Russell Brand criminally charged with rape...
cdemundo replied to FriscoKid's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
He was funny comedian, he was very quick witted and reminded me of Robin Williams in the way he could take off on a verbal riff at any time. Of course his flamboyant clothes and hair style are off-putting to a lot of the elderly fuddy-duddies (gosh, can I say fuddy-duddy on AN?, can I say gosh?, oh my) who have taken a dislike to him. Sounds like the CPS doesn't charge unless they are very confident of conviction so he will no doubt have a tough time at trial. Sounds like he behaved criminally and hate to see famous and prominent people get away with that. -

My 8 year old TCL TV has a horizontal line across the top of the screen and none of the online suggested fixes has helped it. Unfortunately, the TCL service center is extremely low rated on Google and I think I may be better off using an independent service center. I will try calling TCL again though next week. I was stuck on hold yesterday until I gave up. Any recommendations for a good company in Bangkok. Thanks.

Tourist Sparks Outrage in Phuket Over Throwing Fake Dollar Bills - video
2long replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Sadly, the world has become what it is. People only really 'enjoying themselves' if they can post it online. Or people's behaviour too focussed on entertaining others, often for financial gain via likes, followers etc. Back in my day we did lots of crazy sh*t that just became stories to laugh about later. I hate it when these reports have to have a dig about 'Thailand's current visa rules' because in my humble opinion, an idiot who will misbehave abroad is more likely one who is only in the country for a short time, not more than a month. You only have to look at members' posts here to see the general attitudes and opinions of long timers. Therefore, I feel that the longer you stay in a country the less likely you are to flout its laws and customs like a fool. Just my opinion, though. -

British Man's Urgent Plea to Save Dying Father in Thailand
Wuvu2 replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
"Old age" is no longer recognized as a natural cause of death by the medical community on a death certificate in the West. We have some ridiculous expectation that with the best medical treatments, we'll live forever. I plan to be stoic and accept the aging process with grace. If I chicken out I'll be posting my go-fund-me page right here 😂 -
Absolute garbage. The stock market hasn't crashed, as you put it, like a 20% drop in a single day, or week! Certainly the market has taken a beating, but this was to be expected! Countries are already starting to negotiate. Canada, after hitting back with 25% tariffs on $107 billion in U.S. goods, is now at the table, per its industry ministry on April 4. Mexico, despite initial outrage, signaled talks after a 30-day tariff pause in March. India’s been negotiating since February—offering to cut tariffs on $23 billion in U.S. imports—aiming for a $500 billion trade deal by 2030. The EU’s trade chief is meeting U.S. officials today, April 5, balancing talks with $23 billion in planned countermeasures. Italy’s opting for no retaliation, Israel’s dropped all tariffs, and Argentina’s pushing to go zero-tariff, per posts on X and Reuters reports. Even China, after its 34% counter-tariff on U.S. goods (effective April 10), is reportedly engaging, though it’s also tightening rare earth exports. Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Australia, and Ireland have voiced readiness to negotiate too, per statements from their leaders and ministries since April 3. The U.S. stock drop—S&P 500 down 12% from February—shows the pressure’s real, and countries are moving fast to cut deals or offset losses.

And in my view, he could have had his father removed years ago if things were looking bad, but instead they wait until 2025? How has Jonathan Leo been supporting himself all these years? Couldn't that money have been used to repatriate his father? -

Will the Trump Tarriff Attack on Thailand be met with backlash against American expats here?
