Lived with Thai gal three years, then married in Vegas for 300USD. After the official voiced the chain and ball commitment of you are now man and wife, she whispered to me “ now your dolla my dolla”. took it as a joke, however the atmosphere became very cloudy as every other question “ how much u got”. this is a gal from a good South family. Two university degrees, long time job, never dated much. She was 39 years then.. Not a pub girl, though she enjoyed porn very much. after four days of financial interrogations, I contacted a local divorce attorney and he had his paralegal draw up dissolution papers and filed them. Took two months and about 3k quid. She challenged it in court but did not retain legal services as she was now in BK and thb pipeline dried up. bottom line , I spent about 48k quid on her over three years. Holiday girl at three times a week, plus expenses would have amounted to the same . As well, new model as you desired. Marriage is an outdated concept that has nothing to do with commitment and companionship. It’s all about politicians and preachers controlling your life. working girl, pub girl, 40 year old virgin or even ladyboy (yuk) , if there is a true bond based on love and trust between u, marriage is more of a threat to ur relationship. Some gals view it as an ace in the hole when comes to splitting up.

When I worked contracts in VTE, I would quite often go to Nong Khai and UD for entertainment and medical. Always enjoyed my time there. Usually stayed at Centra and was within walking distance of venues. Friday and Saturday eves in Nong Khai on the boardwalk was usually entertaining as well. Never had any issues or problems there. Only went BKK if I had a specific reason.

Siem Reap... I worked a six month contract there in 2012 for an asian upstart LLC.. One A320 and all we did was go from Seim Reap to Incheon, spend the night and come back the next day. Easy gig, good pay. I did take in the cultural aspects of being there ..Ankor Wat, Ankor Thom and such. But I was appalled at the way the locals let tourists trash the place. Very little respect for the Khemer reverence. Otherwise, it was a giant gambling, drug sucking, rundown brothel. Mickey's was the best. Can't say I didn't enjoy myself, but really disgusting how World heritage sites were allowed to be over run. Hope it changed for the better.

I’ve gone to BKK Dental Hospital in BKK for11 years. Last year decided to try ASSAVANT dental. Was a nightmare. Overcharge me , paid for tooth repair I never got, cleaning was a torture trip. ended up going back to BKK dental to fix all the mistakes.

Given the State of affairs in the USA, it amazing me how much Time and USD are being expended for two political factions trying to destroy each other. From my prospective there are so many more events in the USA, as well as World-Wide that would benefit to a much greater degree given the Resources, Time and USD that is being depleted over these issues.

When did U-Joe check out? I never heard about it. Was great guy to visit with and fantastic source of info over the last 12 years. Hope he doesn't have to deal with 90 day reports in the next life.

If an assumed victim waits several months, or even a year to grasp the reality of an assumed incident and report it to the authorities, then one might think it was just period of rationalization and acceptance of the assumed event. However, a multitude of years passing and no action taken to report the assumed event lay suspect to ones alleged occurrence of the event. The assumed victim should be held responsible for not reporting an alleged crime of this magnitude rather than attempting to "play the Ace card" many years later. She is in her golden years. Her book deal failed. She lacks the notoriety she once had. She is likely being played by a pack of "woken" and bitter political mongers.

They are a pack of hyenas sporting to be the Alpha and be the first to grab the "Kills" loin.

My ex Thai Lady (then 39 years old), was oblivious to the outside World and many places in Thailand as well. Two University degrees and an interpreter, yet had little idea of the World around her. Probably the most astounding comments she made were the Holocaust did not happen, it was a political stunt and the moon landings were staged behind a barn somewhere. Took her to Europe and USA on several trips. Her only interest was the pretty home and good wine. No interest or knowledge of history or political figures. She would prefer to sleep most of the day and sho for clothes and handbags in the early eve. As the old saying goes... if it flies, floats, or .......; just rent it. Holiday girls are the answer.

Get your mrs or friend to ring them up and ask them. Do same with BKK hospital for high and low numbers.

The the term "Cockpit" was considered inappropriate, the Yanks coined the term "flight deck". We always like the term "Box Office" more, but decided the "awakened" people would be offended. Many aeronautical terms originated from a Nautical background. During the days of large sailing vessels, the crew carried livestock for their daily larder as needed. The Cock (rooster) would often perch up in the wheelhouse area and thus the term "Cockpit" was coined. Flight crew is good for 30 days in Thailand without visa if they carry a copy of the crew dec they entered the country with. Don't know if Thai IO stamps your passport now days as flight crew on Crew Dec status. They never stamped mine when I enter on crew dec, but that was few years back.

