Tourism Thailand Vows to End Dual Pricing Amid Growing Tourist Backlash
barrybike replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The same pricing should be for everyone , Thailand should be no exception to this If Thai people were charged double in other countries when on their holidays thet would no like it either , I used to question my wife on this over the years and she always said sure you don’t pay tax in Thailand that’s why entry to national parks etc are more for us foreigners compared to Thais , Thailand should move with the times & treat everyone the same regarding pricing -
Travel Pattaya Faces Mixed Reactions Amid Decline in Chinese Tourists
barrybike replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Pattaya was fun back 20 years ago , now it’s completely over run with Indians & Russians , back over 20 years ago it was mostly Europeans & Americans & British , there was a nice laid back vibe to the place where people knew everyone in their own areas that you frequented like going down to you local pub basically , Chinese you’d only see them when the big busses would pull up & do their tour & buffet to eat that’s it they would never be see spending other than that where as like the rest of us it was out drinking from evening to nearly morning or as long as you could stay going , we were spending money but things were way cheaper back then too , prices of drink down walking street now can cost even more than Europe for a small bottle of beer etc so many Europeans are choosing places like lanzarote solou Tenerife for their holiday destination, i was there in January for 1 night I couldn’t believe how many places that have been taken over by Indian people around beach road & second road , it looked like they had a 80 % majority of establishments there , not the place for me anymore but maybe I’m getting older & like the quiet life more nowadays but aside from that it’s a different place completely to what it used to be & its mostly down to the different people I’ve mentioned that have taken it over in massive numbers -

Tourist Brawl on Phuket’s Bangla Road Sparks Online Outrage - video
barrybike replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
100 % agree sadly why it’s a place I’ve no intention of visiting anymore either , there’s too many other nice places down south to visit without all the hassle , it was nice 20 years ago but now no thanks, Pattaya is gone the very same too !! -
I remember over 20 years ago Pattayas tourists were mostly American & European , Indians had their area down around the vc hotel & the far left side end of walking street, but now the Indians are the majority from beach road to second road , Indian businesses every where every second place , still plenty of Russians around too but Phuket seems to be their favourite place , changed times

Beloved Brit found dead in Thailand hotel room
barrybike replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Everyone has different beliefs I suppose I was just saying that’s the traditional thing that older folk do they are not into cremation that much , there is a service in Ireland called The Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust that many who have not got the ready funds to do this have used very successfully & they handle everything then afterwards the family have benefit nights or something to pay them back afterwards -
