Well, a 747 isn't a balloon which will float across the ocean without power. So deduct about three million for the round trip fuel costs. That and the cost of chartering the aircraft.

 

It was still a lavish trip by Thai standards though.

 

 

Would have loved to have been one of the passengers on this tour.....

1 km south Futurepark

1 km north of Zeer Hub

The ramp is a few hundred metres south of Future Park.

When you come off the Nakhon Nayok road heading to Bangkok,  you go up the ramp onto the elevated expressway.

It's plausible although unlikely.

 

Raises the questions why supply passports to people and why tell people what you are up to? 

 

Also, they were actively recruiting people on Soi 22 to partake in their extortion scams, which doesn't led itself to this theory.

 

I believe they were extortionists with a bar stool CIA/Spec Ops fantasy. 

A few members in our club who were frequenters of Soi 22 were drug runners, thief's & professional bull shit artists;  so will be interesting to see if their names eventually appear in any reports / findings... lol

A true legend...

Thais are adept at 'keying' vehicles: firmly dragging a key along the exterior of a vehicle.  They do it to motorbike seats also, though usually with a sharper object.  I've had it happen a half dozen times in Thailand, when parked legally.  The worst was when the left front wheel came off my p.u. truck.  Luckily I was driving slowly, and no-one or property was hurt.  I then noticed lug nuts in the back of my p.u., and recalled that I had parked for 11 minutes near (but not among) a tuk tuk hang-out.  I was probably 50 meters from where tuk tuk's line up, but that was apparently too close for one of them.  Of course, no words were exchanged before or after the incident.  Easier to just vandalize a vehicle, and not bother asking a farang to move.   It's lucky I wasn't driving 70 km/hr on a busy hwy when the wheel came off.

A___ holes...

I got a flat tire due to the same reason.  I had no idea it was a "protected" space. 

Had the same thing happen in HH last year by a taxi driver, when i parked in a vacant spot in the main street for a couple of minutes..!!! 

There's a few shops beside / behind Lotus that sell seeds. Just need to check them all out to see what they have to offer.

Why publicise this sort of information in the media? Nothing like telling a suspect that you're on to him and you know where he's hiding out. Sure - he'll politely wait there until you come for him. Too many brown shirts wanting their 15 minutes of fame...

I'm sure the suspect is a frequent user of TV & will be keeping up to date with all the new postings of his whereabouts, so he can avoid being caught..!!! lol

don`t forget to close the door on the way out !

Obviously the person who closed the door didn't do it properly.....

Hmmmm - Assuming (dangerous word here) they are talking about the flyover coming from the northbound lanes of Rangsit - has anyone thought of erecting a temporary roadway/flover to get into the airport or must all traffic go several KM's past the airport, find a U-Turn and return. Doubt any of the planners thought of that..

You still have 2 other options.

1. Use the elevated expressway exit into DM. They will still probably charge u.

2. Use the entry bridge to the old domestic terminal & just continue straight on to the Terminals.

Would imagine the budget airlines and in particular the new owner of Air Asia world be thrilled to hear the Immigration Department advising not to use Don Muang?

Maybe someone should mention it. Might be more effective than 1111.

Don't worry about K Vichai too much, Kingpower will get you at Swampy..!!! lol

Somebody catch me up. Where in these 7 pages did the big American enter the story?

You had to read the initial article a few days ago that Steve was knocked out by a large American

Need to find the large American and ask a few questions..???

Not looking good at the moment

I am with Kbank and they notify me by text message as soon as there is a transaction on my card ..great service ..

How much does Kasikorn Bank charge for this SMS service?

we had 2 suitcases ruined by the new airline, both had the handles broken off them. When we confronted the sales point with it they promptly closed the office and walked out. The head office refused to do anything about it when we contacted them as they said we had no proof they did it, they are cheap and do not have any customer service or care for what they do, wouldnt be surprised if this is from the same people.

You forgot to SMILE.....

Just another day in THE most dangerous country to drive in in the WORLD,forget the bogus statistics that it is second or third,it is FIRST.

There are more dangerous places to drive than Thailand despite what statistics say

Name one.

I haven't driven in every country in the world obviously, but have done in a lot. Some countries the driving is very bad but not aggresive. Others are so snarled up, and the roads so bad that you can't get a decent speed up so not so many bad accidents. Thailand is by FAR the most dangerous: fast cars, reasonable roads, face, complete disregard for other people and blatant flouting of the the traffic laws.

Have you lived or driven in EGYPT..!!!

I thought librarians were people that looked after books....and generally nice people.

This is a shock to me that librarians would do the old dirty money that can be cleaned trick.....

If not, you better go to Specsavers so you can recognise the word Liberia. Lol

Sorry,my friend,but you are being set up.I've lived here a long time,and i was very green in the beginning,since then i have become a little less trusting,a lot more cynical and quite suspicious.

This girl bears all the trade marks of a hit and run.You love her after 6 month's,she knows this.You have some money,she knows this.Thai girls can be quite wicked and can play the slow wait game. It all begins with tears and excuses about family.Also the other poster was quite right.How do you know that she hasnt got 3/4 boyfriends that she is conning along side you.

How long have you been here? i ask because there are lots of guys who think they are Thai wise,but they get caught.You say she has never given you doubt,this is just another version of 'Oh but she's not the same a other thai girls' I have known guys who have married and even then,after 6/7 years,the girl just appears at the front door with her case telling you she's leaving.

My friend had an 23,000,000 baht house,a lake,a 30 metre swimming pool,and his servants lived in accommodation in the grounds.

married 10 years,wife just ups and goes,next,the mafia are on him for 18,000,000 she owes them.Had to sell his house for 10,000,000 to pay her debts.Card's,booze etc.

There are a lot of guys who will tell you different,they are not all the same,and they are right.but 6 months is too soon to be doing what you are doing.

Have you been up the village yet,to meet the family.?? That will be interesting,do you speak any Thai or Laos?

Just be careful my brother,or you will be in for a world of hurt.

Didn't you read the headline..

They are in USA..!!!

It has been reported that the son has left Thailand, leaving his parents in the country (mother in hospital). There is only one reason

why one would "abandon" family members in such a sitiuation.

Yes, tell us please. It seems you are omniscient.

If you have read other comments / forums you will find that the son works / lives in Singapore so i presume he had to return to work.

From a local Hua Hin forum:

"6 Thai men in custody, CCTV footage has FINALLY been submitted to the court.

All these men known by H.H. Mib..all from 'powerful' Hua Hin families...

..I will not say to much here, but the handling of this case has many similarities to what you've all heard about

regarding the Kho Tao investigations..."

Says it all...

And the Thailand Tigers have a aussie rules footy match in Kanchanaburi, the closest Saturday to ANZAC DAY with some of the Diggers still attending

RIP to the deceased.

Very close to where I live

There was that many people viewing the accident when i drove past, that you couldn't see what had happened.

Have fallen asleep behind the wheel myself, but luckily I hit a 6 inch light pole and 2 out of 3 were wearing seat belts but nobody seriously injured. Chalk dee
