    Vans and taxis? Try the skytrain... (Took these photos this morning.) This enterprise IMHO is a disgrace! A big money spinner due to high demand, but with little money reinvested.

    And what is your point?

    Plenty more pics on google. Same story every where.

  2. Over here they doing the same thing.

     

    Last week the trains on a track couldn't go because wires were stolen. Now they try to replace the wires with aluminium ones because that is cheaper then copper and less valuable for them for selling.

     

    Abandoned buildings and houses need to be locked down completly so they will not remove all the metal.

     

    They even steal copper crosses, ornaments and rainpipes from churches and graves ( no pipes of cours ???? ).

     

    And also not the first time you can read in the newspapers a brand new empty building under construction had the brand new heating instalation and/or electricity stolen during a weekend.

    surprised the Director didn't have it go one step further... and paint the image of a pedestrian on it!

    You can joke but they accualy did it years ago in Canada near a school. The image "appeared" when you were about 30m away from it.

    They made it as a test for 1 week. After they removed it again scared it would cause to many accidents.

  4. What a rubbish excuse the stores use.

     

    It is very simple: don't give plastic bags anymore so they have no choice then use re-usable bags.

     

    Paper bags are not the sollution in Thailand. Buy something in the cold store and the humidity will make sure the bags will tear before you get to the car.

     

    Here the supermarkets no have free plastic bags anymore for many years. You can buy re-usable shoppers at the register if you still need one.

     

    And soon you can't either get little plastic bags anymore to put in fruit or vegies. Even for those they selling now bags you can use and when they get dirty they are washable too.

     

    Also here in some bio-stores they expect customers to bring their own bowls, boxes or whatever to put in the stuff they buy.

  5. Guess alot of those aren't happy they have to pay more for their daily hangovers and teenage hookers.

     

    Peoples Always wanna complain. That is the easiest.

     

    Years ago when the Baht was around 50 or more for 1 euro i never hear somebody say "oohh i wish it would drop a bit so the Thai wouldn't have such a bad time". But now when it is the opposit complain complain complain.

     

    Sometimes you win sometimes you lose. Just make sure even in bad times you win.

    It doesn't surprise me at all,

    that stuff is dangerous!

     

    I tried it once in Chiang Mai and ended up in hospital on a drip after vomiting repeatedly for days on end.

     

    I'll stick to my pepperoni pizza thanks!

    Dangerous haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

     

    When i'm in Thailand i eat kgs of it in 1 month. And without the aditional pla rah and 12-14 chilis i not wanna eat it.

     

    Never been sick. Only an occasional diarrhea (not even ones a month) when it is really spicy

    Great achievement...

     

    But let's wait for a full investigation first, would not be the first time pilot have been praised before an investigation found the pilots responsible,  remember BA92 Kegworth 1989 where the pilots switched off the wrong engine, I am sure there are more...

    Plane's engines failed by a birdstrike. So don't know what they could have done wrong.

    so many times I see the business section with only a few people

     

    When i fly to Bkk i also wanna upgade to business but i never do because on my flight they are so expensive. Here they charge around 3000€ while the cheapest is about 50% cheaper (turkisch airlines). Most airlines are between 1800€ and 2400€ for their business seats.

    The price of life in Thailand is down to only 400 baht.  RIP to the poor fellow but when will Thailand wake up and stop this utter waste of young lives ?

    You really need to make it a "thailand only" thing again?! 

     

    Like this doesn't happen all over the world for any stupid reason and/or less money then this.

    well that is not the problem is it ?

     

    If you buy a Steak pie of a street vendor you expect it to be beef

     

    Has anyone ever seen "horse" on a menu in Pattaya - I haven't but have probably eaten it along with dog 

    Think Thailand haven't enough horse meat to put it on regular base on the menu in multiple restaurants in any city where lots of foreigners will come who like to eat horse meat.

     

    I also have seen lots of goats (more then horses in Thailand) in muslim areas but i still haven't seen it on menus. And i know muslims eat that.

  12. The man just need to get 12 or 24V out of his "machine" to keep his battery charged. He probably has some kind of alternator inside what he needs to spin to make his voltage.

     

    Like this he can use his "pure sine wave invertor" ( blue thing on top of the battery) what he connected with the battery to make 230V.

    These things already can give up to 2000W and are regulary used in mobilehomes and stuff.
