I did few times just for fun. Original idea actually came from two Tawan boys who upon learning today is my birthday whispered something and suggested special show. Yes , you will pay two sets of off fees and two sets of tips but no any other extra charges other than condom and lube unless you want to dine them before or after or both which I would do , specially if boys are not familiar with each other . Before you go ahead be aware about possible pitfalls and avoid them. 1/ do not force one boy on another. Fact that you like Boy A and boy B doesn't mean they will like or be comfortable with each other. Learned my lesson once and never again. 2/ way to do it is to pick up one boy and tell him what you want. If he agrees let him to chose another boy , subject to your approval. He may suggest going to another bar as he may not be comfortable with his bar friends or co-workers 3/ try not to get mamasan involved as she may try to force boy with whom not necessarily you or your first boy will be comfortable. Remember , she is boy's boss. If you need her for translation , I would definitely go hunting for 2nd boy somewhere else after whole plot is explained to the boy unless you sense boy is comfortable with somebody in his bar - see my original occurrence cited above. 4/ make sure you will be able to take two boys to your room. Some hotels may not have any problem with one guest but may resist idea of two at once. It happened to me in hotel I stay many times and crew was familiar with me and my despicable behavior day after day , night after night. In such a case boys may know short time room to utilize. 5/ be prepared for surprise, in the room they may decide to change the roles and top will bottom but you don't care because show is show. 6/ for better performance I would chose first boy from those you already offed before. as for place, any would do , it's willing boys you need to find , not a place7 points

