    I was at the new terminal at Suvarnabhumi last week. There are at least 2 new smoking rooms and the Hard Rock rooftop bar where you can have a smoke while enjoying a beer. Well done Thailand, common sense is coming back

    I have been retired in Thailand for 8 years and just returned from holiday in Laos today i leave Thailand 3 - 4 times per year on short holidays, would they expect me to pay "tourist" medical insurance every time i come back?

    I don't think it's got anything to do with backpackers. It's about being a decent human being. Have the Thais forgotten about Farang businesses in Thailand donating free meals to hungry Thais during covid and the many millions of baht which were raised by farangs in Thailand to help the needy?

    If they did that to my child i would give them something a bit more serious than a pierced lip. Imbeciles

    I have been in Thailand for 8 years and am registered to vote. In the 2019 election i received my ballot paper on the day of the election, too late to send back. When i contacted them to complain they said they are only allowed to send out the ballot papers 10 days before the election. Unless they change this rule you still can't vote.

    It's already happened, in April Barclays informed me i had till August 30th to take my balances to zero and close my accounts which i obviously did. A nice thank you from Barclays after 35 years of banking with them

    My wife worked from age 20 till she was made redundant in 2021 aged 51 due to covid. She was on a decent salary for 20 years and then an excellent salary for the next 11 years as branch manager for a Japanese company at Laem Chabang. She will receive her Thai state pension in 2 years time, a total of 4,000 baht per month for 31 years continuous work, pathetic

    I live on route 36 just outside Pattaya, 7 nights a week the motorbike racing starts at around 8pm and continues into the early hours. Route 36 is a major road, but the cops don't know it's happening????

    forget about voting in a UK election if you live in Thailand. I registered for a postal vote in the last election, my ballot paper arrived at my Thai address on the actual day of the election. I phoned the relevant number in the UK to complain and they told me they can't send out ballot papers to overseas addresses till 10 days before the election. So unless an envelope can get from UK - Thailand - UK in 10 days you've got no chance

    Never been found guilty of ball tampering though, pretty bad when Australian cricket kit includes a strip of sandpaper

    Your #3 is complaining farang, you actually said that while complaining, that's funny

    At least Thailand is catching up to the west in one respect where free speech is banned
