Just buy them off Lazada and ensure you have the "Local" box checked when searching so that you only buy ones that are already in Thailand and don't need to go through customs.  

I was just looking for a friend, ???? and I noticed <deleted> is spelt with two 'l's. 

I once saw bits of somebody's brain lying on the road. Not nice. ????

Better lighting and road surfaces would help!

is this some form of tit for tat, the Koreans announce they are sending back Thais, then suddenly BJ is on the case and it just happens to be Koreans?

 

2 v 10,000 doesn't much tit-for-tat.

Here's an idea, declare a blanket amnesty to all overstayers, get to know who they're, fine then accordingly and renew their visa if they are good people and not a  wanted criminals of fujities of some sort, that way Thailand will show that they're reasonable and forgiving and by doing that they may have the chance to clear the books and start fresh...

Far too sensible. Therefore not likely to happen. 

This is a great April fool.

Under 5 minute walk from my condo. T21 was a good move for that area. Great food court and 2 floors of resteraunts

 

 

Made a bad intersection even worse.

It is sad…but you also have to envy people who have been fortunate enough to experience that depth of feeling for one another. A rare privilege.

Quite. My wife would be having a party! I don't mean it tirak.

I am glad I did that extra shopping at Big C yesterday.

I was having a causal relationship with a working Rayon Girl back in the  early 90s……she came home after one nights work  with 3,200 baht…  I asked her who gave the 200 Baht-- They all did she said.

 

 

--

Seriously though—try to keep away from Rayon girls…. The word --Map-Ta-Put -- would send shivers down anyone’s spine who knows that area.......

 

 

The first time I heard this joke it was sixpence and the Household Cavalry!

They get what they deserved. I'm still amazed with people opposing death penalty because only strict law will deter people from committing these kind of crimes.

Worked well in this case.

While the Thai passengers sit there and watch or film the argument with their smart-phones, one Thai gentleman has the "balls" or community spirit to stand between the Chinese man and the crazy Thai lady-boy to keep both from fighting. This is the kind of Thais we need more of...calm and caring--not just sitting and laughing.  Praise goes out to the Thai man (with the black backpack) to care.

A video to entice those quality tourists we hear so much about.

Obviously I disagree with that statement!

I think the manifesto's stance on immigration is very much in line with current British public opinion and a sure-fire vote winner - polling done by CCO indicates its the most popular Conservative policy. In fact I would say that the majority of working class Labour supporters are also strongly against immigration.  Moreover I often see posts on TV from UK expats lamenting how the UK has changed due to mass immigration!

My impression is that hostility to immigrants (especially non-Caucasian) has increased sharply since the Brexit vote. My own wife (Thai) has experienced a couple of racist incidents here in the UK over the last year (and we lived in a very 'diverse' city).

Personally I don't know anybody who is not in favour of reducing immigration, and reducing non-European immigration is top of the list.

 

So Britain and the Tories have become a bunch of racist xenophobes.

"No valuables found" also strikes me as odd. 

 

Strikes me as sensible. Why go out entertaining ladies of the night carrying all your valuables?

Quite.

I was in Krasang during the harvest at end of last year. Difficult to imagine this happening there. RIP to the young woman; an utterly horrific way to die.

It's the five on a motorbike with NO LIGHTS on the WRONG side of the road AT NIGHT that freaks me out.  I was parked one night at a local food stall, looked behind in the rear vision mirror (because that's where the traffic comes from right?), nothing coming, so indicated pulled out and missed a family of five on a motorbike down my right hand side, on the wrong side of the road at night.  Never saw him coming, no street lights.  Crazy stuff...

I had this on Asoke last night at zero speed where a motorbike "taxi" was on the wrong side of the road and the car on the inside was blocked and the motorbike was blocking me. There are chains to stop this kind of thing along the road but that did not deter him. I stopped and blocked all the traffic behind me while he sorted himself out. He didn't look happy but that is his problem.

In all of the years I have spent in Thailand I have never once witnessed a policeman issuing a speeding ticket. Where is the deterrent, other than your desire to protect those you have been entrusted to protect? Or your desire to see that your family members make it to their next birthday? Or just basic decency and respect for others?

Firstly my condolences to all those that died and their families.

I have had one; for 200 Baht in Sakon Nakhon. That said I was on the Petchkasem Road the other day and the only time the traffic slowed was when a Highway Patrol car was spotted and a Policeman on a motorbike. Other wise the usual madness. So what do I see. A massive road block with literally more than a hundred Police in attendance; doing what roadblocks do; not a lot.

My question is simply would have it been a little more effective to have these Policemen going up and down the road?

This is very sad but it seems like he may have brought this on himself. He was probably avoiding the Dutch government when they were trying to contact him regarding their investigation. They only went to the Thai government because he avoided them I guess? If he would have been forthcoming with the Dutch authorities then the Thais may never have become involved.

 

You can't avoid the long arm of the law by hiding in Thailand like the old days., with lots of governments cooperating with each other.

Where is the evidence that supports this fantasy you have created?
