Survey results for Falang men on Thai women
I like to thank the 28 people who took the time to fill out the survey.
As I said at the outset, the survey was a bit of fun but the results from the small set surprised me a little. Basically, it would appear we love Thai women for their natural beauty and not their gymnastic ability. When you consider the respondents are probably here for the girls then I would have thought bedroom Olympics would have scored higher marks.
Not surprisingly, (to me at least), money management and support of family scored poorly in the survey.
The category receiving the most maximum scores, (10's), was "their ability to make the old and ugly feel wanted". Nine in total so I can only assume 9 respondents are either old or ugly or both!!!!!
Mark H. was the most generous scorer awarding nine maximum points for the ten categories. Mark, all I can say is I would like to meet your wife/girlfriend. Even better, her sister!!!!
Maybe next I should do a survey of Thai Girls On Falang Men but I'll definitely give more thought to the questions on that one.
Again thanks for playing.
Ed.

· Letter from owner of the house stating you live there

· A copy of the house book of your Thai relative living with you. The house, condo, shop house or townhouse can be owned by someone else or a Thai company. The only requirement is the name of your Thai wife; husband or dependent child is in the book.
· Any bill or bank statement that shows you receive mail at the address. Examples are electric bill, cable TV bill, telephone bill, internet service provider bill, or receipt from landlord.
· Also, savings account or investment account statements can also be used to verify address.

Salman in a tuk-tuk
Salman Khan will be seen in the distinctive Thai rickshaws performing action scenes for upcoming film, Ready
Salman Khan recently shot some high-voltage action sequences while driving a tuk-tuk (see box) in the narrow streets of Pattaya, Thailand last week.
Perhaps inspired by Hollywood actor Pierce Brosnan's fast-paced ad in the ubiquitous Thai rickshaw, Khan suggested to the director Anees Bazmee that they shoot some action scenes in one, as it hasn't been done in a Hindi film as yet.

Holidays with the Devil at Full Moon Party
. Source: The Sunday Telegraph
YOUNG Australians are flocking to Thailand to dance with death and drink huge brews of alcohol and drugs. It's schoolies on steroids. A teenager's paradise. No parents, no rules, no authorities, no police. No limits.
Welcome to Thailand's infamous Full Moon parties, where the signature drink is a bucket of hard alcohol with red bull -- drugs of all kinds are bought over the counter at bars.Every month, thousands of backpackers descend on the island of Koh Phangan where the event has been for each full moon since 1985.
It's a cash-cow for the Thai government, drawing about 30,000 revellers during peak seasons and around 10,000 to 20,000 others on any given month. And now more than ever, Australians are joining the party.
Lured by the guarantee of low-cost flights, a wild time and cheap alcohol, they cram themselves onto the island's exotic Haad Rin beach to dance the night away.
Now an investigation by The Sunday Telegraph has uncovered a high-risk, unregulated and dangerous culture of drinking and drug taking -- among revellers and "officials" -- which any parent would shudder to think their child is walking into.
