Dutch Expat Nabbed With Cocaine Tucked Away........

2012-05-09 14:39:14

Two things occurred to me when reading this story:

i - The lengths people will go to in order to remain solvent in SE Asia.

ii - The Indonesian newspaper journalists seem to have a better sense of humour than those employed in Thailand, certainly the expat newspapers in Pattaya anyway.

I'm not sure I was that gutsy when I was a student.

Bbc Doc. On Bangkok Riots 1 Yr Ago

2011-09-06 09:09:52

I was in Jakarta over the week-end. Whilst there I watched a documentary on the BBC World channel on the Red Shirt riots in Central Bangkok; follow-up investigation into the shootings and the recent elections.

It covered a lot of familiar ground but did have some interesting interviews with some of the key players plus the victims families (whom I had not seen interviewed before).

Presented by Feargal Keane it left rather a large number of questions unanswered.

Was this programme shown in Bangkok ?

Bangkok Agent For Chinese Visa

2011-08-17 07:52:44

Next month I will be in Thailand for about a week and need to apply for a Chinese Business Visa.

I will have the neccessary letter of invitation, flight tickets, forms etc. but I would like to spend most of this week outside BKK and do not want to visit the Embassy in person.

Can anyone recommend a reputable agent in Bangkok that can process this application for me ?

Lower Sukh area would be even better.

Thanks in advance,

Simon

Pattaya Marathon 2011

2011-01-26 13:15:35

Can anyone advise a firm, scheduled date for the Pattaya Marathon in 2011.

I think it is usually held during the 2nd or 3rd week of July but I re-collect that this local event may be combined with an Asian championship event this year.

I want to have a crack at this race so would like to know the date to do some longer-term planning and start my 18 week training schedule at the right time.

Thanks in advance,

Simon
