Prevent your retirement visa in Thailand from expiring
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
meeting the finacial requirements ............................ was that a joke an agent and a backhander renders such requirement redundant -
a good start would be forcing those that have been in charge these last 13 years to disclose their earnings while in office and where the money came from, all police and army high ranks can do the same being able to hide it does not inspire confidence does it ? - one of the first things Prayut did when he took office - remove the need for finacial disclosure - that is a red flag right there

I had to net off my balcony, they were nesting there and had made a massive mess, they are persistant I will grant them that and once they have established a home are very difficult to convince otherwise, they still find gaps in the net but are slowly learning this is not a safe place for them to be, slowly they are getting the hint

Finnish man accused by neighbours of insulting Thai people
smedly replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
They literally expect you to pay whatever they ask and when you ask for the price you are insulting them and taking the conversation down a direction they don't want to go (face saving terratory) especially if they are intending to rip you off, of course this doesn't happen in supermarkets 7/11 etc were prices are clearly displayed but think of the many places foreigners go in Thailand were prices are not displayed - mom&pop stores being one of them - bars/entertainment venues are other good examples - a falang asking a price of something is treated as an insult not a right especially if by design (not in all cases) their intention is to rip you off -

smedly replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
been that way for a long time, as long as you empty your wallet often they will tolerate you - they expect foreigners to spend and even pay extra for things, best policy is I have found is make sure you are clear about the price of something before making a purchace especilly in establishments that don't have it displayed - they will make it up on the fly -

Pattaya Police Assist Intoxicated Foreigner Who Stabbed Himself
smedly replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
"stabbed himself". ...............yeah right -
or stay at home, I don't mind songkran for 1/2 days but this 7 day thing is hurting trade every year, people either leave pattaya or don't go out or go out very late (like me) to avoid it, they are shooting themselves in the foot, every venue I went too late on was literally empty, how many years will it take before they realise that 7 days of this madess is hurting business - it is obvious to most people why aren't they getting it

Songkran to generate billions in revenue for Thailand
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I know more people that leave than stay, I also know people that stay at home instead of going out - one day of this ## is ok but in Pattaya it goes on for 7 days - it really is not a nice place to be my observation is that business takes quite a hit during this time, the exact opposite of what the OP is claiming- 19 replies
