Flying Foxes (Fruit Bats) in Samui
ESLTeacher1989 replied to phetphet's topic in Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao
Great way to risk catching Covid 22 or Rabies -
I'm thinking of maybe buying a villa in phuket in a year or two, budget probably around (10-15 million baht). - Id like to buy a new villa preferable in the bang tao area Just wondering from villa owners here , what has been your experience with these types of things.. -Buying the villa through using a thai company -Taxes, expenses, maintenance costs with swimming pool etc, repair costs -General day to day life (Do you regret your purchasing decision, or do you love having the extra space, swimming pool, a place to entertain guests etc). -Mold growth

There is a 20 baht shop just beyond Muang Phuket Chalong School, On the left hand side of the road, Just past the police checkpoint where they stop people coming from the underpass

The 250 baht Thai Massage........
ESLTeacher1989 replied to Iamfalang's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
You can get an oil massage, 150 baht/hour here in Phuket, really suprising really. they're all really well trained, and facilities clean but a bit cramped. Great value -

Best Airline if flying 1-2 times per year from US to Phuket Round Trip?
ESLTeacher1989 replied to calbear09's topic in Phuket
I wouldn't recommend EVA, old 777 planes now, when I flew from US - Thailand - food is well below average, entertainments is also just poor - average, No alcohol on the flight from what I can remember or just beer if there was any atoll -
https://www.agefotostock.com/age/en/details-photo/scooter-riders-waiting-at-a-traffic-light-in-bangkok/T54-1994767 Do you see any on them wearing masks in that photo??? Exactly I Count 0, Look at Pre Covid photos and near zero thais will be wearing masks in traffic....... The Sole reason Thai's are wearing masks now is because of COVID propganda , NOT pollution so don't try and pull that one GO to places like Ko Samui or Phuket where pollution and traffic is a lot "less" vs Bangkok and Thais wearing masks on scooters is still at 95%, SO many people brainwashed on this site, and who actively back non scientific enforced regulations- its scary

It's scientifically proven the chance of transmission of COVID is around 1% or less outside, If you outside on a scooter the chance of transmission would be extremely close to zero like 0.00000001% unless you have a passenger. -Indoors, do Masks make a difference, probably not....... but better safe than sorry
-
Seriously - I don't understand why they take pride in wearing a mask, especially whilst outside on a scooter with 0% chance of any transmission of COVID?

Ok so let say instead of Makro ......selling sliced chicken breast for a higher price, they allowed Makro workers during Non-peak hours to provide a cutting service for just 5-10B added on as a Tip for the work If a Makro worker works a 10 hour shift and provides this service 5 times per hour or every 15 minutes or do = 50 times x 10 baht = 500 baht extra for the worker per day x 10 days 5k baht extra a month for workers and then rotate staff. Considering most Makro staff are probably on 15k-20k baht, 5k extra baht could make a lot of difference

Salmon price have risen from about 550 baht per kg, to around 950 thb per kg in the space of just 7 months (Phuket Makro) Kind of ridiculous don't you think..........that means it now costs around £100 (5000 baht) for just 1 salmon fish Once prices rise, there's very little chance they will come down again. Salaries haven't increase in thailand or anywhere else in the World in the last 20 years Cost of living getting ridiculous

Covid-19 visa extensions ending
ESLTeacher1989 replied to edwarda909's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I really , really don't think they will continue COVID extensions now after March 25th for the mentions reasoned below 1) Many countries have now completely got rid of their covid restriction or nearly all of them e.g United Kingdom 2) Land border between Thailand and Malaysia reopning April 1st 3) The last COVID extension had much stricter rules applied, only tourist visa could apply and they were implicitly this is probably the last chance to get an extension 4) Easier to fly to cambodia and other countries now to get a new visa 5) No PCR test required before coming to Thailand -
To be fair its only going to be around £100 more for the 2 extra tests........................Food + Hotel price in Maldives vs Thailand - will come to Thousands of £££ more. Hardly any entertainment in Maldives also. Also Good luck getting a massage or renting a motorbike in the maldives £5 an hour/£5 a day, going to be more like £100 an hour, and the £100 a day for a motorbike

I just bought $200,000 of Bitcoin
ESLTeacher1989 replied to Pravda's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Bitcoin looks like its going to go lower in the short term, but odds are always good for a super cycle in a few years when it will reach $100k+ just a matter of time IMO, Greed is always there