Retirement Visa in Thailand
Mavica and 3 others reacted to kokopelli3 for a topic
Many of your questions can be answered on aseannow.com forum if you want to try it. Yes, true you don't need health insurance if you apply for a Non O visa when in Thailand. In Pattaya a reputable agent is Maneerat Visa, Pattaya 13/2, Pattaya City, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri 20150. This location is commonly referred to as Soi Post Office located near Royal Garden.4 points -
From Pattaya Mail By Barry Kenyon What to expect in 2024 The Thai government is committed to tourist expansion and more visa hurdles are likely to fall in the next few months. Already, only in Bangkok and potentially in Phuket, some visa extensions can be applied for online and there are likely to be more similar projects in provincial immigration. The bothersome 90 days reporting and the notification of address after arrival in the country are likely to remain with us, partly as a consequence of visa retraction. Rumors in 2023 that all expats will soon be required to have their own medical insurance appear to have retreated. Fears that your immigration record will be dragged into the still-confusing Thai Revenue taxation of foreign assessable income also appear false. Some countries are already experimenting with replacing visas and even passports by biometric data for use at airports and immigration bureaux and there will be the start of a long debate in Thailand too about the pros and cons. Visas in retreat Tourists from several countries, notably China, Russia and India, no longer require a prior visa to visit Thailand. This is an attempt by the Thai government to boost arrivals from countries believed to have huge expansion potential. Although there have been rumors that citizens of UK, US, EU and Australia will have their visa-exempt status improved from 30 days to 90 days without visiting local immigration, there has not been any announcement. Extending a visa Visa-exempt arrivals with a 30 days stamp can obtain a further 30 days on application at immigration with a fee of 1,900 baht. They must fill in an extension form, provide a passport photo and – crucially – provide evidence of their local address on a separate form known as TM30. Evidence would normally be a receipt from the hotel or a property lease, or proof of ownership of a condominium or residence. This proof of address is required as soon as possible after arrival and must be renewed every time the tourist re-enters Thailand. Many hotels and condominiums automatically register their guests online with immigration. If so, they will have an official confirmation from immigration which the tourist will need if requiring a service from immigration such as extending their stay, or as part of the bureaucracy to open a bank account. Border runs Visa-exempt nationals can obtain a further 30 days by visiting the border, usually with Cambodia, on a border run. This basically involves a minibus day trip by a tour organizer and the cost is typically 4,000-5,000 baht. Thai immigration has a limit of two entries by land in a calendar year. There is no formal limit on the number of entries by air from any country, although there will be problems if an individual tries to “live” in Thailand by too-frequent arrivals at the Thai airport without an authorized, pre-arranged visa. Visas from embassies Increasingly visa applications are online at Thai embassies which offer longer-stay visas including 60 days tourist visas, which can be extended for 30 days at local Thai immigration, together with various three months’ and annual visas for Thai family, marriage or retirement purposes. They can also arrange 10 year retirement visas, 5-20 year Elite visas and the 10 year Long Term Residence visas. Most of these can also be obtained whilst in Thailand at immigration or via the Thai tourist authority for Elite. These visas are expensive, may involve heavy financial investment in Thailand and some require comprehensive medical insurance. The detail is too complex to cover here but embassies, immigration and competent agencies can assist. There is comprehensive discussion on the internet, although not always truthful. Medical insurance Mostly visitors to Thailand do not need medical insurance. A few visas do require it, namely O/A retirement visas initially awarded by embassies, 0/X 10 year retirement visas and Long Term Residence visas. The hospital cover now required is US$100,000 or just over three million baht. It’s worth noting that the O retirement visa issued by immigration does not require medical cover although changing from O/A to 0 cannot be done without leaving Thailand. Foreigners with work or labor permits are covered by the Thai national insurance scheme. Currently, the Thai government has a fund to offer compensation where “tourists” (not defined) are injured or killed through no fault of their own. But the fund is discretionary and is used mostly to pay funeral costs and compensation to relatives in sensational cases such as major traffic accidents. Student visas The former practice of enrolling as a student of Thai and then attending classes rarely or never is now frowned on. There have been a number of scandals reported involving heads of language schools and deviant immigration officers. It is unwise to seek student status on a non-sincere basis. Those interested in becoming a serious student should contact a language school of their choice to ascertain costs and requirements. Many student and volunteer visas issued during the covid pandemic were shown to be fraudulent. Working in Thailand If a foreigner is offered a job, the host company will be responsible for organizing the required visa (non-immigrant B) and Labor office permit. Alternatively, a foreigner can set up his or her own company with capital, acquire Thai partners, register with the Thai tax and health authorities and deal with Thai immigration and the Department of Employment. An informed lawyer is the key to this bureaucracy. For example, many foreign-run restaurants are established through a company set up correctly. When things go wrong Working without a permit can lead to deportation and blacklisting. Overstaying a visa for a limited period can be cancelled by fines – 500 baht a day to a maximum of 20,000 baht – but overstays for more than three months will likely lead to deportation and blacklisting. Thailand in recent years has become more strict about drunk driving (especially with accidents) and possession or trafficking of illegal substances. Whilst bail is usually offered by the court, the time scales involved in trying criminal cases can be months or even years if an appeal is involved.4 points

Sincere question Dominican Republic or Colombia?
eurasian and 3 others reacted to BrazilianBoiChaser for a topic
I have not been to the Dominican Republic but I have been twice to Colombia and Brazil at least 5 times. So all I can compare is Colombia versus Brazil. Colombia: People are less warm and inviting and that makes it harder to find guys randomly like you do in Brazil. When you do find guys or go to the sex spots you will realize that the guys on average are shorter, less buff, and less endowed(gifted) than the guys in Brazil. The best gay city in Colombia is Bogota due to Theatron and Gigolo Erotic House and other venues. Plus Bogota has a whole gay area similar to Republica in Sao Paulo.4 points -

Aviation regulators have a very good policy of avoiding placing blame on people. They will investigate the incident, they will determine what went wrong, and crucially, what needs to be changed so that this does not happen again. That might be changes to aircraft design, changes to airports, changes to the words used to give clearances, or additional training requirements for pilots or ATCs. Unfortunately our media and our politicans have trained us to have a psychological need for someone to take the blame, even if it is not the right person. It makes people feel better just"knowing" the answer. Even if it is not the right one. In this case, alot of people are jumping to conclusions already, and laying blame with the pilot of of the Dash-8 plane based on what little information the media has been given. For example, I've seen a report that the stop lights at the junction where the Dash-8 was supposed to stop were not working. I don't know how accurate that is, but the Air Accident report will detail everything.3 points

