Bangkok
Bangkok
I'm going to Bangkok for work next week for three days.
Any good rooftop bars/ Restaurants? regular bars (no girly bars)/ restaurants? Prices don't matter. Company pays for everything.
Anything I should know about Thailand? I've never been so I have absolutely no clue of what to expect.
Would you recommend learning the basics (hello, how are you, thank you, goodbye)? It helped me a lot in Myanmar. Just wondering if Thailand is the same way.
Thanks!

Better make damned sure your company has the right visa and work permit for you. In Thailand, you can't even freely volunteer in a charity endeavour without a work permit.
What part of Bangkok are you staying? I will bet though it's Sukhumvit, where you will find dozens of hotels and hundreds of restaurants, plus the BTS Skytrain runs overhead along Sukhumvit.

I've been going to Thailand for a few days of work over 40 times the last few years, each and every time with nothing more than an exemption stamp in my passport. You can have meetings, sign contracts, etc etc without any question asked.ExPenhMan wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 10:47 am Better make damned sure your company has the right visa and work permit for you.

Re: Bangkok
Wait what? Can't I just go on a tourist visa? It's only for three days. My Cambodian coworkers don't need a visa and assured me that I was gonna be fine with a tourist visa.ExPenhMan wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 10:47 am Better make damned sure your company has the right visa and work permit for you.

Re: Bangkok
I'd guess you are correct about doing a quick and dirty job in Thailand. However, just FYI:

Re: Bangkok
Brewski on rooftop of the Radisson around Sukhumvit 25 or 27 is good.
Char on top of Indigo in Ploenchit also good.

Re: Bangkok
visit the Thermae Bar in sukumvit before soi 15
not roof top but basement LOL
although Legally u need a WP and correct visa to do any kind of work, no one really cares or checks for those flying in for a few days.
also 55 nations get a free 30 days visa exempt entry stamp

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST
