The challenge is collecting all the driver has to do is declare bankruptcy and it is done. It is a shame this is happening too often and not just with drunk drivers anyone remembers the young girl that killed the family she was sober but did not have license and was driving on the express highway

You know I find that Thai's are more friendly than expats when it comes to chatting. I walk by Thai people and say sawdii and get a response walk past an expat get nothing.

Until recently the military was seen as the savior prayut screwed it up by staying too long and thinking he knew best

Had to check calendar thought it was April 1

red t shirts and flags it would almost be like the parade route for King.................... charles

The challenge is not whether he can buy his way out I do not think the military will let him. It is the problem of what he does to the country. If he is jailed as he should be then the red shirt supporters will be in the streets. If he is either pardoned or given home incarceration with free rein to talk to everyone and the press then the Yellow or non-Thaksin will protest. Imagine the pressure that will be on the NFP from it;'s followers to take action that the court ordered as I strongly doubt he has many followers in the younger crowd and is seen as another one of the rich old guards that won't let democracy grow. That is why no military government has tried to get him or Yingluck brought back the best place for them and Thailand was wandering around the world looking impotent. It is interesting to note that while he wants to come back little sister is having nothing to do with it.

YOu as a rich farang of course can always ensure that her care is better by paying for her to move. As has been stated the idea is for terminally ill paitients to die at home or in patative care. This is actually the same in a lot of western hospitals the last thing they want is someone taking up bed space. As to family looking after her Look at it this way to nurses she is a patient that is not gong to get better To your other half she is family and the care is going to be better. My condolences I went through this with a gf grandmother as well as my own mother. Family is the best to look after and I guarantee that her family do not see it as a big burden

Nope but followed the orders. In defence of the Pakistani this is one case where I would have also ensured that the biggest ropes were used so that when the brass asked what the F is going on we could point out how smart one of the officers was. LOL

Aw but who were the people that taught them and trained them? Who were they to look up top or down to depending? Same with Pakistan, only you have Islam also involved. Pakistan military has an outpost near the Afghan border with a big tree that is held down with what looks like an anchor chain. The story goes that a Brit soldier more than in his cups stumbled out of the mess fell down and when he looked up the tree was moving so told the Pakistani servants to tie it down so it would stop moving.

LT I am sure is the starting job level for a forensic person. The fact that it is a police rank maybe to some confusing but remember everything here including teachers is a uniform government job. She will start out the same as any new hire anytwhere in the Western world doing the menial jobs in the lab and grow.

The words he says are true. He is not involved. However, it is like a lot of things. Is he directly involved NO but sitting over a Chang with a bunch of members he talks about his watches and how much it hurt him and wonders if there is anything that involves any of the other leaders. In the military back in the 70's my Boss a general had been sent a survey that he needed 100 soldiers to fill out. While we were in the field in winter cold tired and eating rations he flew out stopped at a KFC with his chopper and bought a lot of Chicken, fries and slaw. This was only for the troops he says in our command compound and to invite them to feast. After we were done he asked me what I thought of women coming into the field with us and could they do the same job. After a few of the guys thought about it every one realized the correct answer. Then the survey was handed out for us to fill out. The other unit to get the survey answers was the infantry lol Did he do what was asked yes did he plan it yes could he claim deniability in rigging it yes. The only one that does not do this is Thaksin and that is because he has no one he trusts

Just wondering. Seems to be almost every 3 months or so?

my bad sorry

IN Canada we call them crotch rockets. Guys get their licence and instead of buying a mid-size bike and learning how to ride it they go out and buy these rockets strap them on the drive as fast as they can. It is a shame. Then add in the bar scene and early morning when there is no one else on the road along with possibly lax drinking laws and this is what you get.

No matter what PITA and MFP should have them submitted by now. Any delay or excuse will only embolden the others that want to pt up walls.

Seems to be catching. Goverment may be wishing that they had a vaccine for it LOL My other half was a strong backer of the military (government employee) now she is asking the usual questions of why I think Pita or a different non-military party is the way to go. I think the proverbial cat is out of the bag. The only thing that they can do to stop it is for the elite to kiss and make up with the man in Dubai. The problem is that will only work for a short time and will kill the PT. A military Coup is not going to work if the people take to the streets. People are realizing the the military and their financial backers are the problem.

No he did an early morning close of a bunch of bars with no warning or legal premise. The people involved lost all their money as well as their business and ability to make money. Needless to say he is not their hero.

The one thing we need to remember is that while we are in the 22 century and have all the fancy tech stuff. A lot of countries are still in the 20th century. It was not long ago that British officers were officers based on their financial means, People bought their commissions or went to fancy schools. a lot of Asian countries are still in the same time frame. If you look at some India and Pakistan the feudal system still exists where the land owner has families that work on his land and he looks after them.

Posted 6 hours ago Please don't talk about how great he is when having a beer in NANA still, a lot of people are upset about losing their bars. I think he has the right idea the main thing that people do not understand is optics both these ladies might be good cops but .......

Is that not the same for most Western people. While there is not a lot of anecdotal evidence on LGTBQ+ look at the homeless in California. People feel sorry and think that more should be done but as Newsom said publicly that is until they want to build low-income housing in their local area., I feel that many of the people that trumpet this would be shocked and screaming if Junior the football player came home and at supper said Mom dad I am changing my name to sheila.

My point about buying and putting in the refrigerator was at the people that want to have a beer int he afternoon that are not working and complain that the store will not sell to them

The issue is not with the LGTBQ+ itself The extremes that want to take it up 2 notches. I am willing to bet that most live good lives and are open about what they are but do not seek extremes like drag queens, Walking into schools to teach and such. Considering that this is SE ASIA I think that the feeling and understanding of the 3rd gender is outstanding. People for the most part accept them. As I said earlier we tend to forget that Thailand has for the most part been in a military OLD MONEY world. Therefore a lot of the things that we in the west know have not reached or been allowed to function. Let me ask this question, Name a big city in the west that would allow open bars with drag shows and gay sections again in an open-air setting. in major tourist areas. How many have cabarets like Tiffany's or such (excluding Vegas). There are a lot of t hings wrong with this country that governments need to fix the question is this s top priority over minimum wage, hospitals and retirement

No idea depends on what you need done. I believe a consult is free

LOL you know that green plant that everyone is selling all of a sudden. Tried using old american slang sorry

Have you ever taken a girl out to dinner? Who paid usually When you go to a movie who usually pays? When you go out for drinks who usually pays. This has nothing to do with prostitution it is simply that in most cases a person inadvertently puts out money for the date. Plain and simple. As to going out with a bar girl you are more than guaranteed that they have been checked but then again I think (NO recent experience) that most demand condom just as most Thai girls and ladies do.
