Do I need Thailand?.....No.

I only stay because Thailand needs me

WHY OH WHY does every little argument have to be 'solved' by violence?!?!? What happened to talking?!? In the worst case, you can agree that you disagree... So, up to someone else (police, judge) to decide, if you continue to disagree...

Violence solves nothing, but makes things only worse....

Yeah, this is Thailand, but this is a worldwide thing... Happens everywhere unfortunately

Get your TAT insurance out!! Which one is that, you may ask...

It is the one that promises guarantees that the rain does not have any impact on Tourism; if it does though, TAT will pay you whatever income you have missed!

Maybe you can not find it; in that case I am sure TAT will get you a new one.....

Can't we just stop reporting about Phuket??? It is all BS anyway: talk, talk, talk, pay, pay, pay and ABSOLUTELY nothing changes in Phuket. Oeps sorry, not true..... Different hands (once in a while) to collect the tea-money and other bribes...

Phuket!?!

Can't we just stop reporting about Phuket?

Ahhhmmm this is Phuket Forum...what on earth do you expect?

Sorry, was not aware of that! I just get the TV News daily, and read the interesting topics... Never really look in what forum it is posted... (my mistake )

Of course TV could close the Phuket forum, but that would not be fair to the Phuket guys, would it?!?

Bravo! Phuket BIB rolled up a BIG network of drug lords!! 0.3 gr and 1.49 gr, very impressive

Finally Phuket is drugsfree

Abba and Phuket deserve each other... Abba never made real music anyway

Very strange, you can't.... Thousands manage to get a foot-massage in BKK every day

Maybe they do not like your feet?!?

Phuket!?!

Another reason to RENT and not BUY...

You always get this advice from people who can't afford to buy a place. Then smugly wait for someone to have a problem and claim it is the very reason they don't buy, and won't admit its cos they don't have the money to buy anyway.

YOU make the assumption that I cannot afford to buy... Very wrong assumption, mate!

Personally I do NOT want to own a house, because I do not want to get stuck in the wrong place and are unable to move out, because I live alone and do not buy a house for my tilac, because I rather spend the money on other things.

And if you really think I am smugly waiting to comment on people who buy houses... As if I have nothing better to do than giving stupid comments on TV...

Have a nice life, mate.

Another reason to RENT and not BUY...

If the price of a beer is higher than the price of your meal, does that mean beer is expensive or does it mean that food is cheap?!?!?

800k is pretty low. Not a hard ask really.

For you maybe.... Not everyone has that kind of money lying around...

The best solution for this guy is to just allow Phuket born people in Phuket (19,444 in Patong).

Do NOT allow outsiders (Thai or farang) in your 'beautiful' Phuket.....

You will see that most, if not all of Phukets problem are solved with this simple rule: No outsiders in Phuket!

Good luck, matey

I am not surprised at this story.

My neighbor said he was being attacked by ghosts in his house at night. His family decided to take him to the local witch doctor who specializes in performing magic clearing out the ghosts and evil spirits from the body. Her other specialty is giving out lottery numbers. Being a curious type of guy I wanted to see this. Five people held this poor old man down on the floor while the witch doctor continually poured buckets of water in his face. He almost drowned. I though he did. They revived him. She declared he is free of ghosts and evil spirits. They took him in the house where he changed all his clothes then they burned the ones he had on during the ceremony while the witch doctor chanted. He came back home and three local monks arrived. They encompassed the entire outside of the house with white strings. Ghosts don't like white strings. The monks asked for candles, water and some kind of food. They stayed up all night expellng all the ghosts from the house. The next morning they declared the house would be free of ghose for five years.

Just curious... How much had your neighbor to pay for this "service"? Only for a 5 year guarantee? Did it come with a receipt and warranty?

'Religion' is very good business

I still have a couple of hundreds that I don't use at the moment....

They can get them from me, just give me one 1000 THB note and you will get back eight 100 THB notes

What will change?!?!?!?!?

Maybe now the Chinese government will prohibit the Chinese tourists from going to Phuket! That would Phuket feel in their wallets.

In every possible sense: Phuket?! Phuket is bloody joke; I hope that island ends up like Atlantis, under the sea

I bought the other day a new SIM ("09-xxx") for just 50 THB

Anyway, who knows a number?!? Normally people assign names to the numbers, so for me a number is just an identifier. Nothing more, nothing less. I can not imagine to pay 100,000 THB for just a number, but they are stupid (and rich) people everywhere

Idea for free ticket: take your own cockroach on the plane and put him under the plastic

Maybe airlines will serve Isaan food in the near future

Buddha would have a good laugh about this and then he would explain to these guys what "Buddhism" stands for.

One of the main 'rules' is that anyone is responsible for his own actions. How does that work in Thailand?!?

Corruption is endemic in the Asian blood.

It is American blood, mate! Asia has nothing to do with it The fact that one of these guys is born in Cambodia is completely irrelevant; Almost all Americans are originally from other places (except the Native Americans)

You really think corruption is an Asian thing?!?!? It is 'invented' in America

I don't believe it! Every dive instructor (even the Russians) know how to treat a simply cramp, especially by himself! There must be more to the story...

Anyway, RIP

Horrible music and horrible guy

Happy mating, Linping
