I have been with NCS and am now with PSI Ben Weinstein. For someone to talk to and get non-filtered response, Ben is good. Ben is located near Phrom Pang BTS. He will do zoom or in person.

The problem is that Thaksin's comms channel has never worked for the military or elite. Consider that every time he or a family member got elected the military through his or her out-of-power The only reason that they are together now is because PTP needed someone to prop them up and bring him home, and the Elite needed a party or person that they could control due to the MFP threat. The elitet will let Thaksin have his freedom only until it suits them to take it away. The LM charge and April case date is proof of that. They can either hammer him while everyone is celebrating or pardon him and hope no one notices. Also remember that little sister is now left on her own and not able to come back. Name one thing that the PTP promised that has come to pass or looks like it will come to pass.

Why don't you buy it and give it to her later. I don't really understand or knowany Thai teens into realestate. Also where does she get the money to buy it.

But as long as thaksin stays out of jail the elite still control the government. Therefore PTP has to kowtow to them

The chances of that are the same as the military not wanting control. The interesting quote or joke is The Pheu Thai party, associated with Thaksin, currently holds power, presenting an opportunity to shift the focus from past conflicts to future progress. The PTP holds almost no power as they are owned and responsible to the military elite parties to stay in control. The PTP is only in power as long as either the MFP is a threat to the military or they (the PTP) upset the military. The military/elite control a great deal, consider that the power positions in eh government are controlled by the Elite proxies.

Yeah this article spells it out pretty good. Does anyone have one? I am wondering what the electric bill is like and how long the average battery charge is?

You know what they say about hot air rises LOL Stop breathing while reading AN

Has anyone ever tried to set up a meet up for expats living in BKK. Next question how many would be interested in meeting for a coffee. Or....

My MIL tried to commit suicide. They told her that she needed to shoot below her boob so that she would hit her heart. She did what they said but blew her kneecap out.

remember that close to 50% of the country is rural and really lives a life that is not dependent on anything other than what they grow/ make or sell. There is also a definite poverty level in the big cities. i think in the cities it is more abserved than in the rural aras. The interesting point I wish they would make with these polls is the percentage of rural and age groups. 80% of the people polled are 18-25 would mean a whole different result than 80% over 55 and living in rural areas,

This is not a Thai thing Take a look at Pakistan. To a greater extent, this is an Asian thing. How many countries in Asia have free elections that are not controlled.

Actually, this site proves the point. I had a reasonable comment removed because future discussions might have gone over the rules.

The funny thing is that if you look at the election they just held in Pakistan the same thing is happening. Change is coming, but it is going to be so slow. None of us will live to see it. Movie theaters to me are an interesting view into the country. 6 years ago, if you did not stand when the clip came on, everyone looked at you. Now if you stand, everyone looks at you.

Personally, I would never buy a computer online. there are just too many issues. The first one is what happens if there is a problem. Is it what is adveertised. I agree with other posters. Go look at them, and If you go to a shop, you might get a lower price or price that is just as good, and you also have a place to take it if there is an issue.

It is going to make for a very interesting time in the future. If any of the Shin's get involved in the government or next election. You can be guaranteed that the military parties voters and the PTP supporters will be reminded of this. But then again TIT

Perhaps the Republicans got fed up with the Dem government and the way the city is and went to Texas or Florida like a lot of other people. NY is a Dem state, pure and simple. Rudy got in and made a lot of difference as Mayor.

Sure they can ask. Then I would either go and look or have a team that is trained look and evaluate. Then I might change the offer. The other thing that I am sure banks look at is how much of his business they can get.

I make the assumption that it is more than a few baht. As to the cost of a lawyer, you are right, but my point is that the OP and the MGMT are not going to be able to hold a conversation. It sounds like there is a war brewing. Having a lawyer or someone of authority talk might resolve it quickly.

If he is in the high range then seeing a specialist and getting retested will reolve if there is an issue. It does not hurt to find out things about your diet or lifestyle that may be a cause. That way, the OP knows what may be a problem in the future. Preventative medicine is always better.

It is interesting that he has to be in the hospital because he is so sick, BUT once he gets parole and can go home, he will be fit enough to get out of the hospital.

The only difference between buying houses and large land developers are the size of the loan, and the amount of checking that banks go through. The banks do due diligence and are supposed to check the information. Although it is not the same, look at the RE mortgage crash 2008. That was caused by banks not doing their true diligence and making sure that people that got the mortgages could actually afford them. It was also due to the banks not confirming the value of properties that 1 day were worth 100K and then 2 weeks later were valued at 200K. The banking world has been doing this crap for as long as they have given loans. Should they not be also responsible if they misvalue a loan? How many Bank managers or people went to jail because they did not do their due diligence? TRUMP overvalued property, so what? If you walk into the bank and tell them that your house is valued at 5 mills, is it going to believe you? No, they are going to check it out. [

You really need to look at things and history. There is a huge difference between someone who got money from their dad and blew it and someone who got a little money from his dad and then built a huge property network and holding throughout the world. TRUMP did everything IAW to the practices at the time. No one held a gun to the bank's head to lend him the money. The banks looked at the name ont he paper and the fact that they wanted to be a part of what he was doing. Could they have argued and lowered the appraisals yes. The fallout is going to be huge in the U.S. Everyone now will be libel for some government person to look at what they did Legally 10 years ago and say nope. We are going to sue you because you made money. Do you really think that Amazon and Microsoft did everything completely by the book? There is no chance they took legal shortcuts. But now Bezos AND ALL THE PROPERTY DEVELOPERS IN NY state will be looking at who is next. Just imagine if California realizes that they can do this and make back the money that will help with their budget. Although it is TRUMP that they did this to there really is nothing to stop them from hitting any large developer.

Many people play pool with money on the line. Gio into a bar, and usually it is loser buys LOL. Yes, it can be played for fun. No itr should not be on the list. The funny thing has anyone been to a Muay Thai fight lately. Lots of money won and lost there. Look at the big TICKET ITEMS the government is working on. Getting Taylor Swift to perform in Thailand. Eradicating PM2.5 with a study Lowering BTS fairs on new lines. making Marijuana illegal again. Making Songkran a 21 day festival. The issue is that they can do nothing of any consequence because they do not have the power so they are doing things to look good.

or a phone call