Since last year (2023) I happened to be in Thailand during two of those NO ALCOHOL days I observed that few bars were still opened but definitely no alcohol was sold and traffic was almost non-existing. That the best time to utilize apps or secure presence bar boys few days in advance. One saves on off fee and boy will be double grateful for income on otherwise monetary dry day. If you happen to stock up on beer , he may even be triple grateful. In short , plan accordingly3 points -

This should have been a memorable meal but was about the only somewhat of a letdown over a month. Yet among the most challenging to snag a table. Mind you it was early days, jet-lagged, and my body’s regular breakfast hour. Some of the textures and notes were off for me. Bland, and the beef seemed dry and flavourless. The dessert had a fermented component that I just did not take to, tasted borderline rancid. The renovation is very attractive. I emphasize that others should not go by my impression but might want to peruse food review sites prior to committal. I averaged about one “higher end” tasting-menu per week. It’s not my usual dining format and somewhat volume overload for one sitting given my usual nutrition consumption. However, no regrets about the other choices. I usually take a glass of champagne but no wine accompaniment.3 points -

Thailand Cuts Tax on Alcohol
Phoenixblue and one other reacted to reader for a topic
Excerpted from MSN Much like the old saying “row when the tide comes in,” the Thai government is gearing up to boost tourism in the New Year. To achieve this goal, they have lowered taxes for alcohol and entertainment establishments. The Economic Times reported that Thailand officially approved tax reductions for alcohol and entertainment businesses on the 2nd. Chai Wacharonke, a spokesperson for the Thai government, stated, “This decision aims to breathe new life into the tourism industry,” and added, “The tax cuts for alcohol and entertainment businesses will remain in effect until the end of the current year.” Thailand has implemented several tax adjustments to attract more tourists, including reducing wine taxes from 10% to 5% and completely eliminating the 10% tax on spirits. Additionally, the country intends to reduce the consumption tax applied to entertainment businesses by half compared to previous rates.2 points -

AOT targets speedier immigration
Phoenixblue and one other reacted to reader for a topic
From The Nation A tourism promotion campaign is one of a series of approaches that the Airports Authority of Thailand Plc (AOT) will roll out to attract tourists, and especially tourists from China, according to the authority’s president, Kerati Kijmanawat. The tourism promotion campaign will be in collaboration with the Tourism Authority of Thailand. AOT anticipates an increase in Chinese tourist arrivals to Thailand by over 8 million in 2024, a recovery of 75% compared to 2020 when there were 11.1 million Chinese tourists. AOT, as the operator of Thailand’s six major airports (Suvarnabhumi, Don Mueang, Chiang Mai, Mae Fah Luang-Chiang Rai International, Phuket International, and Hat Yai International), is preparing to facilitate travel for Chinese and Thai travellers between the two countries, ensuring convenience and preparedness. They will coordinate with relevant agencies to efficiently manage passenger services throughout arrival and departure processes, ensuring flexibility and avoiding congestion, especially during immigration checks and in baggage claim areas. The AOT is also aligning with the “Smiling Visit” policy initiated by Transport Minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit, which aims to create a positive impression for service users. This includes efficient airport service management to provide travellers with convenient, safe, and prompt services that create a positive image for the country. This policy is seen as elevating international relations and the importance of Thai passports, particularly since China had implemented a visa-free policy for only five countries previously.2 points -

Alas! the lift-guy at Tarntawan, for whom I'd long had the hots, departed a few years ago when there were many staff-changes following the change of ownership. He'd been there for years and, like others, was very upset to leave. The lift is unmanned nowadays. However, returning to the theme of the thread, I concur with the advice of others. The key is finding guys who fancy each other but are not close friends. Guys from two different bars may be a better bet. My experience was pre-dating app; I summoned-up the courage to achieve a long-held desire, taking a couple from Sunee who were friends at a host bar.

