Not that hard to get a ESIM card for such purposes as well. Otherwise you can keep using the same services within Teams. -
Are Thai teens more mature than West
ChaiyaTH replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Most clubs and gogo bars the legal age is actually 20+ besides that what are we even talking about, it's known even 30-40 year old Thais resemble somewhat a teenager. -
I left 15 years ago and have lived tax free ever since, I was 19 at that time. So i prove you wrong I guess. Been all this time in SE asia countries, never worked more than parttime too (just not needed as lower cost of living / virtually zero tax). It's basically like being retired. I only deal with governments when having no choice: renew passport, my visa + being stopped on the road. Anyway, to also answer the actual question of this topic: I do feel less and less free in Thailand, as well that anyone at any moment can start some drama or sht against you, even in years from now, always makes it feels it is not permanent. I never feel like this when in Laos, Cambodia or Vietnam or Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong. I guess this all kind of started around 2015 when they started to flip flop rules all the time with visa's too. I recently was so happy they finally made wise decision to change it to 60 days to then now have that changed back to 30 again too. Then even I would not mind the 30 ones, then the question is did they get instructions to be like nazi's again or they just still behave relatively nicely like in recent times with just less days only. Even I can get yearly visa's too or there is always a way, it somehow just still never feels good. I guess I can only achieve that next level of freedom by living on a sailboat.

Like how long was he even in there to need and drink his own urine, I call it complete BS and just a stupid decision of himself to do if he did it. I would believe the food would be impossible to eat but not to not get any water at all. Secondly it is an entire generation that is like this globally thanks to the lovely smartphones. Screening people won't solve it as 60% are like this lol.

Must Read German Attacker of Dentists in Korat Found Dead with Slashed Neck
ChaiyaTH replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
For what motive after months while he now actually was getting his court already. Makes zero sense timing wise. -
Must Read German Attacker of Dentists in Korat Found Dead with Slashed Neck
ChaiyaTH replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Sounds unlikely for murder to me, he did this already months ago so if the victim family wanted revenge that was done already. Besides the fact the police now actually does wanted to find and prosecute him. So i guess it is a mental dude who then did suicide. -
The worst restaurant experience of my life.
ChaiyaTH replied to Robert_Smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Was in a place myself yesterday with a friend, when the bill came of our stuff together (never paid attention on previous visits) there was a service charge of like 300 baht alone. This while we effectively had like zero service, what we received was nothing better or different than what any waiter would do. Seems they only get more expensive and greedy while the actual quality, quantity of food and service only goes down over the years. Could barely find other customers after 9PM there while it is a rooftop and friday night, inside an actual hot spot of the city. -

ChaiyaTH replied to Robert_Smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Barely started just now, the seasons are not the same anymore as they used to be. Many southern islands it even remains busy all year round. -
Lmao like dad is giving advice there might be heroin in weed joints 😄

That's the common other extreme here, the ones that stayed single because they were only busy with making a career. They are then too old already to really find someone matching with them as they often then want that to be a foreigner too. I dated a similar girl once and even she was super smart, nice, never needed money or even paid things for me, she also never had time. Bored of her work. Was better to then have someone you support. But it is quite a shock if you are used to paying all, organizing all, to then have a girl with a nice condo + a nice house elsewhere, a decent camry car, nice fashion and things going and to do lol. Suddenly you only need to be you and be there. But they want to often play the boss then. Problem with that is that they can just do younger guys for fun, so if you are a 'older male' already, yo should then do younger ones for fun too.

The only exception is a resident, comes down to more or less the same. The only other exception is that you have equal rights if you were prosecuted in USA, or on a USA territory. This has nothing to do with right wing at all in the first place. It's no different here either, if you talk about domestic politics and i file a complaint, your ass will be whooped here too. Section 112 remember.

Which ฿30/Gram Weed Seller Is Your Favorite?
ChaiyaTH replied to HugoFastor's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
Those suggested LINE shops from this post are garbage, I am pretty sure the OP is in on it himself too. They also spam constantly, having spelling mistakes, I never even received a COD order i tried to place. -
In today society the issue is people seem to think they only have to pay for product value + shipping etc costs at a most minimal possible way. The entire service / warranty part somehow needs to be free. The issues existing all are related to the same. It's no different with having just 2 jeans in total being normal in the old days, made by a tailor, perfectly fitting you and lasting for years, it also costed more for just 1 jeans at that time. While today people want 10 jeans with the same quality and fitting for a tenth. In a way economy is not the issue at all, it is people themselves.

