No surprises here. October/November have always been low season. This means less tourists. ????

Note to Nali An amazing and sad story. Sorry that I cannot help but I wish you all good luck in your new life.

Of course, the CCP government never lies.

The embassy cannot become involved in criminal cases. All they can do is to provide a list of recommended lawyers. If you go to gaol, then the embassy can support you. This all happened as they were checking out of the hotel. That was when she realised that she did not have the hotel key. She was paying the bill, the boy went to fetch the key from the nearby shop. She could not leave Thailand as she was arrested for the assault. The boy left as planned. I believe that she is still in Thailand facing the assault case.

No. She sold the land 15 years ago. Relatives came and took the money. They keep stealing any money this lady gets. Sad story - in The Thaiger

Like Thailand?

There are not many countries where blatant vote buying is openly accepted. I ❤️ Thailand.

These Palestinians are the same ones that kill innocent civilian men, women and children. And you want respect for them?

Totally disagree with your comment re good/bad parenting. My mother treated both my sister and I the same . I respect the law, never hit people (especially women) and try to be polite to everyone. My sister is a criminal. Wanted by the police and when I caught her stealing cash from our mother and grandmother I kicked her out of the house. We never saw her again. Some people just grow up bad. It is usually from the people that they mix with. Social media now is a BIG influence on kids. People forget the innocent victims of crimes like this one. Parents, siblings, children etc. I am not judging this kid's parents, but they will be hurting as well. Not the same as the family of the poor women who died, but they will still be hurting.

Ditto Bandon Hospital.

Sadly, most people these days do not think about the old mantra - Mirror, signal, manoeuvre. RIP young lady.

You can also include Samui immigration office in that list. As online registration is painless, I register every time that I return home. ????

An article in the BP stated that the boyfriend actually caught her by the leg as she jumped, but he could not pull her back in. A witness on the ground verified this.

Respect

There is a good selection of Toppers in Homepro here on Samui. I do not know about Pattaya.

Less than $30,000 is poor compensation for the two young girls that saw their mum being killed.

It is not just the the Buddhism. The vet that I use told me that it is quite difficult to get the drugs for this procedure and there is a lot of 'hoop jumping' and paperwork. At least in many areas there are voluntary groups taking in the strays as well as neutering them. The area where we live is popular for 'dog dumping'. It is very sad. As soon as we see an abandoned male dog, we call in the vets. Many of the dogs have adopted local owners and the security guards.

Not when you live on a private development and the charge is 9 baht per Kwh. The payback on my small installation (no batteries) was just under three years.

I am starting to feel like that with April. ????

Plus interest (not much though)

Grab are not allowed to do airport pick ups. The last guy who tried it got shot. We use a reliable lady called kh Ked (Kate) I will PM her number to you

PM sent to the OP with details for a good supplier and installer on Samui. At least 7 installations in the development where I live.

I installed solar panels through a guy called Claude email [email protected]. About 7 of my neighbours have used his services as well. I only collect power during the daytime (no batteries) but the system paid for itself in just under three years.
