  1. As an ex landlord I can tell you that sorry the tenant has not paid me does not sit well with banks. Also if others see you getting away with it they will too Get your sorry rear out of the apartment and do a late night move.
  2. Yeah I agree an autopsy should be performed I am just hving trouble understanding why the UK would fly the body all the way back to there and then perform a second Autopsy instead of looking at thw the Thai governemtn did. Is this normal for the UK that all suspicious deaths get a second autopsy seems like a wste of resources. To me dead is dead If they have charged the guy with murder or such then that is it until the trial.
  3. Texas high school postpones ceremony after only 5 seniors met graduation requirements https://www.foxnews.com/media/texas-high-school-postpones-ceremony-5-seniors-met-graduation-requirements Imagine 5 out of 33 students go through the 4 years of high school and finish with nothing. This is happening more and more in the states. I am not sure that a lot of countries in the west can harp at Thailands education system anymore.
  4. She will still be ahead of most Thai students. At 6 they are looking at math and basics.
  5. Not us. Thaksin Thaksin and the pt were seen as the anti establishment party and the party of the people. Thaksin is the leader of all these different parties because he had the money. Pt made 2 major mistakes. First was all the talk of him coming back. There's still a lot of people that do not want that and see him as part of the old style corrupt political system. Second was floating and saying they were willing to work with pprp and anutin to form the government if needed. Both these showed that PT was just a military old boy party. Not for change but to keep the PT status quo that has always ended in coup.
  6. The entrance test is the main reason you should apply to as many as you can. The top schools like Shrewsbury are able to pick the cream of the crop that is why their students do so well. All Thai schools do the same thing. Kids going from Anuban to pratom 1 have to do tests even if they are staying at the same school.
  7. Why not find a taxi driver and make a deal. I did this when I got here and it worked like a charms
  8. Why did they have to do an inquest in the UK. I am sure that a full report would have been done in Thailand. The crime was in Thailand. Why is the British government involved.
  9. The embassy CAN NOT guarantee that the family will pay the bill. Therefore the embassy is not going to pay the bill. Any embassy of any country that did it would be setting a HUGE PRECEDENT. No one would care about insurance as they would just say you paid for Mister X therefore the embassy should pay for me. Embassies are not here for the tourists they are here for political connection and recognition of the country they are in to promote business and political channels. They would all be quite happy if there were no tourists coming to any country that they are in. Speaking form experience tourist can be more of a problem than they are worth to an embassy.
  10. My question, though, is the hospital bill is the least of their worries the big worry is how do you get him on a flight home. I think most airlines would be a little squeamish about having him as a passenger. Most are going to want medical care at least and are going to restrict which fights. If he is still in a coma then they are going to want med flight only. That is going to cost more than the hospital bill.
  11. Like I said, there is a reason that people are moving out of certain locations and moving to others. We might complain about the baht but it still beats any other western country.
  12. As with a lot of things in politics, this was as floating of an idea to gauge public response. They got it it was negative so now they are denying it was ever thought of. LOL
  13. No, but Thaksin is and always has been thinking of and looking out for 1 person and that is Thaksin. If doing this gets him back in Thailand then that is fine and he can live with losing some of his political clout.
  14. Just lie everything else ther are good youtuber tiktokkers and there are the ones that do it with no regard. The difference is as the person said being respectful to others no matter if you're in your home country or not. Being in booty shorts and a tank top for instance at a temple is not respectful. Making videos in a temple is not respectful. There are limits that should be avoided. The problem is that sex and trash sell in this world of non responsibility and quick clicks.
  15. While I agree with what you are saying the one thing I have learnt here is never say it would not happen. Thaksin wants back home without free and clear of charges. The military camel wants to keep its nose in the tent and keep some control. ALSO REMEMBER T I T
  16. Any coalition or joining with the military either overtly of not would be the end of the PT. There is no way Thaksin comes back legally. The other side of the coin is that the PT becomes just another political party that will sleep with and play with anyone in the military that they are a prostitute for power not for the people. The next election would be the last and the PT which already got hurt by MFP would become the Dem party with a few seats but no power. It would also show that the military will kiss and play with anyone to keep their nose int he tent and keep some form of control.
  17. I know of the store he was talking about and agree that it is too close. I will give it credit though there is no obvious advertising and it started out looking like a coffee shop. It is not directly across from any major exits so as long as it keeps the are in front clean it is not an issue until the new laws get in place. I definitely think though that this has got to be a first 10 days thing for the MFP/PT.
  18. OK silly question time. How do you handle things if you get a pension form another country or have investments in the country. Do you need both a thai and Canadian will can the same executor action it?
  19. I think we do a disservice to the U.S. when we talk about how high the cost of living is. Reading about the GTA in Ontario. The costs that were /are increasing in Hongcouver and Montreal I can say that Canada is no different. There is a reason other than the ladies and the sunshine that I am not living in Canada. I visited Aus and can say that looking at the prices for hotels and what you get as well as the cost of things that again living in Sydney would not be my choice. I am sure London and other big cities are the same.
  20. Only if you keep it clean and exercise it regularly
  21. Thailand NO ID OK we arrest you anyway. UK NO ID we let you go US welcome y'all come in and set right down where ever you want we give you free hotel and meals.
  22. The last thing that MFP needs is PT and BJT in the coalition. Then they lose a majority of the control. Imagine having to deal with n ot just Thaksin but Anutin at the same time. Also remember BJT was the partner with PPRP or military and supported everything they did. I think a pairing of MFP and Pt can work as longas Thaksin stays out of it.
  23. These are not tourists that they are removing. My question though is how do these people afford to stay here and what are they doing for money.
  24. Upset io and they're going to deny on principle
