  1. The thing that's interesting is some places they sell liquor at 10 am. In others they wait untill 5. Instead of new laws why try a novel idea enforce the ones on the books
  2. The easiest way to educate is for police to enforce the rules. The basr place to start is outside schools. Limit the number of kids on a bike. Mandate helmets and if jids aren't wearing them confiscate the bike until they show up with a helmet and purchase receipt That is where you will make the most impact pulling somchai over slapping his wrist is not going to make a point.
  3. The challenge ynot that it wit increase prices but that more of the empty units will get purchased. Companies in lam lukka are lowering their prices to try to sell. Then I go to phrom pong and see a new building advertising 70 mil
  4. Yeah, I am drastic, but again, they are selling illegal products and breaking the law. I thought Kartom was an illegal drug. It isn't, but again, if they impound the vehicles, it will make people think before they break the law further.
  5. No but if you want to stop the problem then you need to do it. In any other country if you break the law with drugs or illegal activity you are arrested and anything that is thought to be a product of the crime can be confiscated. If these people are selling illegal substances then they are breaking the drug law. Therefore, anything they have at the time and any equipment or product that they are using at the time of arrest is subject to seizure by the courts and police. Therefore it is not russia Hell do it there and you are never seen again. What I am saying is that there are laws. If you start enforcing them, along with plains-clothes patrols like they do to check out the bars for underage talent, then you will clean it up. If you slap them on the bum lightly and say bad boy or girl, that is not going to stop them. They will just add the fine to the cost of doing business and will be right back out there. NANA is getting back to it's old self with the people setting up bars on stools.
  6. Not just confiscate but destroy all products, including the stalls. The vans and trucks are the big thing. Confiscating them, impound them, and just sending the vehicles to be destroyed will slow them down. Lock the offenders up for the night and fine them as well as confiscating htemoney they have with them so they cannot use that to pay the fine
  7. Are they not having a flooding issue with a city that sinking. Am I missing something
  8. 100 baht. Talk about not thinking it through
  9. To bad there wasn't an elite candidate. Thaksin seems to be riding the rail with a leg on either side. He better be careful or he might get a splinter in a very bad spot
  10. The only way that they can curb this is to have unanounced spot checks and having people go in and check every once in awhile.
  11. actually it is impossible if they spell the name the same and use the same characters. Then again maybe he has a split personality. One is the old broad that wants to get out and the other is the old guy that wants to get laid. Maybe they should see a shrink so he can introduce them to themselves.
  12. Even if you can do the exchange I think unless yo do it at the main bank for whichever you choose you will have to come back to the bank as I doubt many banks holw SA currency. Againa s you have been advised get USD and then exchange it when you get there JUust exchange enough at the airport to pay for what yo need do not do your exchange there.
  13. T I T they arent even outlining the area. Do they expect people to drive to morchit and get on an already overcrowded train. There is a way to cut downit is called raise the price of parking.
  14. I use 3-4 star hotels and find that the service I get is just as good as the 5 star. The difference in a lot of cases is simply the name on the marquee. The buildings are newer shiner and have nicer amenities. I think the diferenceis that the 5 star is that they are international brands. It is just like macDonalds and other international brands. People know what they get in their home country and want to be quaranteed a great stay. As to bookings 3 star hotels need to be advertising to Thai's and outlining nicer things. A lot of people just want to kmow that they are going to get an enjoyable time. Then again you have Thai hotels that renovate and because they do jack the prices (thin Montien in Silom)
  15. How the hell do you collect is what I can't figure out. Somchai drives to Silom to drop and pick up his daughters at St josephs. Somchai gets a bill in the mail that says he has to play and throws it away or cannot pay the extra fee. How are they going to dtop Somchai. Also what percentage of teh fee colleted is gong to innfras\tcture adn how much to pockets.
  16. School girls at the age of 14 in thailand are having sex. If they aren't nice to the boyfriend he will ddrop themand go to a diferene girl. Peer pressure is huge.
