Hua Hin Forum

It’s definitely an improving situation for the agricultural sector; prices are being driven up by demand for crops such as cassava and cane sugar that can be used for ethanol production and increasing demand from rising markets in countries like China. It certainly helps people in rural areas and ...

Speaking of mosquitoes, isn’t that the place where King Mongkut caught the malaria that killed him in the 19th century?

...before performing sex acts too vile to print in this newspaper.

Too vile for the Sun, the man must be depraved!

Caller, I go to Nong Ki which is about 90km South-East of Korat and I’ve been doing it in about six hours of actual driving. That’s steady driving as well; I don’t like to drive like a lunatic. Obviously you can add on whatever breaks you want, I normally stop twice on the way down as I’m no...

Caller, you'll be happy to learn that the drive from Korat to Hua Hin has got a bit easier since the Bangkok ring road was completed. As you're heading South look for the signs for the Eastern ring road, Pattaya and the airport, then follow that around the city and over the new bridge until you hit ...

Haven't they got anything better to do? It's not exactly one giant leap for mankind is it!

What amazes me is that the voters, poor bastards, haven't realised just how much he screwed em. When I'm up in Mrs S's village in Issan I hear about how great he was from the locals....but ask them what exactly he did for them and they start scratching their heads...the village still doesn't have a...

If I’m thinking of the right place, there is a local restaurant in front of the first house to the left of the entrance.

Don’t forget that a large number of Thais, particularly from rural areas are still great believers in the Buddhist faith. My partner has often explained to me the fate of people whose lifestyle inflicts harm on others, such as ripping off your farang husband. Basically this means that depending on...

They definitely look like they need horses in that shot, it must be from playing that Afghan game where you play polo with a dead goat.
Incidentally did you notice the sub-heading-“Bend it in Baden-Wurttemberg.â€

He you are BB; it wasn’t a tour as such, more of a training camp for the national team:http://www.spiegel.de/international/ger ... 98,00.html

I’ve just had a look around the net during an idle moment and I can now tell you that there are over 500 women registered as players in Afghanistan with 23 female clubs in Kabul. Last year the women’s national team lost 1-0 in the final at a competition in Pakistan where they were playing as gue...

Personally I think it will be better having Samak Sundaravej as PM instead of the junta as long as he doesn’t do too much. Any form of Democracy will bring some stability to the country and Samaks only job is to face off the powers behind the coup. The problems will begin if he decides that he rea...

And I’ve just checked on a ticket I bought the other day, and there is a separate tax charge of 13.55 euros which is about 700 baht.

Certainly for the last two or three times I’ve been back through Bangkok I’ve not paid the 500 baht on departure.
