Interesting reading about Thailand and Thai people
Not even close to true. I have spent ten years hiring kids fresh out of college. Sure, the "context" changes, and the world is moving faster and getting smaller. But as I read the paper from 1990, I kept nodding and seeing its relevance even today. 25yo Thais are interpreting the modern world within the framework of their culture and, in my humble opinion, managing it better than their western counterparts. -

Drunken Tourist Allegedly Attacks German Man and Thai Wife in Pattaya
PHOTO: รักสยาม นิวส์ In the early hours of August 20th, 2024, a violent altercation erupted at the Gold Bar Beer in Soi 6 on Pattaya Beach Road, Nongprue sub-district, Banglamung district, Chonburi province. The incident involved an intoxicated foreigner who allegedly assaulted a German man, Mr. Ral Peter Mallon, 60, and his Thai wife, Ms. Pornwin Ramakul, 27. Authorities rushed to the scene after receiving reports of the disturbance at approximately 12:10 AM. Upon arrival, they discovered Mr. Mallon suffering from a significant head injury and Ms. Ramakul with a loose tooth. Both individuals received first aid before being transported to Bangkok Pattaya Hospital for further treatment, reported The Pattaya News. Eyewitness Ms. Kanyarat Wansena, 28, recounted that the foreigner began harassing her and her friends while they were at the bar. The assailant accused them of causing distress to one of his friends, but Ms. Kanyarat denied the accusation and attempted to de-escalate the situation. Despite their efforts, the foreigner became increasingly aggressive. Mr. Mallon intervened in an effort to protect his wife and friends but was allegedly punched by the drunken man, causing him to fall and hit his head on the floor. The fall resulted in a serious head injury that required over nine stitches. Doctors have advised that he remain under observation due to potential brain trauma. The suspect also struck Ms. Ramakul, leading to her dental injury. The suspect, who gave his name as “Michael,” 44, refused to provide further identification details to the authorities. He made offensive gestures at the media and police, raising his middle finger while being photographed. Later, it was revealed that he attempted to settle the matter personally by offering compensation to the victims. However, the police have stated that further legal actions will be considered once the victims have recovered sufficiently.

Has anyone faced issues with visa agents—what should I watch out for?
Well, in the case of my extension based on a work permit, the shear heft of the documents required, along with everything being in Thai, I was not about to even attempt such a task -- an agent is necessary. However, I did my first retirement extension on my own, as well as my marriage extension (with help from the wife). So, as you say, these do not require an agent, unless you just like having someone to hold your hand and do the talking for you.- 1

What’s your favorite way to spend a weekend in Thailand?
Grow a sense of humour loser! Men sh it talk to each other while women talk behind people's backs. You clearly have no balls between your legs. Your even a bigger loser for reporting posts. Be a man and learn to ignore people instead of choosing to be triggered. This is why people suffer from depression cause you can't let go and choose to be triggered by what people say. Comedy is illegal today cause of losers like you! Nothing worst than a loser than runs to the principal office to report people! -

THAILAND LIVE Thailand Live Wednesday 21 August 2024
Several neighboring countries compete with Thailand for foreign retirees By Barry Kenyon Property growth is the biggest draw in south east Asia as this Phuket hoarding illustrates. Thailand offers a multiplicity of long-term visas for women and men well past the first bloom of youth. They include annual extensions of stay, the 5-20 years Elite visa and the 10 years Long Term Residence (LTR), each of which has its own scale of charges with assorted pluses and minuses.
