Wongkitlo

I dont believe operators want Thai customers. They complain, spend little money, and give bad reviews. Booking.com etc computer applications will not allow it technically. Government has been wasting money on 'We travel together' schemes which benefit rich Chinrse owners with large hotels while small ones do not qualify. why are they stoopping the schemes and switching to this.

I caught Phetsapert bus a few years ago and had the hostess seving. Was great.

You seem to worry about this. I am pretty convinced that ripping up the park must affect sales but you think otherwise. Where would all the people who used to sit in the park go to eat their seafood and drink beer? I used to go there often and the park was always crowded with picknickers. I am just sad the entrance trees have been replaced with a car park and there is no grass and trees anymore in Naklua for the kids to play on. I vehemently hope the traders all suffer for their decision to put money ahead of anything else and support the project. If they lose months of business as I hope 'Som nahm nah'.

I catch the Sukumvit Rd songtaew often and some have new price lists. I dont know if official or just an initiative by the drivers. Short trip now 15 baht not 10

And the thing is nobody really cares about whether they take the bus, taxi or limousine. I guess must be a bit bored if complaining about people not taking taxis on a public forum.

Some of us are just not so lucky. No money , no honey.

I have caught the Jomtien bus to the airport. It is very comfortable, quick and easy. Why pay 1000 baht when you are in no hurry to go anywhere? Also, the girls on the bus are prettier than the old, fat taxi driver.

I was at Jomtien last week for a tm30. Arrived just before 11 and walked right up to the desk. There were a few people around but no queue.

If you believe what Trip advisor tells you. I catch the songtaew from there several times each week and have never seen it as quiet as recently. I dont eat fish.

I think Naklua Sauna open but always found it too hot and the girls too unfriendly. Maybe they had a big fire safety quote too and now closed

Tawan sauna on darkside. Government went to Silom Sauna and gave her a big fail for fire safety. Big bill for it after closing for years with covid. They not care.

Looks quiet to me. 6 pm on Wednesday night. I guess they would not throw out yesterday's seafood so if you buy from them how old would it be-2 days, 3 days, 4.

They had a meeting about it with the market traders and they supported it. They could move garbage disposal somewhere else or at least consolidate it. The park is usually full of people eating seafood. Obviously not anymore.

I was with a girl who would not kiss on the lips but had no problems kissing another part of my anatomy. Hard to understand.

Thank you for the advice.

Thanks. Ill try.

Am negotiating with my wife. Can sometimes be slow, difficult and frustrating. As a Thai she knows everything.

I am trying to move some furniture from Pattaya to Trat. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could hire a 3 tonne truck. I have a driver and they will load it at the shops where I buy it. I have approached some companies but their quotes seem rather high. Thanks

Someone just posted about their trip to Savanaket for non o me visa

Thanks for going to the trouble to report

I went today and surprised how quiet the market was. They must be losing lots of customers but deserve it because they voted for the new garage thinking it will increase profits. Now they need to wait months while they redevelop. If the council cared more about business they would do a little at a time. I still do not understand how people will access the park as it just seems cars everywhere. Also not sure why this building is inviolate

Is just the same same as last time. Pattaya keeps electing the same people who keep doing nothing.

It might be helpful. A poster on this forum said an acceptable job for a foreigner is foreign language advertising and social media worker, if you do not have extensive experience in the field you will be working in. I think you need to have a role which can not be carried out by a Thai. Please post after you have applied because nany are interested in work permits

Most dictionaries spell it with no sala which will translate to a short 'a' or 'o' sound but never an 'e'

It is pretty basic programming to make websites google translate friendly and you would find most websites are except Lazada. Is possible to take a screenshot and import it to google translate as an image but it would be easier if their website offered the same functionality as most others. I understand most reviews are in Thai and I could translate it very slowly if I really tried but it would be easier if they just put in a copy and paste function on their website.
