How do you work that out?

The short term rental market in Thailand is huge, It's not just Airbnb, you have Booking.com, Agoda, VRBO, Trip advisor and many more. One big problem with the STR properties is the absentee landlords were many guest do self checkin there is no control over how many guest are checking in, one reason why they turn into parties and places get trashed things get stolen, Some states in America require the host to be living within a certain distance from the property. To ban airbnb altogether is not the answer you would have to ban the whole of the STR business. Many people prefer to rent an airbnb over a hotel I think the figures and results tell you that, You cant beat renting a nice Pool villa with a full kitchen you can go and do all your own shopping for food and drink, Ha s been popular over the years with Russian families especially when they have a couple of kids,

It was true I live near to there, 3 killed and one badly injured

Fighting over women in Thailand, you have to be messing,

It's not on their web site it was sent out as an email which is applicable to members in Thailand, did it say at the bottom, to be filled out in Thai language. something like that

There’s enough room for hotel rooms and short-term rentals to compete side by side. Each offers unique pros and cons that appeal to different segments of the market.

Phuket was in a coma, I reminded some Thais of that the other week, ok we go back to covid when you had nothing, many had to go back to sticky rice land.

You remember that silly scouser up in Chiang Mai? spray painting that wall, didn't he get binged up and big fine

And the Governor is worried about the Farang

I dont know about that, it all went quiet

Which one was that?

It's just a small minority that are behaving badly, most of us respect the law better than Thai people.

Well done to the police

We havnt had a Nigerian for a while, did they stop? or have they all been getting through?

There is guys out there who sell data, the problem is it gets sold a 1000 times

Thailand is banned from the WC, every time they get a corner they want to open a shop

Dont waste your money they have no chance,

There is so many taxi app's here in Phuket, no need to get a taxi,

There is already a shortage of hotel staff, so they need them and Thais dotn want to work in the kitchens or cleaning rooms, A friend of mine has two trendy restaurants he's paying a good daily wage, he cant get staff,

That road is well lit, 4 lanes wide with a dual carriage way plus the hard shoulder, plenty of room for both of them,

They are all over the Burmese like a rash,

I saw 6 the other day going down the tunnel at Chalong

Russian man, 25, dies as motorbike hits house wall PHUKET: A 25-year-old Russian man died when the motorbike he was riding struck a house wall in Baan Don, Tambon Thepkrasattri, last night (Mar 24).

Its the shops who need to not rent them out in the first place, a friend of mine has a load of bikes and cars, No license = No rent

My wife goes to that restaurant a few times a week, we have just been there to pick up some food, the owners live behind and never heard a thing until the orbortor came knocking, next door is a somtam shop and the bikes in the accident ended up in the front of his shop and set the somtam guys bike on fire, One of them leg ended up across the road. The Russian was well known for speeding up and down the road seems they all know who he his. They have cleaned it up you wouldn't know there been such an accident.
