Restauraunt as a Business
And it might be advisable to see how much ‘tea money’ the local bill are going to want, when they inevitably come a knocking. It’s usually paid on a monthly basis. -

News Forum - Nationwide daily minimum wage to be raised to 400 baht tomorrow
That is true and of course unfair, but, compare to the UK, where illegals are paid to do no work and housed in up rated accommodation, fed and watered, well, here, at least they can make some kind of living, even though they have entered illegally. But yes, still unfair. -

Restauraunt as a Business
There are thousands of expats that buy into a restaurant business, usually to provide employment for their Thai family, rarely, I would say, as a long term, profitable investment. I know quite a few around my way. The only ones that 'appear' to be making money, are high (ish) end, great location, expat rich environment, such as around Mabprachan Lake in Pattaya, or beach side in Bang Saray. Even then, I doubt they are living on any profits they make, bar maybe a couple. They also seem to change hands remarkably often. I would say that unless you have long experience in that industry, the chance of running a profitable restaurant business in Thailand is low indeed. -

News Forum - Phuket outcry after drunk foreigner drives SUV into Bangla Road
Don't Thais sit the same licence tests as foreigners in Thailand? Therefore they too should be aware of the legal requirements to wear a helmet. As Ram stated, it's a revenue gathering exercise. No more and no less. Why dont they stop locals at the checkpoint? Possibly cause the locals don't have money to pay the fine. Therefore what's in it for the RTP? -

News Forum - Pet peeve turns deadly: Feud erupts in central Thailand bloodbath
Most people are either cat or dog people. Dogs can be trained and owned. Cats not so much. I'm a dog person and detest cat krap anywhere near my home. I'll start dry retching if I ever smell it. Although I don't hate cats, if they're not about that's ok by me. Dogs no matter how vicious they may look don't bother me. I can judge which are approachable and those you leave alone. Getting back on topic... this is way over the top. A dogs yard is just that. Fair game if any other animal crosses it. We have 2 adopted dogs, they aren't vicious at all but are great watchdogs. Anything that comes into the yard, we are alerted. More so after dark. Great with snakes and once even found a large turtle!
