Welcome from Chairman of Tourism and Culture of Pattaya City Council Khun Rattanachai Suttidechanai On behalf of Pattaya City Hall I would like to welcome you to Pattaya and to Buzzin Lifestyle. I am very proud of our wonderful city and all it has to offer. It doesn’t matter if you are just visiting with your family or live here, there is so much to see and do.

Over the years Pattaya has grown from its origin of a small fishing village back in 1960, to now one of the most popular destinations in the world.

I am sure you will enjoy your stay here and I urge you to explore our city and see everything we have here for you. Blessed with a wonderful climate and some of the most beautiful temples, attractions, beaches and islands nearby, there is no reason to stay inside.

What does the next ten years ahead have in store, who knows, there certainly seem to be a lot of plans in City Hall for further improvements which will only increase Pattaya’s popularity.

Pattaya’s Tourism Journey Pattaya started life as a quiet and sleepy town, a far cry from the busy and hectic image it now portrays.

The town started developing after the completion of the Pattaya – Naklua road. News reporters from the Ploenjit Newspaper visited Pattaya along with other dignitaries who all stayed at a stretch of beach which is now known as the Dusit Resort Hotel. Following their visits and much publicised findings, Pattaya started to be known on the map as a place of beauty.

By 1955 Pattaya had a fast growing reputation amongst Thailand as a place to visit, in fact tours started operating where 30-40 tourists would travel down for the day. In 1972 construction had started to improve access for buses and travelling time and as a result of the improvements Pattaya found itself published in the Authority Of Thailand magazine in January 1972 (TOT Magazine number 6)

to South as much as at its Central Pattaya. The Pattaya Town had grown during this time to cover as far as the Jomtien Beach at the South part of Pattaya. Its growing and glowing of all fames through the town at that time led Pattaya to its peak of tourism fame; and had been titled as “Asian Riviera” (to be compromised to the beauty of the famous tourism Italy beach known as “Italy Riviera”).

Pattaya is an incredible resilient city and has transformed itself many times over the years regardless of global economic conditions. Pattaya now boasts a large number of very high quality hotels, only rivalled by Bangkok, there are also literally thousands of new condominium apartments currently under construction all over the city and whilst it maybe

I guess the real starting point of Pattaya’s claim to fame most likely started in 1959 when US Troops agreed to use U-Tapao Airport as their base during the Vietnam War. This base was used not only for the American to supply their troop to Vietnam, but also being the recreational places for the soldiers (so-called G.I.) on their short leaves during the war. Pattaya had become the well-known place to all G.I. It’s peaceful and beauty had been verbally from the Americans to other westerners. Sooner, by the year 1977 tourist Westerners – most were Europeans, started coming to visit Pattaya. New hotels were booming from North 5

Buzzin Lifestyle Are you thinking about investing in Pattaya City? If so, you’re not alone. Many foreigners over the last several years have started investing in Real Estate properties in Pattaya, thanks to the option of purchasing a condominium in a foreigner name. Foreigners can own a property 100% in their own name, plus Thailand can provide you with a long term visa.

The affordable investment prices makes Pattaya a very nice place to buy a condominium or house, which can become a second home or to create extra income. Besides that, for property investors the return can be quiet beneficial if you choose the right deal and make a smart choice.

One of the keys to success when investing in Pattaya real estate is purchasing a condo or rental property that’s in a walkable location like Beach Road, Second Road or Central Pattaya. It should be close to shops, and restaurants, because this will ultimately make it easier for any renter to have plenty of things to do or buy the things that they need without having to travel too far away from the property.

It is recommended to buy a new condo; because new rental units will be located in buildings with modern facilities and great amenities, offer more space, and have bigger kitchens which will make renters, especially ex-pats, really feel like they are home. A long term rental contract is then more feasible and creates a stable income over a long period.

In 2016 and coming years there

www.buzzinmediagroup.com

will be many new properties available across Pattaya and Jomtien Beach that will be completed and ready to move in. That means the market will have a lot of re-sales and rental condos available, all the reason to use our services and get the best deal in town, with our large property database of over 1600 properties we can assure you we will find the right property.

Did you know that it’s another great year to buy real estate in Pattaya? 2016 will bring more investments in motorways, railways, infrastructure and the government is also planning up to 10 brand new routes for mass transit which will help to further increase Thailand’s appeal and make it the hub of transportation for the ASEAN Economic Community. All the more reason not to delay and make a smart investment at the right moment; for the coming years land values will increase and now is the right time to buy or invest.

List your property for sale or rent You can list your house, condo or commercial property with ATS, we are happy to assist you with a buyer or long term rental customer. Feel free to contact us and see what we can offer!

For more information about buying a successful ROI property in Pattaya, or to view sales and rental condos or homes, then contact Jules, Realtor® and MD of ATS Real Estate. +66 (0)94-913-6855 or email asiatradingservice@gmail.com or visit the office Thepprasit soi 10.

There’s Only 3 Things You Can Do At The Gym.

would take place to due to it’s lower intensity nature.

By Fitness Pro Ror Alexander

Now, this might sound a bit misleading, after all there are hundreds of things you can do at the gym, but at the end of the day, we can actually break it down into 3 categories: 1.Stimulating Skeletal Muscles to build or maintain strength and muscle fibers. i.e. Strength Training 2.Develop or maintain the cardiovascular respiratory systems, i.e.

Cardio Training 3.Develop, or maintain flexibility and Range of Motion, i.e. Stretching

Understanding the energy systems, how they interact, and which one is needed for the results you are looking for should be a priority for you. So next time you go to the gym, don’t ask yourself “what exercise am I

Now within these 3 categories comes a wide variety of personal goals; building bigger arms, losing tummy fat, increasing punching power, touching my toes, increasing speed or agility, etc. But the basic fact is, no matter what you are doing, it’s one of the 3 categories above. This is why most better trainers, and coaches don’t really talk about which “muscles this hits”, or “this exercise does this outcome”, but they speak in terms of energy systems, which again, are pretty much 3 categories.

ATP-CP, Anaerobic, or Aerobic, and it’s important to learn which system does what.

•ATP-CP will help you develop maximal strength, or explosive power.

•Anaerobic will help develop muscle gains, or VO2 max (if done in a cardio based regimen).

•Aerobic which focuses on the heart, lungs, or cardiovascular respiratory systems. *This is also the place where flexibility training

KEY VISA – Getting Married in Thailand When you legally marry in Thailand it is recognized all over the world. Some foreigners mistakenly believe that a Thai marriage is only legal in Thailand – that is just not the case. The law of Thailand permits the natives of other nations to perform the marriage with the citizens of Thailand. The process can quite complicated and all the legal documents are to be translated into Thai and legalized as per the requirements of the law of Thailand.

It is important to get the permission of the embassy if you are a foreigner and want to marry in Thailand. In Thailand, marriages are conducted in the district offices where your details will be clarified. Obtaining a marriage certificate in Thailand is hard work. Let Key Visa do it for you, they will make the trip up to Bangkok and have documents certified by the Thai Government on your behalf.

After the marriage is completed, Key Visa will also translate and certify all the documents into English, so there is no confusion and you have copies to take home.
