Unemployment Rate in Thailand Declines, But Unemployment in Bangkok Rises
The key words are "registered workers". Many people running the odd roadside stall, one chair hair dresser or day labourer are not registered. As also once indicated, one third of all Thais of working age are not registered workers. They have no OFFICIAL job. -

Holiday idea, fast train to China.
Yea ... I'd say her 1st day impression isn't going well She was really looking forward to it also. Hope the business end of the trip is better. She's at Guangdong Province, Guangzhou, checking out manufacturing for her business, as things getting expensive here/TH, to get produced. -

Several neighbouring countries compete with Thailand for foreign retirees
Are you sure about this? In Malaysia (which has now got a Remittance Tax) you can REMIT the proceeds of the sale of a foreign property and it is EXEMPT from the Remittance Tax. The Remittance Tax ONLY applies to INCOME earned overseas. Remitted proceeds from a property sale is CAPITAL (not Income), and is specifically exempted. Maybe it's the same in Thailand? -

British family struggles with father’s funeral costs in Thailand
If anyone in my family dies I'm not going back to the US. If I die I don't want anyone to come over here. If anyone is going to travel - do it to visit a live person! I'd be ecstatic to actually see a family member travel over here to visit while I'm still kicking. I posted elsewhere - A cremation should not set you back more than maybe 10,000 THB - 30,000 tops here in Thailand. When you're dead, you're dead. You "need" a wooden box and a hot oven. And that costs next to nothing here. You don't need a fancy funeral. Your family can have memorial services in your home country. You are gone! All of the expense discussed by the OP is really unnecessary. I've already discussed this with my wife and family. I find it odd that people travel overseas and then think they are immune to death. Think that through before you travel and plan accordingly. Sound harsh. Apologies. But to this day I simply don't understand Westerner's morbid fascination with death and the equally fascinating manner they deal with it. And then add on top of it a load of unnecessary debt. Nope - I don't understand.- 1

Oh Beloved Bangkok, How So You Have Changed...
Timing !!... from about 10am to 4pm and then 6pm onwards the traffic usually isn't so bad (exceptions on Friday after 4pm and Saturdays all day - when everyone is out shopping). Even with the expanding sky train there are many excellent locations, restaurants and bars that are beyond the access of the sky-train. Additionally, the sky train covers the busiest areas, so area's off the sky train routes often have less traffic anyway. But - try taking the sky-train at 5pm on a Friday.... its he'll - especially if navigating via Asoke - that said, if in a car, forget about getting anywhere !!!... So sky train really is the only option at that time from that area. I live in Bangkok (not on a sky train route) so take the sky train about 3 times per year perhaps... Most of the time its Drive / Motorcycle or GrabCar BoltCar or Taxi.... If I lived within a few mins of a Sky-Train then I imagine I would use it a lot more - but as it stands I'd have to get a taxi to a sky train and then for most places I visit, I'd need to get another taxi from a sky-train (and those usually have a queue). -

Drunken Tourist Allegedly Attacks German Man and Thai Wife in Pattaya
Whenever I read headlines about foreigners acting badly, I dread it if they're from the US. But when I opened this story and saw the guy wearing toddlers PJs, I knew it wasn't American, as US citizens are not allowed to dress like that...at least not in public. -
