    I read that there were body parts of the Colombian found in the drains of the suite the "chef" was staying at. This suggests the "chef" carved his victim up in his hotel room and couldn't hide all the evidence. Atreaga's body was cut up into many pieces and distributed around Koh Phagnan. I haven't heard if the Spaniard has admitted to the crime.

    Condolences about your accident BritManToo. Hope you get well soon and can keep your spirits high. This is another reminder of how dangerous the roads are in Thailand. No one knows when it's going to be their turn for disaster.

    The sub will provide backhanders and make the Chinese happy. What more does it need to do?

    Nai Harn and Kata beaches haven't been super busy of late. Chalong circle is beginning to get busy from the Kata side. The throng hasn't hit the south part of the island yet, but we know it's coming and for residents it will be awful.

    Guys and girls there on Beach Road "human trafficking" themselves.

    I was interested in helping you. Not going to after this post.

    Amazing that the young lady chose to/could live like this. I like a clean place, and this shocks me. Hard for the landlord to even open the front door! I agree with the first poster that mental illness is likely involved.

    From his name, flight destination, and I've been "away for 4 years" this guy sounds like a Russian to me. Probably dual citizenship. Maybe Vlad can send him to the Western front.

    Why does every country destroy everywhere that is beautiful? Phuket, for sure, is getting overrun. 100 flights per day into HKT, and they want to build a second airport.

    DrJack is correct. Non B Ed stays should get a letter from the school regarding a student leaving the country for a few weeks. The school should be able to fulfill this and know about the issue. Otherwise, you will likely have some problems with immigration upon your return.

    Not your last, sure. Get a wingman and go back. And when you're in Patts act like you did 25 years ago. Pattaya is still lotsa fun, if you have some cash.

    These 3 seem like the same thing.

    This new main guy comes across as a loser. I have zero confidence that he will do anything good.

    He showed up personally just to tell him how much of a fan he was of Mr. Sen.

    Hope they lock these two up for a long time. Chinese and crime seem to go together too much these days.

    Another ridiculous idea.

    Hua Hin soon to be overrun with Kazakhs.

    I've never had a problem with Nok and I fly them when I can. Good to have competition for AirAsia.

    Expensive to have kids. There's already too many people everywhere.

    Today I noticed that my residential electricity price per kwh has increased month to month since July. No idea why the PEA kept increasing it. September > August > July.

    For a one-person stay, not a big deal. Better than walking down the hall to use a communal loo.

    The charade goes on.

    About 10 years ago I was at that place and there were Russian girls (hookers) openly drinking big beers at the Vientiane Thai embassy while getting their visas. It was just a party to them.

    Just had a house visit from Phuket Immigration police. They were checking my location as I recently started an Non O extension based on retirement. Nice people. Asked some general questions like do I rent the house, do I ride a motorbike, what's my age, what do I like to do in my neighborhood etc. Took a picture or two of me. The visit lasted 20 minutes. They also chatted with and took pictures of other farang neighbours.

    You should contact a language school where you might locate and ask them about this specific question. There have been some crackdowns. I am enrolled in a language school in Phuket now and on a retirement visa. My school teacher said that no Ed visas are being given to Chinese citizens.
