hopefully they will close down ALL the Pot-Shops. I find them EXTREMLY boring. Especially in "Party-Areas" they are always empty and stinky (even if new renovated and clean). For example SoiCowboy: it IS a Beer/Girlie/LiveMusic/DJ-Area. Cannabis-Shops are a foreign matter in those environments.

jackinthebox replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
that are whopping 20Euros for 7.4 litres. Glad I stay in germany....the litre is sold for 50-70 EuroCent here- 5.99€ for a beer crate of 20 bottles. -
oh wait- is that truly an actual picture? Are there really so many westerners now on the islands? I haven't been to thailand for more than 30 months, but from what I read according to the expats here in the ASEAN Forums everywhere it's deserted and pictures of Pataya and the islands show only empty streets. So again- ist that a "pre-covid" photo or is it 2022?

Sexy Thailand: Popular "Bikini Run" set for post pandemic comeback
jackinthebox replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It seems more like a fashion-Shooting for Puma (and Adidas maybe). Do they get the Bikinis for free? Can they keep them after the run? -
This is what happens when you lockdown Party-towns and night-time places like Pataya or Bangkok. Tourists hang out in boring places like Kanchanaburi, nothing to do after 8 pm, sitting in front of their rooms drinking for endless hours. No Bars around, no girls to meet. Just wasting time and annoying others. Until.... R.I.P.

>The expert noted as well that the outlook for vaccine manufacturers may not be as bright going forward as a consequence of this trend. What? At least for research and development it certainliy is bright. Biontech is booming here in germany (suddenly even making City of Mainz and Bundesland Rheinland-Pfalz (Rhineland-Palatinate) a wealthy state due to taxes) and you hear scientists speaking of the twenties as a "virology decade"

Truckers threaten strike if diesel prices are not pegged
jackinthebox replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Are the thai-truck drivers mostly self-employed ie. do they buy or lease their own trucks? Or are they more likely to be employed by transport / cargo companies? -
Walking Street will probably be more a "family entertainment venue" with Cabarets and some Shows. The "fleshpot nightlife zone" will move (back) to Soi Buagkaow or "Third Road. "

i wonder how easily one can become a loan shark or "work" as black bank or sell underground lottery? If you want to make cash, everybody has to fear you, you would have to be very scary and everybody should know your mafia-gang and remember some examples of your extrajudicial killings and torturing defaulting debtors, right? Otherwise you only loose money and no one ever pays you the debt. I would love to be a loan shark, but I can't even get my money back that i borrowed with no interest to thai friends or neighbours...
