  1. I don't see what's funny about it. How would you feel if in her position?
  2. They have certainly got their work cut out tracking all the objucts orbiting the Earth:
  3. I'm offended that they keep coming up with this crap.
  4. Bulls**t. It depends where you live in Thailand and how exposed you are to the language. Many people that live in the holiday hotspots, where most Thais speak English, can go without almost never being exposed to significant levels of Thai. Therefore never picking it up, or needing it. The only way they will speak it is by taking Thai language lessons. Even half Thai children, if going to English speaking international schools, and speaking only English at home (if the Thai parent doesn't make the effort to speak only Thai to them) will have weak Thai language skills. It doesn't make them dumb. Get dumped in the back of beyond, where hardly anyone speaks English, (or whatever your native language is), and you will be forced to pick up some Thai or local dialect very quickly by necessity.
  5. Buttered sourdough with Heinz baked beans, or scrambled egg, sometimes smoked salmon, avocado and poached egg, grilled strong Cheddar Cheese. Occasionally marmalade with orange peel in it. This one can be served on toast, but I prefer it on fresh crusty bread: Instead of butter, spread with olive oil, then finely chopped raw garlic, sliced tomatoes, sprinkle with salt.
  6. Taking Greenland by military force? Negates any American complaints about China and the Paracel Islands or Taiwan. I wonder how many pardons Trump is going to have to issue when his time as President is up.
  7. You are presuming the government or the capitalist boss will want to pay the now redundant worker anything at all. There will of course be mass worldwide unemployment, so I suppose they will have to pay something to prevent said workers rising up. Or send in the robot police and soldiers. The Terminator might still yet come true. Only recently I was telling our daughter that nowadays, before going to university, students should take into consideration which jobs are less likely to be taken away by AI.
  8. I don't know how old these prices are, but this might give you an idea. https://www.rome2rio.com/s/Don-Muang-Airport-DMK/Korat-Royal-Thai-Air-Force-Base I would suggest making a prior booking with a taxi service rather than just a waiting taxi at the airport.
  9. We don't want your chemical laden food Donald. Please keep it in your US bubble to feed your worker ants. They will need the energy for the long hours they work with hardly any holidays, no holiday pay, no sick pay, no maternity leave, or workers rights.
  10. I agree. I already stated before that I was wrong, and that it was Thai law enforcement that followed him and made the arrest.
  11. Doesn't say whether he was either arrested, or restrained and continues to receive treatment, or whatever happened to him. He might even be back on the street and a danger to others. Come on reporter! let us know.
  12. As requested. Below is the link to the case I posted yesterday, but if you look two posts down from my original post, you will see that I stated I was wrong about the UK police being involved in the actual arrest.
  13. Likely that if she is happy, the OP get's a quieter, easier life than if she wasn't.
  14. Seems like I was wrong. The UK Police just notified the Thai Police and they carried out the operation. It was even posted here on AN: https://aseannow.com/topic/982244-uk-drugs-baron-arrested-by-thai-cops-on-samui/
  15. I think they can come here to work along Thai Police to arrest international fugitives if they have information on where they might be. I recall a case in Samui not too long ago where someone on the run from the UK was hiding out on Koh Matsum, a small one hotel island off the south west of Samui. His family all flew out to Samui to holiday with him. The UK and Thai police just followed the family from Samui Airport to Matsum and arrested the guy.
  16. So I guess it depends on the price (number of lives, collateral damage etc.) the US government is willing to pay to achieve their goals. In a country where almost anyone can obtain a gun, legally or otherwise, the number of lives lost over this is likely to be much higher than if something similar was carried out in say EU or UK.
  17. I must admit, I know nothing of RPN, but what I have been reading about and watching on Youtube videos recently is what is known as Singapore Maths. This seems to teach young school children to be able rapid solve many + - x / questions in their heads. Below is an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXnp__Ni8e0
  18. As a Brit, I certainly wouldn't have voted for that.
  19. But as happened yesterday, it might not always be the illegals that get hurt or killed.
  20. I had a similar problem with my Smeg oven. There seems to be a shortage of electronic parts after Covid. Have you tried calling Stiebel Eltron and trying to order the part yourself? STIEBEL ELTRON Asia Ltd. 469 Moo 2 Tambol Klong-Jik Amphur Bangpa-In Ayutthaya 13160 https://www.stiebel-eltron.com/content/dam/ste/de/evo/home/unternehmen/standorte/phone.png+66 035 905 000 https://www.stiebel-eltron.com/content/dam/ste/de/evo/home/unternehmen/standorte/fax.png+66 035 221 185 88 https://www.stiebel-eltron.com/content/dam/ste/de/evo/home/unternehmen/standorte/[email protected] https://www.stiebel-eltron.com/content/dam/ste/de/evo/home/unternehmen/standorte/web.pnghttps://www.stiebel-eltron.co.th
  21. Thailand will soon have to start building more prisons.
  22. What happens when these other countries retaliate with counter tariffs? It's not as if Europe wants US chlorine washed chicken or additive laced foods and drinks, many of which are banned because of their content.
  23. I was going to explain why Thaksin deserves his medical record privacy, but the way immigration just dishes out our personal data for other to see or collect on the back of reused bits of paper makes me think again.
  24. I wonder what the death toll might be by the end of these operations. Those officials will go in armed, and some of those being sought might not go quietly.
