Correct me if i'm wrong, but the impression of Siam Kia. When it comes to work, They are really lacking the ability to think out of the box.
And while i feel i am one lazy ass at times, they have a whole new level of laziness which is eye opening to me. :eek:

Agreed to certain extend.
Lucky, I just need to manage 4 local staff.
Found one of them who can understand my instructions and willing to follow. Let him guide/lead the team.
So basically, I only deal with one of them.
Especially when I'm not around at office (holidays/makan ular) someone can be monitored remotely and get the work done.
As long as jobs/work done properly with no customer complaints, I'm fine.
I don't disturb them if no work need to be done, vice versa.
Expectations can't be too high, don't use your common sense (sometimes) and slow down your pace.
Or else really miserable...

im pretty you are quite wrong on the food...;)
Thai food for tourist is anytime nicer than own food back home..
after you stay more than 6 mths...you will start to feel the kick..
you give 1 chicken to a Thai vendor, she only know how to chop it into pieces and oil fried it but if you give 1 chicken to a sg/mlysian vendor, you will see wonders from just 1 chicken...
every where you eat from roadside is just the same old kuay diao..with just that few choices of sien lek/yai, sien mee kao, bak mee..
for ours, 2 to 3 times choices...
they only can do kuay diao moo or gai or duck ...
we all have hokkien prawn mee, BCM, lor mee, mee siam, mee rebus and many more
They only have lard na, we have char mee hoon, char kuay diao, char mee, mui fan and etc...
They only know how to eat catfish and tilapia and only grilled..
our style, can use a normal fish to make a feast out of it..
Throw them a groupa or soon hock or grass fish, they stare at it in emptiness..
give them pork ribs, they know nothing, we can do bkt, XO pork rib and etc...
Thai chicken rice , the rice no flavor..chicken dry and hard..
Duck rice, only duck n rice no sauce..
char siew rice and roasted pork rice...no sauce also...
when try to order just roasterd pork and dont want rice, willing to pay more, he claimed cannot sell..i was like...:eek::confused:
its not they cant think out of the box, its they have limited Ram to process..
drink here drink there, only tom yum soup and sweet sour fish soup(catfish)...
Just throw them a menu from a chinese soup vendor from our side, they blur and stare into emptiness again...try ask them about snakehead fish soup,lotus soup, herbal chicken soup and most simple ABC soup..clueless...
we have tian ji porridge too..and Thai eat the frog without clearing the internal organs and just boiled it with their own spices...:eek:
their food in fact is very limited and always in their comfort zone...
Breakfast in thai, lagi limited...fried stuff every where or moo bin and kao niao...
we have economy mee hoon or black sauce mee with many items to choose..
also try eat their fried mee hoon here..:D totally cannot make it..
go everywhere in the market fair, everybody selling the same thing in different corners...:rolleyes:
once i made the taiwan style chicken chop
offer to my kids friends, young teenagers, all stunned like vegetables.. suprised that chicken have so big pcs and didnt know is the chicken breast meat slice in between into a bigger pcs...

conclusion, thai food really cannot fight with mlysian and sg food...

logic in thailand brings you to no where

Fully agreed... logic and common sense is rare here. I have passed the starting stage and now treat them like dogs instead of having hopes for them and funnily things got better. My starting motto is staffs first and business second thinking that staffs love the company and business will automatically be a success. These trash have to be treated like animals and they fully deserve it.

2 bros PM me regarding how to get jobs and live in thailand. My advise is don't do it, it's really not worth your time and effort. But as we know people has to get the needle in their skins to know the pain, I'm here to help give you tips and advise to avoid all those unnecessary heartache... but you have to standby to lose your hair and shorten your lifespan.

Another way is to learn how to crack software and sell them online like ebay etc... offer chargeable tech support via teamviewer and build your sales. Once your sales stable at 3k SGD you can come liao. Other than power outrage you have to suffer, you can skip all the headache of setting up a company here.

