While I agree with the idea of using the manufacturers service center, your big issue is time. Samsung service might take longer then you have. Worth asking though. The small repair shops would be done quickly, but potentially iffy work.

I am in Singapore right now and, except for a lot of Chinese tour groups, it is dead here.

I asked my neice, who lives here, why it was so quiet and she said the ecenomy is just bad right now.

Solution : The attraction should be stopped with immediate effect. The safety or lack of it should be assessed by an independent and qualified body. The Anujak Chang should be referred to the relevant body for breach of Health and Safety Law in endangering the lives of its guests and employees.

I see the flaw in your solution. Finding a truely independent body is hard enough in Thailand, but also QUALIFIED? Now THAT is almost impossible.

What about MBK? At what price can i expect to get an used iPhone 6/6S

At MBK you can expect to get a good quality COPY for a good price. Buy ONLY at known retailers. Doubt you will get much for your HTC though.

I'm on True and no problems getting to google. But also not using True's DNS, I's set to google (8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4)

However, for slow page loading on ThaiVisa, yes I agree with you completely. Horrendously slow some times.

Seems this 'lucky number' plate really wasn't so lucky after all.

Seriously, these people are morons. Spending 100000 baht to get a 'lucky number' plate is madness itself.

So let me guess, if you want to vote No, you will be sent home as you are a threat to national peace and order. But if you want to vote Yes, you are free to proceed.

The minister has no idea. Get rid of the seedy side of Thailand and people will go elsewhere. People on holiday are looking for a contrast from the daily normality of life.

And there is nothing normal about Thailand!

Ain't that the truth. There is absolutely NOTHING normal about Thailand. Shutting down the sex industry would send Thailand into a serious financial black hole. No more money to Issan, not to mention all the Hi-Sos who make their money off the Issan girls working on their backs.

One thing is for sure, if this country goes all nanny state, especially with regards to sex, I am outa here. I can get the puritanical BS back in North America, and with far better living and social conditions.

So, 'harassing Thai nationals online' constitutes defamation in this country?

I mean " happy ending " gosh, who doesn't like a bit of a happy ending in this, hard at times and unbearable life?

where is the harm here? it's a win, win and more win all around, and the pious and righties, prudish moral

guardians of this country stands on the hind legs, and they expect us to believe that those so moral defenders

don't have a mia noi or gik on the side?,,,,,

When will any of you get it into your thick heads that it's those of us who don't use prostitution have very in the way of recreational outlets here for the simple fact that laying on one's back for 5 minutes for all and sundry is a gift to the inherently lazy bloody Thai. Nothing to do with piety and 'rightyness', whatever the hell that is.

You might want to get off your high horse, before you fall off.

What is so disgusting is she will most likely get a walk on this all and going doing all she has been doing in the past. After all she was only doing her Thainess right? Or I feel a trip to becoming a Monk in the works.

Nope, no walk. They are stitching her up on a lese majeste charge. All else will be ignored/forgotten, including any investigations into her contacts among politicians, high ranking military and police. Too many skeletons to go there.

Stupid idea.

1: It would mean an end to visa on arrival.

2: The embassy/comsulate would offer said letter for an additional fee.

Quite scary that they can just go into your home and check without a warrant or anything. That they want to check for people overstaying.. ok but a house to house search for substances is crazy.

Get used to it.

So Mr. Fox, I take it from your response that you are all in favor of these gestapo tactics?

This country is going downhill FAST.

I have never found 2 identical Thai pussies, and believe me, I have looked.

Oh wait, they are talking about cats.

And who comes up with these moronic headlines?

They seemed to be trying to charge her over something she had not said, rather than what she did. What next thought crime?

Maybe precrime. They will arrest you, on the basis of what some soothsayer says, before you even know you are going to commit the crime. Maybe they could use those GT200 bomb detectors to point out precrime suspects.

bad idea. One large Bus with around 50 or more passenger need how many minibusses? The traffic and the parking problem will grow.

I would think they could cram everybody into 2 songtaus.

Plus it would be good for all those empty songtaus that just sit around doing nothing, or curb crawling and messing up traffic.

Wow, you would not get me onto one of those floating death traps, even if they paid me.

But will anything actually happen to these 16 police (other than the usual transfer to a different station)?

Why do I get the feeling that this is all just smoke and mirrors to distract us?

Bullhockey headline about "new lover". There's nothing in the original story to indicate they were anything more than acquaintances having a drink together.

In Thailand, there's only one reason for a woman to enter a man's room, just the two of you.

My Thai neighbors warned me of that, just after I arrived here.

They actually went into more detail ............. translated from polite Thai,

"Can we go somewhere more private" = I'm married so we'll have to use a short-time hotel.

"I can give you a lift home on my m/c" = I'm broke and married, so it's up against a tree in the jungle.

"Would you like to have a drink at my place" = I'm single so we can use my bed, I'll pay for the booze.

You are pretty good at making things up, but fail miserably on credibility.

For 2500 baht, it IS a cheapy. You need to spend about 5000 baht and up to get a more reliable and useable smartphone. Personally, I like Asus,.

Thailand is more trust worthy than the USA for investing? I find that very very hard to believe. Impossible to believe in fact.

At least in the USA there is the rule of law, and that is something that simply does not exist in Thailand. Throw in the endemic corruption that is so ingrained in Thailand and I would not invest one satang in Thailand.

So, how much money must one have to be considered hi-so?

How much money were in her bank accounts last week? Or the week(s) before?

Google is your friend.

Yes, check to be sure the fan(s) on the graphics card are working properly.

Those new games, especially the 3D ones can really push the limits of your graphics card, doubly so if you are using an older card. I had a similar experience some years ago with the system crashing more or less randomly. Except then the crashes became more frequent. Once I replaced the graphics card, all was well, no more crashes.

The real problem here, even if the police were real and 'just doing their job', is that the police have a crap reputation for abuse, intimidation and extortion. It is a reputation that they have richly earned over the years and as a result, no one trusts them one little bit.

If they want to reverse that impression, then they need to go overboard and be ultra professional at all times when dealing with the public AND start rooting out all the bad cops and actually arresting and prosecuting them.

I won't be holding my breath.
