Of course the things he didnt mention were cash bribes. Obviously they are not going to ask their girlfriends to sleep with the police to get them off the line.

"Resources" = Cash under the table

Not moving to Thailand anymore. [censored] that.

very scary stuff. Good to hear everything was settled without harsh penalties. Reminder to myself, no poker in Thailand....

Haha, the police in Laos are way too corrupt and incompetent for this to ever happen.

fully concur with Degen's appraisal of selflessness being Thai girls' nature. My gf and I have plenty of arguments indoors, but when we go outside she is fiercely supportive and defensive of me.

Face.
Could be considered as total selfishness, it's more complicated than that i know, but it's not selflessness.

How much face would she lose if some people saw her having arguments with her bf? And how much would she lose if those people saw her not being supportive of her man?

This is also an element of it I'm sure. But, it's not a bad part either. Too many western girls wouldn't think twice about [censored] on their man in public just to prove how imortant they are to their gfs or whoever.

If it's partially for face reasons I can live with it since I don't have to deal with women trying to prove they have a bigger dick than every man they meet. (Neglecting the katoey factor of course [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img])

Well said. I guess the face thing can be positive too just have to know how to deal with it.
