Re: Dual-pricing for foreigners now legal at Thai public hospitals
By why just hospitals,we could have farang gasoline pumps at 50b a litre,electricity meters at 10a unit,FAT (farang added tax) at all check outs and payment centres,zero interest bank accounts.even Thai airways who are going down the pan could start dual pricing. I best stop there before someone in ...

In the last twelve months the spot price of gold has increased by about twenty five percent. My guess is that the recent gold ...

Re: and you thought prices were high in Udon
Only time will tell,the baht-pound today is at a low ive never seen before (Bkk bank fx) and it don't look like stopping. Yes Thailand is cheap if you go native and live like a Thai but most of us haven't moved to Thailand to do so. I'm sorry but I think there are more people moving out of Thailand ...

Re: and you thought prices were high in Udon
I seem to remember there's a scale that is used to give an general cost of country by country where they use the cost of the Big Mac meal.most of us probably use beer prices as we drink and at Thai prices it's a big part of the budget.

Re: Mass shooting in New Zealand mosques
I don't know what all the fuss is about.theres probably 50 people a day beheaded with a blunt knife in the name of Islam.
What pees me off is we are going to have this news stuck all over the media for the next couple of weeks when there's more important issues like brexit.
