I think alot of thais have a I'M THAI AND YOURE NOT!!! attitude and dislike others to various degrees from there

China air lines flys to LAX and Vancover BC, theres a number to call for reservations in Asia check the website for the number they were pretty helpful and might be able to help you get the best deal BKK LAX VAN BKK

if they ask just say you are leaving overland

sounds like a lot of perfectly good tea money going up in smoke

check dentalsmilepattaya.com, had rootcanals caps and cavity repairs for a good price Dr Cherry is an english speaking thai woman , one year so far for me and no problems

Bor Pen Ynang bar is fun, lots of girls there, I heard rumors that Lunar disco at Don Chan palace is under new ownership and may not be afterhours spot anymore but don't know for sure, Galaxy and khop chai dou bars have live music, Samlo bar is a sports bar/ pickup bar, disco and 2 or 3 other bars behind the novotel hotel, meena disco is fun, sornedeth club is gay bar, lots of good restaurants

getting 50% when divorcing is better than you'll get in thailand I think, on the bright side getting a lao style house and adding a kitchen and bathroom electrical and AC, that house will double in price as there are so few around

I've stayed at Diana oasis too, its on Soi Bukkao just north of soi honey inn, staff is great, good restuarant, 7-11 right next door, good cheap thai food right across the street, easy walk to central mall, small kitchen with refer and microwave, 2 pools, free breakfast, free movie rentals, reasonable prices cash only, with deposit, no joiner fees, mostly a long stay by the month place but will rent a room short term if they have one, I'll be back next time in Pattaya, I stayed in C block, tower rooms look nice thou more expensive, email Meow at diana-oasis.com

I think you cannot own the land but you can own the building but out of the ordinery, not many guys try, most do it thru the GFs family, you can lease property and do improvements (build or add on) I know a couple guys who have remodeled lao houses (add bath and kitchen) in Vientiane there are a couple of new Moo Bahn type housing projects one down past Don Chan Palace, but aswer your question no its probably not as easy as thailand unless your married to a lao girl

Soooo wrong, nice way to get your name and photo in the newspaper

just up the street from tiger golf towards 3rd rd is bunker bar, I played with those guys when I was there and rented clubs from tiger golf who was not doing trips during low season, on soi Bukkao at Diana estates couple doors north of the 7-11 the rabbi at elephant bar does golf dates too 3-4 days a week if you want to get in on the pot be able to show a handcap or play scatch

When you organize your evening so you don't miss your favorite Thai soup opera

if you are killing time try the massage place on the 3rd floor by door 8 good shoulder and back massage for a fair price

I understand there is a new golf course in Luang Prabang too, but its 3000 baht plus to play there I don't have a link, maybe someone here else does

glad to see you made it up there I think you'll like it, I did, it will be better after the grass fills in, difficult to find course though

aI had this happen to me too, Kasicirn bank branch on soi Bukkuo only place I used it, never left my sight, couple weeks later got transactions in Moscow, my bank took the hit but pissed me off, and can't figure how the did it, be careful it happens

I for one got approval from the naibann and paid a fee to both the naibann and the district office 350000 kip to both, built a building pad with import fill 18 mtr by 27 mtr 1 meter up 9 million kip for trucked in dirt tractor to spread and compact and smoothed off, I thought it was a good deal and a good job, hope to start after the rainy season, got a quote for a water well for 5 million kip complete with pump tank everything

a couple more updates KM 6 Vientiane golf club is now 115000 kip during the week for 9 holes, course is in the best shape Ive seen it, played Lao Inter again, there is a sign for Lao Inter at Luang Prabang rd and there is road construction on the road all the way to the course, wouldn't recommend going on a motorbike, alternatively you can take Kaolieo village rd past the paved rd dirt rd over a small bridge throu Ban Mai just past a village temple right turn at power pole marked km23 about 5 kms past Tadmoon waterfalls another 1km left turn at the sign for the course, again only a coulpe other groups playing and enjoyed it more knowing the course a little bit, either way tou go its a rough track the road is pretty rought both directions

buy a Hobo map of VTE at either of the minimarts downtown vientiene golf club and km14 (lao cc) are clearly shown and indexed asean games course it not but its right past the new national stadium a right turn

I went up to the new Lao Inter golf course, you drive out Laung Prabang road past the airport about 6 kms as soon as you pass the right turn that takes you towards the university ( its the main road and has signs for various places on the raod and a police box) no more than 500 meters left turn paved road and just stay on this road for a I guess 6 kms (we got lost and backtracked a couple times) past Ban Champa another 1 km or so right turn theres a sign for Lao Inter golf course and follow it back, Its not officially open yet and the course shows it the grass is thin with soft sandy dirt but its nice much like Dansavanh every hole has the bush on both sides narrow fairways and many bunkers greens are nice interductory price is 200000 kip $25 including caddy, it has a 680 yard par 6 and 1 green with a sand trap in the middle of it, we played on a monday mornng early and literally were the only 2 people to play all day!!!! we will play again this week and get a better feel for the place, it is out in the boonys thou difficult to explain where you want to go it would be easier to tell a driver that you want to go to Tadmoon waterfalls its less than 500 metrs from there, if you have a hobo map the turn is right above the note showing red roofs police box, that 3 hole course is on a lao military base, callao

Lao CC has raised its prices to 300000 kip weekdays and 350000 on the weekends and the starting people on 1 and 10 format is only on the weekend, very nice place to play a round, I did find Lao Inter golf course and am going up to play today and will report back after

yes youth garden is now lao country club and yes it is nice, I am going to try to get up to this new course next week if I am lucky maybe I can be one of the first to play it, I'll report on it after I go thanx for the link

Dr Cherry did a good job for me

I'll find out what I can about that place and post it in a couple weeks, SEA course is a long ride from that side of town doubt if II'll get over there easier to run up to dansavanh for the day on the shuttle, or I really like lao cc and vientiane gc should be fun
