Re: Thai Minimum Wage Increase
Who actually polices payment of minimum wage. I've seen all of the minimum wage for 10 provinces raising to 400฿/day propaganda. However, I still see advertisement after advertisement on Social Media offering jobs in Hua Hin for between 300 and 350฿/day. How do they get away with it? I think the mi...

Re: Thai internet speed problems
There was/is a cable break somewhere west of Singapore. Cable name is SEA-ME-WE 5. This will only affect international traffic though.

Re: How can Thailand curb its appalling road fatality rate?
^^ When I drive to and from Bangkok (admittedly not that frequently) I usually see highway patrol cars, and sometimes motorcycles, on Rama 2 Road (in Samut Songkhram mostly) having pulled over a truck or pickup. There aren't many of them, granted. But they do have the duty to make sure that trucks h...

Re: How can Thailand curb its appalling road fatality rate?
The traffic cops here do not patrol or police the roads to make them safer as they do in most countries; they lurk under trees at roadblocks, nabbing passers-by for easy money. This is why they'll ignore obvious traffic violations as it isn't their job to give a shit about dangerous driving; they'r...

Re: The Beer Thread 2
The Beer Lao IPA is much better IMO ... but double the price. Thanks. I'll try the carabao if I see it, but won't go out of my way. 60ish baht for 330ml beer lao isn't too bad. I just tried the Tawandaeng (TD) IPA side by side with the Lao IPA. The Lao is 5% and the TD is 5.5% I prefer the flavour ...

Re: Doctors warn of hot summer heatstrokes
42C in Ratchaburi yesterday. It was quite windy, but the wind just forced the heat onto us. It's hotter (imho, based on the thermometer at the front of the house, in the shade). But the kite flying season (wind) seems longer this year and, together with the heat, dries your sweat faster making you ...

OK then. [emoji106]
I have a theory about the original rubbishy email address and how it could be real. But I'm probably wrong so I won't share. Enjoy your stay in Ratchaburi.

This one looks real. I've had notifications from Agoda like this. It's their approved way for hotel and customer communication. This is from Tara Spa Ratchaburi.Big Boy wrote:I've been getting messages from these guys as well ธารา สปา ราชบุรี <notifications@agoda-messaging.com>
