Normally you have a tank for water. We have 2 tanks by 20.000 litres. So if there's no water for some days it doesn't matter.

we have a deep well and a tank

Where in Phuket.  We still have water in Chalong.....for how long?  

Rawai along Saiyuan, we are ok because we have the well,

We are needing some in Phuket we are ok one of the first things i did was dig a well, both my neighbours are relying on city water, it's been off for 3 or 4 days, they are having to buy water, 

Petty cash to a hospital that is 

If and when you find something have a drive around at night to see if you can hear any noise, check that site https://www.bahtsold.com/ 

Try and deal direct with the owner, them agents want 10% on rental properties, 

Im amazed they have never targeted other areas of Thailand, especially the tourist areas,

Abandoned...Really...Weird how the video is cut (on purpose?) not showing what actually happens next . Out of context. ps : the car did not make a brutal turn , rather smooth actually. Guess the motorcycle rider was on the phone while driving with no care at all as often here?

I live nearby there and where he is turning is not a soi it's dirt track down to a resort, if there was something coming up which we dont see on the video maybe caused the driver to stop at that point, he wasn't indicating I would have thought the rider on the bike would have seen him across the road,

But,

 

it's their government giving Chinese visa-free and Russians 90 days visas etc

 

I mean Phuket from my understanding is becoming a Russian enclave all encouraged by the Thai government.

 

They talk about over-tourism, and as soon as it dips, they are pulling all kinds of rabbits out of the hat to get it back up.

 

What do they want?

More Russians

Reading the comments on Twitter. "Phuket is basically the land of foreigners." 830 likes and goes on to explain how they're working and taking jobs, Thai's are only the hired help. (yeah that's the law dude!).

 

 

Then this non-Thai women gets 550 likes with "remember my words, good Farang rarely exist in Thailand".  

 

 

It's goes on and on. Thai's are getting pissed in Phuket with mass tourism and I don't blame them honestly.

 

Do you live in Phuket?

It happens in other hospitals, they died so that hospital doesn't want dead bodies on it's record 

It was in Bangkok, apparently this was 2 years ago, she never went to the hospital for 2 months, 

Never a problem with our Comrade's good for business,

The raids usually take place just before payday so the employer saves on wages. An (anonymous) phone call is all it takes.

They have been doing that for years down here in Phuket

Dogs can always tell a snake when they see one, 

Can Thailand deport them back to a war zone?

Look at Phuket, now a russian colony. Sharp increase in criminal cases. Bad behavior in public, illegal working, prostitution etc.

Do you live here in Phuket

Aren't most Russians that come to Thailand couples? They fill up the 29sqm condo, spend a little money(x2), and keep very quiet. 

Really? Russians are renting my 57sqm apartments right now, and there is about 200 apartments in the project and it's mostly Russians,

No country wants them. Law breakers, rude, abusive, what more you want?

Not exactly true,

Headline is a bit misleading, in that for 3 months during low season, Russian tourists will be able to enter Thailand visa free for a period of 60 days. They are currently permitted to enter visa free for a period of 90 days.

Read the article, the 90 day ends at the end of this month
