    Yet foreigners may only legally own condos? How do they buy villas?

    60 a month? It's Bonanza Time for RTP.

    I didn't think farangs had any.

    I thought Thai Airways was run to provide freebies exclusively to all influential Thais and their retinue?

    Living in Pattaya, I have long since given up eating anything that comes out of the sea locally!

    I read two Thai kids drown every week because so few are taught to swim.

    I'm an ex-English teacher and offered my services to AN. I've been ignored several times.

    Birth defects.

    April 1st is Big Joke's birthday!

    Their favourite position. Police only understand pictures or baht signs.

    'During the first nine weeks of 2023 alone, more than 1.32 million people in Thailand became ill because of diseases related to air pollution, according to government figures.' From UK Guardian - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/mar/27/air-pollution-chokes-thailand-as-campaigners-call-for-stricter-laws-chiang-mai What a pathetic response from the Gov. I've been here 19 years and heard it repeated EVERY year!

    Why do we get a Thai 'expert' trotted out to say the bleedin' obvious? This happens AFTER every major incident. These statements are so simplistic I fear they are written by a sixteen year old studying for the police exam!

    I have a pink receipt. It does not have a tracking number on. The shop had Thai Post in big red letters over the top. Do you think I sit making up stories? (The last bit about Dubai was to show TIT humour.)

    Traditional Only Songkran A couple of opportunities open up here. Astute business men will invest in: 1 car washing franchises as traditionally windscreens/bodywork are smeared with flour paste blinding the driver to other road users; 2 corner the market by buying defibrillators as this is the busiest period for heart attacks after being doused in ice-cold water by pranksters.

    Not surprised Thai Post has stopped concentrating on mail in favour of fruit. I paid 300 baht to send a letter to UK which never arrived. After waiting a decent length of time, I went back to the office to find it shut down & the girl who took my money may well be living in Dubai now.

    How can this be? Finnair is their National Carrier and they don't serve free drinks! You need a bank loan for a G & T!

    Swap you - my four Swedes for your dozen Chinese.

    Very lucky he didn't bite into it; he could have broken a tooth.

    They sauntered the thirty metres from the police station to the hotel.

    That will soon be the normal currency exchange rate.

    This money came from the police for his help in bringing down Chinese mafia bosses; now it will be returned to the police freshly laundered.

    He can afford to build a special jail for him as the lone prisoner with luxury quarters attached for his grandchildren. Would Yingluck be allowed to visit him?

    Safety on the roads; non-carcinogenic air; incorruptible policemen; and all the prawns you can eat.

    RTP do it on a daily basis. Soi dogs; unchecked pollution; scamming taxi drivers; it's a wonder any tourists come here.

    Importing noisy motor cyclists and exporting sexy masseuse.
