Re: Electronic cigarettes/vapes in Hua Hin and Thailand

All laws in Thailand are subject to interpretation by the police and those interpretations are influenced by the amount of money offered.

Re: Creating Long-Term Alzheimer's care for myself in HH

Look up Senior Housing in Hua Hin, they have several websites and at least one of them deals with care for Alzheimer's patients.

Re: Hua Hin dual-track rail project to go ahead

I'm still of the belief there is no logical solution to the Hua Hin East and Hua Hin West problem. Even if there is a solution, it must be several years away. The only solution I can think of is a series of traffic lights, which as well as controlling traffic, will have to be coordinated to the rai...

Re: Thailand tourism situation

Why the Thais are confused is beyond me. The government directive was given out from October 1st (I believe). They're pretty quick to believe other information given by the government. All they have to do is view the rest of the world where masks have been lifted. Why they still have the 'need' to ...

I must have meant Soi 59. I think that Soi exists.

Yes, the maskless tourists are everywhere and the Thais are confused about whether to wear a mask or not.

Re: Hua Hin dual-track rail project to go ahead

Don't hold your breath. The tracks aren't even as far North as Soi 55. It's just a torn up mess and looks like a bomb dropped.

Re: Pattaya is Free of Sex Workers

The article says that they didn't find any. Not the same as there are none.
Unless you're being solicited you can't prove someone is a prostitute and I'm sure the ladies weren't soliciting the poleece.

Re: Thailand tourism situation

Flights are at least twice the price that they were pre-pandemic. The younger generations were hammered financially by the lockdowns, and only a small few still have the money to afford what is now an expensive long haul holiday. Retirees did not feel the economic pressure so much, thanks to their ...
