Unfortunately for some reasons the big blue buses have been displaced by these minivans. That doesn't mean you have to be forced into one of these sh*t boxes on wheels driven by whackos on bad speed. Obviously you are planning a trip South. It's one line so look into the train and you can start from Pattaya. https://www.thailandtrains.com/buy-train-tickets-from-bangkok-to-chumphon/

Oh so that means they could no have been in the bar together. Why don't read the follow up . By the way wt... Is your agenda here. Covering for the island lowlifes ?

Whats even more amazing is the reading comprehension /distortions around here. Never ever have said ,,"only in Thailand" . Just calling spades spades: Even Stevie Wonder could see something very wrong going on here.

And then put up with this?

Of course it works. A couple posters here will give you everything else and a song except the solution.

What's missing in Jomtien is a go go bar right on Beach Rd. This seems to be an overlooked opportunity. That is a small classic style go go. No moonscapes, no giant gorillas . And some classic music the girls can dance to. There are many locations available.

Bull sh*t. All talk no walk. I went to city hall last week. Made complaint form including map. Two days later dogs still around. So I had a Thai call the number given 038 111826 which does connect with the right dept. and complain. Still no action taken

And then there was the deliberate destruction of the promenade by city hall. They and their "influencers'' could not have that nice scene along the beach where foreigners enjoyed meeting the local women. Take a look at before and the sh*tshow now.

These people have the motive and the means to screw you over one way or another. Don't give them the opportunity.

So US '$ reserves will be worthless in a few months according to you. And that is why Thailand is buying baht with dollars in order to artificially keep the baht overvalued. Ok I will believe anything you say. https://www.reuters.com/article/economics-dollar-reserves-idUSKCN2LY1O2

I agree and all of the above in a one km radius. Thailand has the complete package. But it's just a matter of time before Vietnam displaces Thailand. And that includes FDI manufacturing for export.

That's right all these Thais on the beach yesterday and only a few jet skis . The game is finally over for these jerks. Schadenfreude

I wouldn't bet the farm on that

There have been jet skies on the main beach for months . So what's new here besides the new daily bs

Its really amazing how these thai apologists can't stop with their: "it happens everywhere"- Ad Nauseam.

No prizes for guessing the real reasons companies set up shop here

So foreign currency reserves dropped 5.7% in April. as the bank of Thailand spent about $12.5 billion to prop up , I mean "manage" the baht. At this rate more than half their foreign currency reserves will be gone in a year. Hello 1997 parties over. 42b/$

From link above. They may not have been an ongoing couple but just were together in the bar . So one scenario has this local lowlife hasseling the girl. So David steps in and an altercation starts.

This was not a random attack. Very most likely one of these connected lowlife locals in that bar tried to hit up on the girl. Then the her boyfriend reacted against this local for good reason but poor judgement. So when they left the bar... Another take away here: Do not place yourself anywhere there at thai males drinking whatever. Also I have never ever seen any kind of report at all about what was going on in that bar between the couple and the local lowlifes??

Sure it was bad judgement to be flashing gold . But this is strongarm robbery by criminal lowlife locals against two tourists. So I would rather blame the city and so called police for their inaction in patroling and preventive action rather than the victims. Unlike the US where someone's civil rights are more important than your safety, here there is nothing stopping the authorities from rounding them up. And taking them away. Fascism is not all bad.

Unfortunately with over $200 billion in foreign currency reserves they can run this baht overvalued game for a long time. The same groups that benefit from overvalue are also In position to "manage" the baht. Not only can they buy property in London on the cheap - the added plus here is the hardship on foreigners the overvalued baht causes . And it's no secret that the elites do not want foreigners coming over buying up girls on the cheap. Ill let the economists and socialologists comment on how sustainable this policy is .

We will see how that works out for them. Read the article. Hello 1997