  17. But the key was that gas was cheaper heating your home was cheaper and people were finding good jobs in the market producing NG and other fuels. No matter what life was better under TRUMP and under Biden it got worse. The fact that Trump had a plan and could artivulate it while Kamala kept talking about the story and her upbringing. never articualting a plan to reverse the economy to reverse high immigration to stop cities fromspending money on illegal refuges and start spending it on the people that were American and living there. Along with saying that everything they did was great and there was nothign she would change killed her. Now we hear in themedial that she went through 1 billion Plus Pqaid ce3lebrities to appear with her and left teh DNC in debt. Is that a person that you want looking after your wallet. To me it is like giving the GF'wife 100,000 baht to buy thngs and her coeming home telling you that she got almost everything but she hgad to use the d\credit card for a further 30K and oh yeah I was not able to get everything done so can yougive me moremoney.
  18. no they don't most hjave girls that shuffle their feet in place
  19. The place is a zoo. Last year the beaches were full and there was no room at the bars unless you had reserved a spot. The fireworks were good but like I said going to a bar and getting srink was something else. Also there were stalls set up all along Beach road. The only goodhting was that beach road was closed to vehicles. This year thinking about staying in BKK
  20. Agreed but with her keeping hermoth shut about change is came down to one questiopn. Were you better off when TRUMP was President with Pence or are you better off now with Biden adn Kamala. With most people thinking the country is going in the wrong direction and the cost of living skyrocketing the fact that TRUMP had a plan and Kamala had word salad and backing of multi milionaires that live in LALA land or NYC left little doubt who they were voting for
  21. If she had the ID card and showed her ageod enough to sell drinks then the bar manager has a problem becasue a lot of these girls look older than they are. If she could do the job then what do you do? I think the bigger probem is what the mother is going to do withher daughter. Now that the girl has seen the easy money she can make selling beer and drinks she isnot going to be satisfied with country living and going to school. She will leave agan maybe this time giving massage. Hard to say but guarantee if the girl left on her own the first time she wil be gone soon for a second trip maybe Phuket.
  22. People realized something that was evident more and more. You do not have to like the person to votefor them. You have to vote for the person that you think is going to make things better. TRUMP AND THE GOP were discussing actualy plans and outlining how they were going tom ake it better. They were talking about tangible things that they could and will do. On the other hand the DNC was talking about TRump and trying ot getpeope to vote for Kamala because she was nicer. The challenge to being nicer was that she never really stated what she was going to do and how she was ing to fix things. She was the kid in school that tells the teacher what the teacher wants her to say ot what is correct. She was givenmany oportunities to outline how she was going to make America Better and she blew it. First mistake was child tax credit that is nice but it still doesnot put money in peoples pockets in the middle class. She said that everthing that Biden did was great (I can't think of anything I would have done diferently) Just like Hillary instead of talking what and how she spent the lat few weeks talking about how bad and nasty half the country is and how TRUMP was going to be like a dictator for the first days of his presidencey. The law suits and court cases were the last thing that the DNC needed to talk about because everyone knew that DEMS HAD ALREADY DRANK THE KOOL AID GOP SAID THE KOOL AID SUCKED INDEPEND were getting sick and tiered of them and the numerous frivolous lawsuits and micky mouse court cases. The DNC screwed up with the Primary. Everyone either knew Biden had an issue or thought there wasn anissue. Instead of funning a primary and letting Dems choose who they wanted they protected Joe and eventualy due to the money had to pick Kamala. You can cry allyou want you can say things did not happen the way they seem BUT the one thing you can not argue is that Kamala got less votes than Biden. she lost a bigger percetage of voters in teh Latino, black community. The unions ran away from her and she lost all of the swing states.
  23. That Xand social media are not where you get votes. Also the left I hope learned that you need a person running that can think clearly and give real answers. Hell Kamala la made some of the Thai bargirls look and sound like Einstein
  24. And I bet you still think she had the best plan and the only reason she lost was black men and Hispanics don't like black women
