DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A ISP IN CHANTHABURI THAT IS AVAILABLE FOR 7/24 SERVICE AT A REASONABLE PRICE????????????

Thank You Tim, I was just looking for "a" place where the farang's may hang out once a week or so, I am pretty much a grocery store drinker and there's plenty out my way. Close to AmWay

Jim

That is what I thought you meant but wasn't sure. I have not seen farang congregate anywhere but as I said, I don't go out drinking so there could be a small group getting together somewhere.

You have mentioned AmWay a couple of times but I have never noticed it. Could be I just don't go by that area much. The only part of Sukhumvit I travel much is between the junction with 317 and the first turn off into town after Makro. Where is AmWay?

Any one know of any farang pubs/bars in the Chanthaburi area, feel free to PM me

I'm not sure what you are looking for. I can think of a Thai style massge parlor and an area with karaoke bars, some clubs and a disco. Never been in any of the mentioned as I don't drink much so I can't give specifics other than location and view from driving past. There is one location with a couple of bars that from the outside look like they might be discos or gogo type bars. If you are looking for a place where farang congregate I have no idea. One of the things I love about Chan is that it isn't swamped with farang. If you want locations of any of the above, let me know.

Need to go too Chanthaburi, anyone know if highway 3 from Sakaew is open for general traffic????

The highways are open but you wont be able to get into downtown chanthaburi. While the water is starting to recede, it's still severally flooded in most parts of chanthaburi. I would advice you to stay away from Chanthaburi until perhaps monday or tuesday.

anyone have any hotel reccos for the border town of Aranyaprethet (opposite Poipet, Cambodia)? I will not be crossing over into Cambo but staying on the Thai side. Any small clean bungalow or resort will do (a pool would be nice and it gets ###### hot and dusty over there).

Thanks

Look's like this is the exact reason they are changing the visa rules. Dummies like this make us all look bad. Ten to One he has no work permit/visa ....To be unaware of the law is no excuse...................

Hi

Is the coup likely to cause the Baht to depreciate, at least initially?

Is there going to be a good time in the next few days for us to start buying Baht?

Any ideas?

Great convert site. Thank You

Anybody know where I can rent a motorbike in chantaburi? I thought about buying one but due to family politics I would prefer to rent. I spend about 3 months per year in Chantaburi so I want my own wheels instead of using the family bike and having to be back at certain times to run family errands like picking kids up at school.

Tim for your rental you can get a cycle at several locations at Chao Lao beach which is only 15 min. from Chantaburi or you may try (039) 321 354) which is located on Sukhumvit Rd. across from the Amway dealership.

Let me know how you make out with the rental and I will be back in Chantaburi next week and try to help ya out. (Jim-----Aranyaprathet/Chantaburi)[email protected]

Cambodia anybody??? Looks good to me...?

Just don't walk off the road or you may discover Cambodia's meaning of boom.

I have lived in Thailand for 3 years and after checking the law's prior to coming I arrived with a retirement visa and have had no problems at all ....If such as you start yelling about leaving "go,go,go" just obey the law and you also will have NO PROBLEMS

I have had luck in the past by contacting the U.S. Embassy for information if they have him on record they will notify him of your mobil or email address but will not give you the info . Another way is to contact the Thai immagration office they have been very helpful in the past also.........Good Luck

Do not live in Sakaew , but do live very close in Aranyaprathet or actually about 10k out of town. There are several farang's out this way around 15 or so but I beleive I am the only one with a little blond wife from Seattle. Have a great Thai day.
