Hua Hin Forum

I see the Thais are now saying that the Cambodians always stip up the border issues when there are big domestic problems at home, to divert attention away from the issues they are getting flak about. I think that is working equally for the Thai Govt. as well.

but looking them up, it certainly does look like things aren't exactly going to plan. Factory closure, sales plummeting, problems with supply chains..... Is the EV market simply saturated with Chinese products? I seem to remember the building/construction sector getting massive support from the Chi...

Is 18th good?

Another factor, is what visa you are here on? OA requires insurance from an 'approved' list of companies, otherwise the extension isn't allowed. The cost seems to be be incremental, in that it remains the same for a 5-year period, once a trigger point has been reached, 50, 55, 60 etc. Well that's my...

DB my mate recently flew Brisbane /Bkk on jetstar and he was hoping to do it again next March... no longer. According to this part of the report, international flights in and out of Oz are continuing: "Jetstar Airways’ international services in and out of Australia will also remain unchanged.&...

It looks like there's been a change of plan about immigration moving to the 3rd floor. Having nothing better to do, I wandered up there the other day just to see what was on the 3rd floor now. First thing I noticed was the immigration sign previously there, had gone. Then I noticed a sign saying tha...

Not me.

Thanks for the update, all looks good here.

I think, from reading the report in the BP, that safety standards are non-existent!

I'd rather have him back at Chelsea than Sanchez!

I'm still waiting for the Thai Baht to collapse!

A question for any electrical "experts". During that bombardment my place had 5 very short power cuts(a few seconds). I've noticed in my garden there is a large palm tree with one of the branches in contact with the power line into my home.(too high up for my step ladders to reach) Could ...

Don't know what's happening elsewhere in Hua Hin, but we have just been subject to a massive bombardment of rain here. Not often it is so heavy for such a long period. Think I'll give driving to town a miss!

One bit I didn't like was the chocolate section. It really hurt walking past, and having to keep both hands on the wheelchair. However, I was naughty, and did p-p-pick up a couple of packs of Penguins :oops: I think we saved enough on our shop to pay for the Penguins. Thats a slippery slope, BB. I ...

^So I shouldn't buy a car until Thailand produces its own? Buy what you like! But I think your point is missing the point. The question is how on Earth has Thailand got into a situation where it enables a foreign business to relocate here without any discernible benfit to the host Country? Apart fr...
