Community German National Rescued After Reportedly Being Left Homeless in Jomtien
It is norm for a certain type of farang. They are not forced to roll a dice. Well I suppose they are now that I think about it, I mean cars are not free and have to be paid for, so I suppose that type of girl has to be paid for. In the case of a car it can break down in the first month or so with no refund and a woman can "run off" with the house. What I can't understand is if they want a young woman then why marry them and pay for them long term, they could get a young one every night and they never get old. -

Europe remains the key to Britain’s future economic success
Not so for any number of reasons. Many EU financial centres e.g Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Paris have tried - and largely failed - to entice financial institutions to relocate from the City of London. This highlights the first reason why a major relocation has not occurred: Intra-EU competition. A second reason is that many (most?) of the major financial institutions already had a presence in continental Europe, therefore the City's loss of passporting rights meant that the impact was limited: Some functions were relocated but the hub remained in London. Thirdly, London has a dominant position in some markets e.g. foreign exchange trading where 38% of global transactions are conducted. Fourthly, the intellectual expertise and infrastructure cannot simply be replicated overnight in Frankfurt, etc: There is also the 'human element'. It appears that US financial executives simply prefer London as a city to its' continental counterparts. I could go on but you get the gist. Again, not true. There can be no doubt that the UK has problems - which country doesn't? - but it is far from a failed state and it is - contrary to what some of the ex-pat doom mongers on ASEAN now might suggest - still a fairly decent place to live for the majority of people. However, having said that the loss of a significant proportion of the financial service sector would be a major blow to the country as financial related services contribute about 12% to the UK's total economic output (gross value added), or £275 billion. This represents around 3.4% of UK GDP and contributed 10.1% of total UK tax receipts (Source: Google AI). Yet again, not the case. Notwithstanding the fact that the 'transfer' of functions may not be a simple and smooth process, as I stated in the previous paragraph the effect that this would have the UK economy would be significant, and the knock-on effect for the EU economy sizeable; 13% (+/-$330bn) of EU exports and 9% (+/-$180bn) of EU imports go to/ come from the UK. A reduction of say, 10%, in these figures - due to the loss of purchasing power on the part of the British consumer/ manufacturer would be significant for the EU. As I showed above, if the EU were to regulate the UK out of existence, it would be a case of cutting off their nose to spite their face. I credit them with more savvy than that. -
