Why did he even bother wasting time & money at Uni ? Agree with below ... companies could care less about employees. You're on your own from day one. Daughter is on her 3rd job in as many years, after Uni, and simply tolerating it, as pays better than first 2. It will do while she builds here online & RE empire, for retirement.

Not really, and my experiences are a bit different. No stating it doesn't happen, but not all the time, and actually the exception. Getting in/out of BTS/MRT, yes, most times, but almost understandable, if you want to get in at rush hour. Not much different from other big metros that I've visited. Always a few inconsiderate folks. Whoosa ... 😎 Planes leave TH, a few every hour ...

As long as the 'made in TH' entry level & import prices for JP's badged cars are more expensive, they'd be crazy to discount any more. They already beat to the non CN competition. I think the international market is their big profit market.

Here's the coastal viewpoint road. Hyped a bit too much, so might get disappointed. A short stretch of road past Kung Wiman Beach to Noen Nang Phaya Viewpoint ... not my photo https://www.google.com/maps/place/Noen+Nang+Phaya+Viewpoint/@12.5982502,101.8663885,14.95z/data=!4m15!1m8!3m7!1s0x3103776619707251:0xad962e87ed0ad720!2sKhung+Wiman+Viewpoint!8m2!3d12.6040698!4d101.8781563!10e5!16s%2Fg%2F11bwh4qn7k!3m5!1s0x3103777bda592567:0x88572c83cb35a8af!8m2!3d12.5913668!4d101.8810705!16s%2Fg%2F1q62918vt?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDUxMi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

Leamsing View Resort & Chaiwat Resort (next to each other), ~3 hrs away, and resort is a stretch, but pet friendly, and on the other side of the road, from surf. Decent enough drive at times along the coast. One well known viewpoint, photo opt, if interests you. Post again if remember exact spot. This restaurant was an very nice experience & munch. 10 mins from hotel This one, food just OK, though primary reason was for the Kites. (BUT ... 1 hr from hotels) Map link for resorts: https://www.google.com/maps/@12.4743746,102.0746531,133a,35y,356.9h,45.02t/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDUxMi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D Kitchen Alisa map: https://www.google.co.th/maps/dir/Kitchen+Alisa,+Pak+Nam+Laem+Sing,+Laem+Sing+District,+Chanthaburi+22130/Leamsing+View+Resort,+Pak+Nam+Laem+Sing,+Laem+Sing+District,+Chanthaburi/@12.4817756,102.0629849,2618m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x3103807efdbe6271:0xcf64a1285c567ed8!2m2!1d102.0684277!2d12.4898564!1m5!1m1!1s0x3104795000000001:0x22f3aed33a246d62!2m2!1d102.0748014!2d12.4760468!3e0?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDUxMi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

Where we go O&A, there is rarely congestion, but get behind slow traffic on a windy and or upgrade road, and the instant power is nice. Can pass where I wouldn't attempt it before, with the same car, but the ICE version. Neither high performance, but those few seconds faster, makes a lot of difference when passing.

THANKS. Usually very skittish and never profiles for me, let alone sitting on the wall before. Actually took the photos from inside our bedroom. He was distracted by the dog sitting & barking in front of the glass doors. Good Dog

When stuck behind slow moving vehicles, and there is not enough road to pass,IF driving a less performing (ICE) vehicle. The instant torque & hp is awesome at times, and much appreciated. Once you experience it, you'll understand, and not go back to just 'settling for', low hp @ xxxx rpms. Sort of like masturbation vs intercourse or BJ. Hope that helps explain it ... 😎 Your statement equates to a virgin asking ... "Why should I have sex with another person, when I can masturbate" Let that sink in, don't hurt yourself.

Great ... a 'Look at Me' festival. Celebrate what everyone does naturally. Let the 'freak show' begin ... oops ... I meant one's expression mixed with 'art, style & grace' Flashback to 2024 https://www.travelandleisureasia.com/th/travel-tips/trip-planning/iconic-pride-events-in-asia/

Drink water (or milk) kefir to improve you gut health. It's almost the only water I drink at home. Don't know why anyone would think 1 shot (28 gr) of EVOO would improve one's gut health. Good if trying to gain weight, having 248 calories, 36% of your sat. fat, and 19% of total fat for the day. I can think of better ways to consume 248 calories; 100gr / 3.5oz of beef tenderloin for one.

