Jordanian Begging Gang Exploits Children at Bangkok ATMs, Prompting Arrests
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Probably turned in by the Chinese begging gangs... can't really picture Thai cops looking into this from their own sense of law enforcement, duty -
Hardly qualifies as a "rampage" in my book.... but then again, I am an American

Pattaya Police Hold Special Thank You Event for Tourists
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Need an easy to access eyeroll response emoji.... how about a job well done (aka "law enforcement") would be thanks enough for coming to visit for most tourists I would imagine. These stunts (like that mass of cops the other day) seem to underscore how woefully clueless and inept the BIB here in sin city truly are -

Thai Government Plans to Establish Clean Drinking Tap Water
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Clean tap water? Slippery slope alert! Next thing ya know might promise pesticide free food... is there no end to this maddness? -
Young Russian Tourist Attacked and Robbed of Phone in Pattaya
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
15-20 years ago the women looked like 1957 tinsel Las Vegas bad taste hookers... a bit better now I live off of 2nd road... there are large stretches without other people around or decent lighting. I don't go to those areas after 8 pm She went to 7/11... maybe it was 'that time of month'. Unlike the "women" some of her detractors date here, real women have what it is known as a "period" monthly. Need supplies -
Thai Mercenaries Are Not Fighting For Israel: Ministry
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Given Thailand's record of being on the losing side(s), I would expect any mercenaries to join up with Hamas -
Helmetless motorcycle rides in Thailand puts lives at risk
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Interesting (?) choice of stock photo for this story: crashed motorbike and driver on ground with a full helmet with mask. I'd say masked helmets will never catch on here: too hard to see the text you're working on while driving down the road here -
Pattaya Receives Esteemed Transparency and Integrity Award
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
I've been here about 20 years, and this is the mega whopper, the leviathan of are-you-kidding-ville, off the charts you-can't-make-this-up absurdity award. But all makes sense: look who gave this out: "The ITA Awards, organized by the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), were chaired by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Energy, Pirapan Salirathavibhaga." -
Thai HIV patient admits having one-night stands with many men
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I did a rewrite of Hotel California for this place, last bit goes like this: "Last thing I remember as she headed for the door You help family me maybe pay a little more "forget it" I said "That's all you'll receive I don't pay you to stay.... I pay you to leave" -
Thailand Combats Violence Against Women and Children
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I did. I'm asking you to point out where you got the info... copy and paste or otherwise provide link in article please -
Jealous Husband Attacks Wife and Fatally Stabs Himself
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Maybe this sort of action should be encouraged... rid the kingdom of these pathetic types! Over talking with a man while taking clothes to wash? -
Thailand Combats Violence Against Women and Children
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I saw no stats or other numbers regarding Thailand DV in the article you cite. Can you help this ignorant person out and show where it is hidden? Much of what I have heard is anecdotal or from the news, but my perception is that Thailand has more than its share of domestic violence, tho no where near as high as the middle east -

Just to be sure, use a condom when you beat your bishop. "You can never be too safe. Think of where that hand has been." -
Pattaya Air Suffers ‘Worst’ PM2.5 Hazardous Dust Level
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
The WHO "safe" levels of PM 2.5 are set at 25 for one day (lowered to 15 in 2021), or average of 10 per year. The level of 50 is something the Thai government cooked up... still can't meet even those numbers huge percentage of the time... (this from IQ air site) -
Opinion: Reforming the police can be an easy win for Srettha
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
"Thailand, like numerous other countries, has witnessed instances of police corruption and abuse of power." This is news? since when? Not just "witnessed": part of day to day operating expenses of businesses.... a "tax" without benefit to the public that drags down economy -
Security Guard in Banglamung Killed After Crashing Motorbike into Tree
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
At age 43 I reckon he's probably spread his DNA about enough to ensure his sort of intelligence didn't die with him -
Myanmar military using foreigners including Thais as human shields
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
“The army is using them as forced labor to build bunkers, dig trenches, and carry timber. They are practically human shields.” said who? They apparently have no understanding of the concept of "human shields"... Burma and Thailand should understand slave labor, what with death railway of WW2 -
Regarding "sun never sets", was referring to very long history of Britain and it's colonies all over the world that were manned by a large number of British citizens (I reckon); whom I assume would have wanted to vote, and I wonder why that whole issue of absentee voting wasn't solved at least a century ago (dang, long sentence!)
