Expect a knock on the door for working illegally

[Chicog]

Australian is a brown noser.

[daoyai]

I actually made it half way through !

[Thailand]

Awesome!

Tourist working at Prem for 3 years?

[ratcatcher]

Australian tourist who has been in Chiangmai for 3 years, who is a teacher in Prem Tinnasulanon international school, Chiangmai,

Tourist, teaching at an international school for 3 years. Amazing Thailand.

[Showbags]

He exudes Thainess

[Paangjang]

He exudes Thainess

Poor fella...

[taotoo]

"...could never reside" LOL

[Torrens54]

Ah, give him "E" for Effort, at least he is showing his appreciation for our city instead of dropping a can on it, as all too many expats seem to relish doing.

[Saan]

Australian is a brown noser.

He is a real a....hole too. How dare he be positive about Chiang Mai. He should be a real expat and whinge abut how rotten life is here.

[Traxster]

Good on you Mate.....

Just ignore all of these 'coulda beens' and 'never will bees'

At least you had a go !

Good on you !.

[Jingthing]

Red shirt?

[Beetlejuice]

I don`t think he should give up his day job.

[deecee10]

Some neat riffs but the lyrics read as if they written for a travel commercial.

Still, not as nauseating at that other Aussie composition, "Still call Australia Home".

[WinnieTheKhwai]

Well, at least there is room for improvement.

The bar is pretty high, with the really, REALLY good 'Pattaya - Pattaya' song. (A remake of the Kingston-Kingston original by the same Belgian musician, it works really well for Thailand (also for Thai musical tastes) and doesn't take itself too seriously, pretty much hitting the spot.)

I don`t think he should give up his day job.

I was going to say the same but notice he would have to if he's only teaching on a tourist visa?

[Saan]

You can back it in if he is teaching at Prem he has a work permit. The mistake was obviously made by that leader in world journalism the Pattaya Daily News. Now that's cleared up the nitpickers can curl up and have their morning nap before their afternoon session.

[Ridler]

Why do people do this? Do they think it will be easier to get a visa? Reminds me of the English man who cycled across the country and had the press taking photos of him kneeling and crying in front of portraits of the King.

Jesus F.C. He teaches at the biggest international school in the North. He has a work permit.

Not that this matters in any way, as playing music for your own enjoyment clearly doesn't require one.

You'd think there is something in the water in this town.

Why do people do this? Do they think it will be easier to get a visa?

I don't know. Why do people paint. Play golf. Drink beer. Whine on Internet forums. People have hobbies, doing stuff, badly. But that's okay.

Points to him....its not easy to tear up on demand.

[bridge2bridge]

Good on him, nice to see someone show some emotion about where they live.

Too many of us knock people for having a go.

Yes, so many expats yearn for a true sense of "home" in Thailand, but alas, immigration computer says -- NO.

Great video this Put Ta Yaa.

Brilliant camera work the way the cameraman managed to hide all the blood and vomit from view on the side-walks, but nice girls, although not the sorts one would take home and introduce them to mother.

Enjoyed the video. Actually makes me miss the place a bit....for a visit anyways. Don't think I can handle any more than a few days at a time. Some cuties in there as well, essential for any Thai video.

New Lyrics

This is your city

This is your city

Why don't you fall over yourselves

to make the farangs feel loved

This is your city

This your city

Would love to pay regular prices

that are displayed up above.

Cause this aint my city

Cause this aint my city

even though I wish it was.
