Yes, we all know the only aim is protection of their position in the trough and stop others from reducing their shareholding

Expectations Vs Reality

Expectations Vs Reality

Freebird13 · Friday at 06:04 AM2 days

I have been "retired" to Pattaya now for about a year. I wanted to post a little about my expectations moving in vs the reality of being here (without writing a book). Each point listed below is numbered in the expectations category vs the reality. You can reply with your own down below if you would like to contribute to the list. Expectations 1. A young socially vibrant scene in an upscale condo building. 2. A nice pool with many young women swimming and sunbathing & having fun. 3. People

Bar with "normal" women?

Bar with "normal" women?

CanadaSam · 8 hours ago8 hr

I've noticed that women with jobs at banks, hospitals, etc., simply do not frequent normal bars. I'm so tired of the exact same bar lady questions "how long you in Pattaya" etc. etc. I'd really like to try and meet a woman with a regular job, who is not a freelancer or bar lady! Does anybody know of anyplace like that in Pattaya (or anywhere in Thailand for that matter). You're welcome to PM me if you don't want it to be public knowledge for obvious reasons! Thanks for the helpl!

Motorbike Repair Shop - Central Pattaya Area

bbi1 · 12 hours ago12 hr

Anyone know of a reputable motorbike repair shop in the Central Pattaya area? I fell off my rental motorbike a week ago at about 25-30km/h and ended up badly scratching the plastic front-side section of the motorbike quite a bit. I presume the only way for them to fix this is for them to order a replacement of the plastic front-side section and throw out the old one? Roughly how much would something like this cost, ballpark figures?

Do you agree that Thailand is making it harder for foreigners?

Jingthing · Wednesday at 11:04 AM4 days

I think the obvious answer is yes they are. Do you agree, or not? The video details many specific points making that case. I don't see very much at all to disagree with in it. There is one thing. I did know very well from the get go coming for retirement that Thailand wasn't inviting me. Rather I was inviting myself so that's a different less warm and fuzzy dynamic. I also knew that being on retirement extensions offered no path to permanent residence. On buying a condo, I knew that owning a con

Is Illegal Migration a Death Blow to the EU?

save the frogs · yesterday at 11:57 AM1 day

Recent migrant issue in Spain could be a catalyst for the EU crumbling, according to this guy. Because once these illegals get citizenship in Spain, they can move to any other EU country. And there may be backlash from other EU countries. There already is some backlash. Meloni has suspended the Shengen free movement with Spain. This guy is predicting the EU may crumble because of this crisis. Then each country would be free to create their own immigration policies and not be dictated by E

Egg on the Faces of MAGAs

Wingate · yesterday at 03:05 AM1 day

Well, it’s over, and don’t the MAGAs and their State Media look silly. Yup, charges have been dropped against those who were erroneously and stupidly charged with vandalizing the Reflecting Pool. Some adult in the White House finally admitted the fault for the disaster sits squarely and solely with the Trump donor who won the $15 million no bid contract to ostensibly clean the pool. I saw on Fox (Comedy Channel? It’s certainly not a news network) that (comedian) Jesse Watters repeatedly ran

Transgender woman removed from female nudist beach in Switzerland

EVENKEEL · July 27Jul 27

Listen to entire video is a must. At first it's amusing then it becomes a head scratcher. Why is common sense so scarce these days? Does anyone here feel a man has a right to go to a female nudist beach and join the fun simply by saying they identify as a woman?

Jingthing replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox

That's a very obnoxious slice of toxic rhetoric. However as you're talking about why people retire abroad, it is true that a top reason for a large segment of people is geographical arbitrage. They may or may not be able to afford to retire at all in their home country, but the goal with geographical arbitrage is to get the proverbial more bang for the buck elsewhere. That can be done domestically to a certain degree by moving to cheaper at home places. Thailand is indeed on the list of such countries. It's not a matter of expectation. It's still a matter of economic reality even though Thailand has gotten a lot more expensive. Other major target countries like Ireland and New Zealand aren't.

GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub

In my view, I am able to enjoy a far clearer perspective on the world, from inside my house. Those living in the world, fully engaged, are entirely unable to remain objective. I, on the other hand, stand apart, aloof and unbiased. I can see and identify the Maniacs others may not.

Ukraine is winning the war

Jingthing replied to Jingthing's topic in The War in Ukraine

The curious case of the respected academic Mearsheimer getting it wrong about Ukraine again, and again, and again, and again, and again. You can't accuse him of being a useful idiot for Putin or a deliberate propagandist either but Professor Gerdes suggests a credible theory of why he is the way he is and he isn't even able to change.

I have a US Bank Annuity that I will have to move to an international bank as I am moving permanently from US to Thailand and US Bank won't accept a Thai address. I'm not looking to generate monthly income, just a 100% safe bank to park it and grow at a fixed rate. Any recommendations?

Shopee ordering problem

unblocktheplanet · 10 hours ago10 hr

When I hit "Pay now" on Shopee, I get a QR code. This old Luddite doesn't do QR codes--my mobile is not connected to the Internet. There is a drop-down menu which includes my choices: Cash on delivery or Credit cards. Clicking on them doesn't work. Anybody else have this problem? (God, I hate QR codes. Queuing behind some idiot who does have card or cash!)
