  1. So not concerned at all about the AQI of your fellow citizens or their guests? They can all die of asthma as far as Bualong is concerned.
  2. Well good luck to you. Procedures change all the time here, and often they can be different at different offices. I'd like to be able to do the same thing.
  3. Have you done a market research survey in the US and Europe? I am surprised that anyone has even heard of the magnificent and noble TAT in those countries.
  4. Thailand will regret not being nicer and more unctuous to the Great British Tourist and Ex-Pat.
  5. Years ago I had advice that fixed term accounts could not be used for the 800K B immigration money because the money had to be immediately available in an emergency. Having said that most fixed term accounts I've had allow you to access your money early for a small penalty. I'm hoping the immigration law has changed as it would be nice to get some interest on the 800K.
  6. Are you suggesting that the ever so truthful and transparent corporate media might somehow be up to no good? Up to something underhand? I am totally shocked.
  7. I'm guessing this might be a cause of even more confusion. Why not invite ex-astronauts, ex-greengrocers and T-shirt stall holders to speak to provide a counter narrative. In which language will this congress be held? Will there be a translation? Simultaneous or post facto?
  8. You would be trashing a Palestinian who turned up at a Jewish march for being provocative.
  9. They should threaten to pass a retroactive law for when this Senate is dissolved, threatening to recoup the cost of the trips.
  10. It is not illegal if you renounce the NPT, which NK and Iran have done. Both countries were suffering UM sanctions for dropping the treaty. Both tried to trade a commitment not to seek nukes with IAEA oversight , for some sanctions relief. Scurrilously they didn't get the sanctions relief, despite the IAEA confirming that they were not breaking the treaty. Do you blame them for dropping the NPT? I think all nations that want to stay independent and sovereign need nukes to prevent the US with regime changes like Saddam & Gaddafi (both of whom gave up nukes). Kim saw he was in the same program and said FO and built his nukes (we think), but we don't see the US harassing him with colour revolutions too much these days.
  11. Hanging by the neck is too good for this @$$hole
  12. I can't understand anyone who uses tuk-tuks which have to be the most vile form of transport ever designed my humans, a step down from a donkey and cart.
  13. Did Suvarnabhumi get better? I'm surprised. Or did the airports in the 10 places above get worse? Tricky one. But it doesn't matter as we have few alternatives to Swampy.
  14. Shameful US. Two weeks ago they were talking the only solution as being two state, now they veto it.
  15. Will we get our lunch quicker then????????
  16. The non-horn-using readers are obviously saints and they will get their reward in heaven. As of me, well whenever someone on the road makes a mistake my put my fist on the horn for about 5 minutes straight. Despite warnings from the family, I haven't been killed yet.
  17. I'm so glad they picked a really quality newspaper as a partner. As a user of Asean Now I'm happy, but as a businessman, I know that the combination of two weak businesses never results in a strong new business. Rather the reverse, the weaknesses of both parties become more glaringly apparent.
  18. This is a fantastic story. I don't know about you but I would never have thought of doing this. It's brave, imaginative, and daring....but also crass, stupid and tasteless. Just shows you how difficult it can be to guess the thoughts of others. Imagine getting this lovely woman in a bank. She look like she's helping him , but she's there to rob his money. Shoulda gone to SpecSavers.
  19. Scotland leading the pack as always. Why is it Scots are much more intelligent than ordinary people?
  20. "Mischaracterised"??????? Biden flat out lied.
  21. So far I am rather unimpressed with technology, it has some pros but it has been used to make customers life more difficult and businesses more profitable by making it impossible for you to speak to a human at almost any business. Customer service has become deplorable. I very much doubt I will be impressed by, or feel more secure with AI surveillance. I will be waiting for the great mistake where a troop of trigger happy soldiers bursts into my home looking for weed. I think, like with EVs, the public and investors are being conned by AI. At the end of the day it is GIGO....garbage in, garbage out and we see with Google's rewriting of history putting women and bald men in pictures of Presidents, that it should be called AS...Artifical Stupidity.
  22. Israel seems to look for reasons to break norms and taboos when it comes to killing people they don't like, and it seems that anyone not Jewish is on their not like list. It is a problem when your religion gives you such a sense of superiority that you see others as subhuman like Palestinians. Israel's notions of self defence seem to be misguided, like the US's, that they see bombing an embassy in Turkey as self defence. No, sad to say we have seen the true side of Israel during this genocide and it is not pleasant, and it does not convince me that it would not use nukes against a country that had none.
  23. I don't make too many predictions but I do make this one, Trump won't be elected and I think Biden will drop out.....he can't campaign and can't debate and America should have a leader who has all his faculties. I think Trump's law fare situation is looking dire, and there is a limit to how much the SCOTUS can dig him out of his farcical situation. His musings against biased judges and biased AGs and prosecutors are always spot on, but his bleating them out without compelling evidence isn't helping him. I think he will be rid of the vile perjurer Fani Williams soon, but will still have a law suit against him in a hostile county. Contrast the FBI won't prosecute Biden because he is frail and weak minded and I betcha Hunter gets tried in a Biden-or-die state/county. American Injustice in a politically polarised country where when one side is winning they care nothing for due process....but complain like hell when they are losing. The US is a BROKEN BANANA STATE. Pity the poor world with this pretend leader as the hegemon.
  24. TBH, I can't tell whether they are real or water pistols?
