  1. If you plan to go to Hua Hin I wont mention a figure....I'd say as a friend, better to forget it and go some place up north in Udon Thani where prices are far cheaper, people more humain and friendly and the girls are hotter and cheaper to maintain.
  2. The best political allies of Trump were Biden and Obama. Due to all their absurd policies (biden-obama etc)...people just got fed up. Thus even those who despise Trump, (like me), turne to vote for him ultimately. And it's like that in many countries. People are just fed up the with pro migrant, pro climate, pro ukraine issues and spending. So what do they do ? They vote far right. When you see people of foreign descent in europe, from the middle east or Africa who are settled and well integrated in Europe...when you see the mexicans or other nationalities, who are well integrated in the USA........when you also see them voting for the far right or for Trump as they are also fed up...it's maybe time to think differently, instead of wasting time giving out against Trump or what ever...
  3. The ray ban Meta is to hit the market by end 2025. Full internet and AI, but my interest is for the instant translation when interacting with a foreigner. Will be very useful in Thailand mainly in those moments when you have a builder or contractor or a worker who suddenly will splurt out the usual "huuh ?", pretend not to suddenly understand english any more when challenged....you just take out your glasses and can have a conversation in their native language. Far more practical then google translate that often does not properly use the right lexical or syntax. Thank you.
  4. Totally absurd. Encouraging booze sale will only create more tensions, trouble and will make the quality tourists with money, go some place else. Nobody wants to have to deal with drunks all around when in a foreign country. The falangs who drink like camels are not those who spend the most. It's the house owners, condo owners who are the biggest spenders. Not the junkie tourists comming over to smoke pot and get drunk on cheap beer.
  5. In the year 2025, the proper rate of the Thai Bhat must be revised. Any foreigner who gives 1 Euro in Thailand must get no less the 40 THB. Currently the THB is overrated. Maybe just to allow all the hi-so's to quickly take their bhat out of Thailand and get more foreign exchange to be put in the foreign bank account some place in Asia or in Switzerland.
  6. Are you a building contractor, house projet developper, salesman, a business owner or similar by any chance ? 🤔
  7. Very true for the automatic gates. But one needs to argue a bit with the usher pushing people towards the automated gates on departure from BKK airport. This is going to be another fine mess as immigration will obviously see a new opening to make fuss and harass the foreigner a bit more in Thailand due to the lack of a departure stamp. India also has great visa incentives for upto 5 years and none of the absurd requirements that Thailand imposes for long stay visas. The price of the long stay indian visa is also far less and one can see that India is now much more advanced and developped in many cases, compared to Thailand.
  8. The European Union need a Trump. Europeans would give anything to have him run the UE. Europe is destroying itself. Slowly and surely.
  9. 1. close the bank account 2. only bring in cash 3. become a winterbird and dont' stay more then 180 days 4. start looking around in other more foreigner friendly countries in Asia or India
  10. Biden was 10 times worse and has left a disastrous heritage of wars and belligerence all over. No to mention the hateful sanctions against Russia that have plunged the prosperity in mainland Europe. Fyi, europeans in majority support Trump and were just fed up with the tricks and politics of Biden.
  11. Is this still a Thai related forum or has it become a propaganda support for all the co-funding environmental wokes giving out all over against Trump ?
  12. However she is one of a real hottie, no denying that...😜
  13. Will the illegal or legal drugs also be banned ? As they cause as much havoc as to the drunks all over..
  14. With the new tax laws pending ? No way I'm ever going to even have my name on any such long term visa. How to prouve you did not stay more then 180 days ? As even the airport departure stamp now does not exist if they push you through the automated gates on departure like it happened few weeks ago ? Sure it's stored in some database etc etc etc etc...but catch any tax official being that efficient to sort out a mess with a falang in Thailand...Sorry, no way.
  15. I have never, never used any Cloud rubbish to store data. Nothing like the good old usb key and it even does the job for the iphone backps.