I'm so sick of thai food that I'm willing to take a morning flight to penang or KL for a lunch and dinner combo fly back the same day. Anyone think I siao? I did it before covid... I frequently drive up to BKK eat songfa bak kut teh or Boon tong kee and drive back to office. 2hrs drive but worth it.

100% agree, most (not all) must treat them like dogs and order them to do this and that.....too nice to them is not the right way, same like in Indonesia. (dog brain)



2 bros PM me regarding how to get jobs and live in thailand. My advise is don't do it, it's really not worth your time and effort..

Try to be stable in sg and fully paid off at least a HDB flat of your own, so when you come over at least have HDB rental as passive income to last you longer in Thailand.......saw so many sg sinkies come and try to live here with their mia thai or teerak, end up cannot support themselves end up need to go back sg to find job.

That will be the best way to go about... minimum have 50k baht to keep you going... after few years bored liao can relocate to viet or phil... just don't try to make a living in thailand... best is like uncle007 have HDB in SG and a few condos in CM... landlord collect rental... sibei song!

True lah... different people different taste buds.

In SG we can see 2-3 char kuay tiao under the same hawker center roof but this stall seehum more fresh and that stall chilli more power etc... each to their own customer based.

In TH 1 night market can have 5 padthai and all taste exactly the same... too salty? add sugar... too sweet? add chilli powder loh... Chicken rice meat more dry than a 75 yo grandma virginal.

As for Thai food I only like northern region dishes as have a lot of herbs and Issarn/Lao region grill pork.

Non Thai food in Thailand is expensive.

Try eating Chinese food in Yaowarat! All fake shark's fins, bird's nest and misc dishes at rip off prices! :mad:

I reckon perhaps mid 2021 then they will open for tourist and even if they do, also depends on if Singapore still implements the “come back from overseas 2 weeks quarantine, you pay yourself” if Singapore still have that, doubt anyone will come. Just imagine you come in Thailand quarantine 2 weeks you pay. You go back Singapore quarantine another 2 weeks you pay also. Not worth it.

If you are doing biz for domestic market, will not be that too hard..
Unless depend on tourists then need to go try fly kite liao...
Just like some bros, who are dealing with Thai amulets..not much affect, have also very little..
The best thing for Thai is to bring up their livestocks, vegetables and rice..all those agricultural stuffs, prepare for shortage of food domestically and for export purpose to bring up revenue for country..End of the end will start to have shortage of food world wide...watch n see...:rolleyes:

Thailand will more interested in the Chinese, Indians, Russian then the Europe, Ocenia mates and Kiwis and the last will be the Americans....

Definitely. China is an important market for Thailand..

Important..its the demand and supply things..
There are chinese company in North east area, looking for nautral resources like gas or oil or other natural resources...
In a way of joint collaboration between sino-thai...
Letting a chinese company to do this type of project, can see how they look up to China...

china is thailand no.1 tourist leh cum money laundering. :rolleyes:

but hear from some thai friends that their china "investors" went broke after wuhan virus. :eek: if Trump kana re-elected in Nov2020 hor China will jialat more. :rolleyes:

Lately hearsay from news China a lot natural disasters such as floods/rains then a lot pp unemployed also plus now CCP asking China pp not to waste food. If thailand open up travel to china pp maybe a lot chiong there to eat and live perm in thailand. :D

Not only China Laundering money in Thailand, Taiwan also and doing phone scamming in Thailand and online loan sharks and gambling too..
not only some china investors, many other foreign company also gone busted due to covid19 and so are many local thai biz too..whole fleet of vans and rental cars go busted..If trump kena re-elected, you will see 360 changes from him and become buddies with Xi..His only card left now is Anti China.
China will benefits even more from Trump is re-elected..
biden popularity by 14% ahead is now down to just 7% ahead of Trump and still have 3 mths to go.
he is the only president who will not go to War like the two bushes and Obama..but he is still a jerk though..

not only china has nautral disasters...
S.korea also flood, Japan also flood, India also flood, and india agriculture are attack by the gross hoppies creature..

