  1. Shirtless fellow is indeed sweating onto the pillows. Disgusting hygiene in a public facility. Who would want to use that space with his ’ odor’ all over ?
  2. Authorities not after the network because you take one down, another will fill into the vacuum. It is like organized crime. So authorities just try to stop the import as much as they can at the border control.
  3. Nothing will ever change until they instill stiff penalties on the offenders. Maybe jail time is necessary to knock some sense into their thick skulls. thai safety standards leave much to be desired. Life is cheap here.
  4. I think you are right. Thai QR code cannot be used by my overseas bank apps. All 4 of them. It said Thai QR code is not recognized by bank apps scanner so I guess each country’s bank app for QR code payment is localized only.
  5. Ya… adults do what adults do but these are behind closed doors or establishment catering to them. Not parading in the public spaces for all to see including children.
  6. Do not lump all Thais into one stereotype. As in other countries, there are various stages of decency in Thailand. Those bar girls working in Thailand are mainly from issan stock. Not all Thais are prudes and not all Thais are loose. However Thailand is still a conservative country steep in their culture and nudity in public is just a western culture not appreciated in Thailand. However when in their country, respect their cultural sensitivities or else go elsewhere. I believe Thais would not miss these type of tourists.
  7. If you value your life, never ever drive rural roads at night in Thailand. Trucks are notoriously under equipped for night driving be it human error or mechanical.
  8. Thailand was populated by Indians and people from western part of India in amcie t times. Even the Thai royalty were closely associated with Indian culture with the royal priests being Brahmins from Hinduism so there are many Thai citizens with Indian roots. Pakistan was part of Indian then. There are rich Thai Indian landowners along sukhumvit road from many years past.
  9. Manslaughter charges for the errant truck driver for sure.
  10. In Thailand, always drive defensively. Try to not drive after 7 pm as nighttime driving on Thai roads can be horrendous. Remember to never parked just behind big trucks with the notion of being rear ended by crazy drivers ( as in this case) even at traffic stops. Seen too many videos on speeding heavy vehicles with failing brakes at traffic junctions in Thailand .
  11. 52 years old is definitely too young to call it quits. May he find peace wherever he is…
  12. It is not the strength of the kick that matters. It is the way the other party was treated especially when the kicker is the foreigner . I think there is Thai face factor involved too. Maybe even a feeling of nationalism ? The Thai person is a doctor too. A profession that is held high in Thai culture. I believe the outcome would have been different if the doctor is just some everyday Thai person like a beach vendor, garbage recycler or a person of a lower social status.
  13. Why is it mostly the mistress who got the worst from the wife? What about the husband? It takes two to tango . If the wife is religious in Buddhist faith, she should be aware that this is all past karma. All parties are to be blamed.The mistress may ,in former life , even be emotionally connected to the husband and now the never ending cycle of karma due to the fatal incident.
  14. More likely the foot not following the mind in that person or the person mistakenly put his foot down the gas pedal instead the brake pedal. Mild parkinson?
  15. A very heated argument that sully his manhood? Who is supporting whom financially and maybe the wife felt empowered with new economic strength from the karaoke shop. We will never know.
