  5. it's simple really.. Khao Yai still has wild Tigers within it's border, and Clouded Leopards (among other star residents). Case closed.. next! smile.png

    And they keep building so many nice new illegal resorts for people to go and disturb them.

    yes thats very true about whaqt you said .. illegal resorts in khao yai ...... you know who's daughter (...thaskins...) is bulding a multi million baht resort here ... but its all being hushed up though ...... still when your old man is still in charge and your aunty is a so called p/m .... there's nothing to worry about ............... love to know just how and where she got the money from .................... silly me ........ whistling.gifwhistling.gifwhistling.gif

  6. they lack accommodation and facilities to house hundreds of people during the Grand Prix

    complete utter bullshit many hotels and resorts around and inside the towns

    you must be delusional. name 1 world class resort or hotel in KK

    what the duck are talking about .... if you took your head out of your are and looked about .... you would see that korat has lot of first class hotels ......whistling.gifwhistling.gif

    really now thailand is spinning out of control .... more like the wild west than ever before .......the goverment has really very little intrest .... just thinking about how much money they can scam from diffrent projects ......

    thailand use to be a nice place ......... until the thaskin and his greedy clan started robbing the country blind .................thumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gif ---- coffee1.gif

  8. intresting point about just how many 15 day visa stamps your aloud ............ been living back here for the last 3 years and touch wood have never had any problems gettting a 15 day stamp ...... how can they refuse a 15 stamp ..... your coming back here as a tourist .... intresting anyway ......

    or is it the fact that it seems the thai's are getting anti- expats living here ...... been here 12/13 years now and things are not the same ...

  10. i had the same thing last year with my passport .... 1 year but run out of pages ...... but really no problem from start to finish it only took 2 weeks and i recevied my new passport from .. d.h.l .......

    mind you just a thought but wouldn't it be better if the thai goverment gave expats living here with thai wifes ..... kind of plastice id card ......like thai family cards ..... dont know about you but i get rather borede with filling in forms and photos .......

    mind you that would be all to easy for the thai's ..... crazy about filling in forms and ..... john bull ..... rubber stamps .............

  11. just a few words thats all , ppl ere might find it interseting or had the same thing happen to them ...... lived and been sriving here in thailand for some 13 years now ......

    2 days ago i was driving back from korat to saraburi minding my own busince sitting the middle lane driving doing about 85/95 klm ... when some thai <deleted> over took me and then side swipped pushing my car over the armoc barrier and flipped and rolled both his car and my are total right off's ..... yep you gused right as well he had no linice and no insurance ..... i,m 59 and have driven all over the world and never had a ccident .... driven H.G.V in the uk for years and road trains in oz ......

    thai's will never learn how to drive ... because they think they are the best drivers in the world ..... waste of time tryingt to teach or help them ......

  12. lost for words really .... lived here for 12/13 years now .... and still can not understand why ppl like this can walk away from things .... sure ok money ... what must the rest of the world see and think thailand is about .... one day things might change here ....

    think .... hiso kids and asre holes like this should be very carefull what and where they go from now on .....

    they might meet up with ... charles bronson .... from death wish ......

  13. really at the end of the day ..... how can you teach or try to teach thai's about road safety .... they just dont care or give a shit about anything ..... rule of the road here the bigger the vechile to more rights they have .....and for traffic red means sweet f/a .... i asked a thai once why he didn't buy a new bulb for his rear light ..... he asnswer was why .... ?? i dont want to see where iv'e been but where i'm going ..... ???

    it can all be put into one word ...... thai'ness .............. they will never ever change ............because they think they are the best drivers in the world ...... ha ha ha .... wink.png

  14. Maybe he had a reoccurrence of his ear problem.

    This man is a liability; however, with his influence and power, he is - at present - untouchable and unaccountable.

    What hope is there for Thailand when arrogance, sakdina, greng jai, nepotism and cronyism remain the order of the day?

    What hope for the future?

    What hope?

    thats so very true ... but lets face it there is no really answer to thailands problems ..... its the way things are here and have been allowed for the last 60 years or more ...... it will only change when ..............................whistling.gifwhistling.gifwhistling.gif