Sure the vast majority of thai palate favours issan based cuisine but they sell what sells not what they can or cannot make, using your analogy i can then for example i go to singapore go up to some fat lazy singy princess type or spg throw them some prawns or daikons then see if they can know what to do with it then i can say Singaporeans dont know how to cook

kingpower late boss got bestowed a surname by the last king. with such a family name its much easier for whole family to do business in thailand.
But their fortunes have turned. The successor dont know how to run the business. Now kingpower is dying because its no longer monopoly in the thai duty free market.

The testing is just about 5000 baht to 10,000 baht maybe? Surely Thailand have good test kits able to faster test and discharge tourist to roam around freely. :rolleyes: Gen Olong Cha have good relationship with China, surely can order large quantities of test kits from China ya. :cool: 55555

This will not work. Making the tourist to be quarantined for 14 or 21days in a hotel room. People will go crazy in the room unless the person absolutely has no choice he/she have to visit Phuket.
I think the best solution would be to go for swab test upon arrival in Phuket immediately n be quarantined for 2days in your hotel room to wait for your test result. If negative, you'll be allowed to move about everywhere in Phuket n with mask on..

I hear news one of the request by the students is......... GOOD education. :eek:

But then i think about it, so what if all of them have degrees? :confused: Not all of them will have good jobs. :p

Better education , this i totally agree..
But when gov comes back and reply, gov education institutes are funded by gov from nursery to secondary(their high schools) and even some Uni are funded by Gov, there are budget restrain, there are limits to higher standards of educators for the students and even for the present teachers to upgrade themselves.
How about we start to charge students from nursery...just like Sg education systems...from start, all collect money till you wear the rode and sq hat..
What will the student say, what will the parent say...?

Better economy, better household income, better expenditure, better school, better education environment, better results, better grades, better job prospects, all are inter linked ...

Cant these student think of that when they claimed they know alot of the issue in society?
Most are self centered and everything is about themselves...only them and them..

Their ancestors and grandparents and parents has suffered more than them and still can get to what they are today, and now they only know how to cry over spilled milk...
All just know open mouth and shout, "freedom of speech and democracy" what else they can do...
when there is opposition who disagree with them and dispute their claims, and they cant reply, they start to call out names and verbally abuse or even physical attack...
only their thoughts are right, those not agree with them are all wrong...
Is that really democracy...?
They are rubbish, and will become the 2nd HKG if they dont stop it now...the sponsor for the protest are just using the same tactics as the HKG riots Sponsor, use the youth and student as shield...

Short answer is that I have to run a company here and need to manage them. Use to think that I'm just unlucky to meet a few idiots initially but after few years and changes dozen of employees, I have come to understand that it's their fundamental character that has a problem.

Bro, nothing to respect but pity instead... my experience is never to need a thai person's help... the moment you need it, your life misery is bound to start... and most of the time, you will still end up not getting the help you need.

im curious ar, ask you bro
do you have any thai friends outside of work to hang out drink or go ti kali?

Not really bro... the first year I did try to social a bit make a few thai friends but quite soon I find that they are just some "wine meat" friends out to look for free booze. Now I only have 3-4 friends which are all foreigners working in thailand which 2 are singaporeans. The only thai people I considered friends are my old neighbor that our kids study same school. They are the only ones I don't feel defensive about and contact regularly on weekends for kids to play together.

Example, happen just last month. A thai guy which regularly comes to my workplace to repair his BMW (My workplace just beside car workshop) came and tell me that I don't know how to manage thai workers. It's in the evening we are drinking some whiskey. We chat regularly but I don't consider we are close friends. He offered to manage the company for me and promise 2 million baht sales every month and ask for 100k salary. He say I don't even need to come to the office everyday... just sit back and watch him grill all the workers to work their asses off. I replied him, I pay 10% commission for freelancer. 2 million baht sales is already 200k. Why want to take 100k and manage the company for me? His reply is... NO NO NO... WE ARE FRIENDS... MONEY IS NOT IMPORTANT TO ME... I WANT TO HELP MY FRIEND.

