Bangsaphan Guide

I have heard about bad floodings in the past but this bad...I could not have imagined. Looks like a tsunami hit town! Hope everyone is ok under the circumstances. Looks like much property damage unfortunately?

Or - Futsal or regular football would also be of interest...

Do you know if Sepak Takraw is played much in Bang Saphan? Would be interested in watching a game or just kids playing. Also, I have a 7-year old son who enjoys football. Would be nice to let him try the game while in Bang Saphan next time (hopefully next year). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepak_t...

I know of a fellow named Mike (lives near Suan Luang) who I believe was teaching at the Thai school with English program in town last November when I was visiting BS. Don't know is he is online at this site however. Someone who lives in BS might be able to help?

Well done!

I don't get it. Why did the landoffice chief take offense at your land lease? I know they don't like foreigners but is there some particular issue here?

Yeah I an curious also. Ther are signs all over the Suan Luang area promiting fiber connections for 590 bath, varying a little depending on connection speed.

Looks to me that the real estate market in BS has take a turn south. Now Dec 1st and occupancy is low at the resorts, plenty of bungalows to rent. Heard an anecdotal about a price cut for an attractive plot of land. More land-to-sell signs than tourists on the streets. I guess the coup is one factor...

I think rental prices are increasing in BS? Was just offered to rent a two-bedroom house near the beach for 3000 baht per day , for a two-week period in November-December. That would correspond to 42000 baht for the two weeks, or 84000 per month... Have not been around for three years, is there some...

Felix Qui has one, in my view, excellent response to that article:

Good job! Wish I could be there to lend a hand as well.

Bitte,

Ich habe Sauerkraut in meine Lederhosen!

Wow...where is that half-submerged house located?

So what point are those rubber farmers trying to make? Rubber price too low?

Could be a nice way to get to BS
