Speaking the truth is now a risky business in Britain
DonniePeverley replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I'm reading free speech in America is not around anymore with recent arrests. Try and speak freely in Thailand and see what happens. Go to Dubai and try there too. What about China ? Go protest whilst your out there and see what happens. In the UK we can protest say what we want, but just no hate speech - ie racism. Which is fair. -
Thai Tourism Fears Loom as Casino Debate Heats Up
DonniePeverley replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Absolute nonsense. Once you allow 4 to open, that's the box opened. Then slowly with a few backhanders they open everywhere. Mark my words, see Cambodia, there will be regions changed and dedicated to casinos. Wall to wall casinos. Pure filth. -
Bangkok Gears Up for 2028 Formula One Grand Prix with New Plans

It's a huge tourist draw. Why do they want to get rid of something that brings in tourism? Tourism is there only booming industry. -

What happens is that they completely take over. You open pandors boxes and they will build them everywhere. Can you trust the thai administration to curb them? Not a a chance. They'll build so many for Chinese launders that the y will build them on beach zones if they can. -
Thai Tourism Fears Loom as Casino Debate Heats Up

Absolutely nuts. Did they not see the mess in Cambodia ? Singapore is a complete different market. You have executives, bankers, living in Singapore. The visitors to Thailand are cheap mass tourists on budget holidays, with crumbling infrustructure - it's going to do exactly the same as what was happening in Cambodia. When you open this can of worms they will not stop and be building everywhere. Then destruction. -
Thailand Holds Off on 30-Day Visa-Free Change Decision
DonniePeverley replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Indian restaurants. Indian tour groups. Indian hotels. Indian nightclubs. Indian restaurants. Everything set up for them. How much of that is going back into the local economy - only they will know. But it's crazy how much of an influx into one city it has become. Even middle class indians i know are appalled. -
German Tourist Severely Beaten in Pattaya by Group of 10 Men
DonniePeverley replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Tourists have to remember this isn't Magaluf or Ibiza. Awful what's happened. Social media toss pots fuelling this mantra to come to Thailand and live a lawless free party lifestyle. It's all fake nonsense. These tourists do not behave like this in Dubai or Singapore, yet feel embolded to misbehave in Thailand. The policing has been too soft too. -
I don't like cats. Or dogs.

Some of the mice are rats. And these cats are terrified of the rats.
-
Agree its terrible. It depends on how squirmish and disturbing things will become with mice around your home. If you can tolerate them then fair enough, try something else. If they start breeding and you simply cannot even sleep in your home out of fear - then you have to take extreme measures.

Must be the same for Indians. They've turned Pattaya into an Indian city. -
Glue boards work. The last thing you want is them breeding.

Thailand's Coastline Threatened by Melting Iceberg, Expert Warns
DonniePeverley replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I don't think Thailand is in any position to be hypocritical and lecture anyone or worry about the problems - they actively allow 40 million tourists to use planes to travel into their country. No attempt made for quality tourists, they actively encourage more mass cheap tourism. As a result they are already damaging their beautiful islands and coastlines. Servicing 40 million tourists is a hell hole for the enviromental. Think of where that rubbish, plastic, sewage all go. -

Thailand Cracks Down on Shady Massage Parlours
DonniePeverley replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It's the eco system. They start of as Coyote girls who don't go with customers but just dance. They then get older and go with customers. Then they become bar girls. Then as the years advance some end up on the streets, but most will go into massage - which offers a happy medium between a brothel/safety/and a semi profession. Not that i would know. -

Thailand Cracks Down on Shady Massage Parlours
DonniePeverley replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I didn't mean sexual. I was referring to the poor quality of massages in some areas - particular tourist zones. I've been getting massages long enough to know that when they begin digging in elbows, as opposed to hands, they are tired and it's a short cut. The objects are also sometimes used to be lazy. -

The only thing Thaiand is importing from the UK is the Benidorm drunk Brits on a budget holiday, who make no attempt to fix into the local culture, and the older variety being racist. -

It's not even the dirty massage shops. You basically have anyone with hands just turn up take a days training and are let out on customers. They have no ideas on pressure, experience, look for signs of relaxation etc They just basically apply oil and rub up and down (literally). I've gone out of the tourist zones, some old skool massage shops and dayam they are wonderful, a proper throwback. The joints may not be in the best condiiton but these are masseuses who put some pressure on, respond by experience to know where you are feeling pain and relaxation. The problem i feel in tourist zones comes from fatigue. Ladies can suffer from exhaustion like anyone else. You see short cuts (like using objects, or elbows). -
That's just it .... many spend time away from Thailand. Kids study in international schools, etc
