Because they can. A bar-owner (well more of a nightclub owner) I knew said he paid one lot and that was it. He occasionally got police from other regions coming in trying it on and they were sent away with a flea in their ear.... and he got on the phone to the guy he did pay!

Yes, and utility bill details, email, and we have all received a 90 day report with someone's passport copy on the back! Nobody there has a concept of our privacy.

I thought that was what temples were for! How callous.

Spot the redundant word!

Tried that, caught nothing and killed 3 innocent bystanders and a few soi dogs.

I had one a few weeks back that wanted extra as I was not really near to his location. But generally they have been okay and usually pleased with the tip I give them.... (and still a cost to me of 1/2 of what a taxi would charge). Surprised about being delivered to the wrong destination, as that is set by the customer and the driver is guided in by a Thai GPS. When Bolt originally came out I did sort of see it as 'too good to be true'... and expected initial prices were a 'loss leader' approach. Covid interfered with that plan perhaps. Taxi drivers always complain.....

The reaction when someone who 'used to' stops and tries to cut away is when it gets dangerous.

Jeez man, you could have at least used a full pic and made it seem somewhat less 'all about the xxxx'......

This is very concerning, we have had a few 'crazed' type attacks and robbery attempts in the last few weeks. Is it people under the influence of modern day drugs?

They do not know and they do not care, they have fun. Most in the West have got Christmas wrong too!

Which organization do you mean, FIFA? Hardly a secret with Joseph Blatter previously at the helm. FiFA is involved in quite a few charitable foundations. I do not feel boycotting will help the situations you talk of, they willingly came to work in Qatar and were then able to support families back in their homeland. More to do with construction companies than FIFA.

So get rid of bikes?

Suit yourself. I shall watch a selection of games..... I do not see how that impacts my moral compass.

Sort of like, it's not murder, it's execution..... State supported.

Who is paying for this one?

View Talay 5 has loads of steps.

Now that surely will spoil the image of Pattaya as a family friendly resort!

Endemic.....

The call to the police was soon known to the casino operators.... bit of a giveaway!

Plucky guy.... doubt I would try and catch it!

Got that next door too....

The one at the back of my house that is often occupied by a pack of barking strays!

Rather a special group... would the families of those who were killed or suffered due to drugs, addiction and related drug violence be larger or smaller?

They will be welcoming them with a surprise charge of 300 baht next year.

Not all that unusual where I am, not far out of Pattaya.
