  1. What’s the matter with these bloody tourists. Didn’t they know? Pissing in public is a reserved for Thai only occupation!
  2. But they were Thai anyway so their “peckers” would be minuscule in any case.
  3. It’s typical Thailand looking at the bottom line of how much money can be made and wondering how much they can scam off. They need to consider the initial infrastructure outlay before F1 will even consider placing a venue on the shortlist and then that the average F1 return on investment is 9 years before any profits can be made. sorry Somchai this isn’t the get rich scheme for you.
  4. A broker in Udon Thani recently sold me a 12 month health insurance policy with a deductible of 100k. The policy was with Liberty Medical Group. The broker purchased through another broker MSG Brokers in Bangkok. At all times the broker knew I was in possession of a non b visa. The policy wording states the insurance satisfies the Thai Governments Covid Insurance requirements for non A and Special visa. My question is does that insurance cover any claim I may make as a non b visa holder? The broker tells me yes since it is on the proposal form and the insurers accepted me BUT neither the broker or Liberty will confirm in writing that as a non b visa holder I would be covered. Has anyone bought this policy and have they claimed? Was the claim met in full?
  5. The Thaiger ? Standards? Journalism? How can you put those three words in the same sentence?
  6. Why is it always black people who cause trouble wherever they go? Surely there must be some genuinely nice, refined black people who abhor the way their race is being portrayed. Would help if the subject didn't look like a dish mop as well. Clean yourself up !!!
  7. Related to Fat Bastard the renowned scammer?
  8. Is there a reason why you always refer to Taksin as “de facto boss cum convict etc. Etc”. Why not just “Former Prime Minister”?
  9. Maybe Doctors should probe the Mental Health of the petitioner. He seems to have a manic insistence and attraction to former Prime Minister Thaksin. It can’t be good for him to suffer this debilitating depression untreated?
  10. Oh dear oh dear, once again stop the scams, stop the rip offs and lock up Fat Jumbo the Phuket Jet Ski scammer. Screen their trials and sentencing live on CNN then maybe confidence will start to recover!
  11. Yet again a damming report on Thai education and standards. They know the answers but they don’t want to hear the answers or look at the proof. In my school one stream taught by natives has 97% proficiency in English whilst the other stream taught by non natives has a 32% ability. What do they do? Stop teaching, introduce activities which have no academic benefit, or educational achievement to bring the stronger team down. Instead of a project on say the Aboriginal art and its meanings my P5 today will be folding 3 pieces of A4 paper to make a Chefs hat! let’s look at the other benefits of native speakers, assuming a school really does want to educate its students. When a native teaches here they earn 25% of their salary in their home country. They spend their salary in Thailand, renting houses, buying cars and motorcycles which they tax and insure. Many meet partners and invest in land and homes benefitting Thai tradesmen and businesses. When an Asian native teaches here they earn 2 - 300% more than their home country. They live 3 or 4 to a room and send most of their money home. They are not motivated by a sense of achievement but purely by money. Standards are down? For sure. Ask yourself, if you lived in London and wanted to learn Thai would you ask a Thai person or a Laos person? Answer that correctly and you have your solution. It’s not too late but it soon will be!
  12. The house of Former Prime Minister General Chan O Cha at 11 infantry barracks might be available.
  13. The answer is simple. SROAS. Works everywhere. Stop Rip Offs And Scams.
  14. Is it any wonder when Thailand continues to employ low ability teachers from the Philippines. Their grammar is atrocious and their screeching extended vowel pronunciation is an insult to the language. Ask yourself Thailand that if I wanted to learn Thai in England would I use a Thai teacher or a Laoation?
