Agree - the tap & go on with the card is very efficient.But there will still be people taking out their wallet only after they’ve been told the amount.
The same characters are slow with cash too….….. perhaps even slower with promptpay.
We have a friend and she's having none of it, she's got money and plenty of it, she likes to travel quite a bit, China and Japan she always come to my wife to do the booking online and pay my wife cash,
Next week she's going to Turkey,

I used to always tip but these days my wife pays for everything with the phone, we were talking about it last week when we went for a meal, if we added a tip to the bill do the staff get it? I had 40 baht in my pocket so I left that on the table make sure they got a tip,
My daughter back in the UK has 4 Kebab and Pizza take always she said to me they get hardly any cash these days, she has her own delivery riders

Back fifteen years, my foster son came back from school and said his English teacher said you pronounced giraffe, giraffee because it has an e on the end. When he politely said it's giraffe she told him not to argue with her. He came second in a National English speaking contest and even now is called upon by his Thai international company to do their presentations for them. Perhaps his teacher should have listened to him. Until the Thai education system is elevated from marching, haircuts and dictatorial teaching, and encourages imaginative and lateral thinking, not much will change. But then it's not my country.
I remember some years ago a friend of ours asking could she come around with her daughter because she had been given some English home work from a Thai teacher, her own father was no good he was Dutch and didn't speak good English, The homework you could tell it had not been written by a English speaker, I cant remember exactly what was written but none of it made sense, I did my best for her and explained to her that these questions are not right and we wouldn't ask the question like that, Another problem was the daughters English was also not good.

Owner (not Thai) has a number of Kata properties for rent. With a 5 bedroom he can only get large groups paying premium day rate. I would guess there is a huge deposit.
If on Airbnb lets hope he has a huge cleaning fee

Lists on AirBB at 42,000 Baht a DAY at this time of the year. 5 bedroom on 3 floors plus a roof garden. Think it's 6 young lads that rented it for a week.
Looks like they trashed the place also, wonder where the owner is? Personally I would never had rented it to 5 guys asking for trouble,

This is history not news,
There was a member on here the other week being sued by a guest for leaving a bad review, I wonder what happened there,

These guys should not be fined. A proper punishment would be withdrawal of the taxi license and 3 month in jail.
It happened to one a few weeks ago a 6 month ban plus a fine here in Phuket

Most of the ones I have met over the last couple of years are not in Russia, come from all sorts of places, They cannot use Airbnb or Booking from Russia, quite a few live in Turkey I met a couple they said they live in Uzbekistan they still had Russian passports,
Must be a fair amount that have left Russia for other parts of the world, Bali has it's fair share,
