Nee Meneer, plain and simple

Thailand, Bangkok,

Yeah, falling in love with a Thai lady of the night really does turn out to be lonely affair in the end. I walk the buzy streets of Bangkok's Chinatown - aka Yaowarat - where the shops wares spiil out in the streets, hawkers and food vendors adding to the chaotic ambience, camaras snapping away belonging to overweight Germans astounded at the disorder that rules this buzy but highly colorfull neighborhood - Ordnung ist Ordnung in Germany but here it is disorder that rules surpreme!!!

Huge white colored bags of ice cubes unloaded from a truck by small framed Thai males with sweaty naked upper bodies where the drops of perperation rolling down their chests resemble silver pearls glistening in the hot Asian sun.

A group of school children waiting for their bus dressed in blue local school uniforms...another perfect photo shoot for my rowdy Deutsche Freunde.

Stray dogs aplenty searching the rubbish that litters the steets for anything edible - can't be all that difficult considering the sheer amount of food and drink intake of the avarage Thai, the Thais have the highest food/drink consumption I know of in this world - plastic cups and foam Pathai plates with enough leftover to get the attention of any passing canine city mongrel, littering the streets of any given Bangkok street, no doubt forcing the city's cleaning services on constant overtime...

Not that my mental attention is on whatever is happening around me - instaed my mind is still concentrated on Nong and Joy, our little family outing yesterday afternoon, reminding me as always that there is no future having a Thai wife when your finances are shit - she will eventually wander over to the next Farang, a constant search for a well-pensioned sugar daddy who will have more dough in the pocket that poor me, a drug crazed Farang male from Amsterdam living on disability dough that will help me to get by but will in no way be acceptable for the immigartion department to decide possitively for a visa request, another green card for a lady of the night from Thailand...forget about it mate, keep dreaming because that is all you will get.

I could line up with Nong outside the Dutch embassy on Wireless Road for hours, interview after interview and the answer will still be NEE MENEER, PLAIN AND SIMPLE no is no!!!

Have done that, been there!!!
