  1. They only seem to be making news here and in that bastion of international news, The Phuket Express, nowhere else, you work it out.
  2. I can show them where my next door neighbor lives, if that helps them, he's in this up to his neck.
  3. I suspect the guys tats were a magnet, they are often a sign of gang membership in Asia.
  4. Graduate schools commonly accept mature foreign students into their 50's.
  5. Nonsense. https://www.oxfordshirelive.co.uk/news/oxfordshire-news/oxfordshire-county-council-respond-viral-7900897
  6. Why do you think THB is artificially high?
  7. Traders typically square their positions just before the weekend because this reduces exposure on the FOREX, in strengthening currencies this usually results in a slight surge as holdings are sold. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/square-position.asp
  8. You think! You mean, you'd like it to be that way but it isn't so you'll pretend that it could be. ????
  9. Immigration is a department within the Royal Thai Police so yes, they exactly are law enforcement and I'm pretty certain they understand the law better than you or I. As for doing a better job differently: are you an experienced law enforcement specialist, do you have specialized knowledge and training about such things or it this merely a skill you acquired from playing with your Mr Junior Police Kit?
  10. Four, they were playing bridge in Pattaya.
  11. And when that happens, you know who to blame, all the scammers who have gone before you who have not learned a single useful word of Thai.
  12. I used to cross the Mexican border several times a month and often I would get the third degree, always on the US side mind you. I never had a problem with it, why would I, I hadn't done anything wrong. It's like getting pulled at Customs on the way back home, go for it lads, do your job I say.
  13. We all understand you have no ideas, it wasn't necessary to reaffirm that.
  14. Who says the tourists are objecting, apart from the Pattaya Mail saying that there are some objections on social media. There will always be objections on social media about everything that is capable of ever being complained about. Immi has a job to do, be quiet and let them do get on with it, if you have ideas about how they might do it better, keep them to yourself, nobody is interested.
  15. If you go to their website and look under About Us and scroll down to certification, it appears the hospital is HA certified to level 2. Whether or not that means their lab is certified, is unclear. You should look for two things, one is accreditation of the lab, preferably done to international standards and two, certification of the lab technicians, without both of those things any claim to to quality is not reliable.
  16. Nobody wants to see HH become anything close to what Pattaya is now, that's the risk if easier access is allowed and the airport starts to take on flights. HH is very conservative and it shows, it was the summer residence of the previous king so the rules are slightly different than elsewhere. Long may they remain that way.
  17. All the old guys in Pattaya on Cialis are going, some people have all the luck.
  18. Who wants to play at being King Canute, in their retirement years, I don't.
  19. You can see how this might be confusing to the older guys.
  20. If the lab is accredited and not some fly by night backstreet outfit, the test results can be relied on to be of an international standard.
