But they have to match it to an address.

Thanks! Going some way to clearing up the usual level of bs surrounding Hakparn. All misreporting should be identified and the journalists dealt with. And all the haters were cheering!

It always surprises me how the police are able to identify a suspect from a video clip. Who identifies him? Who knows him? How did they trace him?

Without any insight as to cause or reason why is this a "news" item other than voyeurism ?

And before any respond to my comment  stop at least long enough to consider all possibilities before launching into the usual speculative bs  !

"Seemingly a sad attempt at suicide." I'd call that speculative bs.

Hey, these 23 guys are really smart, maybe they can explain some things to all the dummies that voted for Trump, because:

 

They are not smart to understand how millions of illegals being dumped in their communities, that drive down wages, drive up housing costs, and put significant, disproportionate pressure on schools, hospitals and public servicers is actually good a thing. 

 

And not only are they stupid, but they are bigots. As it turns out, they do not like men strutting around in their daughters' showers. 

 

They do not understand that it is truly fair for men to compete in women's sports, and for male rapists that claim they are women to be locked in the same cell with a biological woman, or why they should pay taxes to provide a violent criminal to have a sex-change operation. 

 

You try to explain to them how much worse protestors rioting for a few hours in the Capitol, is much, much worse than months or rioting, burning and looting. They just don’t get it. 

 

Neither do they understand how a 78-year-old man, that was a popular celebrity playboy for thirty years, that is a world famous successful real estate developer, and that was the star of a long running, popular (albeit lame) TV show, and was a successful President,  is all the sudden on the FBI's most wanted list for crimes no can explain, and no one else has ever been charged with, much less convicted of. Things like this confuse them. 

Again, these people are stupid. Only high IQ leftists, with years of university education and multiple advanced degrees like these 23 guys are smart enough to understand these things, and if they would just explain it to these dummies, maybe they will vote for a Democrat next time. 
 

Just print another trillion dollars to bail your incredibly stupid country out yet again.

Before becoming a landlord, maybe there should be a licensing procedure and a training program so you know the basics of letting law, and how to read and write a tenancy agreement. Licence renewable every 3 years. This guy should have been thrown out after a month or so of non payment of rent. Surely she has a copy of his id card?

Picture courtesy: Facebook Yingluck Shinawatra

 

The possibility of former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra returning to Thailand has been highlighted by Justice Minister Thawee Sodsong, following comments by her brother, Thaksin Shinawatra, also a former Prime Minister. Thaksin mentioned in an interview that Yingluck is planning to return for next year's Songkran festival.

 

Minister Thawee clarified that while there has been no formal notification regarding Yingluck's return, any such move would need to adhere strictly to legal procedures. He pointed out that the Department of Corrections can only take action once a detention warrant has been issued by the court.

 

Upon receiving the necessary warrant, the department will ensure that all processes follow the law. According to current correctional regulations, any female inmate, including Yingluck, must serve her sentence in a central correctional facility. Minister Thawee reassured that there would be no deviation from the established legal framework.

 

Questions have been raised regarding whether Yingluck's return would mirror that of her brother Thaksin, who returned to Thailand under controversial circumstances and sought a royal pardon. Thawee, however, was not the justice minister during Thaksin's return and emphasised that Yingluck's case would have to comply entirely with correctional law.

When further queried about her return, Thawee noted, "There is no specific model; everything must follow the law."

 

Thaksin had previously given an interview to Nikkei Asia on 14th November while in Udon Thani for provincial-administrative-organisation election campaigning. He expressed optimism about his sister's return, despite her self-exile following a 2017 conviction concerning a rice-pledging scheme.

 

Thaksin stated, “I don’t think there’s any issue preventing her from coming home. I believe she might return slightly before [Songkran], depending on timing and opportunity.”

 

This development places Yingluck's future actions under the spotlight, with legal adherence being critical to any plans for her to resettle in Thailand. The situation continues to unfold, with many watching to see how these legal processes will be navigated in the coming months, reported The Nation.

Congratulations -- this attitude and the constant harping on identity politics was a huge factor in Trump's win. Thanks, please keep it up!

