    Yinn, I know many Thais want to leave Thailand and live and work in a western country, like my home country Norway. Why? I will tell you why: 10 times more salary (at least), no corruption (compared to Thailand), freedom of speach, true democracy, a welfare and health-system Thailand can only dream about, a functioning justice-system, no dual pricing, a pension-system. True, pussy is way more expensive in Norway than in Thailand.

    I not have any friend want to go Norway.

     

    cold and expansive. How much for steam rice at the restaurant.

     

    if so good, why you live here?

    Why should a Doctor or dentist who gets paid more than me pay half the price i have to pay? Unemployed or low income ppl i agree but not the wealthy.

    Yes, I think that good idea. I think same. 

    I don’t care if poor people pay less than me. Good for them to go. If to expansive they can not go.

     

    But difficult to know that if poor person or rich person. The system now, easy to know if thai or foreign.

    Many of us hope it IS too late. 

     

    And, it's lovely to see them grovelling.

     

    Thailand has earned any bad fortune in its foreign tourism sector.

     

    What other countries' ministries need to constantly tell its citizens things like:

    1. "No more taking advantage of tourists"

    2. "No more dual pricing and over charging of tourists"

    3. "Our police love all tourists -- Thai and even foreign tourists"

     

    Come on. Why would any foreigner feel sorry for these people? It's crazy.

    Of course not, you’re Thai. Wouldn’t expect you to look past your own nose to show concern for someone else. Thais wouldn’t give a toss about something unless it concerns their own pocket. Obviously the only reason this is even in the news is because tourism is tanking.

     

    Typical Thai logic. How about the guys on here who’ve lived here for decades? Are they not “local” enough for you?

    I agree it is. I also think tourists should be charged more, that is part of a holiday.

     

    What really makes me annoyed is the fact that each year I pay around 156,000b / year in tax to the Thai economy and I am never allowed to enter places at a reduced rate. Sometimes it is 6 - 8 times the price what is scandalous for someone who actually lives here full time.

    If you show the driving liscence and ask in thai, most time will get a discount.

    Was sad to see no Sprite anywhere when I came here years ago. But today I saw them in cans and bottles in the local Family Mart. They even have a 0 cal version!

    Wrong. Thailand has it. Many years. And Coke also! 

     

    You can buy it at KFC.

    I hung in for nearly 20 years. Now I’ve sold a bit more than half of my assets here and trying to get rid of the rest. It just doesn’t make sense to stay here anymore, especially when there are other options out there.

     

    Thailand used to be easy. That was the attraction. It doesn’t matter how much you contribute here, you’re either Thai or you’re just tolerated until they decide it’s time for you to go. That’s no way to live out the rest of your days.

     I hope you sell the rest. Try Kaidee. 

    Dont waste your life here. Go quickly. 

     

    “They” have decide it is time you go?

     

    20 years, many friends right?, big party when you go? Or not?

     

    Where you go?

     

    Good luck.

    Too busy taking photos,  extoring money, pointing fingers, eating and shouting at each other!

     

    Children are dieing and they seem to careless. Face and ego trips seem more important than life and children.

     

    Disgusting.

     

    And they call this Paradise!

    Forget something?

    Don't worry, be happy. Life is cheap, down here in the land of smiling low IQ idiots. 

    Highest in road fatalities. Highest in child swimming fatalities. Highest in every criterion that demonstrates a total lack of humanity.

    Highest in mass shooting? Highest in dropping bomb on other countries? Highest in invading countries with weapons? Highest in killing woman and kid in Syria, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Iraq? 

     

    Or not?
