British Couple Outraged Over £9 Tin of Heinz Beans in Thailand
BusNo8 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Don't buy it. I only purchase foreign food after it's been discounted. Full stop. I never buy any foreign food at full retail. Exist just fine on fresh Thai food -

Teen fried chicken seller resembles Blackpink’s Lisa, goes viral
BusNo8 replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
555. Yeah, I don't get the Lisa phenom. Find her talent and beauty mid. Especially talent. I don't think the young woman looks anything like Lisa in picture Thai women are so beautiful. 16 to 60 .. even after decades in E Asia - I'm still floored at how naturally attractive Thai women are. Add the makeup, clinics and minor surgery and imo have a larger number of beauties despite Korea, Japan, Chinese perhaps having the most beautiful. N S or E. Living in central Bangkok as many beauties as 70s So California. I remember a week or so ago I saw an issarn couple in the subway. They stood out bc both so dark. Both man and woman 40+ but both still very attractive. They were a great match and I just hoped there was love and good relationship bc they looked like such a great pair *Vietnam also has some stunners. -
Thailand Unveils Ambitious “Zero Dropout” Program
BusNo8 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Teachers here are absolutely worthless and I lump all (95%) of the foreign, unlicensed teachers, lazy af, incompetent in with the Thai as well. On top of that - the entire 19th C teaching model is no longer fit for purpose. It's a total waste of time. All students should be interacting with and learning online. Doubly so now with CGPT. A revolution has occurred and both Thai and farang teachers are clueless. Best students now study online + have Thai tutors. Classroom is just holding cell. The students are in pain with the BS assignments the foreign teachers force on students. They are far smarter than the braindead teachers think - they know that rubbish assignment, cobbled together in fifteen minutes and that dumbass tired worksheet will not help them learn English or much of anything. Then, these teachers howl that the students aren't doing THEIR work. Meanwhile, they pump out other work from thoughtful, earnest, dedicated teachers. It's time to stop blaming students for a teacher's incompetence. Check your child's school's onets. Go talk to their English teachers. Are you impressed? 💩 -
Foreigner criticised for hammock stunt on Bangkok billboard - video

Tiktokers= brain dead. Maelstrom of misinformation and disinformation -
Not really, imagine she's got dozens on a string online. Just plays them one at a time as they roll in. Many years ago I had a lot of gf in Pattaya. They used to hate when their dumb farang actually come visit. The money would cease those weeks, she'd be on the hook to entertain 24/7 knowing the bloke would give them nothing more than a gift /or few thousand baht at end bc they are a thing after all 😆

First, this is pure speculation. I can easily see reasoning Immigration developing the following mindset. We have a one year extension for you. It is based upon you living in Thailand. As you are in country less than half the year - de facto, you are not living in Thailand. If you are not domiciled / resident you are undeserving of a non immigrant resident visa. Nevertheless, we are a big hearted lot. We will grant your request if you file tax form in Thailand 😂 Again, conjecture, but seems an easy way to force compliance.

New BKK post article today 27 June. Seems like nothing new but solidifying what is known. Pure speculation, but not only do I expect that that immigration will do cursory check of those on long extension - I could also see them not issuing annual extension of stay for those not in country 180 days. I fully expect immigration to have some part of not enforcement but gatekeeper.

They certainly do at the schools in which they teach. That's all EP, IP programs as well as accelerated English. Not where most of you lot teach at 35k. It's so funny, the defense. I've known the better part of 100 teachers in greater Bangkok. I presume BKK is the best of the lot. I would hire only about 5-10%. You all know this well. Call the truth and insult to avoid confronting it as fact. Note: all *teachers* jump in, get hostile and defensive because it's really do true. Teachers never own up to their failures. It's not a requirement of the job. That's why it's so appealing especially overseas. Not meaning to hijack thread.

Police Raid Uncovers Child Prostitution Ring in Bangkok Karaoke Bar
BusNo8 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Don't think that such a thing in 70s California when all parties are under 18. But, to be honest I was since 15 chasing all the 17-21 yos I could score. Not really certain of the point you're making. In Thailand it's 15. Incongruent facts -
Bangkok Police Arrest Colombian Suspect Following International Manhunt
BusNo8 replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Here's another country Thailand ought to watch closely. Not much reason for them to be in Thailand in the first place -
Obviously, 2bdr doesn't exist and that is one reason you're out in another province altogether. Pinklao maybe Probably get an entire shop house out there for that money. 2bdr under 55sqm no good anyway as bdrs too small. Where's all that USDA prime steak for 250kg?

25-30k one bedroom, 45-50sqm. Close to MRT and/or BTS. Depends what you consider nice. Nothing jaw dropping, but a peg or two above typical

Thailand has it all now or at least Bangkok. Proper whisky or whiskey Shave cream Antiperspirant deodorant Immersion coil 😁 3-4 boxer short, 3 shorts, four shirts. A bathing suit if you have one. A quality, (waist), thin money belt. If English, brown diabetic sauce If English - stilton cheese. If English, doubt you'll need large size condom but maybe ?? bring from home. If English do yourself a favor and wear proper shirt not a T or especially team jersey. Something for upset stomach you know and trust Buy a mid phone here, anything else you need. It's all here now. Don't bring sunscreen. Buy Japanese or Korean here. Much better for sun and skin. Do not wear cargo shorts, singlets or bath flip flops anywhere*

Well, foreigners *teaching* English is an absolute fail. That's especially the case for women. Vast majority of this lot tosses a worksheet at the students, allows copying and then assigns completion grade.
