Why do you think he got the VIP treatment? The rich were not going to punish one of their own. He is one of the elites now, so he is relatively screwed when it comes t lower-class people.

going to be interesting to see how Thaksin explailns that while he is part of the rich elite he is still a man or family of the people

Thaksin is going to get hammered along with the PTP if the courts rule that MFP is trying to get rid of the monarchy. The streets will be full of people, and instead of them asking for military rule or PTP it is going to be a sea of ORANGE. Personally, I think the courts were stupid to take it. They could have simply said that they felt the amending of Art 112, while not possible, would not affect the people's love of the King and let it go. Now Pita and all the members of MFP are going to become martyrs. I think Thaksin realizes that this could be a bigger protest than anything the PTP or TRT ever had and is worried.

If PTP is reformist, then consider that it was PTP and Thaksin that went through the BS that they are putting MFP through with the political games and BS of shutting down the party because they don't like it. PTP should be supporting the MFP to stay as a partynot utting them through the same painthat they went through. PTP is no different than the Democrat party, the PPP BJT or NTP. They are all in power to make money and help themselves and keep Thaialnd as it was 30 years ago.

But you did not answer my questions.

https://www.siam-legal.com/ Have used them for legal stuff and found them good big firm so lots of specialised lawyers

Doesn't CM have it's own version of the old Pamntip where it is almost all computer sales.

If you live in BKK I would suggest taking a trip to Rangsit ZEER lots of computer cses and friendly people to help you. Bring the board and tehy will set it up for you. If not check out JIB or adviceit.

The OP is not clear where he is now. Is he presently in Thailand looking to go to Laos? Is he in a Western country flying directly to Laos? This, I think, is the confusion. If he is presently in Thailand and Overstay, he is going to get nailed by immigration at the airport or border for being overstayed. I think then he may have an issue with paying fine. Border runners may be able to say what would happen at the border crossing into Laos. Laos immigration, if they see that you have been blacklisted for Thailand, may ask questions and, based on that, can refuse entry. I am sure the Canadian that just got nailed for being 2955 would probably get refused, and he has a history. BUT it would be up to the border immigration agent.

I see all these outfits selling these for lack of a better term: Electric scooters, trike and trucks. Does anyone have one of these and how much it costs in electricity?

Might get me thinking of going to Pakistan I think that will be far enough away and still have the warm weather

Usually, it is one day however with the tourists expect it to be Saturday and Sunday. In Patts, for some reason they have added 19 April Friday mat be a wild card depending on where you are IE silom Beach Road walking street Khosan

They did these on the cheap and quickly I think that they are proving that Thailand does not have a company that can do it.

Thaksin is getting the old band together. Get ready for the band to try to revive PTP under paetong with daddy beside her

And in her next breath she complained that small registered hotel need assistance.

This is what happens when you target party tourism. When the beaches and hotels have very little for families and are more geared to young party types. The difference between Pats and Phuket is simple. Pattaya caters to the old guy that wants to go to the bar have a few get his ashes hauled and go home. Phuket is the hip party place where the young people party all night. Phuket had a great chance to reinvent itself and decided that it liked the greed, raunchy lifestyle and high-spending party lifestyle clients. Too bad, actually (looking at a different post God may have tried to send a message but it was not received)

I can tell you that GF and I have been together for several years, and neither of us has lost interest. The other side of things is that having a GF or a couple, if you have t hve variety, is not an issue. Just look at the websites. Lol plenty of looking for a handsome farang. Even young ones that want a sugar daddy.

The belief is that we were created. No matter how there had to be something that did it. I have read the bible and debted teh koran with Whether you believe in god, Allah or any Hindu god, there is one thing that we need to understand. All of these books/religions, along with Buddhism, promote peace, ethics and love thy neighbour. The challenge we have is that man was created with one big flaw. He wants more. It is interesting that those people who truly believe in the TRUE life understand that they must love each other. The challenge is that man has and always will be tempted, even from the beginning. The bible, koran, Talmud and Bhudda's teachings are all guidelines for living a true and peaceful world. Imagine if the priests and monks all lived according to their oaths. From a Thai perspective King Rama IX extolled the virtues and created a plan for all Thais to live a good life under a Sufficiecnncy Economy philosophy. Imagine if the people had or did establish it. Why don't they? GREED As to why God allows these things to happen, consider this. There have been more and more hurricanes. Tsnumai's and weather-related issues in the world. Who is to say that they have not been a message from a higher power?

Hollywood has become a CGI AI world, where before it was real-life stunts, and how far you could go is now how much CGI can you do. The other issue is that most of the people have left Hollywood, and those that are left behind are bereft of fresh ideas because most of it has already been done.

10-15% is reasonable if you get really good service. Personally, I tip 100 baht when I go for a massage. My ex explained to me when I got here that they only get a small percentage, if that or a minimum wage for their work. I find that tipping for good service helps all the people working in the business, as most businesses share tips.

Bob finally got them to give him his own seat at Hooters LOL Hear he is curling and pressing a bottle in each hand

HRDSHT add and A and an I

There may not be many spots left, but the beaches are great, and if you stay away from the village, you should only get wet from the sea. I would get my assets on agoda right away. There are only a few good rooms left

Wonder how many now get a real phone number?

Like I said it was not going to be popular LOL There is nothing stopping them from having breakfast at home in their apartment. The guys i see sitting at the bars watching people are not eating LOL
