I think the Dreamliner is a bit better than the A380.

These NGV vehicles are real deathtraps. The compressed natural gas fuel is much more likely to leak and explode in an accident than gasoline cars, as it is stored under pressure.

Diesel is the safest fuel, as it needs extreme heat to ignite.

It's the LPG that is dangerous and explodes on impact not NGV. NGV is much safer and usually does not explode.

If you are at least 50 yrs. old, and can qualify for the financial qualifications of 65,000 Baht a month, or 800,000 Baht in the bank, or if you are married 40,000 Baht a month income or 400,000 Baht in the bank you can get a either a retirement visa or a Visa to support a Thai spouse.

Unfortunately the two sides will never agree. They don't agree when parliament is in session and they won't agree now. Even when one party is definitely correct the other party will disagree just to disagree.

This is Thai culture. The kids always sleep with the adults.

"The Red Shirt leaders will not accept a guilty verdict" Who the FK do they think they are above the law?

" As chair of the National Rice Policy Committee, Yingluck established 12 subcommittees to oversee and suppress any graft problems arising from the project. Caretaker Labour Minister Chalerm Yoobamrung was given the job of looking into corruption related to the scheme since early 2012. "

This is Yingluck's defense ?

Mr. Chalerm in charge? We don't have to know anything else. That explains it all.

I watch Cable TV, although I have a 46 inch LCD TV so I get Digital anyway.

Her parents paid eac of the 9 families one million Baht restitution.

These people are all criminals and belong in Jail instead of running a government. Once the PT party is disbanded and the current government is forbidden to run again for at least 5 yrs. maybe their is a chance for a half way decent honest government

Former Bangkok governor candidate Kosit Suvinitjit was on the flight and even though he didn’t join the complainants at Suvarnabhumi airport he agreed with them.

"I would have liked to have seen more ground staff helping passengers. There should have been interpreters in several languages to inform passengers of the situation, as many were tourists," he said.

Thailand: Needs to be ASEAN Hub of airport interpreters despite restrictions on non-Thais.

Kosit, you have a new slogan for the next election.

In order for an aircraft to get certified you must be able to evacuate all passengers within 90 seconds.

This whole thing will just disappear. Money talks in Thailand

The Transport Ministries must do a better job in enforcing the number of hours a commercial driver is able to work. This terrible bust VS truck accident in Sara Buri the other day was caused by the truck driver falling asleep at the wheel, and killed many people due to the fact that he was probably working too many hours without the proper rest.

One thing you have to realize is that every immigration office has their own rules. So best to check with your local immigration office to see if this rule applies.

Both Pol. Capt. Chalerm and Mr. Jatuporn have finally come to the realization that they are no longer needed nor necessary to the Party. Both are not happy campers.

It's a good thing to get both of these criminals pushed aside.

Yep, that's what happened. The big Boss fired him. Put him in a safe position behind the scenes

There was a video posted on this forum last week that was taken in Hong Kong where Dr. Thaksin was meeting with mendicants wanting this or that. As Dr. Thaksin's car was pulling away, Mr. Chalerm appeared on the video, staggering and having to be pulled back to the curb. I believe Mr. Chalerm has let the demon 'ear medicine' control his life, loosen his tongue, and ruin his health. I believe the Big Boss noticed this and became afraid that Mr. Chalerm was losing his grip.

Mr. Chalerm cannot admit to himself that he has a 'ear medicine' problem so he is looking around for other reasons for his demotion and the person who probably stands up to his unreasonable behavior the most is Gen. Thawee. Gen. Thawee is a serious man with a hell of a lot of responsibility, with soldiers and teachers dying regularly under his jurisdiction. He probably had many arguments with Mr. Chalerm but who, on this forum or in Thailand, believes Gen. Thawee has the clout to unseat Mr. Chalerm from power.

Having scared Dr. Thaksin with his excessive drunkenness, big mouth, and failing health, Mr. Chalerm should be very careful in the future how he bad-mouths Dr. Thaksin's government. Mr. Chalerm is a loose cannon and may have to be permanently retired for everyone's safety as he is jeopardizing the entire operation.