KNN IMMEDIATELY MY HAIR STAND...I didn't even ask for help... Bro, you have no idea how many these kinda people waiting for their chance.

Oi bro, very personal question leh... LOL... thai wife lah and I'm very thankful to have her. These 3-4 years she sacrifice a lot for our little family. When we just started she is the admin/accountant/tele-marketer/translator LOL...

Funnily the first 2 years we always quarrel... I say thai people useless and she say I look down thai people... she said thailand is not SG, I cannot apply the same logic... then about 2019 we came to agreement, she run the company and I will just give advise and as long don't hurt the profit she can make the decision. Less than a year, she give up... Now she as a thai herself tell me thai people cannot trust... LOL

So in your opinion, do you think thai girls can be impatient, hot head and stubborn with their thinking at times? :confused:


This one is my observation lah... the issan girls are hotheaded but passionate... they can be cunning too. The northern ones are soft in nature till the point of naive. Believe in fairy tales love stories.

Add on advice is get those well educated girls in thailand. Better is those have a habit of reading. Beware of the fake degree holder... their stupid education system is as long sit thru the whole term can pass one... end up with degree but no brain. Find those uni graduate from a better prestige school and not those kuku pa lia countryside uni.

Example when she need to find out some information. If she directly prefer to watch a youtube video rather than read panthip, that's a danger sign. A girl with brain will read panthip then cross check with google sites...

When you ask jing lor? and she say JING.... without any supporting statement... jialat liao... meaning she's stupid but she think she's smart and expect you to believe it too. Better run. You will have a very hard time explaining logic to this person.

The above is for people thinking to find a thai wife lah... if come just for fuck then doesn't matter. Prefer the issans because more bang for your bucks... northern ones not so playful (sorry Happyman007 :D).

Humlea
15-09-2020, 02:03 PM
Your wife still not that old right 555555 cuz the impression i have about a mature thai lady boss and some lady sup (having interest in the biz) is that they mostly are seen very capable of managing people during work. Thai manage thai mah. :p

That's also another problem... she's just late 20s. Thai people like to see ranking... the Pi/Nong/Loong/Pa problem. When you call someone Pi/Loong/Pa, they think that you should listen to them instead of them listening to you. When you call someone Nong, they think they are ok to make mistakes and you should be understanding to their laziness, stupidness, etc.

Now my wife just call every staff Khun (name). Not happy fuck off. In turn slowly now everyone call her Pi. She doesn't like to do that too... but she came to understand that it lessen a lot of craps and job gets done.

Now you understand why the HiSo family so stuck up and dog eye see people low... these people have to be treated this way. The locals already knew it... just that we foreigners naive...

Thai manage thai? Better be careful... by the time you know, already lost a limb.

As for panthip i think some educated (*ahem* got study a bit b4) girls do visit to read.

Panthip are people's review... she also must have the brain to think got logic about what she read or not... mostly just trust blindly. They just FB, instagram most of time... Do you know that average user time for fb thailand users is consider 1 of the world highest. That's why when No.10 cough a bit Mark immediately delete any political post towards the monarchy. SG Loong Loong scream like a LB Mark also don't care.

If own thai wife help manage still will kana lost limb then jialat liao. :( haizzzz.

If own wife of course 放心 lah but who want to make their own love work like dogs? Not easy to manage lei... one of the problem is 家贼难防. Hand soap also can kapo go home use, toilet paper also gone. I buy those good tea set for customer use when they visit office, now only balance 1 cup and 3 saucer.

You see I rant so much sure got bro here feel CB shut up lah... so bad don't stay lah... But bro staying here know I not anyhow talk... sure everyone more or less meet the same problem. Those that didn't stay here... belum kena belum tahu...

As for the attached pics... errm... don't trust so much lah. Those filter app very kheng one. My last sales girl fb got 4,900 friends and over 10,000 followers... you see the real person hum also mai keang.

Been thru more of those common issues in Thailand and also in Jakarta, that's why I rather earn lesser (prepare to lost 10-30%) and let the local run it rather than I vomit blood kpkb everyday when I was in jkt & bkk running it on my own.

