Ladybars instead especially love them as they are the easiest to rip off

When I finally got to the desk, I was informed that the deposit account is a 6 month account paying 0.7% ..... the 1.10% and 1.65% accounts are for THAI's ONLY. Buy property funds quoted on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. They have a dividend payout of about 8% , and that's the same for Thais and f...

One thing though that I find annoying is, if I buy 10 beers, 10 lady drinks and ring the bell once, when check bin and I don`t leave a tip, I`m still kee neao. Of course, the more you give, the more they demand. Next time buy your beer at Tesco, and when you feel the need of a blow job give a call ...

Kuhn Paul and BKSTAN, I could not agree with you both more. Another travesty is the recent phenomena of village girls now growing up - no scratch that - being raised with the ambition of finding and marrying a foreigner as a career objective. I know of several just in my wife's village. These are l...

Officially, according to the law any person under the age of 18 is a minor and thus relationships or sexual contacts with them are forbidden to adults . So if a 17 years old boy has a 16 years girlfriend that's ok, but when he turns 18 and becomes an adult if he goes on shagging his now 17 years gi...

we are talking about those who have a closed door policy, you have to knock to gain entrance and that is granted only if you are acceptable . it is these establishments who have the illegal ages of the young ladies from the neighbouring country. Most farangs do not know or probably don't ask where ...

Why do you want to watch out for them ? Are you afraid to get raped ?

I bet you were jumping for joy when you woke up the next morning and found that 10baht coin still in your pocket. Indeed if he had woken up with a 20 baht note in his pocket instead of the 10 baht coin it would have been even better. I really do not understand you guys with your tip mania , when yo...

As of a couple of weeks ago Vientiane did not need an air ticket for a tourist visa. You need a copy of the "information" page of your passport, plus a copy of the Laos entry stamp, plus (from memory) 1 photo and the baht!!! They just ask for the main passport page now. Instead they ask for 2 photo...

Thanks to everybody for the anwers, considering bamakmak states the airport is not too far from everywhere in Udon, I was thinking to use the site sponsor Udonmap Residence, which should be near the bus station (and considering what's happening at Suvarnabhumi airport, perhaps I will have to take th...

Now I am in Vientiane waiting for visa process. I was uncertain on travel times so did not plot in advance the return itinerary.

From Udon Thani Airport to Nong Khai: 1. Air-con limousine mini buses run in sink with all airline arrivals and cost around 100bt to Nong Khai town center, the journey takes under 1 hour. Just the info I needed for my Vientiane visa run. Thx for posting such stuff. ;) They now charge 80 baht to go ...

Time ago it was issued the rule that to request a tourist visa you had to show an air ticket exiting Thailand to the Embassy. Yet when I requested a TV in Phnom Pehn past May and in Saigon past August they did not ask for it. Do you know if Vientiane Embassy asks for such an exit air ticket or what ...
