mmh8 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I feel with all the face saving going on ,reports of students being arrested, innocent people being found guilty of crimes before trial, water mismanagement and all the incompetance that it would be nice to discuss the positive aspects of thailand. I don't want new visitors to think that are entering a place where all is bad.... so people what do you think Thailand does well? to kick it off for me its those ladyboy shows like the one in pattaya - Tiffany's Show its great in Bangkok its all the entertainment around soi cowboy and nana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know where you get the "little or no tax" from. VAT is higher than in Malaysia. Excise duty is higher than Vietnam, Laos or Cambodia. Income tax is higher than in Malaysia. Perhaps you meant Thailand is good at failing to collect the tax that is due. SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you get to know unemployment is so low when no one gets registered for the dole and as you know no dole in thailand so you are so wrong on unemployment.

lostoday Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Globally recognized, banana republic quality, third world buffoons. As per canman's post. I'm rich and old and have thousands of women at my beck and call. The weather is wonderful. My yard is full of flowering trees and sweet smelling plants. My dog loves me and is my best friend. I just received a big increase in my pension and money is rolling in so fast it is hard to keep track of it all. In the past couple of weeks I have learned so much on Thai Visa that has improved the quality of my life it is hard to thank them enough. Life is good; Thailand is wonderful and all is right with the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big African hookers that work the Arab quarter around Soi 3? Luckily most of the washed-up spongers in Thailand are living off the back of an actuarial fraud perpetrated against their own children before they were even born Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
