nothing new - germany and EU parliament uncovers false diplomas even with MPs who are in office for decades, there 'fine'  is instant retirement with over 10000Euros a month?

Hi all, I renewed my retirement visa in Pattaya 2 weeks ago, it was done within 25 minutes, arrived at 9.00 am, apart from the new information sheet no changes, the same great, helpful and polite service like the previous 9 years in Pattaya.

Hi all, Im a 60year old woman from germany and what happened there within the last 20years made me really think............, ladies my age appear in talk shows proudly presenting themselves as a new lesbian - after marriage and raising children, I personally know 3 of those?!?

A book written by one of the talk show guests in her sixties, where she claims to have had her first orgasm with a woman at age 63 was no 1 selling for months.

Hi all, Im Mag, female from germany, living and driving car & bikes here for 19 years.

I asked my longtime insurance broker to renew my insurance for my nouvo, which was due while I was in EU for 3 months - only to get his email that things where on halt bc of a 'pending traffic fine ticket' for this bike. I cannot remember of any problem and this bike is only under my bottom.

The insurance guys were not allowed to pay a 1000b fine, nor did they get any information what it was all about, police wanted to see the owner in person.

On my return yesterday I got the case nr and went to Pattaya beach police station, waiting the fine queue for 40 minutes to be sent to traffic dptm, another 20 minutes to find out there was a ticket copy from feb2016 (when I was travelling northern TH by my car) showing my license plate details and - my nickname, which doesn't show on any document - no signature.

It stated that I was met with no driving license on me in feb 2016, was given a ticket of 400b and failed to pay.

Interestingly no one at the police office wanted to see any driving licence, passport or proof of adress.

Neither did I get into any police checks without showing my license,nor was I handed any ticket, the nickname written was not my writing and signature was missing

btw Am a 60 year old lady and traffic madness is long behind me, hahaha.

Anyway, the ticket showed 1000b , but their idea was 400b fine plus 500 b for a document issued that the case is settled so the insurance can be done.

paid, done and half a day lost in beurocrazzy

anyone with a similar experience?

a great day to all

kind regards

does anyone have an idea when the Immigration office starts with this regulations????

Is that a good one for fools day???????????????????????

Hi all, I would like to buy a finish sauna or maybe an infrared sauna cabin for my home near Pattaya , 2nd hand would be welcome if its maintained and technically ok, have been looking at Pattaya Pool in North Pattaya but the sales people there looked at me like I'm from heaven and gave me a booklet about Health Mate infrared saunas and I'm still waiting for the promised information(14 days,hahaha)

happy for every idea, thanks for your posts in advance

warmest regards Mike

Debt them up. Burn that fuel brother. Thais just cruisin' along in the dark. Burnin' that fuel, runnin' up that debt. Boy oh boy these Thais, they sure know how to style that thing called life. Boy oh boy these Thais, they are something else.

Hi, what are you talking about these Thais, I recall the times in the mid80ies in germany when everyone who proved some income in the last 3 months was able to get loans for furniture, cars, holidays, in Spain people got 140% financed on highly overvalued properties, the average american today does not know how much their credit card debtbalance is as they pay a fix amount per month, as John Naisbit in 'Megatrends' wrote more than a decade ago, the asian countries will do exactly the same mistakes the western world showed them, but they will do it faster and deeper.

The rest of the world ironically followed the 97 crisis in Asia perfectly. It's just they had a fancy name for it. Loan securitisation and sub prime.

germany did the same 2009, everyone who was willing to scrap his car, old or not, was receiving up to 2500Euros for a new car = 100000B, the neighbouring countries in eastern Europe couldn't believe their luck to buy well maintained cars from scrapgrounds at bargain.

@ JSixpack, thanks excellent answer and great information

warmest regards Mag

Hi everyone, I would like to get my underlids lifted and a little work around my neck, does Queen Sirikit hospital in Sattahip has a departement for that or what are your experiences and recommendations, hospitals or private clinics???

thanks for sharing your informations

Hi all, don't blame it on Thailand, I'm 57 years old woman, born in a small mountain village in Austria, it was (and in some cases still is!!)very common that during the long winters daughters had to be at their male relatives and dad's pleasure, my aunt had a child from my grandfather, it's one of the most carpeted crime all over the world!!!!!!!!!!!

How many foreigners come to TH for child sex with boys/girls, there was a TV report in germany where those people where interviewed with blackened faces to keep them anonymous.

How many cases of longterm harassment and even hiding daughters and fathering their children have been come up recently in Europe???how about the recent gang-raping incidents in India which even happen there in public?In Africa a survey reports that over 80% of girl over 13years old had been abused in some kind or full by male relatives.

The scandal with a decade long child abuse ring which came up in Belgium some years ago included over 300 well educated and respected male academics all over Europe, most of them in high positions with wife and children.They were able to get their names kept secret and still live a hononrable life, who asks about the victims?

When Gandhi married his wife he was 14 she was 13.

Sad,sad,sad

I'm interested in getting a rolex datejust oyster perpetual 31mm 2nd hand with certificate, is there any reliable shop in Bangkok, Khorat or Chonburi?

actually bleach is used as a natural agent to prevent fungus etc, it's not hazardous and is used in organic gardening as well to keep water containers and pipes free from fungus, we also use it to keep our stainless steel drinking bottles and all kind of containers fresh without chemicals

answer to meatballs

you need to ask for Bayer aspirin, this is the trade name here, at every boots outlet you'll find it right in front of the cashier next to strepsils etc, in strips of 10tablets, no package, sometimes 2 or 5 strips in a clear cover, but you can ask for 1 strip its 15 or 20B

I'm an old frequent travelling lady and already more than 30years ago it was dangerous even in my homecountry germany to carry a handbag at night, I feel sorry for the victim and want to appeal to anyone - please learn your lesson whereever you are in this uncertain world.

thank you all guys for your replies, booked the Convenient resort already, great

warm regards mag

I want to bring an amount of Euro cash from Europe higher than 10000US$, is this possible and where do I declare it or get information before travelling?

thanks for your kind answers

Unfortunately this is happening all over the world, I grew up in the 60ies in a remote area btw germany/switzerland/austria alpine mountain and knew many victims my age abused in the families, the same happens all over africa where it's estimated 30% of all girls under 13 have been abused by family members.

I'm glad that more victims come forward, maybe it helps, I'm quite skeptical

Hi all, we are coming to Thailand for 15years now, living on retirement near Pattaya for 4years now, uncountable flights into TH for many years.

Date 1.2.2012 we arrived at 16.00 and it didn't seem more people as usual during this season, anyway it took us almost 2 hours waiting at the Immigration, does anyone have an idea what happened or do we need to get used on that?

It never,never happened before in 15 years

warm regards, thanks for your answers
