Actually, beechbum has probably lived here longer than you.

You are the one coming across as the newbie.

 

If Kamala is mainly a Thai community, where are all these expats that "are in the know?"

Beechbums remarks/questions come across as a tourist or someone who has never left rawai in 20 years. 
 

You are also not making much sense with your insulting remarks about Thai people and disparaging of west-coast living.
 

Why do you even want to live in Phuket if you feel so negative about the Thai people and place?

ahh so its whose been here the longest  LOL

ok, i moved to phuket  in 85,  so what?  does that make me an expert?   NOPE

 

PS: no road to Karon, BUT there was the old road to Kamala 

 

Not really. I learned long ago that length of time living here has no correlation to knowledge, but, you do have to spend a certain amount of time here. It also helps to be able to speak Thai.

Disparaging Thai people? Disparaging west coast living? You have a very fertile imagination.

Why don't you point out what is not true in my post?

 

You on the other hand are insulting actual posters.

You wrote it. Its here in the thread for everyone to see.

 

You said Thai people are not “friendly” and not “polite”. 

Are you suggesting that someone hacked your account and wrote those insulting descriptions about the people of Thailand?

Wow! Great demonstration on how to build a complete house with only three bricks.

Have you ever listened to the touts and tuk-tuk driver's and what they say in Thai?

I have found Thais to be just like everyone else. Some good, some bad.

 

Let me summarize your argument:

 

I chose to live in Kamala, so, it must be the best place on the island and anyone that disagrees with me is just plain wrong.

[Surelynot]

Just a note to say thanks to all have contributed......today I return from an(other) enforced break from TVN........although I see all have managed quite well with out any input from me.

Ok lets get this straight....

 

You would like to  change your initial insulting remarks about Thai people from ....Thais are “impolite” and “not friendly”.... to Thais are as “bad” as everyone else?

 

Is that your final answer?

I didn't say that. I said that they were like everyone else. Some good and some bad.

Most of the bad, impolite ones that I have come across were not from Phuket, though, many were OK (just like other people).

That is my final answer. Make of it what you will.

 

You think every Thai wears a halo?

 

I really have nothing more to add to this thread.

I've been living here since 96, you need to get out more.

I don't live in Rawai.

You are the epitome of why there's an ignore option.

Lol! You have obviously been triggered. 
 

Your comments on this thread have been ignorant at best, and purposely misleading at worst.

 

None of us can know your motives, but it would be helpful if you “ignore” all threads concerning Phuket, cause you haven’t helped the OP or anyone else in the community with your disgruntled blather.
