toptuan Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 I'm like.. "Wth" am I the only foreigner using Thai Visa in Hat Yai? Don't despair. We have 57,700 members more to go before the poll is complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptuan Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 Maybe this would have been a better idea and not as dated as your atlas http://www.worldatlas.com/aatlas/world.htm LaoPo Now you know why this is a "non-scientific" poll. Eureka! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toptuan Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 I'm up here in Nong Bua Lam Phu and according to the poll, there are only 12 others in this region. Nah Can't be right. That's where all the tax-dodgers moved to. Have to keep a low profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptuan Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 A non-surprise: No gun-running farangs have reported in from the three southernmost provinces yet. However, I do know at least 4-5 fomer "southerners" who now live in Isaan. Understandably, lots of farang migration from that region over the last 5 years.

phutoie2 Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 For North central Thailand provinces I think that should read Petchabun and not Petchaburi which is SW of BKK. I will be ticking the North central option. (Petchabun) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibor1945 Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 (edited) I'm in central Thailand, Lopburi, and apart from the monkeys, I like it here. It has only been 5 days, but first impressions count for a lot!! I just moved to Lopburi a few months ago too. I was previously in Phitsanulok. garro. You seem to be on the same path as myself, spent 8 years in Phitsanulok before moving down here. We now have 3 of the 5 central inhabitants who have voted so far kato. welcome to central Thailand, and don't let the monkeys steal your sun glasses. Regards Nibor.

gennisis Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Still don't quite see how almost all of the Middle East can be considered "Asia", or even "Asia Minor".Meanwhile, when working I'm in AssCrackistan. When at home I'm in the Chon Buri area (or at the bottom of a bottle of JD !). Can allllmmmmoooossssstttt see my apartment using MapJack (with Google Earth all I can see is the roof). with only 6 continents to choose from the'middle east' would cover mostly Asia..although Syria,Lebanon,Israel,Jordon in the same group as Japan,China etc does leave room for some defined area renaming.

geriatrickid Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 I'm like.. "Wth" am I the only foreigner using Thai Visa in Hat Yai? You may qualify as an endangered species. I was wondering how many people would answer from your region. Look on the bright side - if it gets bad down there and you need a care package or something, I'm sure the generous folks out of the 57,000 TV members might be able to come up with some crisps, biscuits and a roll of TP as a gesture of solidarity.

I'm spending as little time as possible in the presence of the monkeys, those guys look mean!! N as for my sunglasses, lost those in my last week in India C/O a very big wave (that'll teach me for going in the sea wearing them mind!) but looking at the weather right now, Im not gonna need a new pair for a while!

Hat Yai isnt really that bad actually. It's very much filled with tourists from Malaysia/Singapore/Indonesia now, and tourism are skyrocketting to no end now. Of course, let's hope nothing bad will happen as I'll still be here for a year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dumspero Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Saipan, so can't see where to vote. Most folks don't mean to include us in SE Asia, and if "Oceana" is the same as "Oceania," then it doesn't include Micronesia or the West Pacific. Cheers.
