Having the technology behind it to real time cross reference an immigration database located remotely would be quite a system......don't forget they can't keep sand on the beach or CCTV working here.

Geez, on TV and in movies they just dip their pinkie in it and taste a tiny amount and know what it is! What do you reckon, people are throwing away sachets of 'Equal' when the police make a raid!

It was standard for me growing up in the UK.... They have adopted it in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait and the result is extremely low drunk driving deaths. Drink driving has become socially unacceptable in the UK now, but I just don't see that attitude becoming commonplace here, in the locals, and sadly many tourists and Expats. You already state the number of road deaths is high here, do you expect removal of alcohol restrictions would reduce that, or increase the numbers.

It appears she was allowed to keep them!

Surely a Visa exempt gives 45 days, and a Tourist Visa 60 days to a US national.... either of which should be brought to premature end!

Are you sure that such a commentary would be okay wrt defamation laws? It is very likely to cause a loss of business and as such I thought could get the poster in trouble.

And this relates to catching snakes how exactly! No commentary about how Muslims force women to cover their hair and sometimes their faces with no health benefits whatsoever?

Three thousand people tried to flag him down but his failure to stop raised no suspicions.

How on earth has this run of crime gone on for 7 years without being addressed previously.....???

Could his wife perhaps do it for him? (Just thought I might join in the nonsense!)

Although the fact that many of them are coming from Russia may be less praiseworthy and laudable.

I do wonder if it reduced the number of kids being mown down by some drunk driving home though......

Pity Russia can't just stay home, then there would not be one.

I never take the passport..... but the other night I was on my way out and thought, why the hell am I taking my phone with me.... it doesn't fit well in any pockets and don't need the damned thing..... So of course later I am in the midst of a police raid ( first time in many years) without any ID etc, recalling an incident of a tourist who got caught up without enough cash and got locked up for the night!

Perhaps he can get some for the trip back, if indeed that is where he is going!

Well it is relevant as someone I know recently died of pneumonia..... I had thought it was less of an issue in modern times.

Freedom of choice,,,,,,,

In recent times it is hardly rare for Western politicians to do things that make them look stupid! This narcissistic and psychotic man seems to follow the example.

My, that is by far the most optimistic, yet unlikely, post today.

Since pneumonia has a multitude of different causes (bacteria, virus, fungi), is there a single effective vaccine?

The police in the UK are fully occupied wasting their time stopping motorway traffic as these protesting idiots climb up the overhead gantries!

Wandering about the various nightlife spots making a nuisance of themselves.

It is similar to London....when someone is tired of soccer, they are tired of life. It is usually USA guys who whine, simply because they are not very good at it, yet seem to prefer fat people standing about for 4-5 hours while they advertise coca cola! Let us hope for a good tournament....sadly Internationals at this level usually are not as entertaining.

Yummy, chicken feet and duck webs and blood soup with noodles!

You should stop bringing the UK into the discussion, you only make the Thai authorities look good!
