When did Brighton become a beach where nudity is OK

They should have made it 20,000 Baht - He wouldn't do this on a beach in UK - I am embarressed to admit that I am British - very disrespectful behaviour and I am not a prude - there is a time and a place - St Tropez probably - I was there in the mid 70s and camped on a nudist beach but kept my shorts on

What about the millions of older Thais who rely on going to branches to get their money - I don't think that they are going to switch to passwords and Internet banking as most don't have Internet

Is this US propoganda

Do you want censorship of what you say and write - who decides what is fake news the government - sounds like they only want to hear good news - governments that can take criticism are governments tha are healthy - 1984 George orwell - read it

My advice Exercise and better diet - no processed food - Exercise 30 minutes a day and stretching routine Statins have little effect on cholesterol - a great effect on big pharma profits Your numbers are generally very good for a man of your age' Diet and exercise - drugs have side effects that could lead to more druga

Empty planes isn't a solution

I was intrigued by the observation that illegal workers involved in the tourist industry particularly in Pattaya have a greater command of English than local workers - this reflects on the abysmal education system provided by the government with regard to English proficiency and may indicate that the government is happy that the general public have poor language skills which eases their job in saving money and thus precipitates an obediant population

Wise decision but how is he going to earn a living

Have been in Thailand continuously since 1993 - Lived In Sattahip for 29 years - Throughout that time I have always had a THai bank account I have always rented a property usually renewable yearly I have been married to a Thai woman and been divorced Last Friday I travelled to roi et province as my girlfriends family live there I had already arranged a new lease on a house in Roi Et I have a 1 year Retirement visa obtained in Pattaya last October I went to Bangkok Bank to transfer my account to the local branch in Roi Et Firstly the bank told me they can't do it until I get a form from Immigration - did that 500 Baht lighter - I asked is that the only thing i Need - she said yes that is all Next day arrived at bank with form , passport, bank book - was told by some snooty matron like woman that was not enough and that I needed the land document of my girlfriends parents - an original document - rather irrate I said what if I came alone - she said that they wouldn't give me a bank account after 30 years with a Thai bank account and a i year visa and the permission form form Immigration Anyone at there explain why this happened - JGV

i can think of many more people thaat need eradicating around the world - dogs treated well will be friends for life unlike fickle humans who are totally unpredictable - power hungry 0r silent with no personality

china believes that taiwan is a part of china and therefore he sees actions by the taiwanese government as that of a rogue state - whether i agree or not it is sending a message to the thai country to support china's stance on the island or take the oppostance in supporting the us governments claim that taiwan is an independant country

Last year had a hernia op - private room stayed 5 days 80, 000 Baht I think Maybe a few thousand cheaper -

Government's faillure to create an environment for more Pattaya visitors - males to return post Covid - stupid Covrert regs and inflation is the cause
