You have dark circles around your cheekbones. You may be suffering from clogged arteries or heart disease. You should go get your health checked.
It's not a 3rd world country, it's a developing one, but it needs to clean up the thousands of tangled up street cables.
10:20 หากคุณเลือกเดินทางในช่วงเวลาที่การจราจรติดขัด และอาจใช้เวลานานกว่าปกติบนถนน ราคาจะเพิ่มตามความต้องการของผู้ใช้บริการ ความต้องการ 100คน มีรถเพียง20 คัน ราคาจึงแพง คุณลองใช้บริการ GRAB 3.69 กิโลเมตรช่วงเวลา 03.00 คุณจะเห็นความแตกต่าง
2:05 การเดินทางปกติ จะมี2ทางเลือก 1.เส้นทางปกติ (ด่านล่าง) ไม่เสียเงิน 2.ทางด่วน(ด้านบน)เสียเงิน หากคุณเร่งรีบเพื่อหลีกเลี่ยงรถติด ใช้ตัวเลือกที่ 2 ไม่ใช่ทุกคนที่ต้องจ่าย ขึ้นอยู่กับคุณจะไปเส้นทางปกติ หรือเส้นทางที่ไวกว่า
They got me with the bus scam 🤦🏻♂️
I think you cannot just by objects such as buildings, skyscrapers. It does not tell anything. Bureaucracy , politic and justice process. This one is a thing to tell a country is a developed country or an undeveloped country.
I got kicked out of a taxi cuz I told him that the meter is running but we weren't moving. My goodness🙄!
In Canada, where I live, it is hard to make friends when you are not white. People often don't want to get to know you, they don't invite you to parties or social gatherings, and they rarely approach or talk to you first. It is a lot easier to make friends with other non-white people here. Some young guy told me that he never hangs out with "foreigner". A representative at Big Brothers Big Sisters responded to me that they don't have any asian or black kids for me to mentor as a Big Brother. I am quite shocked with those comments from white Canadians. I feel that Thailand is more welcoming to foreigners than Canada.
My official airport taxi driver had the meter covered with a cloth so I couldn’t see it. Paid 600TB. I now know, this is too much. But I thought it was legit because I got the expensive SIM card which I mathed was around $35-$40. I was like “oh a long taxi ride from the airport during rush hour on sukhumvit road would totally be at LEAST $20 in america. My 600thb was about $13. A scam? maybe. bank breaking? no.
definitely just got taxi scammed… yikes. I think I paid 10x reg price
Bolt is always cheaper than Grab
Great tips man! Thanks for sharing this 🙏🏼✈️
I got scammed... by the Thai military dictatorship (i.e., "Mr. Happy")... for maintainjng a safe deposit box, was charged with : 1.) money laundering 2.) tax evasion "They" extorted maximum from me (essentially everything) -- such a corrupt country... love the Thais, but the government [ ? ] 😐
thanks. its not worth it just to have a sex and later get sick the the deadliest and shameful dieses
Hey! Nice video, thank you for the info. I had a question regarding Grab. We have it in our country and my bank account is linked to it; will this work in Thailand? Or will I need a new account for Grab thailand? Thank you for all your help!
I was there on vacation and no thanks I will never live there
Wow! Thank you for the tips. I have now 34 reasons to avoid Thailand. Most likely scammers are just waiting for you to arrive.
Thanks for sharing this
Thaifriendly.. Just got asked by a 45yr old Lady that is looking for a boyfriend.. i mean serious?!
As a Thai person, I think that Thailand is a developed country so far. For the following reasons: 1.) More than 30 years ago, I went to Europe. We accept that Thailand is an undeveloped country. Because European people say Thailand has a small airport. There is no electric train network. There are a lot of poor people who are starving. Doing agriculture using human labors. 2.) Currently, Thailand has Modern electric trains covering all areas of Bangkok. There is a big airports, there are 20 airports in nationwide in Thailand. Easy travel with 4-8 lane roads connecting every province. No Thai people go hungry. Thailand produces so many food products that there is surplus to sell abroad. Thai people do agriculture with machines and technology. 3.) Income of Thai people, on average, has income in baht currency that can be used to buy food for every meal. It is enough to use for living. Can be used to take care of everyone's health. The cost of living Thais is not high. So that Thailand is a developed country . Is it True? P.S. To taking Thai people's income in baht and converting it to dollars and then you saying that Thai people are poor and have low incomes is a very very wrong logic. This type of wrong way of thinking logic should be completely removed from this world economics.
Hi, I would like to ask you. I am hiv + from Indonesia and want to work in Thailand. Can I take ARV medicine in Thailand? Thank you.

You can own a condo and you can buy a house or villa with a 30 year lease on the property which can be extended 2 times plus you can leave it for your children.

Thailand will be the financial center in future....The role model of the new world ... This is the truth .... we have a great king ...Freedom~ 10:22 ..neverbeen colonized from Western evils that's why we are still unique..and rich of culture in the modern city

I sated at Hotel Lilley in Bangkok I hotel registration taxi and meters taxi Police check whether Taxi meter opened if not fined I went in Prayah River from Bangkok to 10 miles to see Buddha Temples
I am Sarath Dassanaike from Sri Lanka I visited Thailand 🇹🇭 twice Its a beautiful loving city with many Buddha Temples and Stupes and Train and high ways I went to Authuya Buddha Temples and old kingdom
I urge you all to heed Cal's warning and confirm that he is right. Because I am Thai and still need to be careful of Thai people scamming me. Thank you for the video.

How to avoid Taxi scam : just use uber
Nope. Noone in this world can stand UP over the RULES and TREND by your 4legs. We all became slaves from time to time. Significantly, since black Olala to white Bipolar today --- ALL slaves are under 4legs GOOD. Thailand is under American's PETs:- red DOTs++ like Taiwan, Filipino, Ukraine ++ It's a slavery RULE from your FEET centers. I met an American moving to here since the first of Obama, he might get it that your COVID could come here and we are still dying from its complications, no MONEY and no MAN at all
