The vaccine is out of date and doctors are saying it does not work, now controversial amongst world experts with new evidence coming forward daily the FDA and politicians are under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.

Hua Hin Storm: Tragic Electrocution Exposes Electrical Hazards
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.

Visa run to Laos, always fine? No problem with TDAC
Try Kanchanaburi, they take you into Myanmar in a van, you sit in the van a man takes all the passports to the immigration tin shed then they drive you back passport stamped, you have to hand passport over on the Thai side pay a fee get into the van and your back within a hour with extension, that was my experience a few years ago anyone know if it is still the same?.

Monk Found Dead in Monastic Cell with Plastic Bag Over Head and Pillow on Face
Highly unlikely. I used to attend the local Thai temple in NZ on a regular basis, and help the Monks with maintenance , I learnt there was a lot of jealousy and even affairs going on which amazed me at the time, but these things seemed to disappear or the Monk changed temples.

Thailand Adjusts Tourism Goals Amid 30% Drop in Chinese Visitors
There seems to be a huge drop in tourists, Palm Hills sports club has no one playing squash or pickle ball everyday, the pool has maybe one visitor a day, and I have the gym to myself, this has been the same through the supposed high season which did nothing for palm Hills or Smorprong clubs bars and restaurants, you can blame the bike deliveries for a lot of that. Downtown Tesco and Blueport seemed to have a few tourists but everywhere else was quiet, there is now houses turning into restaurants and small bars ,and carports being used as shops on every street around here, the Thai people are struggling, crime is increasing and god knows what will happen if casinos open up, that will see more money collectors, shootings and general havoc erupt amongst many Thai people, Thais are easily addicted to gambling I've seen it first hand amongst my Thai wife and her friends when living in NZ, many of us had to bar the wife from the casino or move here to get away from the disgusting pain it inflicts on the children and the family home, I've seen so much misery created from casino gambling in my Thai friends in NZ that im positive it is going to happen on a much larger scale here, shame on the politicians that think it will benefit the country, it will destroy it.

Thai Police Arrest Three Foreign Nationals in Major Drug Bust
What is happening in Thailand now has happened in NZ for a few years now, the Chinese were invited to come to NZ. The British Hong Kong police said the mafia would not come to NZ. Well what a load of krup that was, the Mafia moved in big time and are responsible for infiltrating big bike gangs and selling Meth, the number one problem in NZ. And now the Thai news reports nearly everyday of chinese assaults on people and drug busts are becoming a daily event, never saw this amount of crime in Thailand from Chinese tourists who were virtually on guided tours a few years ago, may Buddha help Thailand

Pattaya Authorities Launch “Operation Coconut Ghosts” to Crack Down on Foreign Prostitution
This has been going on for years Russians even had private disco rooms in some Hotels for their own use they hired whole floors of small Hotels, I used to stay in one years ago and were told by the desk not to go to that floor, I had a peek one afternoon no one was around and they had a nice band room set up, this was about 20 years ago. Walk around Nana and see the African girls in bright colours standing along the street, the BMWS can't detect them
