The bottom line is that if I want to wear a pink shirt I do, if I want to wear yellow trousers I do and if I want to wear a mask I do. What business is it of other people what I choose to wear?

Please don't drive and drink

why is the post dated 1 day ago?

I bet long term stayers spend more per head that short term tourists so you should encourage the former and not TAX THEM

Nothing to do with tariffs eh?

If drivers had a little more patience there might be fewer patients in the hospitals BUT I am afraid it's not in the average Thai's DNA

Good reason to book that ticket to Thailand then?

I went to Ontario many years ago - you could only buy alcohol in government shops - is that still the case?

Just a lot of hot air😁

Now I know why I can't get 3 in 1 Cappuccino

Just because you don't agree with with what the Thais do on their new year doesn't make them stupid but it does show your ignorance (judging others by your standards) I think in a previous post you said you're entitled to have an opinion and express it - so you are but that doesn't extend to calling a nation stupid because you don't like what they do.

What is the position on joint bank accounts (one Thai one UK not married). Can you choose which person will be taxed on the transfers to that account or is it a joint liability?

Well Jose (apparently a Spanish name so if you are Spanish you'll understand). Everywhere in the world there are "stupid" traditions. For example in Spain; Pamplona - the running of the bulls - most years someone dies or gets seriously injured not wet. La Tomatina is a Spanish festival in Buñol - wasting food when people are starving. If the Thais want to throw water (and call it a tradition) to attract tourists it's their business not yours.

How long does something have to occur before it is a "tradition"

I said this on another thread: Hollywood comes to Washington!
