better off just banning the Thai Goverment

"Currently, the case is very quiet. I don't know how much the investigation has progressed.

Not as quiet as the 17 year old Burmese girl who was raped by 5 Thai guys and killed in Haad rin Koh Phangan last week with not a sole charged. Haven't heard a peep about that. Must have been suicide.

wonder how many of those are American's scared off by the usual FOX news propaganda. Stay home and buy another gun!

Has to be a top 3 reason to deal drugs here. Need more money to get a hotter girl, or maybe just a whiter girl.

Happy to pay 35 baht for even the slightest improvement. Our local airport security in Surattani is a joke. I dont even worry about having over sized liquids in my carry on and as far as I can tell the body xray doesn't even work. And my friend brings foot long spikes for his bamboo tattoo business in pvc pipes no problem on carry on.

If they have white on their noses sad to say it's a nasty fungus that is wiping out entire populations mostly in North America.

This happens often at Makro and Big C in koh phangan. Almost always Eastern European or Russian and usually women. I have friends that work at both stores and often get to see the photos. The last incident at Big C looked like the girl just wanted to make a salad. Vegetables, dressing, tofu <deleted>?

Where else can you drive past a cop on your scooter without a helmet drinking a beer? Then crash and have the cops extort you for beer money.

Keep the brewing ball rolling who ever it might be! I have a handful of baht ready to buy good beer.

Without the increased distribution of beer lao (which I can happily say is even available at the local 7-11's in Koh Phangan I would be forced to drink more of the watered down with fruit juice, overpriced, crap boxed wines as the local beers are poor at best. Not to mention how overpriced beer is Thailand. Even at Changs price level 685 a box=$19.25. If it cost them a dollar to make that swine I would be shocked.

Reminds me of a friend who was an English teacher in bkk about 10 years ago. One of his private clients was a water filtration salesmen. He told my friend that Singha and Chang don't use and wouldn't buy a proper water filtration system for their beer water. So you got rice, dirty water and bad headache the next day.

when do the tickets go on sale and how do you get a few?

do you think she would sing like a virgin in bkk? Wouldn't she get a bunch of blank stares here?

I know all the larger banks here offer simple accident health insurance to farang with work permits. Can anyone here who has shopped around let me know who is best?

I am in koh phangan and the hospitals and clinics here way overcharge here for even the slightest issues.

"Most Thais have experienced intense constitutional debate throughout their adult lives, especially those born after the 1990s.They are now the most democratically alert people in the region, if not the world."

are you kidding me? Occasionally Thais are up for a good time sit in style protest with lots of whistles and food. But, saying that a majority of Thais have experienced intense debate over the Constitution of Thailand is ludicrous. My GF was born after 1990 and she often refers to the PM as the guy who's show ruins her soap operas. "why always have to talk talk talk when I want to watch my shows" LMAO!!!

Then on to the most democratically alert people in the world comment. I have seen plenty of protesting here in the last years to get someone out of office but when has there been a protest to speed up democracy or move up an election or democratic process?

yes I have one male Thai friend and of course he owes me 40,000bt. For some strange reason he hasnt been coming around any more after the 2 year interest free loan that is now 3 months past due.

One is enough.

Just when I thought my internet was slow. Cant wait to try to stream videos when all the internet is run through some crap Chinese mainframe that probably runs on diesel.

Charles Schwab no question. Free ATM use anywhere in the world. Great customer service over the phone that you can even all collect. Prepaid envelopes for deposits.

I hope he had enough time to finish the engagement visa process to enter America. He should be fine if he started about 9 months ago.

There is much more to this story. Multiple page write up in the New York Times back in July about this ships international gallivanting

This boat has slipped away from more then just the Thai police

at least they didn't rape his sister and decapitate him

I wish they were

What can i do about my swimming pool over flowing

white people problems...oh the pain!

Whats up with that beer chang promotional "plug" in that photo?

This shooting was sponsored by the all new chang classic....applause

If it was a man's foot I would say that is definitely the bite of a jealous Thai girl. Does the woman have short hair?

I just lost 2 minutes of my life. That was the most boring video I have ever seen.

Get the inflatable into Koo Greece ($1500) trek overland through Balkans, avoid the new fence into Hungary and then head west. Lots of good Syrian and African food on the way and before you know it your Swedish and golden!

What a ridiculous title for an article. Anyone who like to go who..ing and has been around knows damn well Malaysia is a crappy place to get laid. Combine muslim conservatism with expensive beer and that will never change.
