Then no need for the plastic bag and baggage tie.

Says two things, the police are lazy, and will call it a suicide, or they dont want to catch the perps Remember that you can hang with your hands tied behind you back in LOS and be called a suicide. Things not looking good for tourists numbers.

True, but I am talking about how many of these large concrete spans may contain this faulty steel and how many buildings, built recently contain this steel A similar thing happened in NZ a few years back they discovered faulty steel from china and had to remove large spans of a flyover and build new ones , it was corruption at a political level although no one swung for it, it was covered up but luckily discovered as they said it world have been a disaster waiting to happen.

Covid killed hh in lot's of ways but it's still okay, nobody jumping out of hotels

I wonder how much off this steel has been used in buildings and flyovers, which seem to have trouble in Bangkok lately with bits falling down.????

There are minimum Tuk Tuks in Hua Hin, and I have lived, here 20 yrs , Tuk Tuks have not changed in price much over that time, they will demand a price from a tourist who knows no better but if your local they are still expensive with not much barter room, I never use them unless no other option, grab are running motorbike service here now I dont use them either just the car and the wifes bike, prices of food though have gone crazy and there are new shop bars and little holes popping up daily selling food , I would bet they dont have licenses and they don't look very clean avoid them or eat at your own peril, I have had Typhoid food poisoning, twice here. Just have a look at the prep, wiping chopping blocks down with the same towel all day , your doomed if you eat in some of these places, although Thais have a built in immunity and dont seem to get sick. I see lately many upmarket restaurants closed around Smorprong after having big money spent on renovations for the high season which was not very high around here and only lasted a few weeks, the old Dizzy Dolphin was renovated the guy spent a lot and it lasted about 3 months and closed now, Taboo spent a fortune and only get about 2 customers now. However the little Thai places seem to have a few every day , but you can't make money at 30/ 40 BHAT a meal they just survive, Big tree a nice place is only just surviving, 86 does ok when they have parties, the most regular with a few clients is Lucky Thips bar which has free food on Fridays, it tough going for everyone in the business here. Over the last few months 2 houses opposite bar 86 have made themselves into restaurant bars but attract hardly a customer mainly the odd Thai or a cheep Falung after a 40 BHAT meal.

Not only Chinese

Totally agree since dope was legalised thousands of dopes flock here and the war in Ukraine has caused Russians to flock here more than ever and that's caused crime to increase its no longer the same LOS

You should read what I am saying properly it's not blaming Thais it's the corruption from the government and the lack of proper checks and safety, lack of road control from the government and the harm that the government is now planning to build casinos which will cause major issues for Thai people, I am married to a Thai I have a son from her I support her mother for 15 years why would I blame Thai people, it's the corruption and government that's to blame.

What did they expect from legalized dope shops that are uncontrolled, THC levels, filling the place up with draft dodgers who run criminal enterprises, now bad chinese here peddling meth to gangs, buses blowing up, speed boats blowing up, highways falling down under construction and building collapse because corruption and cheap steel. then the uncontrolled madness on the roads, truck and bus drivers that don't have to use log books , although promised, they just drive and drink energy drinks and smoke and talk on their phone until they sometimes fall asleep, Now going to finish off the madness with casinos to wreck Thai peoples lives and drive more murder and mafia debt collectors, WELL DONE LOS

True had my rental completely trashed by Kiwis in NZ

Danger Will Robinson

Yes probably pissed someone off, drugs probably???

Because earthquake resistance wasn't applied to the construction and corruption of building materials and shortcuts

I'll go for jilted lover

This confirms the tourist shortage

The eyes of the world are on Putin and Trump at present no one cares about Tony's neck brace or his doctors.

They will make the beers under licence to overseas brands and distribute them as happens In NZ Australia ect ect

The vaccine is out of date and doctors are saying it does not work, now controversial amongst world experts with new evidence coming forward daily the FDA and politicians are under pressure to stop the vaccine, there are many articles from reliable sources there is a lot going down about covid damage from the vaccine at present. In NZ Doctors speaking out against science lead the charge with huge support from ex media journalists and huge petitions to parliament, they do pod casts and have their own radio station.

How many times have you seen servicemen in other countries dig up the rd. and replace a water main, then 2 weeks later dig it up to fit a fiber optic cable, and so on why cant they plan to do the lot with one dig, it happens regularly in NZ roads dug up time and time again and it happens here, some one is just greedy, collecting money on each contract. I asked the civil engineer on one job why they don't get their act together and she said its just politics.

A large sum of them.

All good, but where's the money going to come from, power lines very dangerous in this country, very tragic deaths RIP

I think the elderly will have to be careful

I went there a few times and decided it wasn't going to be climbed by me Very slippery and slimey for a start only fools climb this fall, sorry to say Tourist authority should put a sign up, no climbing

Exactly what happens in NZ
