Phuket the new cesspool of Thaialnd. People in Pattaya thank you for taking the focus off beach road.

I can remember a few years back when Thais got arrested because they showed a pic on Facebook There are things they can do. First, give the police a mandate to charge and arrest anyone drinking and driving. PERIOD Then take away their cars in a lot. Also, and this will upset many Farang, the rules about hours of service and selling alcohol should be changed. Any restaurant or bar that sells beer before 12 should be charged and closed.

I hear you being diabetic and a non-friend of Spicy, and I share your concerns.

I don't know where you are eating, but I have seen very few restaurants that have a service charge unless it is the big hotels. Personally I tip for the good or bad service I get. Yes I tip 2 baht for bad service. leaves them wondering I tip well for good service. not just for the good service that I got but if you are a regular or go back to a place, you are remembered and get the same service. It boggles the GF when we go somewhere, and I don't even have to ask for a drink. The only question they ask is what she would like. Or we go in and get a good seat and are looked after. Hell, even Starbucks knows my name in a few shops because I tip and praise them.

They are forgetting one big wrench in their plan. Most people in South are muslim. Not sure they are going to look forward to heavy drinking and girls running around in bikini

Now it seems that there is a 1 price for all. Personally, I like it for special days like Valentines or for a nice night out. I just wish it was easier to get to and that meter taxis were available

Has anyone noticed the vapes are now linked CDs and movies used to be on Suk? They are showing pictures, but one of the salespeople are holding stock. The problem is that yes they know who is selling them but the brown envelope is big. The rules for vapes should be the same as the rules for alcohol, cigarettes, and Marijuana. No sale of any kind within 1000 meters of schools and no sales to anyone under the age of 18. Pemalty is simple they close up the store permanently.

Hey, don't laugh too hard. According to climate activists cows are a major part of the pollution and climate problem The same reason that cows are part of the probelm can be also attributed to a lot of expats at bars.

This is a forewarning about the SRT lines that they have opened on the cheap. You have to have the funding and a continuous maintenance plan. The keep prices down and this is new so it will not need work is a fallacy. Consider that with Condos, we have condo fees, and a portion is set aside for maintenance and upgrades.

That's because when you go for the first time they don't know you. Then they get to know you.

It is strange but then again who knows about the foot wear there are shops around her in Pathum Thani that they ask you to remove footwear. Just part of living in Thailand Sorr NB but I think that is the russian, Would prefer a getter pick of her though LOL

What country is your friend from. Monthly payment out of country for CDN is go to embassy with proof for one year of deposits sign declaration get letter Take letter and monthly bank statement to immigration 20minutes later have a nice day Of course this is at pathum Thani Might take longer at cw

Did you consider that maybe he just didn't have any. I am sure if you had asked after lunch he might have helped you. Timing is everything.

The newest member of the MFP

I noticed that a lot of universities are now accepting the Duolingo test. Correct me if I am wrong but not long ago IELTS was the gold standard. Where did this one come from, or is it a by-product of COVID?

I agree, but the LM charge and Yingluck are all things that the military can hold as their guarantee that there is no dissolution and then a joint agreement with MFP. The challenge that you have in the country is that the country people and the older people still remember the good days when they could count on certain parts of the system or a certain person to come out and help them. There is also the belief in the same quarters (again, 50 years plus) that the military has always come to the rescue of the country when there is a problem. Some people think that Thaksin has been beneficial and that the PTP is the only party that cares about them on their farms or villages. In BKK and larger cities, the elite have lost much of their hold and are desperately trying to regain it. I think that will not happen.

I have a hard time believing that this will happen any time soon. Before this can happen, they need to take control of the Senate. Thaksin is playing the same games he always played. The one thing he has not taken into consideration is the military elite, not so secret weapon. COUP. Any change that threatens the current government will be met with art 112 in that the PTP in joining with the MFP have decided that they also want to make the anti-monarchy changes that would be unlawful There fore, they must go, and Thaksin, as the leader, must be charged. Remember that Tony has a Lese Majeste charge hanging over his head right now.

The party may have a different name but it will be here. As to defending what is happening NO just stating that it is ot the first time and probably will not be the last. Eventually, hopefully, it all gets sorted as the different age groups and philosophy change.

It is surprising the things that this government is doing to try to make people happy. The only problem is they are hitting a group of voters big enough to outvote those opposed. The funny thing is that even if they agree on a casino the outcome is going to be decided by the location that is chosen. Consider that if Chang Mai gets it, the north will be happy, but Bangkok, Pattaya, and Phuket will be up in arms.

The challenge is that we have to change decades of military rule. Just like most things, this is not going to be easy, as the elite and military have been at it too long. Most of the older people have enjoyed the way it was. They remember that the military and monarchy have always looked after them. Just as it takes the PTP decades and still fighting for recognition it will take the MFP movement a long time. Eventually, they will both become more dominant and will take control, but it is going to be a slow process. Consider the timeline for England and all the wars it took in the country to get where they are.

Lese Majeste is more common thatn we think LOL https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lèse-majesté

The party will still be there either as an independent or under a different name. Remember, this is the same thing they did to Thaksin when he started, and he just kept coming back. Thai rak Thai 1098- 2007 People Power Party 2007-2007 Pheu Thi Party 2007 - present You also have to remember that schools are out, and students only have a little to do. Yes, it is hot out, but that will not stop the protestors. If this passes and is accepted by the courts, I think the water fights will start sooner than expected. Just what the government needs when it is trying to convince people to come to Thailand. protests and unrest leading up to Songkran. The joke of it is that they are not trying to get rid of the article. They are only trying to limit who can charge someone. How many times have we seen the PPP attack dog threaten people? Thaksin is coming up on charges do you really think the PTP wants this hanging over their head when that happens?

Correct me if I am wrong, but most of the crime is away from walking st on the soi's and beach road is it not
