  1. Great! Bring her to Thailand and put her in jail. Maybe that will remind some politicians that they are not above the law. Because what will those politicians learn if people like Thaksin and Yingluck and many others walk away from their crimes?
  2. If they want to be together, let them be together. If they want to have legal rights with each other, i.e. if one of them goes to hospital, fine. But make sure they can't adopt children. Children should have a male father and a female mother. It's in the interest of the children so that they grow up in "normal" conditions. Don't force children into male/male or female/female partnerships.
  3. I am 99% sure 20 staff didn't attack a customer, at random. You can be sure there was a reason. Otherwise, why would they do it? Why do I "know" this. Almost 30 years in Thailand including thousands of visits to bars. Things don't just happen without any reason.
  4. It also shouldn't happen that customers don't pay and misbehave. I have to admit I don't mind that in Thailand it is well known that if you misbehave there will be consequences, right now, and not a year later in a court of law. Most people know that and behave. Win/win for all people who don't like trouble.
  5. But there is the problem that more and more YouTubers include advertisement videos within their videos. There is no skip button. The good news is that one can forward to the place after the advertisement, but sometimes, especially with long videos, that is difficult. Summary: If you don't want to see ads then you have to click here or there. You can't completely avoid them.
  6. I met a couple of my customers, owners and managers of companies, in bars, drinking beer and sometimes playing with the girls. Who is or isn't a low life has little to do with their social status. If you know the girls well, ask them which customers are a-holes. It might be people who you don't expect it from.
  7. Who is renting out that place? Who receives the money and who receives a commission? I would be surprised if anybody authorized whoever did that to do that. If you are serious about it, ask questions, record the answers, and inform the committee. And let them know that you will follow up with a lawyer to check if what they do is legal.
  8. If they would be serious about this, then they first would have to create a long list of all influential people in Thailand. That list will obviously include high ranking police officers, military, politicians and businesspeople. They are all influential - by definition. And after they have that list then they need criteria when are influential people illegally influential. I.e. if they regularly commit crimes, including corruption, extortion, murder and others. And of course, this should be independent of political affiliations. Now, who in Thailand is qualified to do this work to sort who of the influential people is criminal? In theory the police should be qualified for this. But this is Thailand, and we all know that the police are part of the problem and not so much part of the solution. Summary: Mission impossible! Currently it can't possibly happen in a just way in Thailand.
  9. In other words: they ruled that she had a lot to do with the corruption in the rice scam. Sounds about right. But then, some people will argue that she had no idea what she was doing, and she just followed the instructions from her brother.
  10. You should be able to do that in many Thai embassies. It seems all of them have their own procedures. Some have detailed information, others not. You can google the Thai embassy in Phnom Penh. They have detailed information what you need to apply for a Non-B visa. I suggest prepare the documents together with someone from the company in which you will work. There are lots of documents...
  11. I met my gf in a gogo bar. We visited her friends in other bars or just had some drinks. It's no problem. It can be a problem if the "gf" tries to pick up other customers. That is obviously something she shouldn't do. But then, she should know that.
  12. After another article like this I started a couple of months ago kind of survey thread in this forum to find out how many of the farangs who live in Thailand were ever attacked without any reason. There were many replies and (almost?) everybody replied that they never got into any unprovoked trouble in Thailand. That's the same with me. I visited many bars in many locations many times and I never had a situation where one or more Thais started a fight without a reason. Normally it just doesn't happen if you don't provoke them. And if you provoke them then maybe learn from your mistakes and don't do it again.
  13. Bar girls are not interested in any dick, big or small. They are working to make money.
  14. Just in case someone ask: Are all people who enjoy sun, fun and beer "low life morons"? What do you and the other good people do? No sun, no fun, no beer?
  15. How dare he openly talks about those things which everybody else does in secret.
  16. Really? How often was anybody triggered by you or your friends? IMHO there is always a reason why these things happen. And normally there are warning signs before anything happens. And there are moments to say I am sorry and walk away. But of course, some people think they can do whatever they want, and nothing will happen. Yeah, sure, just try it.
  17. Will she return all that money from the corrupt rice scam? Or will she run around free in Thailand in luxury without any punishment? And don't forget to put her in jail for fleeing the country to avoid jail.
  18. When I clicked on that link on the top of the page, I got an error message. ;)
  19. Maybe about 10 years ago the police often stopped bikes going from Sukhumvit to Rama 4. They stopped bikes for not riding on the left lane. I think in that area there are 4 lanes in each direction and the first lane was always half full of parked cars. When I approached the police from far away, I rode with my bike on the most left lane relatively slowly in a high gear. When they saw me coming and ignored me because I was driving according to the rules then maybe 50m before I met the police, I shifted down to the first gear, accelerated to 14,500 RPM and 100km/h and passed the police on my way to escape. I really liked that. In the other direction I came down from the elevated bridge over Rama 4. I made sure I was fast, maybe 150km/h and on the right lane. Also there the police tried to stop everybody who was not riding on the left lane. But when they spotted me, it was already too late for them to do anything. They never even tried to follow me. A friend, who rides a lot longer in Thailand, explained it to me in the way that the police want money. Chasing someone and maybe collecting money takes time. Just waiting on the side of the street for riders who stop and collect money from many of them is much easier. Now I am a little older and don't have a sport bike anymore and I don't do that anymore.
  20. It's like asking why Elon Musk created the world like this. He didn't create the world. But he, the person at least exists. And you ask why a not existing thing created something. Don't be surprised about the replies to a senseless question.
  21. "When God created the universe" He didn't. There is no god. Case closed.
