  2. No. That sounds like a corrupt left-wing populist government rather than a corrupt right-wing government. But still corrupt and coming from vote buying.
  3. I visited much of Thailand during CoVid-19 and was surprised by the panic there about the epidemic. The general idea was that it was transmitted by foreigners and in some shops they directly prohibited us from entering. Even Thais outside of Chiang Rai were subject to a lot of restrictions. Some of my wife's relatives directly refused to receive us because we came from Bangkok and Phuket. Cutting my hair was outright impossible, until I ended up at a small barbershop run by an old man who seemed to really need the money and agreed to cut my hair. I did not have the same problem in any other part of Thailand (Chiang Mai, Bangkok, Phuket, Koh Samui, Koh Tao,...)

    If everyone sells a product for 1,000 baht, and someone else sells it for 100 baht, don't bother buying it, because it sure is a scam. Even in Amazon. I had that problem with memory cards, once. Never again! Fortunately, Amazon's return policy is good.

  11. I don't usually go to bars, except sometimes the skybar in Siam@Siam, or sometimes to the Hilton, to have a cocktail while watching the sunset. But I do drink in restaurants at lunchtime, or at the Holiday Inn seafood buffet on Saturdays. As for my language expressive abilities, they are quite good in my native language, and I think I can handle myself acceptably well in the other languages that I speak to a greater or lesser degree (Spanish, English, French, Russian, Italian and Portuguese).
  12. In chemical engineering. Oxidation of hydrocarbons in complete mix reactors.
  13. There is a Piri Piri Flaming Grill in Terminal 21 Pattaya. https://goo.gl/maps/FjWNMDJRdc8pB8rFA
  14. Pattaya is not as good a dive site as Koh Tao or Koh Lipe, but there are a couple of dive centers that organize dive trips: departures from the port in a boat, two dives and food on board. I usually dive with No Limit Divers in Second Road (near restaurant Casa Pascal) https://goo.gl/maps/sAm4CaPSqWQdaPVR9
  15. Does he prefer New Zealand wine to Italian? What a gourmet!
  16. Maybe they are about to expire

  21. We went for the breakfast buffet last year when we stayed at the hotel. We went because it was included in the price of the room, but we didn't like it at all, and we wouldn't pay 300 baht to have breakfast there.

  23. If you like green olives, you can get Crespo Green Spanish Olives Stuffed w/ Pimiento Paste 354 G at Big C cost ฿78.00/ Bottle. https://www.bigc.co.th/product/crespo-green-olives-stuffed-w-pimiento-paste-354-g.43570 But, when I live in Pattaya, I always buy black Spanisk olives Crespo at Villa Market at ฿75.00 for a tin of 387g.
  24. In fact, we don't know why they closed. If the rent was too high, if the landlord refused to renew the rental contract, if they found another more convenient location,... A company statement would have been nice. At least say if they close permanently or if they move to another location.
