  1. OK then, if they want to talk about double standards, how about Farang price thai price on unmarked goods, dual tier racist pricing in hospitals, dual racist pricing in national parks........and the list goes on.......bloody hypocrites.
  2. That is one of the problems here, they have no shame. R.I.P. to another innocent victim who we all know will never get justice.
  3. Luxury.......We lived in a plastic bag in a septic tank.......
  4. Prasart, near Surin
  5. Massive lightening storm, then rain last night. Started at 6p.m. and went on through the night. Predictably the power went off at about 6.03 p.m. and did not come back until 7:15 this morning. I guess that will be the pattern for the next few weeks.
  6. Also blinded by the eye strain of counting all those brown envelope contents.
  7. Yes, I remember. Cannot see it recovering though if back to these numbers.
  8. At that rate it is not going to stay nice for much longer.
  9. Meanwhile thousands of retirees, who put millions of Baht into the local economies year on year, are treated like dirt on their shoes.
  10. Yet this happened..... I would hazard a guess that inspections and maintenance are not rigorous enough. Maybe they need to raise their standards.
  11. Yes, but this is the land of scam the farang for everything we can grab off them. If they had their way we would see huge bins at the arrivals in the airport where we would deposit our wallets before being herded back onto the plane.
  12. They all come crawling out of the woodwork.......bloody leeches.......
  13. I thought the same thing, like most politicians they appear to be in the pockets of the WEF, WHO, & UN. with their globalist policies. These gimmigrants are nothing more than the invasion of Countries to take over by stealth.
  14. Hypocrite .........Will go back to the land of sand and be a good pious muslim..........until the next trip.
  15. I am assuming by your post that warranties in Aus are good?
  16. Same when I lived in Saudi. The warranties were greatly reduced, I guess due to the high temperatures, large temperature fluctuations, battery life, etc. If a battery lasted three years you were doing well. Even servicing was a lot more frequent at 5,000 km due to dust and sand etc.
  17. Only 2 hours. He needs to come to our village then, we have power outages at least once a week, and never less than three hours. OK investigate the fire, but nothing will happen, as usual, He is just banging the drum to say He did His job.
  18. Exactly what happens to the tax on fuel in England. They levy the fuel tax, then add VAT onto the total, so you are paying tax on your tax. All tax is theft, pure and simple.
  19. I guess we now know at least one of the items that was up for discussion the other day when Teflon Thaksin had His meeting with the P.M.
  20. Good they got this piece of scum off the streets, however, what a shame they do not address the same problem with their own Nationals with the same zeal, and news exposure.
  21. Let us just say it is way North of Bangkok. Two years ago the power was off from 7 am until 8 pm for "preventative maintenance" to improve the system so it did not go out during thunderstorms. Four days later we had a storm.....guess what happened.......When enquiries were made the fault was in another part not upgraded..... total bull. The only improvement is that apart from when the drunks take out the poles it is normally re connected within 2 hours of calling them. Last month, they came out, fixed it, and it lasted 15 minutes before we had to call them again. It is just a part of life here I have got used to.
  22. All well and good IF you have the power in the first place. It is quite common in our area for the power to go off at the slightest provocation, a bird perching on the wire, a spattering of raindrops, a snake in the works, or a drunk Somchai taking out a power pole at 8 at night. Last night the power went off at 10 minutes to nine, and came back on at exactly 6 this morning. I, like most everyone else am looking forward to the rains, but that is tinged with the certainty that the power will be off daily.
  23. I would not hold my breath, they will flip flop back next month.
