Korat Restaurant Chief Laments: Economy Slumps, Customers Dwindle
Food is definately getting more expensive for a lot of people. I am amazed that our local Moo Deng / Khao Man Gy shop can still keep prices under 50 baht. By somehow managing this they are picking up more customers who have been priced out of similar places .

Car tents and Commission for sell a car?
If you know them and trust them some will offer this service. We used a tent owner to renew our annual car tax to save us the hassle of going ourselves so we got to trust him. Later I had a car that was past it's prime and beginning to rack up repair bills. I gave it to him to sell for me. The deal I offered was he could keep any sum over 60,000 baht he could get. He managed to sell it within a month and I think he managed to get 70,000 for it. I was glad to see the back of it as it was spending more time off road than on it.

What do you miss most about your home country after permanent move to Thailand?
Long long walks / hikes admiring the beautiful English countryside, woodlands and hills without breaking into a sweat after a hundred meters. Miss a decent library too. Decent sausage sandwich with Daddys sauce.

Bangkok Teen Fatally Stabbed After Being Confronted Over Belt
A life for a life. You kill somebody , young with a whole life in front of them , then you should expect to face the death penalty. Extenuating circumstanses offer the only chance of a reprieve , ( eg , the victim raped and tortured your younger sister or something equally wicked )

' Previous governments have rejected calls to uprate frozen pensions, citing the cost as a barrier.
