Aussie dad gets into fistfight with monkeys on Ko Phi Phi in Thailand
xtrnuno41 replied to webfact's topic in Krabi News
Saw a movie on that. So i never want to be in Lopburi. You have my respect, you even want to stay there. But mountain temple in Prachuap Khirikan is also not that nice, especially the parking place they made for it with a fountain. No one parks there, it is a domain for the monkeys playing in the fountain. But Lopburi is indeed quite horrible. -
This year is snake year for me in Thailand. First come to mom, where the dog had find a snake. It was black and gently I forced him out the house, he was widening his neck, so that would make it a cobra. Not according to mom, but for me it was. Gladly it was not real big and it has been the first time, it ever happend at her house. She lives quite sometime over there. My wife found last year a piece of skin, hanging on the roof(?!). Further no trace of snake, maybe it is hidden on the roof. Until now it hasnt fall down or shown its self. I was more worried when i was cutting grass with the bushmower, metal cutter, all at a sudden, a snake was flying through the air and when it felt, it was immediately in attack mode and slashing out to me. My mower hit the snake. After the attack it went in "hunting mode". I could see him clear and later searched for it on internet, a Malaysian pit viper. Probably as it was hit by the mower, it was in a shock mode and with a rake, I could fish it up and deported it on the other side of the wall. It didnt look wounded and was quite surprising after it had been hit by my mower. Really exciting moments for me. They say, snakes move away if you make noise and my 2 stroke machine made more then enough noise. But never the less, it stayed for a free flight in the air and giving me the creeps. Im still cutting, but now even more aware they could be there. Never would have expected to meet one. Too many snakes this year for me. So you are cutting grass as well? Be very aware. I rather meet a python then the above mentioned ones.

xtrnuno41 replied to webfact's topic in Krabi News
when they visited a beach notorious for monkey attacks in the Ko Phi Phi Islands. Of course then you go with your 1 year old son, to see. How dumb, I guess the guy was an influencer. Oh, he was (sarcastic) . Then all is explained, nice holiday movie to show, to put your son's life at danger on your web site. I have some terms to show what I think about the guy, but it will be deleted. -

Well here I first saw a Ford Thunderbird, in front of it was a VW bus. Probably in driving condition as some time later they were gone. But i saw even an older VW bus with about 13 windows. and a very old Mazda , once used as songtaew, mintgreen, i guess the 70 ties. Standing idle under a roof. -

Yup true, but never the less you can send them back instead of torturing them. Maybe there are no humans in Australia? -
Did you ever heard or even think about a war without crime? There are even countries with no war and crime, meaning all countries which dont have war. How many people deny their believe? You shall not kill. It is in any religion. About Russia and (war) events, i have even a total different vision. Im not pro Russian but sure aswell not pro USA. And this event, just a stupid drone, I think is very questionably.

Help requested- Long stay Thailand.
xtrnuno41 replied to Scouse123's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Buy an Elite 20 years 1 million baht, no health insurance, no questioning about income or money on the bank. Depending on where you are living then in Thailand, they can also help with 90 report. Still to be done, but nowadays lot is done online. But just need passport and card every time you contact immigration. -
Once I asked "Siam Legal" advocate office, what was the definition of work in Thailand. I got zip, nada, silence, no answer. I think, it means, if you do work and annoy a Thai and he makes a complaint at immigration, you could be done. Working for nothing(volunteer), you must have a permit. In the absurd situation, technically, also it means your heart cant beat, as it is working? Once i met a Canadian in CM, had a gf. Gf asked if he wanted to help to replace a tv. He refused, as it was working and he didnt want to loose his visa. I couldnt tell if he was serious or not, but later I laughed about it. However....?

If you think straight forward, maybe not. However im thinking out of the common box and then situation could be different. I could tell you, my thoughts, but then have to send a private message. I put up the questions, to make people maybe think otherwise about this. As situations in this world not always seem to be what is.

South Korea Denies Blacklisting Thais From 4 Northeastern Provinces
xtrnuno41 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Maybe Thailand better prepare for South Koreans to come to Thailand. Especially office workers have to start working in a 69 hour/week shift, new government proposal. Red this morning in MSN news. Meaning working from 9am till 00:00. AND no extra paying! Now they already work 52 hour/week. It is all about shortage of people for work, so a bunch of Thai workers would be appreciated, I guess. If in offices it is needed, so with other work would be the same. Even in "my"country we have a shortage of serving people in restaurants, bars, dishwashers and many more. Well Thailand also has absurd working hours, especially officers, meaning people working in offices of government. Also to mention they MUST attend weirdest events in private times. Like remembering a king from the past. They MUST wear on occasions, a white, green, yellow or whatever color clothes, to be bought by them selves. -
If I look at pics and recalling it in memory, it must have been the private airport then. I see pics of interior and that triggered it in my mind. However indeed open already for long time. Have no clue why we landend there, im sure it is/was 2009 , I ended up there for a short while, like I said for coffee and pastries, only! Or the flight was new and therefor? As Pattaya didnt had a commercial airport, it was a military thing then. I found that flight coincidentally on internet, as i was sure Pattya didnt had commercial airport, booked with the extra, however not mentioned on internet. Never the less enjoyed the flight and visit.

second airport? Crazy. I remember 2009 when airport was just opened? I did a flight Phuket-Pattaya and then we landed on Samui, as they wanted to show the airport. I was amazed, we just got out for a cup of coffee or whatever and some pastries. And then we went onward again to Pattaya. Must say I loved to see it then, it really looked nice, wonder how it is today. But second one? Then better do a train connection again (of course electric) with the bridge. Surat Thani airport, Surat Thani city and then cross the water to Samui. However with the remarks made, I see the bridge building is also far away. They made the budgets, but no effort to get it there? However they got the first airport then? I guess the power cables will be then another problem which will not be solved shortly. An all-in-one bridge would be a great connection. Train, cars and power cable all in one. I bet the Chinese can built it !

One Winner Gets Record 102 Million Baht in Government Lottery
xtrnuno41 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
No clue how Thai lottery works, but in other countries it is almost impossible to win. Maybe I should try next time in Thailand. Or would they say, you cant win, you are a farang. -
Ah, ok, so it is for capacity increase, but then where do you connect it to? You need a powerplant to generate the increase of power. That one is also included in the budget? It is quite a budget. And like Stocky said, wouldnt it be wise to use the bridge as a carrier for the cable? Make a space available to put cable in, even can create additional space for maybe another cable in the future? Engineers need to get back to drawing board then. If the 2 projects would have been more "communicating", it would have already saved money.

Like to introduce this one, Harry Muskee band. Harry was already active in the 6 ties, band called Cuby and the Blizzards. In 1994 he made this. He died 2011. You do have to love a guitar solo as there is a real long one in it and i sure love it, player Erwin Java. There are soooo many songs I love, could have placed SRV for instance. -
