  1. They (I assume you meant 'tourists') are in for a shock then! Bad news always travels, usually fast imo.
  2. And it's not exactly good optics for a tourism hub, hoping to regain its position.
  3. Actually, air pollution isn't as bad this year- yet anyway. Obviously some places are relatively free particularly in the south, but that hardly lessens the extent of the issue in other regions.
  4. I suppose they'll have to do just that if they want to get him back home. His family and friends still have the right to ask for donations from well wishers. Like I said if someone doesn't want to help- that's fair enough, but why all the blaming, etc.
  5. Taking it at face value, it says : 'The ordeal sparked a desperate plea for help as his family grapples with the overwhelming financial strain.' You may be well off, but most people aren't- especially these days.
  6. Most people go through life having severely messed up once or twice, but hopefully get off lightly. He was in Thailand living the Thai way. What a tragedy! I hate it when posters start treating victims like they are idiots, or scammers, or worse. How about just saying nothing! Ok you don't want to pay it- that's alright- end of.
  7. I thought people didn't die of the asthma attack but rather an underlying health condition they also might have, such as pulmonary disease. Asthma must be truly frightening. RIP.
  8. No money. No insurance. Not sure he'll be able to travel back either without special considerations which will cost.
  9. Wages are low, thus, people can't afford to take the jobs.
  10. I think you, or the current owner, but most likely you will have to assume/ pay the debt before sale can go ahead.
  11. Could encourage sellers to lower the price by 10 baht.
  12. It's as bad as I've ever known it and I've been here 20 years. Millions of ordinary people are just not making enough money to pay the bills, so domestic spending will be a real drag on the economy. Add to that low tourist numbers and poor exports....
