  1. It’s good the “Deadly seven days” are over….now Thailand can get back to the usual carnage of 40+ per day!
  2. Nowhere is the same as 20 years ago….Thailand still, for me at least, offers an easy lifestyle..it’s still quite cheap..rental homes and apartments are plentiful everywhere..houses are cheap to build..the medical system is very good (choose carefully)..to name a few...
  3. One day they’ll admit that Thais cannot drive very well!…They can make a car go, but that’s about all! They won’t even turn the steering wheel properly to navigate a corner….
  4. Refugees must be cared for…not sent back to be executed! RTA is disgraceful!
  5. Hundreds more to follow this guy on their travel to God this weekend!
  6. More unbelievable rubbish from the RTP…And army!
  7. IMO, Thais driving ability has deteriorated over the past few years….the aggression has definitely increased, the ease at which drivers “lose” it here is crazy….brake checking, swerving and stopping mid traffic to argue or worse. That the police are useless, makes for absolute lawlessness on Thailand’s roads. These holidays will see hundreds killed….hundreds injured and maimed and all the travelling public get, are road blocks to scam a few baht!
  8. Great for Thailand’ reputation! Junta folk stick together….
  9. This’ll be interesting…..Thailand happy to send errant Chinese back….but does it work both ways? We hope so….
  10. If nothing else….it’s a great wet t-shirt event!
  11. All parties hope that stupid will prevail….”promises” of free money abound!
  12. Maybe Thais might realize that Covid is finally over…..but non mask wearing tourists, will no doubt still attract the frowns from Thais>:))
  13. I had the unfortunate luck of going here with friends for a day trip…at least 40 rotten speed boats…hundreds of Chinese swarming! Phang Nga…never again
  14. A crackdown….that’ll work….for 2 days! It’s just too hot to expect the police to be out of their air-con boxes!
  15. Just a bandaid solve…..now the KU Animal hospital will have no water…..So by September, the water shortage will be fixed. I hope it happens as water shortages have been ongoing forever in Hua Hin…..but, does anyone believe this?
  16. Seeing as there are virtually no footpaths along road…..my guess is that Silom Rd will be shut down!
  17. All parties offering stupid rewards for the votes, target the less fortunate in the hugely populated rural regions. There are millions of votes out there!
  18. Reducing the gene pool seems to be ongoing....but it's working..slowly!
  19. The venue not named..the manager not named....and again, no permit.....so payments not made?
  20. So there's a fee to be paid to park on roads eh?
  21. There must be a very high level of stupid required to get a job in local councils in Thailand. Like this disaster in Pattaya....so many places start civil road works in towns and create bedlam for locals....never completing sections before starting new areas...but opening the whole project at once and never completing anything!
  22. Bars with expat customers get raided if still serving a couple of minutes after 2am.....Thai pubs keep open until the fighting starts...like this bar, after 3am.
  23. My new phone now alerts me of suspected scam calls....telemarketing and internet protocol calls Very helpful and now so simple to block!
  24. Thailand has never been able to manage waste....whether sewage or materials waste. Thailand does not follow countries with successful waste disposal systems..instead simply continuing the same old practices of sewage entering storm drains and material waste being used in landfill......
