What does it take to run a diner?
From experience; for one successful operation you'll find 100 just surviving and a 1,000 who failed. It is hard work, a delicate balance between professional purchasing and market-conform selling, the staff issue is endless in whole Thailand but particularly critical in Pattaya and, in all fairness, nobody goes to that area for "dining". Eventually a production kitchen might be the answer. Provide the open beer bars around the area with neutral menu display stands giving a selection of a few pizza options, square, in two slices. Put the sales price onto the display and state "order with our staff here". The bar orders with you, collects the pizza slice/s - say - ten minutes later and pays you the sales price less 20% as their commission. No dining tables, cutleries, waiting staff, air conditioned restaurant etc. etc. - just a thought. Everything else is, in most cases, suicidal in the long run, me thinks! I got out in time with a professional 4* star restaurant; would never ever do anything the like ever again - in Thailand that is. -

Why is All the Hate Towards Russia and Not China?
So you get nothing to offer against the fact that a committee headed by Senate Republicans concluded that Manafort worked with the Russians. To put it another way, you've got nothing. -

Deadly Consequences: Motorists Warned Against Seatbelt Buckle Inserts
I live in a small town so my trips are generally within three or four km. of my home, and I usually use my motorbike, but when I'm in the car I don't need a seatbelt to drive 3 km.- 2

US Deports Hundreds of Alleged Venezuelan Gang Members Despite Court Order
You don't get it, do you? I'm not amazed that you don't care about rights of the accused and having your day in court. No one wants them to stay in the US, full stop. The question does arise as to "Why El Salvador?" If any have lawyers, how will they contact the prisoners? Instagram? The concern is for due process and the rule of law. Trump and his minions lack respect for the law and therein lies the danger. Due process would ensure that those that went were the right ones. Trump has no respect for the law: he wants any law firms that provide counsel to his "enemies" to be barred from entering US courts, any contracts. The right to legal representation is the bedrock of law. He wants any news organization that doesn't suck up to him barred and/or lose their license (like CBS,etc). -

BREAKING NEWS Thailand Cuts Visa-Free Stay to 30 Days to Combat Abuse
Do real hardened criminals come to Thailand more because of a 60 day waiver? or wouldn't hardened criminals have fake passports, documents, etc? It's comical that a career criminal would come to a country because of a 60 day waiver. Do pissed up louts start fights because of a 60 day waiver or would they be starting fights whether they was on a 2 week holiday, 30 day waiver, 60 day waiver, etc,etc. Do people work here illegally because there is now a 60 day waiver instead of 30 days. who is coming over to Thailand to work for just 60 days? Are criminals involved in property scams flooding Thailand because they can now stay 60 days instead of 30? Not one of their reasons makes any sense. Or is the real reason is.....it's because a certain amount of Thais started moaning that foreigners were here longer than 30 days without a visa and they can't stand the idea of more falangs being in their country for any longer than they should be.
