Re: Have you decided to leave Thailand and/or Hua Hin?

Very interesting comments SJ, but I must say it sounds with some bitterness. I made my original post against what the topic is rather than yours which is just trying to prove someone else wrong, why not stick to topic? I did not say there was nothing wrong with Belize, where in the world is there so...

Re: Have you decided to leave Thailand and/or Hua Hin?

If you equate people who spend their lives whingeing with those trying to make Thailand a better and safer place to live, then I suppose you're right. Is someone really thinking they as a Farang are here trying to make Thailand a better and safer place Thats a bit high and mighty to be thinking that.

Re: Have you decided to leave Thailand and/or Hua Hin?

I made my choice, Hua Hin/Thailand was not the place for me permanently, had a good time when I was in HH and still enjoy visiting now and then, some good friends here. Oh I forgot the immigration farce of Thailand; how could one not enjoy that. Belize obtain a 30 day visa, extend to one year, depos...

Re: Have you decided to leave Thailand and/or Hua Hin?

That is totally incorrect, there are posts all over the forum from people who have had the same. Police stop people and blatantly demand money.

Re: Tour guide education criteria lowered

A friend of mine has a daughter at Uni in Thailand, she is studying International Hotel Management and guess what, she only speaks Thai and there is no requirement for her to speak another language.

Re: Have you decided to leave Thailand and/or Hua Hin?

I must say that I most likely fall into the first category. It was not intentional but I went to visit a friend overseas and surprisingly liked it so much I have stayed on. During my time away from Hua Hin I have contemplated much and I only express my opinion. Thailand has many many things going fo...

Re: Getting divorced, HELP

Give the guy a break, he is going through a tough time, probably doesn't want to hear that his missus did things wrong behind his back and is very hurt. My take on the tone of his post at the end of page 3 he seems stressed out. Give support not deride the guy. I went through a divorce in Thailand a...
