. Many times a 

    group of 6-8 like to have mini family meets and in the truck bed

    Gives them privacy... good time management take care of things while in route. 

     

    When their back there its super private and in the front I can’t hear anything...

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  8. There is a thread on Thai visa about a person you helped a Thai wife or girlfriend when her husband or boyfriend died. This was a

    US citizen.

     

    The OP posted the process of what had to be prepared to help others to prepare. I think if search death instructions of forum

    search it comes up. 

  9. In China me an a friend would sit out on his porch drinking beers

    while the wi es cooked. Almost everyday an accident with motos.

    Most were put on for money targeting cars with black plates that 

    meant foreigner.  They changed now to all blue.

     

    The coos caught on a we saw a cop go over to a guy. Ike down laying in the street. The the cop slapped him in the head and off they guy went... looking for easy money

    By the time a ruling is finalised he will be living on Mars by then

    I thought he was already......serious for a brilliant guy he should have not blown his fuse. It’s tried in California?

     

    ... maybe they can have him do about 1 year hard labor in a Thai prison....and pay up. Hope Unsworth gets a boat load of money and enjoy life to its fullest or is it Foolist for Musk...
