Re: Exemption of visa fees considered for European tourists

I don't there is any confusion by the military. They want to welcome well behaved, high spending tourists and to get rid of the dead wood. The illegals, those without adequate funding and the druggies.

Re: Hua Hin top 10 restaurants

My rules on Thai food.
The cheaper it is, the better it is
Never, never go to a Thai restaurants with white tablecloths.
Best ones don't have an English name, probably no English menu.
Wandering around and pointing to dishes being eaten by a Thai person is not regarded as being rude.

Re: new bar on 112??!!

Hardly a place that you would notice as you were walking by, a destination bar, I will check it out before it closes down.

Re: Are Thais tolerant or indifferent?

I think that they are indifferent to so many things. The idea that they can make a difference, change things is not in theirDNA. So why concern yourself with things, just accept them and go about your day.

Re: Weather in Hua Hin & Thailand

Is this year breaking any records, well into rainy season and I'm still watering.
Pathetic little rainfall today, what my British raised mother called --- a spit and a promise.

new bar on 112??!!

My Facebook page is awash with promos for a place called Electric Mango, but I have not heard a word about it. Portrays itself as very fashionable -- on 112 no less

Re: Hua Hin Immigration clampdown on ID and 24hr reporting

I see that visitors from China and Taiwan will be issued visas in their own countries with NO charge,,. At the same time that farang are feeling unwelcome, welcome Chinese cousins.

'Chatting to locals' in bars. That's a new concept, never done that in last decade.

Re: Thai Airlines Luggage Allowance

It seems inconsistent, I flew etihad to us, was charged for first bag going there, but not returning. I rarely check a bag and the charge reinforced my resolve not to do so again.
