maybe look in the samui directory??

Mig, can I start a thread where to meet swingers?

Just do a google search... there is a resort in Nothern Thailand run by a british couple offering this service

Still not working

Any idea when the arcade will be up and running again????

2 weeks now with no fix - does anybody read these posts?

Yes, don't worry.

Support is still working on the problem.

Thanks for the update

my wife never went to uni...... but the girls i play around with are still there

I think it would be a case if they are serious about helping the people and tourism of samui and not there own pocket ....

if you are using a credit card, you are fully protected as if you where at home..... wouldnt worry about a thing

Is it Debit or Credit Card???

ID card is all you need, i am a foreigner and i do not need my passport to travel domestic, only need to show my driving license ( Thai Driving License )

OP & Mods:

I suggest to merge this thread with another thread already running since July 16th, about the debacle of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the largest US Morgage Banks, saved by the government) now followed by more bad news about American Financials like Lehman Brothers, Merryll Lynch, AIG (the largest insurer in the world) and WaMu, America's largest savings bank and the like.

What do you think ?...The end is not yet in sight and otherwise we end up with many different topics about financial debacles and bankruptcies in the US and elsewhere.

Maybe just change the topic title ?

I would have added this to the topic http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/Fanni-and-Fr....html&st=50 , but Fanni and Freddie do not have to much impact on Thailand, but Lehman Does....

My fear of this news is Lehmans current assets in Thailand which run into the 10's of billions of THB !!!!!

There Bangkok office which is Headed by Japan may or maynot be affected.... as Lehman own and operate alot of Hotels in Thailand as well as dictate alot of the land prices here ( As they currently own some of the most prime land in Bangkok, Koh Samui and Phuket ! ) , thus if they do go bankrupt and have to sell of there land at VALUE price, surly that would cause an economic crash in land value within Thailand ????

It is the same with AIG as well, as if you take note of Koh Samui, all the prime land is BANKED by investment firms... now if they have to sell off at the REAL MARKET value , how does that leave the averge Joe investor who has purchased at the current land value, but now is being undercut by the investment firms???

2. Take Dad out drinking on occasion, and whoring on his birthday.

:cheesy:

and the trouble is it is so true

I am sure the Samui Express will report the winner

But it would also be a nice side line article to see how much each person was paying for votes over votes actually marked for that candidate

well there is no updates on google at all, the only people who would no are the british embassey i suppose

LEHMAN Brothers, one of the world's largest investment banks, announced today it plans to file for bankruptcy protection - a move expected to rock global financial markets. The stricken firm said it intends to file a petition under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code.

Catastrophic

The measure usually allows companies to reorganise their contractual and debt obligations under the supervision of a bankruptcy court.

The bank was close to collapse last night after Barclays abandoned plans to buy it.

Lehman said in a statement: "The board of directors of Lehman Brothers Holdings International authorised the filing of the Chapter 11 petition in order to protect its assets and maximise value."

Lehman Brothers is America's fourth biggest investment bank but last week announced a quarter-year loss of £2.2billion.

In the UK, Lehman employs staff at its regional headquarters in Canary Wharf, London, as well as its office in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. Globally the group has around 25,000 staff.

Barclays had hoped to cherry-pick its profitable parts.

But bosses walked away from talks because they could not get guarantees from the US government and were worried about being lumbered with potentially huge payouts.

Another possible buyer, the Bank of America, also decided against a move.

One financial expert said: "This could be catastrophic and lead to the implosion of the banking sector."

Fears deepened yesterday when US stocks tumbled, pointing to a sharply lower Wall Street opening today.

In a separate move to help shore up the financial markets, Bank of America has announced a $50billion (£28bn) deal to buy Wall Street giant Merrill Lynch, which has also been stung by the credit crunch.

Lehman is the latest financial institution to fail.

Struggling mortgage giants Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were taken over by the US government last week.

But Treasury secretary Hank Paulson has ruled out a rescue of Lehman Brothers.

The overnight developments are set to put financial stocks under pressure when the London Stock Exchange opens for business later this morning.
