Why Are Farangs in Thailand Allowed to Live on High FLoors?

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

Can the local government institute a regulation which might bar Farang from living on high floors?

 

Shouldn't we restrict Farang to living in apartments/flats/condos which are at the ground level?

 

The reason I ask is that there seems to be so many stories of Farang falling out of high stories.

 

For example, if a Farang were to fall out of a window of a condo at ground level, then nothing much might happen.

 

But, on the second floor, or third floor, bad things can happen when Farang fall out of windows, which they too frequently do.

 

And why do they fall out, anyway?

 

Probably alcohol is the reason.

 

Many Farang like to not only look out their windows, but they also like to look down at the street, presumably looking for hookers.

 

This is the main reason they fall out of their windows, IMHO.

 

They drink too much, and then, they have an upper-floor condo, and late in the evening, when they get lonely, they begin to lean out their windows looking for hookers, below.

 

This is why I think that most Farang should be restricted to living in condos no higher than the first floor.

 

For sure, I can tell you, the main reason Farang fall out of their windows is because they are leaning way out and looking down, trying to spot a girl that they think might be right for them, when they have had too much to drink.

 

What do you think?

  • What do we think? we think you talk nonsense... How about barring farangs from driving, riding, going to the beach and just walking around seeing so many of them finds themselves in troubles?...

  • Why are people allowed to write such stupid and ignorant things in Asean.

    You assume a lot and maybe think to much, "trying to spot a girl"?

All of what you mention seems sensible.

 

I am sure many here will agree.

I once had a friend.

 

I once had a friend who "fell" out of a window on the 9th floor of what is now the Cosmos hotel in Taipei.

 

He was inebriated and heartbroken over the loss of some tramp.

 

He fell from the 9th floor to the first floor.

 

The arcade which enclosed the entrance to the hotel was made of glass on top.

 

It was the glass and the arcade structure which broke his fall, and helped him to survive.

 

I had not seen him for awhile, until after his fall.

 

When I next saw him, he was in a wheelchair with a catheter, a urine bag to go with it, and a chagrinned smirk on his face.

 

I asked him why he leapt.

 

He told me he leapt for his loss of his tramp.

 

Sometimes, it just does not pay to be too impetuous while in love.

 

Love is pain.

 

And, after he leapt, the truth of Shakespeare was made known to him.

 

Still, I think he went down in history when he leapt from the Cosmos.

 

The arcade entrance is still there...after repair.

 

 

Note:  The guy who leapt from the 9th floor to the roof of the arcade entrance was NOT a Farang.  He was a WaiShengRen (a mainlander) who loved the bars and the bar girls.....too much.

Why did humans invent gallows humor?

 

Some questions are obviously beyond your ken.

If useless and pointless topics were never started in the first place then you wouldn't get useless and pointless replies would you, or is that beyond your ken?

Just one?

 

1/2 of a friend, after his dive.

 

The point is: Think before you leap!

 

Otherwise, if one lives, then one is bound to regret what one had thought would be one's last bound into oblivion.

 

 

I live on the 9th floor. Improbably, the railing on my balcony only goes up to my penis.  

 

Gamma is right. This place should rent to short Thai's only. The Burmese run a little taller than them, so nix them too.

No worries.

It's all about impulse control.

What a ridiculous post (as usual). You don't think they could find a shopping mall, roof top bar etc in fact anywhere high to do the deed? You don't need a high rise condo

Whoa....

 

Talk about the ultimate jumping to conclusions....

I reckon Thai's shouldn't live on low floors. 

 

This Thai guy nearly killed himself falling from the second floor

Specially designed for urinating off the balcony.

Yesterday there was a posting about a bus accident killing 24 in Pattaya. 

 

Fake news. 

 

It's closed now.

I think that farangs should be banned from using internet and posting on forums. What do you think, @GammaGlobulin?

After a long night out, and a fair amount of nose candy, some guys think they can fly...

Why not then just ban foreigners from living in condos. Call it a national security isdye as they may fall onto Thais and hurt them. About the stupid a suggestion.

There are not many stories.  Aseannow just spends 95 percent of it's time finding car accidents and balcony fall stories.

Even better, decree foreigners can only live in Thai villages, thereby enabling them to acquire the elusive attribute of Thainess.

It is a bit tragic the OP does not realize condo developers do not make a profit from building single-storey condos.

When it comes to your posts, I don’t think anything, I just move on.

@GammaGlobulin For the same simple reasons you are allowed to post on this forum. It´s a free world. Usually, the ones that fall are intoxicated or plain stupid, so I guess Darwin´s theory is working well.
