  1. They probably want to sell you suits at their tailor shop. Other such patterns are saying: "You're a lucky man", or: "Come to my shop for free fries."
  2. Yes, Thailand is a country attracting tourists and expats. What always helped me to cope with Thai's attitude, was sometimes just leaving for 6 or 12 months. And the Thai IOs seemed happy too, that, for once, I spent my money someplace else...
  3. May he R.I.P. But no, they will either say it was a 'misunderstanding', or 'suicide' by the Swiss... - With all the publicity about Swiss citizens in Thailand, perhaps some Swiss will think twice before booking a holiday here in the near term.
  4. You should have seen me when I came to Thailand for the first time; Waiing everyone and eager to learn the language... That changed when, back in 2002, thanks to big T., people's attitude changed dramatically. I've been to Oz thrice, and, it's always magical to touch down there.
  5. (Most) Thais will never understand, or respect the way of foreigners. They are not interested in them at all, but only in their $$$$...
  6. Not to mention that, oftentimes, I see torn and colour-faded Thai flags. Where is the pride in that?
  7. Yes, and I would bet that one or the other Thai misbehaves abroad too; not that any Thailand-based media would report about such incidents objectively...
  8. Another Swiss, and here on retirement? If there is a crackdown on long-term visas soon, what are the odds that we have to thank those two perpetrators and the highly publicised incidents?
  9. If in doubt, label all foreigners criminals... "Land of Smiles"; yeah right!
  10. "Appealing interest rates" offered by Thai banks?? Is it April Fools' Day aiready?
  11. I always thought such a fee would be calculated into the exchange rate.
  12. Great, so as a foreign(er) devil, can I easily get a "travel card" from my bank? Using my Thailand-issued debit card abroad proved very useful for me recently, but I guess it's back to carrying cash...
