    That's one reason why I don't go to Phuket. The airport taxi mafia is bad enough. A lot of other beaches with a lot less problems.

    Banana mango??? On pizza??? Is that a common thing in Oz?

    Not into Thailand. I would rather carry it in from my home country, after riding it for awhile, and avoid import taxes. So far, I've never been stopped when bringing a bicycle into Thailand.

    "Pattaya Police Pledge to be an Organization the Public Can Trust" That's going to take a lot of work to overcome many years (decades?) of the standard operating procedures.

    Agreed! Poor trigger discipline for one thing.

    There are a lot of Thai doctors in the USA spread out all over the country. Most graduated from medical in Thailand and then later went to the USA for advanced training and specialization. What happens is the best ones get snapped up by a US hospital and are supported by their employer to get permanent residency, aka Green Card. They end up staying in the USA and only go back to Thailand for holidays after that.

    Yes, you definitely got scammed. She was setting you up to get even more baht out of you as well. Good thing that you gave the Issan restaurant a miss.

    Then the teachers at the school will either tell them to wear masks or browbeat them into wearing them. Really sad imho.

    The main reason why the US wouldn't sell their F-35's to the Thai Air Force is due to the Thais getting more cozy with the Chinese. Obviously, the Chinese would want to get their hands on a fully operational F-35 so it makes sense why the Americans wouldn't sell them to the Thais.

    I think the American is a little bit mentally off. He needs to get back on his medication.

    I only wear a mask when on the BTS and MRT. The rest of the time I go mask free. If a business or government office requires people to wear masks upon entrance I will do so or go elsewhere.

    Don't underestimate the lack of intelligence of the "Trump MAGA Cult". They rioted at 6 Jan and I wouldn't be surprised if they committed the same sort of nonsense if Trump were convicted of these charges.

    Canada? The story mentioned Vancouver but neglected to state how expensive housing is there. It's terribly expensive and certainly not affordable for anyone wanting to retire in Vancouver. Everything in Canada just costs so much more. Then there is the cold rainy weather for months on end.

    Why would anyone (expat) keep $5 million US dollars in a Mexican bank? Wealthy Mexicans with that kind of money don't even do that!

    Back in the 80's my Thai wife and I knew a number of Thai medical doctors in the US. Most had come to the US for advanced training in their specialty. It seemed that after completing their training they would be hired on somewhere in the US to gain experience. One thing leads to another and after a few years they had pretty much put roots down in the US.

    For whatever reason, he "fled the scene" as he didn't want his identity made known. Hopefully he was able to get medical attention to address his wound. Whether they would report this to the police or not is up to the policies and procedures of that medical facility.

    Yes, I did this at the border crossing you mentioned in the title. It was about six years ago so that maybe a bit dated now. I was on a visa exempt at the time. Spent about 30 minutes there and then came back to Thailand. Paid my 500 baht and got another 30 days.

    He's probably doing ok. Most likely shacked up in Pattaya with Lek, Noi, A, and Nit who all work at the same bar and share an apartment together. They just took him in like a stray cat and are looking after him now. He's also getting an education that he would never get back in Gateshead!

    MTG continues to be an embarrassment to the Republican Party. She is way out there in la la land. It's no wonder her husband recently divorced her. He couldn't even stand her!

    Why there was just a committee formed not too long ago that investigated prostitution in Pattaya and specifically around the Beach Road area. After their very thorough investigation they concluded that there was no prostitution in Pattaya. This recent police ban must be all a big misunderstanding.

    Very sad news. I hope that the RTP can solve this case. RIP to the young man and hopefully the girl can be found unharmed.
  23. Hanuman2547
    Good luck to your friend. I hope that he can make a go of it.
  24. Hanuman2547
    I'll pass on that one! ????

    Not really surprised that April is a lower month for international arrivals from all countries. Guess what, May just might be a low month for international arrivals as well. However, it's not all doom and gloom. I predict that in November and December there will be an uptick in international arrivals.
