did my research, live in a well managed building. any anti social behaviour gets one warning, then kicked out. shows just how easy it is to have an extremely pleasant place to live.

Border run Pattaya to Cambodia
it is what it is replied to Pattaya57's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
which border point did you use? i have a mate on a multiple entry doing a border bounce from bangkok and heard the aranyapraphet/poipet border may be dodgy? -
Phuket has launched the Phuket Crime Free scheme, an initiative aimed at safeguarding international tourists during the peak season. why only safeguard tourists during the peak season? are tourists fair game for criminals outside peak season? would it be too much to ask for tourists to be safeguarded against crime all the time?

how about employing qualified, experienced teachers? -
Iran says it helped broker release of Thais held in Gaza
it is what it is replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
hostage negotiations are often fragile, prone to mistrust, misunderstanding, misleadings, mistakes it's really not surprising they're not going smoothly. -
so nice, that after its brief hibernation, the forum is back to being a melting pot for xenophobes. plus ca change.

Thai village bans road rice drying after tragic motorcycle accident
it is what it is replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
so the world should never change? can't we, as humans, find better and safer ways to do things. putting stuff on roads seems like a daft idea, but so does throwing water at motorcyclists but that still goes on. in many countries obviously dangerous practices are not usually tolerated or legal. sadly, this can be an unnecessarily dangerous place -
Anyone Else Finding AseanNow Almost Unusable Recently❓
it is what it is replied to Skeptic7's topic in Forum Support Desk
only use it with ad blocker, i understand and don't mind reasonable advertising but the ads were taking up more and more of the screen, distracting and annoying. for me the site was unusable without ad blocking. up to them. -
i use nord for uk connection, no problems at all. customer support very good. i had it for six months then had to return home for a while, so cancelled it. they quickly made me an offer, 36 months for 60 GBP, bargain.

This initiative is expected to attract around 50,000 tourists daily from November 24 to 28 agree. also, it's shockingly written as no context is given for the, twice mentioned, '50,000 tourists'. e.g. how does this compare to a normal day? who writes this stuff? who sub edits this stuff? why do such shockingly written articles keep getting posted here? why does no one notice how badly written it is?

the article is light on what actually happened. often the account holder is persuaded to give access to the scammer, so fault actually lies with the account holder for not being more switched on. my mother is 86 and manages to cut the call if anyone calls regarding her banking or investments, her bank will not call her and she know this. it's not difficult.

i can honestly say i've never had a bad experience with an IO either at the airport, land border or CW, they have always been reasonably efficient, helpful and sometimes even friendly. i do see other foreigners shabbily dressed, with attitude, with unhelpful interfering wives/gfs and can see how IOs could get fed up with such types. i believe if you're organised, relaxed, calm and patient you won't go far wrong

there are short term lets at my building but very rarely any issues. it's a well managed building and any contravening of the rules results in a warning and then, if no improvement, removal. i did my research and live in a building that i knew was well managed. research up front can pre-solve an awful lot of condo problems