Read about these occurrences quite often, but never hear about what happens when one cannot pay the hospital fee and no family to help or retrieve them.

I don't interpret this as a rambling post, but rather a Gent blowing steam to vent his frustrations. Most all of us could improve our written construction and conveyances, but we should never let another restrict one's desire to express themselves through harmless literary comments . As an Expat in LOFS you'll live with "Thaism" daily and most will try to ignore it. However, the acceptance of it can be difficult when we see little ones like Dang take some of the abuse due to their association with "Falangs". We are a guest in this Country with little chance of ever becoming a citizen and even if we did, the discriminate actions would continue. Love reading these type of narratives on how other folk experience life in Thailand.

27 years later? Why not Two, or Three, or even Four years after the alleged rape? Her book was a flop, she's not of the notoriety that she once was. Was she actually raped? Maybe yes and maybe no. This certainly going to be based on how sympathetic the seated jurors are going to interpret the case. After all, Ms Carroll really has little to lose. She will be able to write another book, no matter the outcome and garner the sobbing hearts of many a "woke" pathetic souls. Ms Stormy? What a riot. Previous Madame of night that has previously profited from her allegations would like to jump on the band wagon with Ms Carroll. If indeed Trump and Ms Stormy entered into a business agreement for a short tryst and she was compensated as agreed, then later is paid an enormous sump to keep quite, would she not be liable contractually? These are two aging ladies that are attempting to gain financial status in the woeful aging years. The previous rape allegations of a former USA president known for his sexual escapades in the White House office and lying to the USA public lead to a senate investigation. But the rape allegations went nowhere.

No marriage extension stamp in passport No registered in Thailand You are not recognized as being married. My current Thai lady hooked up with a yank Ten years ago. They married in Temple to please her family, but never registered in Thailand. When he ran out on her, she had no recourse for a settlement because marriage was never registered and there is a period in which u must register the marriage.

My brother had dual citizenship. USA was one of the Passports. He lived BKK married to Thai lady. They went Las Vegas and did a legal five minute wedding. Never registered Thailand. When they took different paths in life, he called a divorce Attorney in Nevada and did the whole shebang online Zoom call with Judge. Contested... He had the Divorce attorney send the "soon to be" ex the divorce papers via FedEx with signature required on acceptance. That met the legal requirements of being served the notice. She had 90 days to respond. She did not respond and the judge gave her nothing in the divorce. Uncontested... Get a Paralegal to draw up the papers and submit them to the court. You and "soon to be" Ex will need to each submit a financial statement and attest it is a pre-agreed, non contested divorce. I did this when I divorced a yank fro the State of Oregon. Paralegal was $375 USD. Court fees were around $450 with the papers certified and FedExed to me. took about 45 days. THE KEY WORD IS UNCONTESTED NO CHILDREN UNDER 18 NO LEGAL RECORD OF SPOUSAL ABUSE ONE OF YOU NEEDS A USA ADDRESS All this information is online.

Their Country, their laws. Don't like it, don't go there. There is a reason Singapore is safe and orderly. Harsh? most certainly. However, a safe and orderly country requires harsh Governance in todays World. The Western World could learn from Singapore's laws.

How can you offer compassion to a person guilty of a premeditated violent crime that directly caused the deaths of innocent people. Give them 10 years? Twenty years? More? The victims gave all their life. Let the families be the judge and decide the punishment. Allow the guilty to choose between their type of execution with a few choices. Rope, Gun, Chemical. Take a life and forfeit yours.

Penalized for "adverting and encouraging". What a riot. Maybe the Court should stroll down SukTown late at night and read the adverts on every pub.

Often wonder, while standing in IMM line at BKK, where do the TM6'es go? Does some one file them and then stack them in a dark, dank, humid room for the rats to feed on. Or, are they entered into a computer file then burned.

Many Robinsons stores have a small selection of Thule bags and luggage. However, they are far more expensive than the same product in the Western World or online.

5555, too funny. Double dipping. The upper level lads run the brothels and stuff the THB in the car. Now they want to tax the Dildo industry so they get the THB on Both ends...per se'.

When in the last three years, or so, has anyone in current administration come close to projecting tourist numbers. Rolling a set of dice may have been more accurate.

There are 37 countries in the Americas. Which are u from ? Ive ridden my through Bkk Numerous times over the last 13 years. Never an issue except honking horns and yelling at me. I’ve been North to south and East to west borders. Never an issue. Other than people of opportunity hosing the farang.
