SPB65 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I wonder how many people die each day from non-natural causes ? 2nd in the world for road deaths, an unusually high number of "suicides" and all manner of deaths related to drugs,drink,domestic violence and so on. It's got to be a shocking figure when totted up. Ultimately too many Thai men are just morons with no self control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome violence, widespread corruption, greedy people, and materialism have changed my feeling for this once beloved country. But my Thai wife doesn't even want to talk about it Cannot say I blame her. Her talking about it will not make the problem go away. Why stir things up and raise your blood pressure. Smart woman. Yes its gruesome but other parts of the world are the same. There is no little corner to hide in anymore. We are the product of a greedy I want it it now world. Just look around you.

As we sow so shall we reap. Maybe other parts of the world are the same but it is still pretty bad here. I have to say I still generally feel safe when I walk around in Pattaya, except when I walk past a load of drunken motorbike taxi guys sitting there waiting for fares, they stare at you, talk amongst themselves and do make you feel uncomfortable for sure. I avoid all of the crappy, sleazy places anyway so I guess I miss most of the idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji39] I'll bet you son, I've lived a lot more dangerously in my life than you have. Never even had a computer until I had been here nearly 20 years. Back in the 80s there was a different kind of expat to nowadays. These days they are retired civil servants and people with similar boring lives who found love on the internet and came to live here.
