Facebook Video Sparks Cleanup at Pattaya's Abandoned Waterfront Condo
They need to just squash the lawsuits and tear that eyesore down. It been years and years since it stopped being built and for some reason, unknown to us all, that it hasn’t been torn down. -

School Bus Fire Claims Multiple Lives and Injures Young Students in Rangsit
You must have a huge problem. I stated a possibility, as it is only a few countries in the world that have this problem on a regular basis. I was not doing a study or had any desire to do a breakdown. That´s up to the authorities to do if they see fit, as I will not matter if I would do one as an outsider. So, regarding breakdown, it looks like you had one. 😉 -

Thai Airways flight runs off runway in Bangkok storm scare
The article mentions that visibility was reduced, so maybe the pilot was doing a manual landing, which might explain why the aircraft veered off. -

Frozen in time: British expats losing out on pensions in Thailand
UK nearly the same as USA, BUT employers aren't that charitable, assume their 10% comes from you getting a lower salary. -

Frozen in time: British expats losing out on pensions in Thailand
And no rise! I read the whole thread. If you leave again, your pension reverts to the very first payment amount, ie pre frozen, with no increases. And you have somewhere in the UK to stay for 6 months? Is the UK affordable? And the cost of the return flight? That alone will hardly be covered by any rise you'll see while back in the UK. Is it really worth it? Return flight to Philippines about 6,000 THB. Ring the DWP. Tell them you've moved there. Pay pension into Wise account. YMMV and I would expect you to spend at least 6 months there...I'm not advising breaking any laws. It's only a suggestion which probably won't be useful to many. Like tax avoidance for the rich. It's not tax evasion. There's a huge difference. -

Wife and Mistress Fight, Husband Intervenes and Injures Wife
Take a look at the scene in Pattaya and Phuket as well as Bangkok. The many ones are holding hands with something much younger. If you come to Pattaya as a 42 year old Thai woman, you need a lot of luck to land something. Usually a person close to death or with financial difficulties. -

Frozen in time: British expats losing out on pensions in Thailand
This is a really poorly written article in many ways. I thought people had lost access to their pensions. And how does not getting a yearly increase leave people living "hand to mouth". Geez!
