geeeze .....  you are perfect.    give yourself a gold star everyday.    and give yourself a kiss in the mirror also.   Lol 

 

I will be the first to admit I am far from perfect, but I do know I am not as dumb as the numerous old farangs i have come across over he last 30 years,  who seem to think it is the norm to 'purchase' a young Thai woman by buying a house in the woman's name, then finding out they also have to pay for her family and the sick buffalo and think it is the norm. 

 

This belief is further reenforced by the fact they only hang out with like minded farangs, they never meet the normal sort of farang as they avoid them like the plague. 

 

At least I do not have a gold star in stupidity, I have bought properties I rent out as part of my pension but they are safe in the UK well away from sticky fingers.

From what I hear, that is a market to get out of, being a landlord getting pretty tough in the UK these days, rules and requirements being stacked against you.

A German national was rescued in Jomtien, over the weekend, after being found in a distressed and vulnerable state, having reportedly been evicted from his home by his Thai wife without explanation and living at the beach.

 

The incident came to light during a routine patrol by the Jomtien District Inspection Team, operating under the Policy and Planning Division of the Pattaya Municipality Office. 

 

The patrols are carried out in accordance with the directive of Pattaya Mayor, Mr Poramet Ngampichet, who has reiterated his commitment to safeguarding the well-being of all tourists and residents in the city.

 

Municipal officers responded promptly to the presence of a foreign man in visible distress. Officers arrived at the scene and coordinated with Pol. Col. Anek Sratongyu, Superintendent of Pattaya City Police Station, as well as other local law enforcement personnel.

 

They found the German national, whose name was withheld, distressed and without shelter. Preliminary questioning revealed that he had been abruptly evicted from his home by his Thai wife, leaving him with nowhere to go and no means of support.

 

Authorities acted swiftly to provide immediate assistance. Municipal officers, in collaboration with city police, ensured the tourist was taken to a safe location. The case was subsequently referred to the Tourist Police and the Immigration Bureau to provide further support and to guarantee his safety and welfare moving forward.

 

In a statement, Pattaya City expressed its gratitude to all agencies involved for their cooperation and swift action, which underscores the city’s dedication to being a safe and welcoming destination for both tourists and expatriates.
