I've only been looking in 2A and I am only seeing 37sqm for 10k right now. I think most of those want a 1 year commitment as well. You must be talking about 5C/D for 48sqm. A quick google search shows them going for 15k right now. Again, that is assuming a 1 year commitment.

Rose colored glasses or trying to put lipstick on a pig? About those baht buses. Going over the hill a few times a week and sitting in the perpetual traffic jam near walking street gets old REAL fast. On a short stay it's ok but for anything longer you will definitely want to get a scooter. Foodmart only gets you so far grocery wise. There are not nearly as many restaurants around and things to do as there is in Pattaya. No aircon malls around to hide out from the mid day heat. The bus station is only used once when you arrive and leave. Easy enough to bolt there from Pattaya. There are a couple much nicer places near Nurun. Maxx City Condotel and LK Legend. I think they cater more to vacation rentals though. Not long term leases and sales. http://www.maxxcity.com/en/index.php https://www.lkpattaya.com/legend/?lg=0

If you think VT2 is bad you'll love Nurun. It makes VT2 look like a 5 star resort. One thing that makes Nurun better is that there is lots of stuff around within walking distance, including Big C Extra and Foodland, so not as isolated as VT2.

I just went out there today to have a look. Even on a motorbike it was a bit of a ride and part of the road is dirt, so I was inhaling dust being kicked up by cars. Not fun. The best part is that it's surrounded by a patchwork of big empty fields interspersed with other new developments, so you would have many years of noisy development going on all around you to look forward to if you lived there.

I know some people who live there. I wasn't impressed with the dirty-looking hallways. Also, the elevator is weird because it's halfway between floors.

Thai government cuts local alcohol tax to zero to boost tourism and economy
shdmn replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
To all the whiners here claiming retailers will just pocket the difference. You will all be proven wrong as usual. I guarantee you the big retailers like 7/11 and Big C will not do that because they don't need to. If the mom and pops don't follow suit nobody will buy from them. -

It's most expats favorite passtime. -
Biden saved from embarrassment, well, more if continued
shdmn replied to KhunLA's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
Is there any way to hide these toxic political threads from showing up in my recent content list? I don't come to this site to read this garbage. Also, I wish the people running this site would get tougher on all the obvious trolling going on. It's making this whole forum turn into a waste of time. Seems to be very little useful info these days. -
Who could have predicted Toxsin would basically spend zero time in prison. By all accounts he was just put in some five star executive hospital prison. Probably had his own wing. And Thailand wonders why they can't seem to get rid of their corruption problem. It's because it's coming from the top down.

Is re-entry allowed for Visa-exempt stamp?
shdmn replied to David Resnick's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I plan to use bestonwardticket.com for my next trip in case the airline checks. My plan B is to buy a 100% real ticket off expedia.com if they don't accept the bestonwardticket one. Apparently you can cancel expedia tickets within 24 hours. -
I thought nobody wanted to come back to Thailand because reasons? That is what the serial whiners around here were saying and they are never wrong. They will probably now try say that these numbers are fake without presenting any evidence whatsoever. I guess those huge lines at immigration and at the airport were just my imagination.

Thailand just chose a prime minister. He’s not the one people voted for

Talk of a 3 month visa waiver on arrival is music to my ears. Still far from certain but keeping my fingers crossed. -

TV/AN forum must have the BIGGEST group of whiners on the planet. Nothing but shameful incessant whining about anything and everything. -

I only have one question about the new guy. What is his stance on recreational marijuana legalization? -
Strongest sleeping pills available without prescription?
shdmn replied to BillStrangeOgre's topic in Health and Medicine
Sleeping pills that use diphenhydramine (an antihistamine) are the strongest over the counter as far as I know. -
Public advised to protect themselves as COVID-19 cases surge
shdmn replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I'm at 5 with the last one being the bivalent one in combination with a flu shot. Probably due for another one soon but I am not sure if it's still free for me. Maybe only once a year. They have the pills now that can save most people if taken in the first 3 days after getting infected. -
Cannabis shops near schools allowed amid lack of specific law
shdmn replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I see the new gov't coalition wants to try make cannabis illegal again. I hope that's more bark than bite. -

Where can I find those marijuana leaf hawaiian shirts?
shdmn replied to shdmn's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
I found shirts with the exact pattern I am looking for at the night market in Jomtien and at a store in Royal Garden Plaza mall in Pattaya. Unfortunately, I haven't found one with the right color scheme just yet. -
Court Accepts Cannabis Lawsuit Against Anutin, ONCB

There may even be a few 'random' accidents involving motorcycle drivers wearing dark visor helmets in the days and weeks to come.
