And a wanted criminal can control Thai politics for years from outside of the country.

Did you just go on the spur of the moment
OneMoreFarang replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I think the biggest hurdle many people make themselves is that they somehow think they make a decision for the rest of their lives. They don't! After I made a few holidays in Thailand I thought I want to move to Thailand and live there. And I did that. I liked it, I made enough money, was able to legally stay here, fine. But all that was not clear from the beginning. So, it could have happened that I would have gone back or somewhere else after months or years. And why not? It's like "she is the girl I want to live with". Yeah, sure. For one year, a decade, or the rest of your life? Take it easy and don't make too many long-term commitments. -

So, what's the problem? He can party for a couple of months and then think again what he wants to do. Maybe party some more. I planned my move to Thailand, but I was much younger and had almost no money. So, I had to plan how to make that work. With enough cash it's just: Let's go and look if I like it. -

You believe in Bad Luck Bob?
OneMoreFarang replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
What does that have to do with bad luck? I guess it's like some idiots who have a car or motorcycle accident and then they say it was bad luck because it rained or the guy in front of them braked... -
It is obvious that the Thai police is rotten to the core. There are lots of very obviously shady people in there. It is well known that large amounts of money have to be paid to get into the police and to get promoted. How could an honest person be able to get into that organization and stay there and even get promoted? Impossible! And obviously this is only possible because the politicians allow that to happen. And those politicians, who are often local influential people, are voted into their positions by the Thai voters. The system is rotten in every way, not just the police.

I agree. The worst part if how uncovered meat gets to those places. I saw at opening time that some employees arrive with sealed packages of meat. And then they open those packages and put the meat in the open all tother with no cover. The worst I saw was in an exclusive supermarket chain. In the morning they put some of the meat products, which was in the refrigerator on the wall, on unrefrigerated tables in the aisle. And in the evening, they put the rest back in the fridge. I never bought anything that should be refrigerated in that shop again.

Sad I wonder if any beauty treatment ever helped. I don't remember any female actually looked better after some treatment. Different, yes. Better? No.

It's amazing that billions of people still believe in something that doesn't make any sense. But I think we should keep that kind of behavior in mind when we look at how people vote, what kind of scams they accept, etc. I guess all humans have a brain. Imagine they would actually use it all the time.

Probably nobody told the workers that they are supposed to be straight up.

There is a reason why those tools have manuals. And if people can't read or don't want to read then they could still ask someone to show them how to use them or watch a YouTube video. But it seems that just doesn't happen. IMHO it seems that most workers here don't use their brain - or maybe they don't have one. Some things should be easy to understand like you write. But they don't understand. They don't even realize that they did something wrong. It's sad, but it is reality in Thailand.

Do any Farangs actually choose to live in Isaan?
OneMoreFarang replied to Goat's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I met the loveliest people girls in Soi Cowboy and Nana. ???? Small, cute, brown, smiling. My favorites are from Buriram, it seems they all come to Bangkok. -

They obviously do it wrong. Real man: I live in X. You have two choices: Live with me in X or go away. -
I am not able to have a discussion about types of cars. And there is no one fits it all answer or solution. I encountered enough people who have vehicles with lithium batteries who have no clue there are any risks. Somehow some of them remind me of vegetarians who tell everyone that they are vegetarian and they live so much healthier, and and and. Often it's virtual signaling and nothing else. If you own and use an EV, fine. And you probably know that there are risks with the batteries. Good that you know about those risks. But how many EV owners don't know and don't care?
