Rubbish forecast. When Brexit is finally over, one way or another, the pound will reach around 45 baht by middle of next year, and will continue to strengthen thereafter.

Well if that were true the pound would already be heading back up as brexit WILL be resolved one way or the other .

unfortunately the OP forecast is probably accurate

Some men are desperate and take the first woman that shows any interest , makes no difference if they are involved in the drug trade or hookers something most would never do back home

Sad

I'd like to visit but I'll be d**n if I'll go through the hassles of doing a tm30 just to pay double to enter a park

looks like you're stuck in you're village for the rest of you're natural life

Even Hooters on beach rd is dead. The Song teaws are empty

If business is great then why bars, restaurants and shops are closing down?

Everyone i meet is complaining about slow business. Only you dare to distract the reality. 

Just calling out your silly math. The corner bar at the intersection buhakow and lengee low season kills your math without staff!

Just got back from there.

Keep it real

Yes true some places still busy but that’s just their own local staff.[emoji2]
Remove all the workers from all the bars in soi Bukaw and maybe there are 100 farang customers dividend over 200 bars..if you don’t believe me then go ask any bar owner in Bukaw how is his business ?

Yes

A few weeks back I went into the Paradise Agogo in LKM in Pattaya.. There were three falangs in there including myself and the falang manager.
 
As soon as I sat down two girls sat either side of me and immediately requested a drink each. No 'whats your name, where you come from' business.
 
I laughed at their nerve out of surprise rather than mirth, drank up, check binned and left. This is not the typical experience in Pattaya's GGBs. But neither is it exactly totally uncommon.
 
The strong baht and visa regulations will see more of this attitude and eventually fewer punters and more unemployment and poverty among the locals. Bars were closing down all over the place then in early July. It will only get worse.

The average foreigner here makes twice what an average Thai makes if it isnt more.

 

Not in Bangkok. my ex on 87k a month and GF before that was a ffutures trader , don't know what she earnt but driving a new beemer. 30k is the lower end for middle class Thais and even sukhumvit stall holders selling fake garbage at 500 % mark up are minimum 30k

Every car on sukhimvit is late model with countless 200k Mercedes

The day of the big bwana  with his powerful currencies and big pension is looooong gone and are now in the position of being overtaken financially by the natives in a second world country, at least in Bangkok

This will always happen as long as you live in an area surrounded by thais . move to an expat area ! Also if you leave early you will lose your deposit

he will definately get a fine for not reporting the TM30 within 24 hours, so the OP should definately go and report him.

it aint going to make matters any worse

tm30 must be lodged by either the owner or the tenants if the owner is not available. OP Will get fined.Also if the op tries to not pay rent the owner will cut the electric and water TIT

Potential misinformation to save face. 

 

Tomorrow, 3 other ministries will claim exports shrunk. 

 

Can't trust anything from these people. 

What figures do you come up with?

Don't known about more tourists but the 2 week millionaire's looking to party will probably spend more and stay until close

Why would any sane human take on a relationship and play daddy to a kid of a convicted drug dealer in LOS? upset that kid and it gets back to his real dad you could be in a world of pain.Mother charged as well because she was in on it, of course she knew and hero farang fresh on the scene inserts himself right in the middle.. insane!

A true 3rd world dump with zero safety standards

They wouldn't have got proper treatment in a Cambodian hospital either and wasted critical time getting to Bangkok

Sad sad news

 ok was looking at your pic of the girl in bra and panties and thought its probably a Young guy trying to impress. Good luck with it

Google on line courses so you can start straight away. I wouldn't bother if your going to hang in tourist hot spots only its wasted money believe me if you can't practice it like you would in a village you will lose interest and you won't impress the girls in pattaya  with fractured Thai thats for sure

Of course. Thailand is broke and needs the money. Most just go to 7 before midnight and stock up

You can't put a price on this level of entertainment lol

 
Maybe install some trashcans? Whole Bangkok is littered because they removed trashcans...
Also sure, could ban tobacco and cigaretts, vaping doesn't produce this kind of waste nor is the second hand smoke dangerous for others, nor does it make u smell.
 
But it's all about the moneeey

Completed TM30.
Copy of passport photo page.

Date the TM30 the same day as posting.
Send EMS, with a pre paid EMS return envelope for the receipt.

I've been doing it myself for the last 6 year and recently registered for the online reporting.
