  1. I believe she was up on other additional charges, perhaps even convicted of them.
  2. So that's about 11-12 days, minus the days spent forming committees and debating it?
  3. Sounds like he was extending his working time, not his retirement time.
  4. Didn't they do that like 50-60 times already? Too bad we can't find out the result of those cases. /s
  5. RIP to the 3 killed by friendly fire. The BS excuses only make it worse. But, it's probably the first and only time the IDF has made such a mistake, right?
  6. My first 1-year extension of Non-O was October 16. At immi right now reporting for the December 15 deadline that they stapled in my passport!
  7. Just get a new passport NOW. Mailed mine to embassy in BKK back in June, new and old returned 2 weeks later.
  8. The AQI measures 5 factors. PM2.5 is only 1 of the 5. They could reduce PM2.5 to zero and still have serious air pollution.
  9. I suppose it's OK if she was wearing a short skirt or had big boobs. Just ask the former PM to explain.
  10. USA shows, mostly '50s.

  11. I always verbally say, in Thai, "This is 1000 baht" when paying with a 1000.
  12. I've said this before, but at 0400, fewer "civilians" on the road, more drunks, so better odds of them taking out one of their own kind. Maybe a plus. /s

  14. Misleading. μg is not micron(s). It is a measure of mass. Air particle concentration is not measured in mass units, it is measured as # of particles of whatever per unit volume. μm is the size of the particles in question, 2.5 microns and less being the most damaging. As of 13:19 today, the AQI for BKK is 79. AQI measures 5 different indicators of pollution, not just PM2.5.
  15. Last year, in Phuket, I went to transfer <100,000 THB from my SCB acct to my Amerikan bank acct. My records show a deposit from overseas every month for the last 6 years, over 70 deposits from my social security. I had to fill-out a form asking for their frigging permission!! 2 days later, they denied it.
  16. Thais have given up on the rice competition. If we cannot win, we will no longer play, and then the world can't see what LOSERS we are. As usual, sat on their laurels until they became FAILURES. No way they can develop new, fast-grow strains and get them out to farmers before the next planting season. "...the Department of Rice’s inability to certify walk and chew gum...". Why not? WTF do these clowns do? 2 years ago, the latest data I could find, showed a budget of 89 BILLION BAHT!! From a local source, announcing that MFP were launching an investigation into Rice Dept: "However, on May 9, the department increased its requested budget for the fair in Bangkok to 5 million baht, saying it would extend the event to three days instead of two, Karoonpon said. “The details in the new budget request were also suspicious,” he said. The department raised the cost of organising the exhibition from 400,000 to 1 million baht, and increased the award for rice farmers who had demonstrated extraordinary performances from 100,000 to 500,000 baht, he explained. The complaint also asked Move Forward to investigate the transparency of the selection of event organisers, saying the department had not used the standard e-bidding procedure. Instead, it used a method that took prices submitted by selected contractors. However, only one contractor submitted bids, Karoonpon said. “Based on the selection documents, four organisers were invited to submit bids, but only one actually submitted [them] and won the contract in all three locations. This company has a long record of working with the Rice Department,” Karoonpon explained. “Furthermore, the contract was signed on May 29, suspiciously close to the date of the first event, on June 5, despite the department having months to plan for it,” he added."