Having been in eCommerce for 15+ years it is kind of funny that it is always a certain type of consumers that ends up having these problems more than rarely as they are usually the type of people trying to get the best bargains. Like taking additional risk for a 30-50 dollar savings on a 300-500 purchase. The irony is that they then at the same time expect the best level of customer support, owner loyalty etc, while you get that by essentially paying the normal price and not by trying to shave off that margin and purchasing it with blank sellers. It's in that way not really different with buying from alibaba, why people even expect to get the exact item they look for at that cheap price, with the first order. That was exactly what offline shops have been doing for decades, which made them a good shop, they tried various ones until finding the right one. I recently myself tried purchasing a jeans that looked way too good for just 350-400 baht on Lazada, the sizes were actually correct which is seldom, to then find out that there was no holes sewed yet for where the buttons go, the most strange fashion purchase experience ever. I'm too lazy to do it but it would actually still be a bargain if I bring it to a tailor shop here to finish what the factory should have done, to then sell them for 1500 baht each in Europe. Anyway, pay peanuts get monkeys.

I guess you would talk about these small stickies with pure weed in it? That can easily be done for 20 baht as it would just be around 0.30 grams per joint for the smaller ones while even I can get weed from 10 grams for 25 baht per gram. I usually buy 100-200 grams at the time now. Ignore those who not know better. My latest purchase (for those surprised, yes it is not even pop at that price): I really do not understand, I am personally too busy business wise, that nobody starts weed shops with the real deal prices + consistency. Basically it is possible to just wipe out 60% of all existing shops within months if starting to offer genuine prices in the main areas / cities. I'm pro business, a capitalist, but I have nothing with ripping people off or charging BS prices. If you talk about something costing 400-500 baht a gram you should be talking cup winning weed already that is perhaps even haze, expensive seeds, experienced grower. That is the stuff they now try to sell for like 1500-2000 baht. Prices in retail commercial or tourist areas should be 50-100-150-200 baht a gram at most for lower and higher quality. Something like in my photo should really never be costing more than 100 baht a gram or it is simply ripping off business. I hate the hypocrits in the industry as well, who always said they belong to the real stoners and want to make as many people happy as possible, who are just milking this now hard and do not give a rats arse about that philosophy anymore.

Thailand Launches Major Dengue Vaccine Trial in Children
ChaiyaTH replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
When you are no longer sleeping and you read headlines like 'doing a trial on kids' and that to be entirely regular news and normal. Well great they do this trial on kids, just not on my kid. Ciao. We all lived until today without it since humans exist so I guess we can also see trough the trials + 10 year later effects first then. No need to rush and get it yourself in that case at all. It's unreal how many shots I am offered in Thailand for my son each time we visit (outside regular ones). They even offered a flu shot half a year ago, I looked at her as if she had lost her mind. Giving flu shots to healthy kids, wtf. -
As of reading they pay people to do it in bunches, we could safely assume that a few would have made it trough as well? In that case we have a issue as there will be enough profits and enough idiots in europe to keep doing this. They likely are told they get away with nothing as it is just weed too, which is wrong. Anything above even 400 grams in Thailand you would need a license when carrying it around. Which btw is a very decent limit, I always buy per 100 grams myself at 25 baht a gram. And yes we are talking the 'top shelf' that costs 400-600 baht retail for tourists. A 100KG transfer would be worth like 500K-1M USD in Europe. Damn, I mean that kind of explains people taking the risk I guess, you could be retired at one trip while it is just weed. So if organized crime does this already with paying people their trips, you can be sure they would do up to dozens of people at once from all airports in the same day and some make it trough. Once again the failure of Thailand to properly legalize things and have proper licensed growers etc in place. There is no control at all now. Then next in politics the ordinary shop owner and smoker will be blamed for it again or has to pay the price etc. I guess the combination of cheap rent, cheap electric + all hardware from China around the corner is very interesting for weed growers. As it otherwise makes little sense, they could do it in eastern europe or europe in general too + ship over land safer. Just like hasj coming from marocco. Unless all this is 90% focused on the UK, i guess it is. In that case the retail value is even up to 2.5M USD. Maybe the solution is that the UK legalizes it, makes it worthless for criminals to be interested in it. Same as that is in Thailand a open market, a benefit of little regulation, what started with 400 baht per gram being normal is now already down to 20-30 baht. Same as with parhma medicine..

Do you consider yourself smarter than the average Thai?
ChaiyaTH replied to Robert_Smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
You over think what happiness is as of being smart, and trying to control it. The truth is that happiness is just a state of mind / emotion, similar to feeling anger. That's why a Thai can get as angry as it can get happy in the same speed. Empty minds are generally happy. -

You mean they would not fit in with the local lao kao parties? I guess that would be true. But nobody fits in for real with any locals, those who think that always look like a clown invited to a birthday party, like an accessory. I always tell myself; oh look another gandalf!