 

And yes, that commie pinko Tim Walz deservedly received lots of negative attention. But he wasn't the top of the ticket, Harris was, so she naturally received the lion's share of the criticism. 

You're doomed.

The farang are usually lonely and what is the word I'm looking for ??....where they NEED someone to look after them... similar to a MOTHER figure 

That's why a lot of Australian.men go to the Philippines as Filipina women are MOTHER figures 

They are looking for someone who pretends to CARE

Philippines is popular to get a MOTHER type 

And let's face it ... FILIPINA women are much BETTER in caring than Thai women 

You speak from experience I guess?

I went to a friend of a friend’s wedding on Friday night in Pattaya. 
 

Nearly everyone attending was a farang with a thai wife or girlfriend. A few kids.

 

Everyone was reasonably well behaved until the booze started flowing when things started getting messy and the women’s true colors started showing up. 
 

It was fairly obvious that nearly every one of them was a former bar girl, most were tattooed, they got sleazier and louder as the night wore on both verbally and physically.

 

It was a fun night. 
 

I was thinking about half of them were not showing much or any respect to their husbands. It appeared the more drunk some of them got the less they liked their husbands and were not even pretending to like them.
Almost like they were trying to start trouble with their husbands/boyfriends which put me on edge a bit. Very touchy feely.
 

They seem to have chosen a life where they have to spend most of their time with men they don’t really like. An underlying tension that comes out when they are drunk?

 

Why is it that so many prostitutes in Thailand marry their customers? There are prostitutes in probably every country in the world, but I have never seen this before, it seems a uniquely Thai phenomenon. There must be thousands of them. 
 

Why is it so different in Thailand?

 

ps. The dowry was 200,000 and some gold. The wife was a stunner. An oldie, but a goodie. Nice big set of bolt-ons.
 

 

 

 

You might ask why do so many men marry a prostitute? I'm woke so I don't like the word. Isn't there a better one? Sex worker? Isn't that a better description? The p word has all sorts of ugly connotations.

So which article is the corrected version? They both have the same time stamp.

So you think that discrimination is selective, some should be addressed and some not.

This thread is due to discrimination, and will continue until people like you open their eyes and see the discrimination that has been perpretrated by the government over the years.

 

What discrimination? Against pensioners? Sure, some might be gay. Some trans. Some lesbian. Some some other identifier. That isn't the topic. There are quite legitimate ways of keeping your pension unfrozen while living abroad. Read the list of reciprocating countries. So sorry Thailand isn't on it. I've posted the link 100 times. Still you moan.

No, it's just nonsensical gratuitous rubbish. Calling somebody "the biggest demeaning insult in political history", that is. The left? You insist in your American political naiveté in calling Democrats "the left". It's just a meaningless blanket term. So the Republicans are the "right" right? There's no crossover. No discourse. No conversation. Good. American Civil War Take II. Just as Putin planned it.

Which of course you refuse to do as it would mean you actually had a purpose in supporting Kyiv, which most Republicans seem to deny.

have dwp ever punished unfrozen pensioner caught?
Copilot
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has not explicitly “punished” unfrozen pensioners caught living in frozen countries. However, the policy of frozen state pensions has been a contentious issue for many British pensioners living abroad.....and   

 

 

a OAP lives permanently in frozen country and receives unfrozen pension   is that fraud?
Copilot
If an OAP (Old Age Pensioner) resides permanently in a frozen country and receives an unfrozen pension, it is not fraudulent. No action taken Let me explain:
 

Please do!

It beggars belief that the authorities in the UK authorise a housing benefit claim for a person not in the UK. I can't get my head around how it is possible. Shouldn't there be some sort of rent book.

A rent book? What does that prove? You can buy them in any stationers. I guess you don't understand the benefits system in the UK.

I haven't claimed any benefits in 20 years. I'm just batting these responses back.

 Using logic, the only people in the USA who will be worse off under DJT mk2 are illegal immigrants. And even thry czn probably, deep down, understand a country needs borders and a single tier judicial system.

That's not using logic! There might be millions of US citizens worse off. Why just mention illegal immigrants? If you find the prices of a million imported goods doubles because of Trump's tariffs, you don't have to be an illegal immigrant to suffer the consequences.