So please do tell us the answer: Exactly WHY do you waste your time here?1 point -
It's becoming increasing clear that communication in general, and phraseology in particular, may turn out to be the keys to understanding the cause of the accident at Heneda. The release of the transcript has established that the Coast Guard aircraft had not been given permission to either be on the runway or to take off while the JAL flight had been cleared to land. The bedrock of preventing runway incursions has been the use of standardize phrases aimed at ensuring both pilots and controllers share the same understanding of instructions. Pilots are required to repeat (say back) the instruction received by the controller. This is intended as a fail safe procedure. However, no communications system is perfect and that appears to be the case here. Another problem that occurs when one party inadvertently speaks simultaneously on the same frequency (known as being "stepped on") results in one or more parties not hearing their transmission. Incursions typically occur when a taxiing aircraft is crossing an active runway or when a aircraft enters an active runway to take off. Any misunderstanding by ether party--pilot or controller--can result in an incursion. For example, in 2010, the US Federal Aviation Administration adopted new language to help reduce the possibility of miscommunications. Line Up and Wait Phraseology Change Beginning on September 30, 2010, the words "Position and Hold" will no longer be used to instruct a pilot to enter the runway and await takeoff clearance. Under the new "Line Up and Wait" phraseology, the controller will: State the call-sign. State the departure runway. State "Line Up and Wait". Differences in phraseology contribute to runway incursions. Analysis by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) revealed that differences between FAA and International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) air traffic control phraseology contribute to runway incursion risks. NTSB recommended that the FAA adopt the international standard terminology: "Line Up and Wait" to replace "Position and Hold". FAA Safety Analysis. In accordance with its Safety Management System procedures, the FAA Air Traffic Organization conducted a safety analysis of this recommendation. FAA implemented mitigations to ensure a safe transition from the old phraseology to the new. Exercise caution. Be aware the phrase "Traffic Holding in Position" will continue to be used to advise other aircraft that traffic has been authorized to "Line Up and Wait" on an active runway. REMEMBER: Never cross a hold line without explicit ATC instructions. You may not enter a runway unless you have been: Instructed to cross or taxi onto that specific runway Cleared to take off from that runway, or Instructed to "Line Up and Wait" on that specific runway If in doubt ASK! ============== From ABC News Australia A transcript of communication between air traffic control and two aircraft that collided and burst into flames at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport appears to show that only the larger Japan Airlines (JAL) flight was given permission to use the runway. But while the transcript appears to show the Coast Guard plane was only given permission to taxi, Japan's NHK television reported that the smaller plane's captain, the only member of the Coast Guard crew to survive, maintained he was given permission to take off. An official from Japan's civil aviation bureau told reporters there was no indication in the transcripts that the Coast Guard aircraft had been granted permission to take off, according to Reuters. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-01-04/japan-airlines-crash-permission-to-land-coast-guard-not-cleared/1032837041 point

From NHK Newsline Passengers of burning plane detail horrific ordeal Passengers of a Japan Airlines plane that collided with a Japan Coast Guard aircraft at Tokyo's Haneda Airport on Tuesday have been describing their dramatic escape. Many instantly knew something had gone horribly wrong when the plane met the runway at 5:47 P.M. One passenger says she heard a bang, and noticed a fire. She says she initially thought there had been a bird strike or other incident. But as the flames spread, she knew it was a bigger accident. She said, "The crew urged travelers to stay calm and kept asking them to sit down and not to take their luggage. But people kept coming forward." She continued, "The inside of the plane became pitch dark, and the fire kept getting bigger," adding that she thought her life was about to end. Another passenger says the plane filled with smoke. He says the cabin crew announced that the doors at the center and back could not be opened, so everyone evacuated from the front. All 379 passengers and crew used three emergency exits. The last person got out at 6:05 P.M. Continues with video https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/news/20240103_31/1 point

If you are in Fortaleza it's worth to visit Pirata Bar. It is amazing to see all local people dancing and having fun. Also an amazing scenery. The New York Times may have given rave reviews to its Monday night party with a tremendous live show of traditional music and dancing. It’s not a gay bar or even a gay theme night, but it’s something you should definitely do while you’re in Fortaleza. There are plenty of gay boys in Fortaleza that will want to go with you and have a good time. https://www.gayguides.com/listing/pirata/1 point
