Report Welshman Heads Home After Medical Emergency in Thailand
I think many insurance are oversold. Like in Netherlands we all have a 'mandatory' medical insurance that's valid worldwide. Will have to request and download an international certified copy for Thailand, but that's it. All expenses paid up to the equivalent in treatment costs of my country (so that's more than enough). No extra travelling insurance needed. Still every time they try to sell me. So my advice to you guys; check your home medical insurance and download and PRINT the international validation. Keep it with you everywhere you go ... -

Tourism Thailand Tourism: Falling Behind or Ready to Evolve?
Last week its doom & gloom & the next week it claiming high tourist numbers so at least this article is somewhere in between. With poor infrastructure, rising prices, scams, Taxi mafia, violence, safety & outdated visa rules are just a few reasons why Thailand often struggles with attracting more tourists. Their marketing strategies target the wrong nations, if you are going to offer bargain hotel rates at least offer it to tourists who will actually spend money when the arrive but Thailand makes these offers to low spending nations!! It appears their preference is to attract numbers & not spenders! -

The official sinsod calculator for Thai marriages
I did not pay a Sinsod by definition but reality there are more way to pay! Don't think for a minute that hasn't crossed my mind. A year later I returned and kneaded before her mother prior early that year her father passed. Never asked but I offered she declined. At their family farm with a few family members her mother said a few words, blessed and tied a string around my wrist. When we returned to Pattaya Amphur we made it official. My brother prior to me locating him Golden Triangle Mae Sa, was already married noted he also paid none. That being said I'm not criticizing those who do my comment was towards the list coming from Thai although I know it is a joke. Fast forward 7 years ago my son now wife came before me after telling me she was pregnant I was expecting because I had a dislike for her freeloading family. The conversation " Tradition " I told her the problem I'm not Thai but Chinese and my tradition you pay me because of my son. But to get off on right foot give me a number that I can live with. I nearly choked! I spend more than than on a given night buying ladies drink but I can see why her parents couldn't get rid of her sooner! 🤣 attitude! I've seen Thai give have a big event for a show then zero thereafter. -

Economy Rising Costs Threaten Thailand's Once-Thriving Restaurant Scene
There are simply too many restaurants. Attrition is inevitable if poorly located, badly managed and overpriced. Chiang Mai has one restaurant which always provides top service, quality western and thai dishes at realistic prices. Kwan's Kitchen also has adequate parking, air-conditioning and service with a smile. A large bowl of delicious Rardna gai with fresh vegetables will set you back 97 baht. Some former favourites closed during covid and never reopened. Ozark and Amataros are 2 great eateries where we enjoy farang food, slightly off the beaten track, but well worth the patronage.
