Thailand: What's it like living in Thailand?:
First a big thank you for the young lady and her workers
who created this free information portal. It is an incredible Internet asset. As it does an enormous task for so many with such panache.
Then an answer to Mr Arron on his personal assessment of Thailand.Having lived here for the past 14 years. I can also make comparisons with Spain 6 years USA 3years Mexico 2 years and 20 years my UK country. I feel qualified to put in my threepenny worth of assessment.
My home is in Theon in the province of Lampang and 2 hours from Chainagmai. It is a town of 64,000 people. Where I could lift it up and place it in any of the above Countries I would do so. The Thai people are outstanding for friendship-caring-spiritually activated. Each week
we will find fresh fruit bananas-mangoes or others of which I never know the name.Hanging on our door. Annually a string is encircling our house and linked to our neighbour thence on to the next house so the whole community is linked. How is that for a Spiritual idea. No words to make one fall asleep in an un comfortable pew as a same-same talk is offered weekly. Annually here the whole town is on the move calling upon the elderly people who will accept the basket of gifts, then recite words from their Buddhist Watt. In Sanskrit of which they do not understand but just know it has value for their visitors. In the Eight years here I have never seen a fight-argument or stress making sight. Please Mr Aaron do take your untruthful dreadful-insights away perhaps to Israel.

Thailand: ATM:
A note here on this excellent resource for expats and would be expats on the ATM facility here in Thailand.
The statement made that no charge is made on ATM for USA debit Cards.
That is not true: $5.00 is the set fee or 150 Baht. on any amount exchanged.
The banks made this hike about 2 years ago.. Advice: use the debit card at all times where accepted by suppliers. at no charge
The bankers also require a disclaimer on the added fee they make on the currency rate at transfer time.
Again many thanks to the young lady who put this awesome 'Expat Exchange programme together. I just wish I had used my PHD task in a similar fab. idea.
