If you want I can book you up with a number of very good artists, Thailand is finally in the last 20 years developing a good group of top artists, for a long time it was a small rather dull establishment only, now it's quite exciting.

51? I remember when a lady older than that won the Dance competition from a bar in Nanaplaza. Pretty sure there's older girls than her working

Why not see what happens if we post about Thailand and not USA UK Australia and NZ ? Maybe get some quality posters back?

I'd post more and bring back old and new members if we got rid of all the non Thai shyte including this thread. Delete it.

Gee takes a special kind of person to flame a dead man.

A tectonic change in Thai school system
My Penis is hungry replied to think_too_mut's topic in General discussion
It was very hard for that to happen. The struggles within government where conservatives believed the poor deserves to serve the rich, and "people from Isaan too stupid to learn". That's a direct quote from a Minister to me. Adult education is another milestone that took a lot of time to make happen. Once it was legal, then the doors opened and many people went back to study as you note but for a long time it was illegal! Crazy. E-Government was illegal and the first person to do it was a young girl in an internet cafe who realised with this new thing called internet, combined with scanners and computers people in villages shouldn't have to travel to province capitals to get paperwork done. She caused a major drama in government circles by using common sense. To this day I doubt she even knows or is even remembered. A lot of the change started in the Ministry of Education with Khunying Kasema, and others, but she was particularly good. -

I don't believe you, -
The number of times my better half has been ill from eating Isaan sausage makes me think it's part of the fun. No way I'll touch it.

Bank account as tourist
My Penis is hungry replied to buffalo_bill's topic in Career/Finances/Property
If you have a correct visa no issue getting a bank account, as a tourist no. Decades ago you could convince a bank to open an account now you can't. But what would I know? So that coming from 2 diff6 family members who actually work in 2 different Thai banks. -

I remember one of the earliest versions had a bar girl beauty section, something KS came to realise was a dreadful idea soon after. 96/97 seems about right. It was a branch of from ASFO. Which oddly still limos on.

If you mean the first of us, as in Nanaplaza that would probably be Robert White who was onone of the pre veraions boards before it became nanaplaze. He wrote amazing short very short stories about walking along the river and through the markets. I won't go into his passing but had a rather sad tqist I went to his funeral in around 2000 maybe? Lao Huli (spelling?) was a good guy, I bought my first digital camera from him, it took about 30 "high rez" images on one card. Pink Flamingo was the hotel he managed. PP was a different place then. Canadian embassy had me chase down his descendents in Canada while he was in hospital who were greatly surprised he was still alive. Very fond memories.

He used to a long time ago come to the Friday meet ups. I used to meet him also for a book club and some other social gatherings.

Ahhh yes Shrimp! I'd forgotten they knew each other. Shrimp lived up the top of one of the 30's going on very old memories.
