Re: New plans for expats & visas
It will never happen. Thaksin bought in the 90 day reports because it is a cash cow in terms of late fines. Keeping paper pushers in jobs is also a priority, as is keeping tabs on all those pesky farangs that want to live here. Even those wearing the rose tinted glasses must admit the possibility o...

Re: Hua Hin Bintabaht area nightlife map update
Just an observation from today's survey. I went into the karaoke area alone - in almost 20 years of visiting and living in Hua Hin I've never been there at night. Walking through alone this morning, I really felt ill at ease walking through the dark, dingy walkway. I don't think I'd fancy being the...

Re: Poor state of the Hua Hin-Black Mountain road

AK-47 maker reveals electric car modeled after widely mocked Russian sedans It was the car that gave the Soviet bloc a bad name. At the height of the Cold War, the Soviet Union’s Moskvich sedans were lampooned in the West as some of the worst cars ever made. Which is why it’s so surprising that Rus...
