A Singaporean's guide to living in Thailand

[chonburifc]

so far i neverf heard sg ppl refer to it as a motorsai.

Don't listen to him. He is drunk. I, too, have never come across any Sinkie referring to it as motorsai.

only sinkie cantonese might refer to motorcycle as motorsai, not sure if this term is in Hongkies vocab though.

ummm. Bo Mao. me recall ever use 'Motorsai' or the even shorter 'Motor' in Sinkeeland.

Tempting me, you old devil:o Sinful as it is already. Got my sights on north run CNX 1st week Mar. Bro Keizumi asked me "when arh" when he landed station earth. Low season late 2Q may skive:p

MC also got benefits 1, shake legs and sympathetic attention from your better half ...plus that sweet staff. But pls don't say "fetch"!

Yes, CNX good choice. the weather in the south or sin city is getting warmer.
Have MC also no use here. :(
Thinking of visiting a Sinseh in SG. Anyone know if there are any reason for avoiding cold drinks/beers if there are bone related injury?

There is a 北京同仁堂 in Bangkok Yaowarat. I'm not sure if they have a branch in Pattaya. But it's still cheaper and more convenient for you to come to Bangkok there is none in Pattaya.

Anything cold will slow down the healing process because stifles the flow of the Qi.

Here's some pics of last evening dinner at Pan Pan Italian restaurant (my only favorite Italian restaurant). They are using the traditional stove for the pizzas. Did not go for wine but 2 pints of Heineken to go with the food.

I don't know any sinseh in Pattaya but I 'tui' myself last night before going to bed and seems to be better today. Yes, same with cough, if cannot abstain from cold drinks, will take a long time to recover. Not as bad as I expected. Still can walk around but cannot stand too long.

Yaowarat is the most authentic Chinatown in the world. It has everything from Chinese food, Chinese medicine to Chinese coffin. Its area is probably as big as, if not bigger than, San Francisco Chinatown. It's Chinese atmosphere is more authentic than SF or Vancouver Chinatowns since Thai culture and influence merge more seamlessly into Chinese than western. Driving there is not advisable. It's usually too crowded and parking would be a problem. If from outside Bangkok, you can take a train to Hualamphong station. If from within Bangkok, you can take the MRT to the same station. Enjoy the stroll, food and traditional Chinese shopping.

All of you don't worry about what Ramseth say about the traffic/carparking in Yaowarat I can advise you carpark for sure you can get parking lots no worries. But worse come to worse my maid can drive you there and back.

That's kind of obvious since thai culture is originally from china. You can also say the same for say how greeks or german ppl seem to fit better into western countries.

Btw i hear that the chinese over there actually speak more thai and have thai names rather than chinese ones like that pornsak.

If your injured spot is swollen, you're not supposed to 'tui'. You have got to take Chinese medicine. Otherwise, there will be "hidden injury" and it will surface every now and then. I don't think the Bejing Tong Ren Tang has a branch in Pattaya. You may have to come to Bangkok, and the sinsehs are from Chinese Mainland.

Yes, believe chinese have integrated in thai mainstream -with their long history and ancestry. Populace extended if you include mixed marriages and ancestry.

joetys, think this one must 'tui' instead of massage. Have did it myself in the past with some 'tui' oil. If massage wrongly, can worsen the condition. One bad thing is I still continue to drink 'cold stuff' just like beer.

Guess what? Wine for me is quite wasteful. I cannot really tell the difference between a good wine and bad wine.
Normally, I just ask the waiter or captain to introduce something reasonable. Last night, only have Heineken draft.

Alamak, think if I come to BKK, the Beijing Tong Ren Tang will be the last destination in the itinerary. :p
