Looks like Luddite has a new reputation to forever be wary of on TV.....hope he is proud of it.

1.5 billion for a suitable floodway......imagine if taksin had said...ok I'm going to save Bangkok single handedly with several billion of my 77 billion......who would still be PM now ??....but no, the great visionary, the astute businessman decided to hoard it all and cheat the nation......ya gets what ya deserve.

And all the mud dug up could have been used to build that island he wanted to sell to us foreigners...Taksinsville.

.

I would like to drive there...so nice to know the info about crossing the border and driving inside Cambo, heard various stories about scams and cops everywhere operating them.

Anni....I know a guy holed up in a high floor condo...all alone....plenty of food and water stored up, beer and whiskey too....kahlua and plenty of milk in the freezer......corn chips, dip and chocolate and frozen strawberries by the hundreds......if you interested.....let me know.

7/11 was out of sausages and toasted sangers today in khao yai.....no trucks from bkk.

There would be nothing wrong with, IF she was actually crying ... which she isn't.

She broke a nail..

Are you English Robblok ??

I am high and dry where I live....I hope Bkk does not flood...except for the Command centre at Don Muang.....that would be sweet.

I mean driving to AW...into Cambo.....my pickup has 110,000 after 2.5 years.

Is it worth driving yourself...or the hassle just not worth it ?

Quick, bring back Thaksin he will make the waters recede.

Part more likely..

Wow he looks a bit worse for wear....

The last person to leave Bangkok has been asked to turn the floodlights off...

No need to turn nasty over pies......I suggested a pie fight....how about a mushy peas wrestling contest ?

Only a fool would buy property in Thailand (low ROI) or make investments in the country (I'm talking about individuals here, not big Japanese corporations) since you aren't actually permitted to take money out of Thailand. Considering that the returns on the Thai property market are so low anyway compared to property in developed countries, why buy? You cannot legally buy any more than a condominium anyway. I am currently renting a house that I could live in for 88 years for the same amount of money it would cost to buy it, based on the price my neighbour's house down the street has just sold for. (BTW, I live in Phuket.) Rental prices in Thailand are so low, why buy even if you could? Your return on investment will be much higher if you buy property in your home country and lease it out. If a foreigner has "bought" a house in Thailand, he means his wife has bought it.

It all depends on your way of thinking FB....I have bought 3 blocks of land here and made money thus far on all....one in particular has out performed any overseas investment I have ever had.

So Khao Yai to Pattaya is ok ?

Whats the giveaway then CH....??

The bottled beetroot is excellent in salad and burgers.....Staffords have it.....did I emntion the pasties ??

this thread useless without pics...

Helicopters are next in line to help....apparently.

Oh....and then.....there is a plan afoot to lift all of the boats out of the river to reduce the level....

Even wind direction will make more difference than putting boats in the river.

Headlines tomorrow.....'1000 FANS FOR THE CHAO PHRAYA'..........then the next day.........'50 people eletrocuted on chao phraya'

I disagree....there is valid argument for these kids of shows as long as they are done respectfully and without cruelty and the animals involved are not captured from the wild.

"Believe it or not! "

Ripley got it first....believe it or not.

Can someone tell me what the weather will be doing and what will be flooded and underwater in 10 days please ??

'my toybox'

It should work when combined with this info from the Nation......"In the late afternoon, the governor organised a religious ceremony and asked holy beings to push water into other areas."
