I’m naturally more likely to be dehydrated and lacking electrolytes when in Thailand, and often suffer in the sleep dept.

Government Under Fire Over Rama II Construction Accidents
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Big money being made. They follow procedures originally laid down be competent western companies and have well trained management and personnel in place, or it’s on your bike. Industry elsewhere here is susceptible to corruption and incompetence. -
Something that this forum doesnt understand about Trump
daveAustin replied to hotsun's topic in Political Soapbox
America free elections? 😂😂 The US electoral system is a joke and about as contrived and messed up as it gets in the western world, being all about who can drum up the most money. Didn’t like the guy but Obama aside, reason why complete numpties keep ending up in the house. Hardly think ‘most’ Americans support what’s happening right now either. Many will be embarrassed, even those that voted him in will likely rue their decision over the coming years, while those that don’t care what the rest of the world thinks are typically bogun types that don’t know what the rest of the world even is… that Canada is north and Mexico is south etc. It’s a mess and all in the name of xenophobia. Maybe when this lot (Trump, Putin, Xi), and the current generation in general is cleared out, humanity can move forwards again. Op and co will disregard this opinion because, as with the extreme left, others are not permitted to have one.- 153 replies

Thailand Bars Alcohol Sales on Trains and at Hua Lamphong
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Baby governance. That was a very rare occurrence and sadly you’ll never prevent tragic deaths by penalising everyone, bringing policy down to the lowest common denominator. That’s not how it works in a healthy, happy society, or you may as well ban it state-wide. Tragedy is prevented through competent policing and public awareness.- 68 replies

How do you fit in a plane seat ?
daveAustin replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yep. Couldn’t be bothered to read the rest of it and am neither fat nor old, but this dude is begging to be flattened. -
Thailand raises retirement age to 65 for all sectors
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yes taxis will be taxed too -
^ I dunno dude, think he’s doing what he’s doing out of ego. No diplomacy and with the behaviour of a spoiled child, and a xenophobic one at that. Went with it last time and defended the bloke, but it’s just too much. He’s old and will be dead soon, but has already mentally taken the human race back a big step.

Few of them are. People can have their opinion and you see them on here, but they don’t bend much and won’t allow you yours. It’s not our fault that the US might buy more from elsewhere… since they don’t really make an awful lot, they have to. It’s also a false flag by orange boy that EVERYONE is putting one over on America, when in fact they gain massive strategical advantage from being allowed to put their bases where they want, for example. The people (the normal ones) are not to blame, even some of those that put the pissants in the White House, but Americans are gonna end up being hated. At least it should take some of the default focus away from the Brits. 😋

Thai Foreign Ministry to Address EU Concerns Over Uyghur Deportation
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Tempting to say ‘what’s it got to do with the EU’ and look at the state of them now, but since you have countries offering to take them in (US), you know there’s a motive. Thailand obviously couldn’t do that because it would lose face if they did that and thus not being able to sweep this under the rug, but that motive is China. A double shame on you, Thailand. That is just low! -
Because your system is broke. The US electoral system is rubbish and rigged. So many brilliant minds in America and yet there is only this or that donkey that gets put in. It is all about who can generate the most money and who shouts loudest. Do not allow old people or rich people to run countries. Especially the former. Anyone over 50 should be silenced.

Put on ignore and avoid the twaat. I’m probably right of centre a bit, but the way these tosspots carry on and slather over this ancient commie loon is embarrassing. He’s wrecking peoples lives because he has zero empathy, even for his own, is rich and will die soon and his shenanigans will never affect him.

Vladimir Putin Played Donald Trump Like A Fiddle On Phone Call
daveAustin replied to bannork's topic in Political Soapbox
It’s not that Trump doesn’t get it through the nuances of the Russian language or the translation ain’t right, more that he is as thick as pig’s S and is easily played. Putin is all over this idiot like a cheap suit. -
Songkran 2025 Set to Boost Thai Economy Amid Challenges
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not much different from normal numbers. It’s just more-published from the usual suspects to try to get people to stop having fun. Much like the boomer crowd here. Take your dour attitude and go and do one you miserable old bastards if you don’t like it. Don’t go bringing that rubbish here! -
Tourist Brawl in Jomtien Sparks Growing Concerns Over Pattaya Image
daveAustin replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Growing Concerns Over Pattaya Image They always do this. EVERYBODY knows about Pattaya’s ‘image’. If it was magically turned into a peaceful haven and no mongers went there, it would still have that image. It is what it is. You may be able to put lipstick on a pig and get away with it, but you can’t polish a turd! -
Thai Tourism Grapples with Declining Chinese Visitors
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Wow, chill dude, you’re irate. Get out of bed the wrong side? Drunk? Many here are just normal people that have had bad experiences with hordes of visiting Chinese and you’re not convincing anyone otherwise. I’m sure there are nice people in China and also visiting, but they generally don’t do themselves any favours when they come over in those big bolshy groups and start upsetting the locals. Any one people (including my own) piling into another country en-masse ain’t great and if the number from China is significantly reduced, it can only be a good thing. BTW, in case you hadn’t noticed, this is Thailand not Burma. 😋 -
Thai Tourism Grapples with Declining Chinese Visitors
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Well that’s one way to put it. -
Imo the worst that can happen is we all yield to Putin in the drive for peace, they mobilise and become strong again, then they do what they want, again. That idiot in the White House is in a good position to grind this out and bring Russia to its knees, having that little urchin eviscerated from inside, ending one of the biggest threats to the world. There is no negotiating with them. They are a despicable bunch that care not one jot for anybody. Guess you could say that about a few countries today.

Russia Rejects Trump's Temporary Ukraine Ceasefire Offer
daveAustin replied to Social Media's topic in World News
We knew this would happen, Biden or Trump. Putin is a lot smarter than the pair of them, and Zelensky. He'll take what he wants, and that is it. Trump has no input really, unless he means to go all in, and then that is game over. The way is for the world community to punish that little shyster by backing Ukraine and perpetually chucking on sanctions. He will be fold and be eliminated from the inside. -
Will Thailand always remain a Third World Country?
daveAustin replied to Robert_Smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
FO to your perfect 1st world haven then! Stop <deleted>ting on Thais. I may abhor barking dogs and the rest, but as crap as that can be, it pales to what donkeys have to put up with back there.
