Noticed some of that in Udon Thani, after the 'great flood' in BKK that one year. Seem lots of folks with money believed the BS, and thought BKK was going to be underwater every year, or washed away in the next tsunami ???? Many bought 'safe' houses, but never seemed to use, and they sat empty. A glut of building, so to sell isn't really profitable. Maybe now with some appreciation, as most were condos & townhouse, so no land appreciation. Oops

You can see all those frowns under those masks ... hmm

I'm an open book, and it really wouldn't take much, if paying attention, to knock on my door. Though I highly wouldn't recommend it, unless you had all your affairs in order. ???? Local forum elsewhere, I had a few flat out threats, or implied they like to meet. I gave them my address ... ???? No takers ... big surprise. I find it easy to ignore people in my 'maturing' age.

Only place I know of is at Krung Thep. Just OK ... IF in the area, not sure I'd make special trip. Nice area to kill the day, park, lake & butterfly place. Although, if you've seen the Monarchs migrating, then it would be like seeing Niagara Falls, then one of the things they call waterfalls here. https://www.google.co.th/maps/place/Bangkok+Butterfly+Garden+and+Insectarium/@13.8092434,100.5554636,3a,75y,90t/data=!3m8!1e2!3m6!1sAF1QipP9p2e3VEDx5vie-EAwy4hd5SWF6-G-bqhKtUSP!2e10!3e12!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipP9p2e3VEDx5vie-EAwy4hd5SWF6-G-bqhKtUSP%3Dw203-h270-k-no!7i3000!8i4000!4m16!1m9!2m8!1sbutterfly!3m6!1sbutterfly!2sOr+Tor+Kor+Market,+101+Kamphaeng+Phet+Rd,+Chatuchak,+Bangkok+10900!3s0x30e29c141ea782c3:0xef703d7f3769af76!4m2!1d100.5474699!2d13.7970933!3m5!1s0x30e29c5c43145937:0x2dd1858c3d84918e!8m2!3d13.8095512!4d100.5549011!15sCglidXR0ZXJmbHlaCyIJYnV0dGVyZmx5kgEGbXVzZXVt

Glad I didn't follow that advice, or I would have spent 2.5 million baht over the years in rent, and that's being conservative, instead of make 2.5 million baht and living here rent free for 22 years. Although, if never invested in RE before, TH might not be the place to try your luck.

Now we're talking. Haven't indulged since 1999, @ Bulldog, Amsterdam. Right before first trip to Thailand, as didn't want to go from hot (Memphis USA) to hot SEA. Damn it was good. Hop over to Sweden, visit niece, and the rest is history. My only EU trip, and never again. Great museums, expensive & boring food. Skiing on ice mountain & snow, and sitting on Patong Beach the next WEEK ???? What a BEAUTIFUL WORLD

Agree and gov't hospital always, usually cheaper, considerably most times. Had hemorrhoids dealt with at Paolo Hosp (now BKK), and surgeon said he could have done at UT govt hosp much cheaper, but they didn't have a private room available, so I went with PH. I don't wards, or semi-private, especially in hot, mozzy season.

And you may still incur the 'foreigner surcharge' now allowed to have dual pricing for foreigner's hospital bills.

Don't think so

Need an address (lease, owner's blue book & ID), simply wait till money 'seasoned' ... 3 months usually for first time, 2 months for extensions, unless changed since last time I read. Pop into Imm office you plan on using & ask, 2 or 3 months. How & where to wait is UP2U.

Just a wee bit out of context ... ????

At least he didn't say he owned that big A$$ boat out in the bay.

Keeps flashing his bank account around (if it exists) and he may find it drained with him in a ditch somewhere. His future solved for him.

Pretty much anywhere outside a metro area. Size matters of course. Although, if you have to ask, then you probably can't.

Tawan Daeng, always a blast at Udon Thani (no P4P). There's one in Phit. https://www.facebook.com/TAWANDANG.PHS/

PKK, A Muang, PKK ... nil for tourist that ask Hua Hin ... P4P ... haven't a clue. google - 'hua hin forum' may help with that Hilton used to have brewery/beer garden/after hours, that was excellent & fun at times. Long time ago though. Haven't bothered playing single in 16+ years.

28% of 1000 polled, 280 people of the 350ish million Yanks or 0.00008% ???? ... stop already 37% of those 28% (108 people) actually own guns. Watch out Wash DC ???? https://uchicagopolitics.opalstacked.com/uploads/homepage/Polarization-Poll.pdf the guardian ran that little tidbit last month. that's embarrassing they are down to rag level, with the mail & sun. with the hill regurgitating it yesterday. think I'll stick to the news that isn't allowed here.

I prefer not to be that stoned. Did that as a youngin' with PCP I smoke .5 - 1 gr, and I'm quite happy with that buzz. How many grams used to make a 'dab'.... also prefer not to have a Richard Pryor experience ... butane & heat ... hmm For those scratching your head: https://adelanterecovery.com/blog/4-dangerous-side-effects-of-smoking-dabs/

Buzz factor while still smoking: good ... before finishing 1 gr doobie better ... before finishing half 1 gr doobie best ... before finishing half of 1/2 gr doobie

Actually I think you are ....

@Sparktrader You need to be a lot more specific in your queries. What are you looking for ? Is this a holiday or recon ? Traveling single ? P4P ? Having transport to/from, or renting while there ? Or public trans ? Phuket ... I'd go to Kamala Beach to start, but you'll eventually need transport, so I'd rent a MB or car if not comfy on scooter.

Watched the trailer, and that female just didn't belong. Even researched the timeline, to see if even possible, and NO. All inclusive is fine, as they do walk among us ... ???? but not for a time piece, at least try to keep it real. Being in is fine (non historical), but don't play the oppression angle, as that's BS in the western world now, and been that way for 30 ish yrs, at least where I'm from. Actually never an issue in my peer group growing up. I obviously grew up in different environment.

The GC smelled fine also.

I was actually thinking he same thing, but 'gay' didn't enter my mind ... hmm More just thinking 'ain't right in the head'

Same in USA, for as long as I can remember.
