There is night bus leaving satuk at 21.20 evening. In bangkok about 0430 passing dmk.

Price ca thb 430.

Used it 4 times, ok.

Something "strange" here ??

"Rich or lucky" young lady, thai, doing stupid wearing gold walking street.

On other hand, sm art enough giving cctv to police.

Ordered robbery-insurance scam?? :-)

We dont know who startet the quarrel..

It might be the lady..

That has even happened to me :-)

If they vote according to his wish they admit they are corrupted and "owned"

Or that its possible to treathen them...

Dont know whats most humiliating, to the supreme court-and the united states...

Maybe she should get a new mother in law and what goes with it.

Normally a husband would "set his mother right" if she bullies his wife :-)

When applied the last time in october to thai embassy oslo i was surpised to find NO QUESTION about the insurance.

May it last :-)

There you go:

A real christmas wonder :-)

And Santa, dressed as member of fire brigade :-)

Ho Ho Ho

Im not qiite sure on opinion here:

On one hand:

Very nice of involved people.

On the other:

Honesty should be natural by people...

And no 3:

Feel like "media" say:

"This is beyond expextations and great, unexpected news, good gor Thailand".

Meybe thats the saddest :-)

Gave her thb 10.000 for christmas and birthday dec 30 th.

She was not happy.

Even if 40% thai families have to manage eith that amount ir less monthly.

I have never in my life been given a months salary as a gift... :-)

This original story another example of how media draw immidiate conclusions, specially in non-thais.

The original story was focused in a manner that he was obviously guilty.

The bank is of course responsible to solve the matter-they can afford it.

But still puzzles me-how could he get/manage maintain a loan at that size on his salary ????

Rice is cheap, but ??? :-)

Of course the bank will resell it i fail to make down payment of the loan.

Thats the whole reason for the morgage. (And why putting up "your house" in thailand for such, should be a "no NO" !!!

"people who can't speak english"   You do realise where you are don't you ?  Unbelievable comment.   Have you even considered learning some Thai

"annoying old people that are treated like gods but have never done a days work in their life"               What an unpleasant and ignorant remark, you need to learn some respect,  How on earth could you even begin to know their work history with your obvious lack of language skills ?   You should certainly be looking at the floor , In shame !

I hope your long suffering partner has a brother, because it looks to me like you need to be taught some manners, or maybe they should just give you a lift to the airport

You were not designated as a babysitter for the kids, its just that all the adults want nothing to do with you,   why would they?

Honestly, some people!

I did try, surely as many other here, try to learn thai. Bought books, tried to listen to how thais talk etc. (I speak norwegian, english, some german, little french and understand danish and swedish).

My experience in buriram when try to speak thai (exept basic things) is they just look, and seems not try understand. So after a while you just stop trying.

When, in norway, a foreigner tries norwegian we really do our best to understand, and give him credit for his efforts.

Dont say all thais dont try, but to many dont, unfortunately :-)

Why go ??

Sudden illness :-)
