  1. I understand that I just keep a copy of my passport and arrivalstamp in my pocket.Anyway in my 76 trips to Thailand i never get stopped and had to prove anything.Just hotels asking for passport.
  2. I mean Philippines required at least 72 hour before arrival there.Not Thailand.
  3. I had plan to go from Bangkok to Manila last year When they also demand this s..t i changed my mind. They make so silly rules that upset tourists.
  4. When i lived in Thailand my work schedule was 4-6 weeks on and off in another countries. I worked as a offshore seaman.I had never ever problems when i arrived Thailand.I was married and had kids there at that time.They asked me sometimes why im coming so often and i just explained them and it was ok. I have never been told to prove return tickets.Last time they asked where i will stay and i named the hotel and the officer just said ok.When i extensed my visa in Bangkok for 30 days more they asked where i stay..name and roomnumber at my hotel.I told the lady and she said good.Get my stamp and left the immigration.
  5. U suppose to trust the agent and the lawyer.Anyway TIT
  6. I listen to the story.I don't understand why she carry 2000 baht and 450 euro and her passport with her. All together about 17.000 baht in value.Stupidity!
  7. The takeout im used to go hand in hand with me to my hotel.Many different dishes.
  8. Thanks for the good advice.I will tell her next time.
  9. Stay in my country.I really dont like songkran.For me its a nightmare. Many years ago i headed to mochit bus station middle of songkran day.On my way to surin.I was told i had to wait for my bus until 5 am next day.I just went back to sukumvit and had fun.The bus started about 5 am and i fell asleep right away.I woke up after 7 hours and thought i was near surin.I get shocked when i realized we just arrived saraburi .took 15 hours before we arrive surin.They said it was about 80.000 people travel from mochit that day.
  10. About 10 years ago i sat in my garden in surin with a cold beer.Suddently a pickup stopped outside. 7-8 young thais came inside my garden with sticks and machetes screaming like h... They was on a mission to take a foreigner.Well..after a short while they find out that I wasnt the person their looking for.They apologize and left after few minutes.They was looking for a foreigner who had knocked down a girl in a local karaoke.I don't know if they found him.Anyway it was a scary moment.Must be careful what u doing and don't go around playing tough.
  11. A friend of me who passed away some years ago touched the butt of a flight attendant on thai Airways get a big problem when arrived Bangkok.He was arrested and was brought to police station first and the same day to court. He was fined 150.000 baht and almost all that money was given to the flight attendant. He was not banned from thai Airways after that.He never told his thaiwife that but she find the papers and she was NOT happy.Sadly he drunk himself to death because he was an alcoholic.RIP.
  12. Thailand want admit that the tourism dropping alot.Safety concern and prices make the tourists to go to other countries.I was in a bar in sukumvit and they asked for 220 baht for a small Heineken.Thats more then i pay in my country.Food is still cheaper.Sometimes i just buy a meal from streetwendors.Tasty and cheap food. Its a big pricegap between ex Bangkok/hua-hin and Phuket.When I visit esan i normally go to the local market and buy food.Anyway i was shocked when the price for pork chops was almost double the price in Europe. When i traveling from Bangkok i use taxi and have the driver to wait for me a day or two in esan.Thats is not expensive and i feel safer.I use the driver to take me around and we stop and have fun some places.Of course i buy food for him and let him stay in a resort or at a hotel.I normally use the same driver.
  13. This is what one of my mistress want to do..but i dont take a chance. But we did it in public toilet at a shoppingmall and in a toilet in a massageshop. Hope her husband never find out.
  14. Mostly business and real estate and i guess many shady things.
  15. Im so skinny that i think i could get 100% discount.
  16. The chosen ones think they can do whatever they want.
  17. What an amazing idea..i dont think that will go in Thailand favour. Trump is not THAT stupid.
  18. The tourism dropping alot now but they want admit it Just talk BS as usual. Its allways about the billions of baht this and that will bring in to the country.
  19. Even they believe that take a covidvaccine the government secretly will inplant a device that allows them to follow u 24/7.
  20. Trillions of dollars that US will never ever get able to pay back Not even the interests.
  21. China ows the most of the US dept so Trump better be careful.He migth get more then he asking for
  22. According to the tariffs he really must love Russia..north korea and Belarus.He love dictatorship.
  23. I understand.What a difficult system.When my 2 kids who at that time stayed in Thailand needed new passport it only took a week before their new passport arrived my embassy.
  24. Sorry, but dont u have a British embassy in Bangkok that would help u? If i had a problem like this my embassy would help me out about this
  25. When i lived in surin years ago in the house i build for only 350.000 baht i could spend as little as 5000 baht a month.Of course a quiet life then.Stayed home everyday and we had rise and chicken and pigs. BUT I have spend alot more on a funny nigth in Bangkok.I get a barbill about 70k for one night.I rang the bell several times but that was my choice.My pension is good.I get about 125 k a month.(baht) Sometimes i take 2 weeks just relaxing and don't go to bars.Sometimes visit thai friends and other times they visit me Then we share bills.