I think the price war is pretty much over. Everyone is probably done with the 'wait & see' thinking. Entry level pricing really can't get much lower, <฿600k BYD & MG have had stable pricing now. Saw the MG line up at the mall last week, and full up ... ... couple hybrids if wanting ... low entry MG3, would be fun to scoot around town in ... larger SUV hybirds ... new S5 (ZS replacement (?), and ฿719k (promo) 👍 ... sporty, entry price MG4, couple versions starting at ฿569.9k (D promo) ... even sportier IM6 w/quick charging, and nice price for those wanting ... even dropped their ICEV line up down to near no profit prices, <฿600k. Would think that whole line up is on borrowed time in TH. BYD with more than a few to choice from, with different price points for all. Both having large dealer networks now with charging facilities, if needing. Hard not to go with either one of those auto makers.

You really have to ask ... think 'tourist' ... nuff said.

Depends how ignorant the arresting officer was. I wouldn't take the chance. Simply raise your hand in a crowd and someone snaps a photo, and you're in trouble for a Nazi salute. I'll stay clear of countries that suppress free speech & expression. Yes, I know TH won't let you discuss the royals or image of TH. Almost as it should be, for us 'tourist' anyway. If you don't have anything nice to say ... stay away That should be on arrival card, or a banner at immigrations, in every country.

Oops, quick edit ... THANKS

T-shirt ... oh please. Proper collared, button shirt 😎 Mother would never let us out of the house looking destitute I posted swastikas before on the forum, non Nazi one, and they offended someone, and it got deleted. Nazi one is always, usually, black on 45°, with white background surrounded or draped in red. How any other confuses people simply shows their complete ignorance.

And that is the problem. Same with the swastika. One nutter uses it, and even though been around for 100s of year prior, it's demonized by snowflakes or organizations the enjoy free press and or control of the press. A rat ... I think they get enough bad press, they don't need any more. Concentrate on their flees, or simple body lice, as they were the true demons

Why I don't think I can travel international, except to USA, were most free expression is allowed. I know I definitely can't wear the one shirt I have in the UK or EU, as probably misunderstood and I'd get arrested for it. Cleared at trial, but too much hassle. Aside from any symbol I might wear, talking might be illegal And I'm a 'live and let live' kind a guy. Don't care what you think or say, just stay clear of me & mine, and we won't have a problem.

I found intelligent people can think for themselves. Snowflakes have a very low melting point. He got exactly what he wanted. Free press to spread his thoughts. It's a shame that supposedly intelligent people can't realize that. But hate, like sex & blood, sells. You can't fix stupid ... that applies to both sides of the coin. Those that spout hate, and those that give it an expanded, international platform. Go figure Kind of makes you wonder ( I don't ), which is the more stupid or ignorant ones.

You don't need a lawyer, per se. Go to the 'family service' office at your Amphur office, and explain the situation, and they will advise you if possible. I did that to adopt my 'village orphan', and even with the parents permission, due to trafficking laws, it wouldn't be allowed. Of course I had a lawyer tell me differently. But head of family services, who would be the approving official, stated simply a scam. I'd lose locally in court. Pay the lawyer more to appeal, and simply lose again. Unless a big fee to a corrupt judge is paid. Your situation may be different, since married to his aunt. She should have no problem adopting, I would think, but adding you as father, may be an issue. My daughter did adopt us, as her parents, once an adult. You can look forward to that in 8 years, if request is turned down.

He's the president of the USA, not the leader of the world. Surely everything is his fault though. Damn you Trump, why can't you stop my kitchen faucet from that damn drip drip drip

Yea, who would imagine they'd show up at refresher training ... shock, surprise, dismay Never seeing PoPo is a good thing in my world Let that sink in ... don't hurt yourself.

It would be a waste of resources, as they simply are not needed. Violent crime is very rare on public transport in TH: rail & bus services. Plenty of CCTV everywhere now, and surely more to come. And yes, I remember the rape & murder on the train, over a decade ago. Emphasis on very rare.

Love it .... Rock On ...
