The exchange rate does not help. This Country is expensive to holiday in now compared to several years ago. I am not an economist so can someone please explain how the loss of millions upon millions of foreign money coming into the Country from international tourists, ( Once a large part of GDP), can be made up by locals who are only circulating money already here?

Had a good friend in Brunei in the early 80's who died of Weils disease. Left a Wife & 2 young daughters. Horrible way to go, will never forget it. I am with you, whatever works, use it.

Please tell me if I am wrong, but is that not the job of the police? (Or maybe the enterprising B.I.B. have already thought of that and will set up road blocks at the end of the sois at 4A.M. Nice little earner thank you.)

Which probably never received their Christmas bonus last month.....

Maybe a bit off topic, apologies, but I have always found Al-Jazeera news to be a lot more credible than all the other corrupt lying false news people such as BBC, Fox, Sky, etc.

I am of the opinion that it is irrelevant as people here ignore any and all road signage anyway.

No seat belt either. The Missus told me today the driver was new, and this was his first run.

Here we go again, getting ready for the next WHO, WEF control scenario.

Same old knee jerk reaction by incompetent, lazy officials who only think of kickbacks. If they did their job in the first place, then maybe this, and many more hundreds of accidents would not happen.

No mention then of the perceived injustices when thousands of foreigners are charged exorbitant prices, all condoned by a racist xenophobic government.

Sort of a vague relation to this thread as regards no information, Big Joke has gone very, very, quiet now. I wonder what devious web he is weaving.

When the Wife stocked up her shop last month she was told beer had gone up, the following week or so Thai whiskey went up, and She was told then to expect another rise just before New Year. I guess like all Governments it is always slight of hand & misdirection. Put out news about power rates, while at the same time stealthily put a few satang on alcohol a few times.

Yes, but was beer not invented so those women can get laid in the first place.....

Lightweight, he needs a few lessons from the likes of Tony Bliar and company.

It is normal to never hear about the outcome of any incident here.

Any bets on how long it will take before a crackdown on loan sharks is announced. Maybe never as it was only a lowly fruit seller.....no one of any importance like, say, a Chinese tourist for instance.

A bit off topic, apologies, but The Wife yesterday said She would not get anything as one of the new rules apparently is if you have money in a bank you do not qualify. I told her it is all a big con to get peoples financial status, where they are living, whether they are working, what at, and if paying taxes, and if not why not. It is all a plan to get the plebs under control. Also, you will only be able to use the money at certain shops, probably all owned by CP group....

What the F*** are you on about???????? I suggest you get off that wacky backy, or whatever it is you are taking. I never mention in my post that I have a problem with homosexuals. I was referring to the fact that some people, obviously like your good self, that get offended by certain references to how they are named. If in the future you are going to slam a post then I suggest you have the decency to also include the original post that was being answered. Moron.

I think he still holds that honour.

Exactly so Sir, and that is one of the reasons the World is so screwed up, people demanding we bow to their wishes or they get offended. Personally, I would, and do ignore them, let them sit in their little boxes and scream and scream, until they are sick.

Lottery tickets.....

Because the liberal leftie brigade insist that 98% of the population bow to the whims of the remaining 2% who might get offended, God forbid.

Nearly correct, they have a two tier price system.

And those that are not are all Generals.

ethical code in Thai politics Now that is what you call an oxymoron!!!
