Re: Three Drown in Nightmare Holiday at Hua Hin Beach

Thai laws and regulations seem to be of an indicative nature as long as there's nobody to enforce them.

Re: Thai tourist police targeting 'coloreds'

"And Huahin residents look down upon Pattaya addicts.."

And rightfully so !! (humor may apply).

However, on a serious note, I don't agree on any of the above can be described as "racism". "Prejudice" may be appropriate.

Re: Finding a regular Thai girlfriend in Hua Hin?

I cannot understand why you do not treat HH the same as any other world city - surely all the places where ladies work such as shops, restaurants, hairdressing etc etc would be the place.

In-grown Toe Nail

I am in pain and agony over an in-grown toe nail. Can anyone recommend a fast and good cure or a doctor who can do something quick before it turns into an infection? No - I don't want to go to the hospital to have the nail removed :(

Re: BOT Unexpectedly Cuts Key Interest Rate to 1.75%

The Thai Baht follows the U.S. Dollar. That cannot last - the Thai economy is just not that strong.

Thailand may be in for another devaluation soon. Keep you fingers crossed - it cannot happen soon enough.

Re: Why are there no Go go Bars in Hua Hin?
