Prayut says he will just be an ordinary citizen with his family after retirement
Ordinary citizens dont live in upscale military housing with guards and servants. Cut the BS "Loon Tu".

Local Thai restaurants
Whoa!! Why is it unclear? Because Bangkok is such a huge city number one. Add to that the traffic and difficulties getting to some establishments. You have put no parameters on your study and you should have. Your research is seriously flawed. Example if you live in the LaSalle/Bearing area what good is a restaurant in the Laksi/Don Muang area? Perhaps if you had indicated what research you are doing and why, you might get better responses. This may be why you are getting "snarky" answers. May I ask you, are you always so demanding and condescending? This attitude will not do you much good here. Good luck as I for one dont like the attitude or lack of research parameters in totality. Other than that have a great day..

Tuk Tuk drivers
Nong Khai has interesting tuk tuk's they call skylabs, no idea why. But they are economical and can find their way through the maze of the one way streets there. The only place in Thailand I have gotten a kick out of a tuk tuk.

Can a retired expat get social secturity ?
Worked 31 years here and paid in each and every month. I feel entitled to it and have been collecting it for just over a year. Not much even at the top, just under 6000B a month, but its there. Its all based on time of work but calculated as the top salary being 15,000B a month.

Finding affordable medicine in Bangkok?
Googled this for Topomax, the other has to be available at some government hospital I would think. https://medtide.com/product/topiramate-topamax-25-mg-60-tablets/

Getting asked for money nearly the moment I leave my building, real flippin' nice Thailand ????
They are not all over, and very few outside of Bangkok. One reason Thai's are so shocked when they go abroad and see the homeless problems.

Sounds to me like you live in a crappy neighborhood.

Tuk Tuk drivers
I doubt any of us ride in a tuk tuk. May I ask are you having fun? In less than 24 hours we have been treated to 7/11's are tourist attractions, Its hard to cross the street in Pattaya, and now tuk tuks. First time to the LOS I would guess, you seem to really be hitting all the hot spots.

Pizza by the Slice in Bangkok
It is the best. Also a somewhat upscale restaurant that closes at 11pm. Truthfully not sure what they would think of the drunken Nana crowd. ????

Are you comfortable with being treated like a walking ATM?
I have read his posts and threads. I dont believe a word he says, seems you do. Brothers in arms I guess you could say.

Are you comfortable with being treated like a walking ATM?
Hi/So, are a small part of real Thailand. I have lived in the same nice upscale muban for 20+ years. My neighbors are all nice people who raised kids there as we did. Now a lot of retired people who exercise, chat and often eat together. They really have nothing to do with the scenario Bob described. You can get on with life here, or you can stay on the outside looking in. IMHO

He seems to live and associate with the lowest form of Thai society. He has no idea of the real Thailand.

Real Estate prices in Bangkok is lower than during covid
Seems the title should be condo units and not real estate. I dont see the value of land going down anywhere in Thailand. The wife just sold 1 rai of very prime land she bought 18 years ago. She made a huge profit by investing in land not condo units all simply by doing her due diligence.

What's good about the Philippines?
Pretty condescending post for a guy who seems to live for feedback on this forum. Also completely off the mark.

A good hotdog
Agreed, but you will only find pork which is fine by me. Foodland carries TGM and their 5 incher is the best I have found. Not often but when that craving comes.
