So farang alley is being torn down and all the businesses opposite the complex moved out weeks ago to alternative premises. But in the middle of all the rubble Mr. Tong's Bar still stands and is open for business as usual. I wonder why Mr. Tongs is the only business allowed to stay while all other businesses have been told to leave. :?

Yes,it amazes me that people sit and have a drink amongst all the debris.
You might as well buy a couple of Beer Changs from 7/11 and drive out to the rubbish tip and drink them there ! #-o

Ah trubrit thanks for your chastisment, doine normally by my peers, as you are not my peer, i will treat it by ,putting it in the docket marked, Advers comments ( person unknown)
What I wrote was in the supposed general knowlefdge sphere, facts have be bandied about the purchase, land and family for years. my info comes from govt officals as well as friends ( Thai)
We all make comments and some are true others are tongue in cheelk others are probably wrong, but most of us treat them with contempt. it is rare for one person to attack another which you have done.

In your post you refer to hardening of attitudes is not aimed at those who are here legally and enjoy life here, but those who by their personal ethics spoil it for us. Immigration flouting, child perversions, drugs, drink, anything that upsets Thai karma.
As for checking by govt officals, , believe it if you wish to, when I speak to my friends ( some very very influential in Udon), they have no knowledge, but they occasionally read Thai sites which reference this site and then the proverbilal can hit the fan.

Intelligent Thais understand the frredoms of chat /talk sites, some do not like it but they exist, the fact they tried to stop Youtube I think it was is an indication of their nationalistic views on some subjects, however in the main they operate a 'Jai dee' atiitude.
I read your posts with interest but the bais is there.
integration in Thai life is hard for us all, some do it better than others, it is not just the family but life in general, how many of you belong to a club or society that has thais and farangs in. How many involve yurselves in a Thai business ( not family)where your input is accepted and in some cases chersihed.
I have gone to many Govt events and met many people here form law enforcement to factory owners and Govt officals, none hold the attitude that farangs are a problem or wish them gone. But we do sometimes shoot oursleves in teh foot as I was reminded by a senior immigration offical a year ago. Talking about a farang that was obtuse, angry and unhelpful, hence immigration could not help him. I had no names, but is was an interesting problem.
So be careful who you attack on this site, i do not attack just state the obvious, if you do not like this post, that is your decision.

Wr sometimes feel the urge to chastise another, but as you do not know me nor i you I do feel the need to chastise just advise, how you take is your decision.
have a good ady and yes i have kids hee, and a wife and clubs i belong too and many other things that in some cases try to help the farang community.
You ??

Hi Guns, your a genius, not only have you made me break a vow to remain quietly in the background from now on, after an amicable exchange of PM's with Admin and a Moderator, but you have given me the biggest laugh of the day.Let me explain. Today in England it is Fathers Day and my 50 year old daughter sent me a card addressed to DADDY. I thought that was real cute. Then I read your post and I haven't stopped laughing since. I won;t explain but I am sure someone else may enlighten you. Neither will I reply to your implicit How about YOU question. Its all on the forum history somewhere.But thank you once again for brightening my day, say hello to your influential friends for me, maybe I will see you around City Hall one of these days.

I guess when you have friends in high places your better than most / the kids I grew up are either dead in jail or in the WPP LOL / would you believe one even became a catholic priest / I guess some people just can not escape from being a snob / AMEN

It doesn't take many brain cellls to work out Ray and Val still post on the forum, look thru the posts and read between the lines.

Ray23 = B**p
Valentine = tr****it & ud***irl
Doc has moved to China

My vote goes to Doc, he always enjoyed stirring the pot and creating a lively discussion.
I would like to make it clear that although I have met Valentine and his wife Udon Girl I have no connection to either, although I must admit to sharing many of his sentiments. I see he still posts on both www.thaivisa.com
and http:/teakdoor.com as Valentineboy and so does Ray23.

So, not too worry someone laughing at my expense, glad I do not know these people whomever they may be, just goes to show what a person said about this web site seems to be true .
however I will still work to assist and help but not get into tit for tat posts withanyone.
however it sems a touch childish, when this is used for some people to seek assistance and would like straight answers. If i abuse it by being non cynical, non wind up and being straight let me apologise. but this is the way i am, hunour not directed at anyone but at the subject is ok, so I apologise and will do what I always do. those that object.
I say to you .............................. ok. :D

I am not stating that the people who post are different nor are they below me, as for plastic friends, I am sorry that comment went over my head, must be a American thing. I have had my contacts or colleagues for over 4 years now, come to think of it I have known them longer than I have used this web site.
As for placing a bet on my rectum please be my guest if that is your want, whatever turns you on dear boy.
As for my country of birth, it is certainly not yours, for which I am eternally grateful, althoguh i know many from the US of A, none like you , if thatis your mother country, but then we all have somepeople in our populations that leave us wondering.
be happy.

On March, I read a newspaper said "Central Group" from BKK taken over Chareonsri Complex. But last week I read a newspaper said "Central Group" move to Chiang Mai instead coz they don't want to invest too much money in Udon.

first of all guns do not address me as dear boy / when you do address me I am called Mr Ron by every except my friends and you are no friend of mine / I am glad your not American / no when God created me he broke the mold / but he did make a mistake when he created you some how the word snob was on his mind / Guns I will be at the next N/M meet on the first Sat of July why don't you show your ugly face at the meet you just might meet some real nice gentlemen who are not plastic / if if you don't know what the meaning of plastic is means phony through & through /
