  1. What about all the other western women who indulge in the business illegally ?
  2. Digital has it's advantages as it avoids getting cheated with the wrong change and avoids having to carry bags full of cash all over. But cash rules nevertheless beacause if one day somebody pulls the plug from the internet and digital networks, the cashless gurus will be left stranded in the dark of the soapy ladyboy saloon !!
  3. The chinese crooks are smarter it seems...they don't or rarely get caught !!
  4. Why such hate ? Far more fun to rant behind the computer, comfortably in the shade near the fan and close to the pool.
  5. Not to forget the very active Chinese mafia who are taking over but as usual, very discreetly and with the usual crooked smiles.
  6. Fresh water or sparkling water, chilled but not frozen. That's the best thing you can give your body. Keep the booze for night cap, after sunset.
  7. Many foreigners do not get the aspect in Asian culture. if one plainly pays the overcharged price as not to appear as a cheap charlie, for sure, you get all the simles and waïs on leaving, but in their minds, they will be saying "man what a fool to have paid out just like that", On the other hand if you bargain, haggle get the discount you are asking, sure, you will get the stern looks and long faces, but deep inside the man or woman selling will have respect for you.
  8. Time to make life easier for the retirees and allow foreigners to own at least one plot of land and commute all leasehold to freehold. As they are the the main big spenders. Not to mention making visa and various immigration issues less a pain in the neck for foreigners. If not, watch the economy to go further to it's doom.
  9. Tourists can come or not, but by far, they are not the big spenders. Those who spend the most are the people who own property and stay longer then the regular joe-tourist and his 2 week stay in a beach resort.
  10. With all the high quality fakes around, any upstart can display a genuine brand watch but everybody will consider it a well imitated fake. Same for the logo branded apparel or leather goods. So no point.
  11. All the hoards of those who got expelled in the golden days must be chuckling...
  12. Thrash can tend to be disposed off all over and anyplace, when there is no adapted and specific place to do so in the first place. Get the point ?
  13. Tried to check the local hospitals ? At worst, they may know where to direct the OP ? Not to underestimate also the info on FB and similar.
  14. Sorry for my silly question, but we are talking sceptic tanks here, right ?
  15. Very true and I think there are already commencing the new tomorrow all over Europe mainly. Fair play.
  16. Who said these biker gangs were a Sunday church choir ? All over the world, there is always a percentage of misconduct and crime, behind those fine tatooed leather clad lads, who are very brave when amongst their hoard.
  17. At the end of the day, if petty street crime continues, be it in Patts, Hua Hin or Bangkok, at some point people will plainly stop comming to Thailand.
  18. If it was only the fruit and veggies from China that were potentially contaminated, it would be a different story. Practically all chinese cheap goods that come in via Shein or similar online webstores, have issues that can be a safety hazard.
  19. Will they stop some day harassing all the foreigners living here who bring in good money ?
  20. Don't underestimate Africa and it's potential on the middle term future.
  21. Very nice, but what when one want's to cash the crypto ? Many western nations, have ruthless tax retentions on cashing crypto, so would need to watch that one, before rushing in.
  22. At first it sounded like me poop in the mornings, doing plop-plop on a good morning glory day 😁
  23. A private clinic has one main goal...money. Nothing new here. Considering many highly reputable public hospitals all over the country, I would rather check it out with their opthalmology department.