After some time of vomit blood and get angry everyday, i exchange sabai-ness with money by moving back stage, and plan some passive income just in case they tutup all my businesses...........That's why i move back to CM and living a more simple life with much lower expenses so that my rental and other passive income enough for my small family of 4. :D

i myself moved here in early 2014 after cny
1st year was really hard
it start to get better when i decide go out to social n know more people
went to small pub sit n drink alone, become good friend with the owner
slowly become friends with all the pub regular and now it feels like my own pub
luckily for me is my wife encourage me to go out n know more people
have a work life balance
after 6 year here i feel those moving here need to pass these 3 steps
Accept > Adapt > Integrate
and has to be in this sequence
if cannot truely accept the reality no way to truely adapt
cannot adapt so cannot integrate into new society

无刺激,暗淡的平凡过日子。

Anywhere in the world also same mah... as long work is a business, and business is all about solving problem... the bigger problem you can solve the more money you make. So there's only 4 kinds of workers,

1) Smart, will look for problem in the company and solve it... valuable asset in the company... every boss wants to keep.
2) Not smart, but will look for chores nobody wants to do but it's something that have to be done... boss bo bian must keep.
3) Not smart but think he smart, these are the troubles maker. They always busy the wrong things and they cannot understand the simple logic of,"It's not what you want to do, is what the company needs you to do." They always end up feeling betrayed. They so hardworking but boss don't appreciate them.
4) Freeloader, want to just park 1 side take salary and do as little as possible.

Thailand a lot of number 4 people. Don't know is they cannot understand this logic or they choose to be number 4. Need me to take aeroplane 2,000Km come here and teach meh? Every company have 3 & 4 people but when they become majority, your 1&2 will turn into bad apples.

I only manage to get number 2 which I'm happy liao. So far haven't get number 1. Some might think pay peanut get monkey... I tried to pay more... in fact 30% more than market rate. Turn out to be number 3.

Lai leh lai leh... we should connect a bit... Chan durian famous but hor, they eat durian mai suk one... for our kind sweet sweet soft soft durian they say rotten spoil liao cannot eat. Not cheap leh... 1 lok small size about 500-600 baht.

They prefer the harder meat and sweet...for us is soft meat that melt in mouth with sweet and bitter..yes to them, they label as rotten..i always order my regular vendor, to keep the over ripe(to them) one side if nobody want..i buy from him very cheap...almost their cost price..if not nobody buy they also throw away..

from my personal experience n opinion...
General Thai style comes together with how the gov structure themselves into..
1st, most Thai dont save..becos they dont think they will need to..
Education free till high school, even some Uni are subsidise and near to free also have..thats why see most children after high shcool finish Mo 6, then out of school if cannot afford Uni..
2nd Medication - sick or whatever, 30baht policy..they dont even think of buying insurance..in Sg, 10 and have 8-9 have insurance..in Thai, 10 and you be lucky to see 4-5 have insurance..
3rd Housing loan...one of the easiest way to get loan from self made paper works and get a 3million house loan..dive into heavy debts without planning..
4th Car loan..one of the most easiest way to get yourself a car in Thailand..
Even for car change of hand..if you can get hold of a car even without the car registration book, you also can sell the car off..the dealer can make a new car registration book in his way...thats why can see many in debts will go pawn their car in some ways..
5th most thai and with parent brain washing, most will like to go for the civil servant job.. the more years in it, the more you will get and most probably will get 70k to 100k thb per mth when one retire..after retire, one still take 40-50% of the previous salary as pension monthly...so no need to think about saving..
6th with point number 5, every loans they want to take as civil servant, is 99% will go tru..again in debts easily...but they dont worry too much as they always think, even retire still have money take from gov.
7th with most point added up, the new gen of Thai people with almost same mentality , starts to spend future money..with C.C, buy without much thought and planning..never worry about debts and snowball everything..they rather wish to showcase what they have and own
So they basically dont plan for future..becos take everything for granted and as obligation, and with obligation in mind, anything happens, its not their fault, its the cat, its the dog, its that women, its that bird which just flew past, its that bloody red ant fault but never they will say "sorry its my fault"
When you as a leader or boss, you pass down a plan, with points listed and procedure stated clearly and even in Thai..if never follow SOP and the outcome still the same, still nvm, can accept, but when the result are different and they never follow the stated SOP and THEY COME OUT WITH THEIR OWN PLAN...ah..thats the most fun part...Still not their fault..:D

