no license plate, no name, and no photo to identify this guy. He must have been a big shot or something.

They've probably already aquired stolen passsports and fled the country

Maybe they should just ban hilly roads. It would be about as effective as anything else they say they will do to fix the problem concerning road accidents.

Let's be real for a minute, until the police can be trusted to enforce real traffic laws (I.E. speed limits, reckless driving etc. etc.) as opposed to blatantly pulling people over and demanding bribe money from people these kind of things won't stop.

I've met some middle to upper class girls with farang boyfriends and some open to dating farang, but they aren't exclusively looking for farang and they certainly won't be seen with a man 20 years older than them. They come from families with decent income and aren't looking for the free ride that a lot of girls with bad reputations seem to go after. They have a lot of options of both good looking and well to do Thai and farang so why would they limit themselves to either?

I went to the Thai Embassy in Cambodia for my Ed Visa. It took a week and the staff was absolutely rude and useless, which is why i won't use that consulate again. Phnom Pehn as a city is really nice though. If you do decide to go there be wary of the guy in uniform directly in front of the Embassy in the little empty hut, he does NOT work for the embassy and will tell you that it is closed, i went anyway and it was not in fact closed.
I've heard that they only offer a single tourist visa as others in this forum have pointed out, but Vientienne offers a double, takes a single night and is hassle free. On the other hand I had a lot more fun in Cambodia as it's nightlife seemed slightly more robust than Vientienne, not to mention the many tourist attractions and the Russian market (extremely cheap clothing directly from the source) as well, so they both have their pros and cons.

You mean to tell me that the school (Chula) whose students didn't even know who Hitler is supposed to be near the top 200 hundred schools in the world? I could name hundreds of better schools in America alone.

In 11 years, never seen, or heard anything remotely like gunfire, etc. Guess I'm lucky- according to Reuters I am living in a war zone...
In just a single year in Bangkok i was fortunate enough to at one point and time be stuck in my apartment in Ramkamhaeng for several days listening to gunshots and explosions at random hours. I can still remember the smell of the burning bus. Certain areas are warzones, you should consider yourself lucky.

The jet ski scam has been going on for years, now imagine if the police had more independance and less people to govern them. Free of repurcussion, just think of all the new scams that could take place.

It's the ketchup on the pizza that kills me. It just straight up ruins the flavor.

I would do it for 100,000 a month.

I would have stayed out of it as it's Thai on Thai. My logic would tell me that his aggression would probably increase at the sight of a farang interfering in Thai matters (as you've previously stated that he was clearly a red shirt). I would have simply observed and interfered if and only if he would have attacked them (and i honestly would have).

No one would have pushed their way through me and into my home, and if they did they wouldn't be leaving on their own two feet. I understand that this is Thailand, but letting the locals trespass into your home (or anyone for that matter) is just unnacceptable.

no pain, no gain. start slow and buil yourself up, but don't push yourself to the point where you can't exercise for more than a day.

Everything is racist nowadays. The Dunkin Donuts ad had nothing to do with the original blackface as Thai's have no idea what it is in the first place. The Chinese ad is just a kind of humour.
The question that needs to be asked is : Was it insulting anyone's race? The answer is no. They were just invoking humor in order to pitch a product. No where in the ad does it say Chinese people are bad.

Hell where can I find good Americanized Chinese food like Panda Express?
I want some General Tso's or some orange chicken so bad. It's been far too long.

i can't find that on facebook, can you give a link?

Sounds like you need a hobby

80 snipers on rooftops? that's the equivalent of an army company. Why would you need 80? The entire point of a sniper is because they can shoot well; therefore, you should only need one good one.

I've been couching up mucus a lot since New Years, but i think it might be smog related i'm not sure.

The pregnancy trick isn't exclusive to Thailand, but in fact is very common the world over. Some pregnant women even sell positive pregnancy tests in the US, especially near military bases (Fort Bragg, looking at you).
All that aside, i've heard that there are dna tests that both of you can take and mail in to see if the DNA matches. If it does then cool, congrats. If not then you won't be played like a sucker, congrats.

You might be able to find some more people on a facebook page called "desperately seeking bangkok." I'd be interested to join depending the when and wheres. I used to play the American version when i was a child.

It doesn't seem to be working. Just business as usual.
Language schools in Thailand's border provinces see spike in number of students

Having both TEFL and an English degree i would say that the TEFL provided much better training than the degree itself. To be honest, no degree in any field (even education) can make up for experience teaching in the field. Someone with a degree in education might discover that they have no classroom management skills once they start working. And if you narrow down the field to the point where only people with degrees in education can teach in Thailand, then the selection pool would be so low that those few who are eligible would then need to be paid higher salaries that most schools can't afford (supply and demand). Nearly every one here with a degree in education are already teaching in international schools making anywhere from 60,000 baht a month to 200,000+ a month.
I think the real problem here is the lack of interest from both the schools and students. They just don't care all that much.
