If the shares were worth x amount before thaksin got into power and after he start fiddling with the laws, the value increased by y amount, then surely the fair result would be to take y leaving her with x.

Try looking at it this way instead.

If he uses something that is legally his, and does something illegal to make a lot more, then I believe that he should loose the lot.

It is like gambling. He took a risk, made a gamble, cheated, and now got caught. He should not lose only what he made illegally, but also what he gambled with to make it. That is hte risk he took.

And, the idea that this man actually made money legally and honorably is a joke. He received government contracts for computers, software, netwoks, etc., from the beginning. He then moved on to being granted a concession for mobile phone networks, a concession for 10 years. What a great deal. Your own monopoly. He and his pals also tried to take over EGAT.

It is rare when an actual big time theif gets caught. Even though all of them are the same, isn't it nice to see at least one get caught. It is not that the laws are being applied unfairly, but that they are actually being applied. Maybe they will be applied more often? ...maybe not? :-)

(you forgot about those investors who bought the Dow in 1929 and were flat 45 years later!)

Som Nam Na....

to the murder of innocent people by the totally corrupt police force. ???/

^not at all, good to get rid of drug scum.

No one arrested.

No one tried.

NO one of stature in the drug game shot or arrested.

The police had a freer hand than usual to shoot anyone they wanted, and they did.

You do not yet know what rent you will receive or how many months of the year the property will be rented out for your income.

You do not yet know what percentage the agent will expect for renting the property for you, and you do not yet know the cost of repairs, or created repairs the agent will generate to improve his income.

Also, when renting out property, most renters want long-term. It will not be easy to find people who wnat to jump in for a couple or few months per year during the months that you are not here. Renters move in and stay for a year or longer. If you really want to buy a condo, then do not make plans to stay in it. Make plans to rent it out full time.

Best of luck

Many of you are stating that the OP is basing his complaint on the verbal contract not being kept.

I see it that the OP wanted to sign, but the company did not want to sign until a later date. This is the company not keeping their agreement to offer him the one apartment on their agreed upon date.

OP, you are better off out of there.

Something like this?

I built mine a few years ago for 4000 baht

I have springs on the bottom, and if you do the same, them also have tension springs going the other way in order to avoid bounce and rocking

Siam Commercial Bank on Beach Road near South Pattaya Road will issue them as well.

They usually have $US, GBP, Euro.

They may ask you for proof of income , or for proof of bringing the funds into the country if it is a large check.

Is there anyone on T.V that actually likes Mr. Thaksin. It seems like all the farangs on here feel personally wronged by this man. What has he actually done to the farangs? and he has only upset the thai elite not the common thai.

as a side note, he increased the immigration fees for visa extentions from 500 to 1900 baht.

He is one of the many slimy businessmen who got into politics. He just happened to be too greedy and not share with the others who run the country. For not sharing, and for trying to take control (he is new super-rich) not like them, the other super rich decided that they would actually use some of the laws in the country which usually do not apply to them.

How many countries in the world have ever held $2 billion of any businessman's or politician's money. I cannot think of anytime in any place that it has happened before. Yes, we know why, because he was trying to upset the balance, but it is still a rarity for this much money to be held by any government.

His concern for the people of poverty in this country goes no further than their votes.

You win Story of the Day!

Jan 2001.

I have been to the US three times since 1987

As one girl whom I know says "blood is heavier than water".

Yes, that is what she says.

So, very simply, if your to-be-wife cannot tell her mother off now, she never will, and the 200,000 will be gone. The mother will then tell her daughter to get another 100,000 for something else, and then there will be something else. It will not end.

SinSod is only a deposit, a down payment. Wait until the monthly payments and the maintenance start rolling in.

The mother does not care about her daughter. She cares about getting every last cent that she can from you, and when you stop paying, she will push her daughter with guilt trips, to replace you. And, I am sorry to say, she will. She is showing that she will not stand up to her mother.

I know three sisters. One of them will do anything to give and give to her mother. Astupid and weak girl.

The other two tell their mother and brother off.

Find a woman like the later two.

About 100 police and soldiers showed up

Why would 100 show up? That is an awful lot.

at the plantation to identify the bodies of Jaemae Hayae, 50, and her daughter Barati Labo, 25, after reports of a homicide. Inquiries showed the two were tapping rubber trees when they were ambushed and shot by an unknown group of gunmen, who fled with the victims' pistols.

How would it be known that the killers fled with their pistols. There is no mention of a family member stating that the were armed? Maybe there is more info in the Thai edition.

Lifetime prison sentences are good teachers

A friend of mine rented one for a day just to see what it was like

He returned it in under two hours vowing never to ride one again.

I think the price is about 60K, too.

Maybe the gov. can try hiring lifeguards directly??? :-)

"And when Thailand asks too many questions about itself and does not know where to go, the only institution that works is the military."

What does he mean by works?

What part of the country do you live in?

Happens from Mexico to the USA as well

We spend a fortune in Iraq but could have spent 5% of it to flush out the rulers in Burma, and get it moving in a better direction.

You call that damaged?

I think destroyed might be a better term

I wonder if any company would insure an elephant

I am sure that the automobile owners will be fully compensated by the elephant camp, as the auto owner's insurance companies will go after it.

And, if the camp needs to pay for the cars, then the same should apply for the medical needs of the injured party

..or, the Swede may get a letter in the mail asking for him to pay for the vehicles.

They simply do not know and do not care.

thanks

Can anyone advise the OP on possibly changing his intake or exhaust to get a little more power as well?

A few months ago, one of the posters mentioned using a platinum spark plug?

Can someone elaborate on the benefits and if these are available for smaller bikes, and where they are available?

Thanks

Clean or replace the air filter too.
