A Singaporean's guide to living in Thailand

Agree just like you and me.

You know, something funny happened after his success. A few weeks ago the official Xinhua News Agency asked Jeremy Lin to 回祖国 to play in the China version of NBA to make the Chinese people proud. I mean think about it its pretty shameless to say such a thing because Jeremy's 祖国 is USA for goodness sake. I mean I cannot imagine my 祖国 is 中国 because I am a sinkie mah.

to china ppl an ethnic chinese is a zhong guo ren. It's actually the same for ppl from an ethnic group that have their own country with the exception of the anglo whites and maybe spanish ppl to some extent.

Let's take a japanese person for eg. There are japanese ppl that are brazilians but when you say japanese person do you think of a person from brazil? Same thing with a thai person too. You get my pt. That's why i asked around is there a diff in the japanese language to differentiate between an ethnic japanese person and a japanese person by nationality. Ramseth mentioned no. He also mentioned if you plan to migrate to japan you have to even change your surname to a jap one. To china ppl if you're ethnically chinese you're a zhong guo ren. Of course technically zhong guo ren denotes the nationality but i don't blame them for thinking that way i'm sure in the thai language they don't have a diff between a thai that isn't a thai national but an ethnic thai and a thai national correct?

The final product
 
My verdict of the Gaggia Baby Twin - good enough for home consumption, but struggles with temperature.

Will seek out the Rancilio Silvia in my next run.
 
Bro, this is the "no bend" version:

This looks the most appetizing dish. For snacking even up to full meal, I love the Thai sotong satay grilled yellow with namchin dip. This big dish could make a full meal for me, without rice or noodle. But beer or whisky is a must. ;) :D

You can wait for my review of a Rancilio Silvia before deciding. But if you're in a rush, the Baby Twin Gaggia is okay. And in Thailand, the price is cheap - B21,000 plus/minus, with your Central Card discount. In Taiwan, it's NT26,000.

I must also remind you that the Gaggia Baby Twin uses an aluminum boiler, whilst Rancilio Silvia, brass. The difference is, after a while, rust will accumulate in a aluminum boiler.

I'd like to ask you an honest question if at home I am the only drinker of coffee and I can drink 2-3 cups of coffee is it ok to have a machine like this? I am worried if not use more often it will breakdown. Will it?

It's for home use, so it's definitely okay.

But wait for a Rancilio Silvia. Jai yen yen. The agent is @ Rangsit.
