Hezbollah do not need to defend themselves against the IDF. IDF retaliates when Hezbollah launches missiles into Israel, If Hezbollah didn't attack Israel, Israel will not defend themselves.

In January, it was announced that local authorities should take action against excessive noise levels from entertainment venues. As per usual, completely ignored!

in my experience, very few people drink beer from a bottle if you exclude foreigners. Most Thais buy large bottles which those "condoms" aren't available for. Most Thai bars, you cannot even buy small bottles.

Maybe, if you asked nicely.

Who are you suggesting should give it away? Would you give away billions to charity?

Dine and Dash? Where was the dash? Thay refused to pay, they did not run.

I keep seeing this term "Soft Power" recently. To be honest, I have no idea what it means and had to look it up, but still not clear. I just cannot see how these pants can be defined as "soft power"! Can somebody please explain?

If I remember correctly that requirement was introduced in Pattaya about 20 years ago.

A bit over 50,000 Baht/month may sound good for a Thai, but it seems very low for an experienced worker on an oil rig and exploitation!

If i was given a price and rejected it because I considered it too high, it would not even occur to me that the person may threaten my life. If you want to buy something in a shop and the assistant tries to overcharge you, will you meekly pay up in case the assistant attacks you with a knife?

"Visa free travel to Thailand." said the Chinese man, "That is great, I can afford that 10 million Baht condo now"!

I think that flyingtiger means that he pulled an all-night drinking session or started drinking very early in the morning. That being the reason for being under the influence of alcohol.

What is your point? Why mention that this is the 2nd Brit this month? Are you implying that all Brits are child molesters? You know that there are child molesters of all races and creeds, do you? There are black child molesters. Would you dare imply that all blacks are child molesters?

Does that mean that she would have had to pay 500 Baht per night she spent in prison or that her fine would be reduced by 500 Baht per night?

It is only a single young person, not a group.

In the photo it looks like his hands are still tied and it is daylight.

The court should not be commended. They should be questioned why it has taken so long, why wasn't it immediately thrown out? It was well known and could be easily checked that ITV was no longer any sort of media company and had not been for many years. If I remember correctly, the shares are worthless and it is not even possible to sell them.

It is strange that whenever something like this is reported the majority of posters assume that the person is guilty.

I remember around about 20 years ago, Pattaya police announced that they are illegal if used to carry passengers and any foreigner caught riding one with passengers will be prosecuted. Not locals, just foreigners! They should be registered but can only be registered to carry goods, not passengers in the sidecar.

I agree, especially when they use weapons as in this case.

This crime was apparently committed by a ladyboy? Who is the person being pointed at in the picture?

A DVD without a DVD option would be pretty silly, wouldn't it?

I totally agree with the posters that have to use the subtitles. Many times I have given up trying to watch something if it doesn't have subtitles as i have no idea what is going on. Watching old movies or TV shows, I generally have no problem (except with some regional accents). This must be a common problem and you would think that the program makers were aware and actually do something about it. While they are at it, they could quit doing so many dark scenes. It is doubly infuriating when you can't see what is going on because the scene is so dark!

I just can't imagine what they were doing to the beach chairs!

They were not half naked and they were not in the temple, they were lying in the grass outside. I have seen plenty of Thai women dressed similarly in temple grounds. They will put a wrap around if they enter the actual temple.
