  1. Danang is awesome. Nha Trang would be great too, if it didn't have the largest concentration of Russians outside of Putinland. Phu Quoc is nice , been there several times, but wouldn't go there for the beaches, Koh Chang beaches are much more beautiful .Also the Vietnamese are world class litterers, they outlitter the Thais any time :
  2. You got both, the rude ones and the friendly ones.
  3. Not really. The far south of Vietnam hardly ever gets hit by typhoons.
  4. Same for the bicycle tires. Looked good, but lasted only a few months.
  5. I hope " not cheap" doesn't mean more expensive than the old Lotus branch.
  6. What happened to the Decathlon store at Lotus north Pattaya? Went up the escalator for my twice a year sports shopping to find empty space where the Decathlon store used to be. I know there is a new one out on Sukhumvit .Did they relocate?
  7. They do great post-mortems and investigations on adjacent Koh Tao.
  8. The problem is not that they intervened on behalf of the Thai woman, it's that a gang beat the cr.p out of intoxicated, more or less helpless, admittedly, idiots, and thoroughly relished the experience. One or two punches would have been sufficient, anything beyond that had very little to do with the initial slap of the girl, much more about sadistic, possibly xenophobic enjoyment of beating a farang unconscious. The slap was just a needed pretext. There is a lot of pent up aggression in a society that on the surface is extremely polite.
  9. Really, I also took " this" train in 1979, but you had to change trains in Butterworth. If there ever was a through train to KL, it must have been before 1979.
  10. Sure, there are fine people on both sides (according to the orange Jesus). A fine fascist is an oxymoron. The only good fascist is a dead fascist.
  11. No young girls in Vancouver?? Have they all gone to the MAGA US?
  12. But not much sex tourism in Vietnam. They are lacking the bar scene cum sex service infrastructure. No go go bars for example.
  13. Hearing it is illegal?I just heard it from AN. Will I be blacklisted? The whole story is BS. More Vietnamese hookers than Thai sex workers. No way. Would be great if it was true. Vietnamese women are a lot more attractive than Thai women.
  14. Why don't you fly to Malaysia, and try to enter Thailand overland. If they let you in, you are not blacklisted. If refused, go back to Malaysia. Alternatively, apply for a visa in Spain. If blacklisted, they will be denied.
  15. Especially in the last 5 years, prices in Thailand have risen considerably. I didn't visit Thailand from Jan 2020 to Aug2022, I was stuck in Vietnam during pandemic. I couldn't believe the prices in Thailand post Covid. Fruit and vegetable prices in particular.
  16. You don't need to go to Nha Trang for that. Vietcombank anywhere in Vietnam can do that for you.
  17. Don't know about tits, but teeth/dentists are not cheaper in Thailand, as a matter of fact, except for implants, which are only slightly cheaper in Vietnam, dentists are a lot cheaper in Vietnam.
  18. Wise has a limit of 50000 Baht per transaction, when sent to my KTB account. It depends on the Thai bank, with Bangkok bank there is no limit. I use payoneer instead for larger transfers. The question is why it is only wise that has these limits, and why only for certain banks but not for others.
  19. Actually, it's 6 pm Saturday till midnight Sunday, upon which the regular nighttime prohibition starts. TIT
  20. No to first, second or both questions?
  21. The bars on Soi 6 still open at 3.19? Is that something new?
