    sorry to pop your thai bashing bubble, but thailand is not a third world country - check the definition for yourself. thailand has an upper-middle income economy having made significant progress in economic and social development over the past few decades

    it was reported in the uk press he was unemployed
  4. it is what it is
    it's actually far more common than you think for someone to go missing, in the uk around 170,000 people are reported missing every year, that about one every 90 seconds - and those are only the reported ones. some people just want to disappear.

    there's always one...

    yea bangkok is finally growing up, public transport congestion is nothing new as can be seen in capital cities the world over. indeed, the govt need to introduce a ULEZ zone, they really need to do something constructive to counter the increasing pollution problem.

    italians and indians slapping each other, so?
  8. it is what it is
    10k handout to poor people, if used in the right way, can make a lot of difference. to make a real difference capital investment is needed, not populist sticking plaster schemes that deliver short term and questionable benefit.

    don't waste your money, find a partner you can trust

    WTF !! these people are brain dead absolutely these people? please don;t negatively generalise. my gf is thai, she has a bachelor degree, two master degrees two and two doctorates, she owns 7 properties, 4 cars and runs a portfolio of successful companies, brain dead? i don;t think so. stop hanging out with the low class, low educated and you'll be amazed at how amazing thais and thailand can be.

    i doubt very much this was purely down to cannabis
  12. it is what it is
    yea, would be my suggestion, also very touristy, there simply insn't an arts scene here similar to what you'd find in other countries. more's the pity.

    i thought it ironic that in his inauguration speech he said he would make other countries would respect the usa. sorry mate, other countries know a) you're an out and out self serving bully and liar, and b) americans are idiots for electing you. zero respect there.
  14. it is what it is
    yea, they're off to a bad start with that one, not going to happen.
  15. it is what it is
    for sure possible, but depends on your expectations/lifestyle, everyone to their own, but i'd rather be back home than have to live here an a pittance.
  16. it is what it is
    must be something about you. i've never had an issue with a 7/11 or, in fact, any shop in thailand. though i can say 7/11s have on occasion given me too much change, and been thankful when i pointed this out
  17. it is what it is
    i paid voluntary class 3 and qualified for a full pension long before i'm due to retire. the best investment anyone can make, absolute no brainer

  19. it is what it is
    They start doing s**t like that its bye bye Thailand. no problem, up to you Furthermore, if they think they have any authority to tax my foreign pension I will tell em where to shove it. good luck with that. i bet they're quaking in their boots
  20. it is what it is
    that's pretty funny. killjoys only unhappy because they didn't think of it.
  21. it is what it is
    he should have invested in a vpn
  22. it is what it is
    Who says that Thailand is pedestrian friendly? no one's ever said that to me...
  23. it is what it is
    You can open a bank account you just need to use an agent. no you don't. actually, i don;t know anyone who needed to use an agent. it's not difficult.
  24. it is what it is
    so many people obsessed by saving a few baht on food. if there's one thing worth paying for it's decent food.
  25. it is what it is
    if you can't afford a pair of glasses? sounds like you have a bigger problem than being unable to buy a pair of glasses, maybe that problem needs addressing and everything else will fall into place.