All above listed will be on the majority thai..
but they are also thai who are consider International person..who have a better perspectives and better objectives..who love to save money and invest and plan for future and have better knowledge of everything...
Even if most apples are rotten, there are still some good apples in the rotten baskets..its the same in every country..
as one bro mentioned, if we chose to stay put, we only can learn to adapt..
try to use the disadvantage to make it into our own advantage..

For business, if you have the extra money to afford to lose, then do something you like or expert in, everything has its own demand..if for trial and error, then i suggest you keep the money for bonking or get a part time gf..from personal experience too..till now, i had invested in a decent massage shop and a restaurant..lost in total estimated 1.9 mil THB, 700k for the massage and 1.2mil for the restaurant.
Massage was self take care with wife..and restaurants with another Thai partner..got zero from both... :D consider bad life experience, but still optimistic about it..
When one door is close, there will be another door open...
In Thailand, do biz, you have to prepare yourself to get nothing back in the worst scenerio..just like Bacarrat , 50-50 win or lose.. :D
in life, you have the gain the experience to grow up n learn...

best comment life facts post i read in along time.
If you can only save 5k then you not really business minded, $50 worth 30min my time but there are those think can buy so much effort from a stranger
Talk mouth say business but mind thinking of fucking thai pussy only , so how can be successful

seriously i dont know most of the young generation think now...

Na... there you have it.. point 1 to point 7. If you think so jialat meh? These are the people you have to deal with on a daily basis. Before you can get any real work done, already kill half of your soul liao.


Talk mouth say business but mind thinking of fucking thai pussy only , so how can be successful

Unless you sent by HQ come here as Tua Pek Gong don't need to care about progress lah... If not you can forget about fucking thai pussy for the first few months. Problem after problem will arise... by the time you finally settle liao and think back why it happen and how to avoid, sure 99% is human problem. Most of the problems here are created by human character. Be it is the officer behind the desk, the agent you engage to setup company or worker/anyone you entrust to do something... the problem will not stop.

Yes, do it own self is very important... like our bro in the northern mountain and I believe some might know him. 14 years here liao... speak thai have northern accent somemore... watch TV don't need to read subtitle liao... this kind of standard. He also until today do 95% of his work himself. 1-2 months hired labor for 1-2 days nia. He don't know how to expand his factory meh? He no money meh? No lah... he knows he's better off this way. Highest max profit with least risk and problem.

as i mentioned always to my juniors...
always set your own goals then work towards it, dont and never care what other say...
also this story - when we young, we find ways to make money and work damn hard...and thinking for one day we can retire and do what? retire in a place near beach with a nice hut and go fishing with friends and drink kopi with kakis or buy land and do farming..sound shiok right..but think about it...isnt it the farmers and fishermen are doing now all their life...? :D ironic right?
they dont have to spend too much of their lifetime like how we do to get what we wanted..but we all work like cow and horse to get what we wanted... :D

Ever thought about this before but is diff lah....we retire with passive income knowing nothing much can bring us down if we live on our humble normal life style with fishing or farming as hobby............ but to those farmers or fishermen they have to do it for work and their work depend on weather leh......we do it as hobby to enjoy life but they do it to support their life, same same but different. :D

if doing a self substainable farming, money is not an issue anymore..of cos money will be use for own medical purposes..
But other than that, i dont think have much difference..
In self subtainable farming, you dont need much money to do the farming too..becos all goes by the cycle, ingredients and ferterlizers are from own farm..addition crops or meat from farm, can sell off to neighbours and etc..thats your extra income ...
