They will just continue the trend: Suvarnabhumi Airport has already the world's tallest free-standing control tower. Suvarnabhumi Airport - Wikipedia Maybe they can build the new tower right next to that. I am sure the whole world would be impressed.

Real cars make vroom vroom, every toddler knows that! 😉

And I thought those smoothie shop owners are at least as smart as investment bankers. Any investment can only be profitable. Or not?

The bar still exists. And because it is so big half the bar is always empty. Someone had the stupid idea to combine two big bars to create a super big size bar...

Elon, are you so desperate that you are now in a Thai forum to sell your cars?

There should be no government support for BEVs, charging stations, end of life of real cars, etc. If people want to buy EVs, ok, let them buy them. And if people choose real cars, that is also fine. Up to each individual. Greata can walk.

In principle the idea is good. But Germany is cold, and has mostly civilized people. How about dropping her somewhere in Africa and then she can walk home...

I easily believe the 2nd part. But it seems Thais are smart enough to avoid those creatures.

Do we know what girls really think? It seems some girls love the fact that they have a (relative) rich boyfriend or husband, and they can show the big sister or the family or their friends something like: Look at me, I am young, and I don't work, and I live in luxury, and he does whatever I want. You work and don't live in luxury. Look at me! I think some people think a young girl would prefer to live with a young guy who has just about enough money to survive. But obviously they love each other so much and life is so romantic. Really? I am sure some girls like that, but I also understand that others think differently. And from a perspective from someone rich (i.e. the typical western feminists) it's easy to romanticize the love of poor people.

And 10 years in the future she would be 26. And 20 years ago she would not have been born. What kind of logic is that? Many 16 year old girls have sex. And it seems she was online, and it seems she "convinced" him to marry her. So, it seems she wasn't the innocent child. And according to the story the parents agreed to the marriage.

I was surprised the other day in Nana. In one of the big bars one customer thought he is generous, and he gave several dancers each a 20B note. I would have expected that they ignore him best case or throw the notes back at him. But no, they excepted the notes and smiled. Amazing.

And then there are those special lady drinks like maybe whisky coke. Some bars and some ladies interpret that as one glass of whisky and one glass of coke. And then you pay for two lady drinks. A friend told me recently a girl asked him for a coke. He agreed and she received a tall glass of coke. And then he had a look at the bill: 2 coke, total about 400B. He asked and they explained to him that was a double coke. Luckily that happens not in all bars. But unfortunately, it happens at all.

I am serious. That was a few years before Covid and a very large bar.

If she was sitting across from you then you did it wrong.

The ladies make money from those drinks. Some time ago they received about 50% of the sales price. I don't know if that changed over time. And, to be fair, the rent from some bars/areas is outrageous. I know from one bar in Nana that they paid 40,000B rent. Per day! You have to sell a lot of drinks to make money in such a situation.

Who has those stupid ideas? Next: We will launch rockets to the moon from the middle of Bangkok.

I give up with this thread. My intention was just to say: Don't believe you know what happened from a 10s video. But it seems now people think I defend guys who beat up women. No, I don't defend guys in general. And I also don't defend women in general. At least for me there is no rule that whatever women do, guys can never ever react with violence. If you want that rule, then how about men can never ever react with violence against anybody, including other men? Let us all live together in peace, happily ever after. Yeah, sure.

Good. Continue with your studies.

That's the theory. It seems to me in Thailand there are often more direct "solutions". It's not that my lawyer calls your lawyer, and we go to court and years later someone will be punished. Here it is more often: Action, reaction, done.

What I wrote above should be clear. From a 10s video we don't know what actually happened. I would love to hear his version of what happened before that video and why he did what he did. Maybe what he did was wrong. Probably what he did was wrong. But maybe he had a good reason. I saw enough lying women. And I saw very aggressive fighting women. Looking at the press, lots of women ruined the lives of innocent men. Not all women are innocent - that is my point.

I understand retaliation. Many women want to be equals everywhere. Let them be equal everywhere.

If you plan to use the tablet while traveling, then yes. Otherwise WIFI is basically available everywhere. I have a tablet without SIM, I only use that tablet at home. My gf has a tablet with SIM, because there is no WIFI if she visits her father up country. I think her tablet was about 2000B more expensive.

So, you did use your imagination. Good, you understand the concept.

Use your imagination. There are too many news stories where we see a short video and read a story from one side what supposedly happened. Most of the time we never hear again more about what happened. But sometimes we hear more information, and from another perspective, and suddenly things look very different. I don't try to imagine what may have happened in the case above or other cases. It is pretty obvious that something must have happened previously. What's the point of guessing? We will likely never hear the whole truth. Let the police investigate what happened and how to handle the situation. That is their job.
