Where is Lane road?

No lane road, just a name they gave the road. It doesn't have a name. On Bophut hills.

It says "soi khao phra" on the ring road. Tambol Bophut is so to say the whole Chaweng and Bang Rak area.

Soi Khao Phra, is the old Soi monkey road. This particular road is off it & leads up the mountain.

I'll look at the GPS next time, it has given it a name once before I think.

The opening post has the relevant translation.

Maki was arrested on a warrent from America. Met him a couple of times, seems like a nice guy.

Is this the couple that organised the expat things at Nikki Beach?

Fraudsters always seem like nice guys. Why not ask some of the people he was convicted of defrauding.

Charges , wire fraud and money laundering, sure very nice people.

[manfrommanteo]

Quite true, Oak. Farang 55, I don't know about the Nikki Beach thing. My friend was building a house in Bophut Hills and this guy was a neighbor of his.
