  1. Real fortunetellers will never be able to give lottery numbers, or other lucky things... They even can't tell you when you die, if they see it.. It is not allowed
  2. Indeed.. it is almost impossible to find someone who is not tattooed anymore.....
  3. It can be a kind of art, but not very long ago tattoos were for certain kind of people, as you mentioned too, gangsters, sailors, hookers, criminals....It can be beautiful a single one, but nowadays you see a lot of people all over the body tattooed and do they think it will be beautiful when they are at an old age and the tattoos are fainting.. It is almost impossible to get rid of them. Again a single small one can be nice
  4. I have made a topic about this too and again it shows that WISE is witholding the money.. It is blamed on the Bangkok Bank, but they have nothing to do with it. I have used Remitly and it arrives in seconds, even on Sundays and holidays, but WISE keeps on telling me that it is a holiday and the banks are not working, or that it is the bank to blame that it takes so long. On my question why Remitly can do it, they don't answer it, as they have to deal on the same days and holidays. Wise says they have to process every transaction. but that is of course not true. I worked on a Bankoffice for more than 28 years and everything is digitalized already for many many years and only exceptions are being checked. Wise is making money out the transactions. They have an amount of THB for a certain prize and they will process the transactions for that price. But when the exchange rates are changing they keep the money to make profits and blame the banks... The strange thing is that with Kasikornbank there are less problems, so now I sometimes transfer money to my partners account at Kasikorn, it arrives quickly and than I transfer it to my account...Wise was once very reliable, but nowadays I get less trust in them.. Kasikorn can work now but how long it is not sure.. probably they will change that too
  5. Nowadays everybody seems to be tattooed... Even young kids are mutilated for the rest of their lives.. I don't understand why, where does it come from?? In some tribes and countries it is a tradition that goes back for ages but here in Thailand it seems the more colors your skin has and the more pics on it the more beautiful it is....Are Thai people so unsatisfied with their bodies??
  6. This comment shows it all.. you can't discuss in a decent way
  7. at first sight it seems the motorcyclist enjoyed it a bit...hehehehehehe
  8. She is fake apparently, as when is could really see the future she would have known that a file against would be complaint.. And now she is hospitalized as a result of her stress.. but if she really can predict things she sees the outcome...and don't need to be stressed...
  9. They could calculate that very much ... it is not even a month going on...yes some problems since February, but it were minor issues, the big issues started a few weeks ago... and now they know they are talking about monthly losses.. Maybe a start for Thailand to keep the problems small and respect the outcome of the ICJ and stop being used by a family..
  10. I know but when you only have a ceremonial wedding, there is nothing that keep the partners from having other partners.. As soon as there is a legal wedding and partners are bound to pay when the wedding ends it will be different... because if a ceremonial wedding ends everyone goes their own way, but in a legal divorce they can claim money and goods, and than many will think twice
  11. Many couples don't official marry, but only ceremonial for the family.. That means that there are no legal obligations and the couple can do as they want..I am convinced that official marriages will change things.. As one of the spouses is getting another lover and there will be a divorce, there will be financial consequences, something that is now with only ceremonial weddings not needed. We all know that when it cost money people will act differently and maybe will think twice..So make relationships legal with consequences and I am sure things are changing.. I see in my neighbourhood, that some women are already 4 or 5 times ceremonial married, and the man leaves after several months or years leaving the woman behind with kids, and of course no allowance for the kids... I am wondering if they would separate if the man knew he had to pay for the kid(s),,,I think maybe they would think twice..
  12. Looks more like an army than a policeforce....Maybe they should not need training but starting to work first.
  13. As wrote before... Thai working in other countries are paying taxes there....... and if they only stay in Thailand less than 180 they don't need to pay tax here about that money....Tax offices works in other countries much better than here in Thailand, where the Revenue Department has no clue who is doing what where and how much they earn..
  14. You don't know what is going on as you show in your comment.. Only that you are xenophobic...Maybe you should inform you better with foreign news instead of local papers
  15. your comment says enough about your education level
