A myth that Thai women prefer older men the same as the myth they prefer farang.

If you are old, do you really think your younger gf/wife will tell you the truth?

It just happens that many Thai women will be willing to sacrifice they're own happiness and put up with the snide comments in order to take care of her family financially.

Oh My God..........................You mean its all been a Lie........

Raky--Pochentong Airport - Phnom Penh central/Riverside;

Taxi - $9

Tuk tuk - $7

Moto - $3

Wow 6 years since I have been there, and those prices have hardly changed..........or maybe I paid way tot much way back then...

Mike---get ahead of the crowd---go look at Ban Chang

Ban Chang---Village of Elephants, condos for that price on the water (no not across the road on the water) 30-40- minutes from Pattaya 90 minutes from BKK. Don't look at some of the over priced real estate adds---go there and look....lovely village ...walk along the empty beaches, eat with the locals there at night----you would think you were 1,000 KLms from BKK.

PM me if you want I know the area well---can tell you where to look, --your be over 1 mill but under 2mill for 2 rooms.

Had it been marked "gift" there is a chance, but only a chance, that it would have gone through. The error was the £80 value. That attracted the 20% import duty.
Just like in reverse, you send to the Uk over £30 (I think it is) It also attracts duty, not exclusive to Thailand, many countries have this.
Best way is to just send standard airmail and no issues, in my experience.

Things are tighter than that MJ....when I travel to the UK (3 months ago) I get a company in the USA to send me some vitamins melatonin which are not sold both here or in the UK...... my order came to £29.95

this is part of the letter received from what is now a privatized company working for the UK gov.

Invoice value  £29.95  (this included the posting fee the goods were only £19.95)

Vat £6.84

Entry Fee---£8***

Total £14.84...on a £19.95 purchase

*** This is the fee the private company gets for stopping and holding each package.

Re the not paying the fee in Thailand---you do not lose the package---This has happened to me---it is returned to the poster, as it would be if they could not find the recipient.  You would possibly get away with a gift item in the UK.

Would people care about another 10 quid on the ticket if they are covered for all medical insurance---some staying 3 months or more.

I would have thought that it was a no Brainer----Yes some people would, those in the employment of selling over priced travel insurance----

If this was a world wide scheme---(which ever country you go to your fully covered for 10 quid) it would probably be praised as a forward looking idea, but as it comes from Thailand, most farrangs will probably pan it.

Chemical castration / Hanging / shooting / 100 years in prison being sodomized ...etc.....

Well we have sorted out the penalties alright........now lets see if he is guilty.........

Unfortunately these things happen, there have been movies made about it, but it sounds like in this case the blame is easy.

Where did this happen?

Oh no steveni.....this one will be real difficult to work out--you go for a dive --come up and the boats gone.......Calling Sherlock.......................calling Sherlock Holmes please come to the phone....

The first thing that comes to mind to me would be go to the bank with the passbook and your passport and explain the problem to them. This just seems like common sense.

Wow that's a great Idea, go to the Bank...yeh---now while I have all your attention, about those shoe laces ----is it right over left, or is left first

May the Force be with you............always

It Sounds a bargain Kevin1908---& if it pleases the wife, well why not. You can always bridge the amount Paid with your Friendly Money lender--- Khun Wonga I believe he now only charges about 3% (per month that is) if the property is worth his out lay---if not then you may have to step up the interest rate up & lend from Khun Black shirt----but what the heck its is for the wife.

Cant believe the the very high quality of some posters here----it definitely beats Woman's Day-------"Just"

Thailand will not withdraw troops from the area of the Preah VIhear temple.



And here we go---so much for all those promises to accept the umpire decision etc......

you have to send your friend a copy of your credit card FRONT AND BACK....

you also have to send your friend a copy of one of your IDS...

That seems a brilliant Idea---maybe you could even CC a copy to some other people at the same time.

Just a few words NDB --try to remember them in 1-or-2 years time----- Your relationship living back there--will never be the same as here.

But I wish you lots of luck--& hope for all the best in the future.

For about the amount you have paid---I got a BUPA insurance that also covered myself & any passenger..., this was 5 years ago and after using it for a claim when I was hit by a truck,sold the bike after they repaired it & me....no it didn't include theft---sorry if I digress from the subject.

So is anyone curious about who is Deep throat here.................. Who is it that passes on what Thasin says (minutes) after he has said it to his "loyal" (?) Government members -& doesn't his party ever want to find out.

What about case 5.......

Personally I feel that in any relationship a few fatal beatings everyday doesn't hurt anyone. .............

So we don't all get to Reconcile then......................................................

I wonder if the OP's example sample size is slightly skewed.....

Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app

What do you mean Stradavarius37----that's 2 out of 2......100% correct.................

I do not know what Part of Issan you 2 guys come from--but even in the smallish town I live in there are 4 Red Light Soi's full of young Lao Girls of questionable age for 300 baht. On the other side of Issan its the Khmer girls, ---No there are No bars ---there is no pole dancing or nudity, but if you want to hear what the average Thai guy thinks about prostitution ----take a walk down some of those Soi's and ask, & yes not a Thai girl to be seen, maybe some of the posters have it correct---there are not to many Iphones to be brought from the wages there.

Just 3 more questions -- sorry-- does that..(the MB..) include a video card

Should I get the windows 8 -- read so much bad stuff about it, and when I get do get windows, some people are posting that it is best to buy the genuine version---what do you think.

Also is a separate card needed for the HMI lead to go directly into the TV.

Opps thats 4 questions----but thank you for your time.

Thank you for taking the time Phil2, I much appreciate it.
