  1. Unfortunate The train employees got in the way of the locals. It would have been better viewing if the beating had gone on for another couple of minutes by the passengers.
  2. So this is trumps third time. That means he stopped 3 wars. Wow! He’s so good at ceasefires. If they fire at each other again and he opens his mouth, he will have stopped four wars.
  3. There no money to be made. So why help? You have to sweeten the pot.
  4. All the Chinese tourist money goes to Chinese or Chinese / Thai. So no big deal really. Western tourist money is spread out better among the Thai population.
  5. You would be amazed at how rich some of the police officers are. We are talking filthy rich. They must do such good police work.
  6. Wonder if people realize hun sen was part of the Khmer Rouge, which wiped out a quarter of the population of Cambodia. Millions of Cambodians just eliminated, and this guy has a ton of skeletons in his closet.
  7. All the whiners who complain about dirty looks from Thais just frequent the bars and farang places where the Thais have to deal with farangs on a daily basis. This would drive any human to give dirty looks to whiny farangs. If you venture out to where Thais are, they are normal people, and skew nicer. Most don’t care, some like farangs, some don’t like farangs.
  8. Still remember the cop who accidentally killed a drug dealer by suffocating him with a plastic bag because he wanted money from the criminal. And then we found out he had over 20 luxury cars. Pretty impressive for a policeman.
  9. Confucius say “it’s better to make less money than to have to deal with Chinese and Indian tourists.”
  10. surprise! Welcome to Thailand. Also, it seems they can’t work in Cambodia because the internet is too slow for these digital nomads. But anyway, seems like a bunch of criminals have figured out how to get these visas and are criming here because it’s like the Wild West.
  11. Just look for Chinese and Russian nationals with account over 10 million baht and do more due diligence. And if they are criminals, seize the money and treat it like a brown envelope. Most of the people with big money here are crooks anyway. Foreign and domestic. Leave the rest of us alone.
  12. Too bad he didn’t act on it. Those emails and phone calls never stop. Maybe if it happened, those annoying spam would stop. The politicians might get off their butt and stop the junk sent to us to save their necks. It’s worth a US senator if we all stopped getting spam. Senators grow like weeds.
  13. I would guess maybe as much as half the Brits I’ve met in Thailand are getting benefits from the motherland illegally. The ones not of retirement age and do nothing all day are prime suspects. Plus they complain about everything. They figured out how to scam the system like this lady.
  14. This is what happens when you give major contracts to friends or siblings who have no idea how to do anything except kiss up. Extrapolate that onto the whole country and you have thailand. The amount of incompetence up top is mind blowing.
  15. Once all the rich oligarchs, generals, and police heads figure out the distribution of the money, it’s a go. Everyone’s hands need to be greased to their satisfaction so no trouble is caused in the future. They could give two effs about casinos affecting Thai society. It’s all about the money, always has been, always will be with these people. Same pretty much all over the world. Chinese money laundering? No problem, how much is my cut?
  16. Looks like the elites are planning another kabuki theater for her return to Thailand. Just like her brother, all this song and dance but at the end of the day everyone knows she won’t spend one day in detention. Total waste of time and resources by thousands of people to act like justice is being done and the law is being followed. He relaxed in a hospital, she might get home confinement in her penthouse for a month. And the authorities will claim justice has been served.
  17. Lots of the rich and elite Thais have an evil smile when you really look at them. The genuine Thai smiles are found in the regular Thai people. You don’t see a warm smile in many hi-so Thais.
  18. When a police chief has to pay 15 million baht to be promoted, you know the whole system is corrupt. The police and generals are some of the richest people and landowners in this country. And they really don’t do anything.
  19. The inspection officers are rubbing their hands together right now. They are in for a huge under the table pay day. Bus owners will fill their wallets with untold riches and all buses will be declared safe for driving when the news dies down. And everything will be back to normal, as how it should be. Until the next accident.
  20. They need to charge the owner of the bus company for taking shortcuts and putting a death trap on the road. It’s the rich owners who have connections in high places that have as much blame for those kids deaths. Maybe start getting some competent and moral owners instead of rich people whose best quality is kissing butt and fake smiling.
  21. What kind of human being runs away when 6 year olds are burning on a bus?
  22. With the internet today, you can watch all this happen in real time with commentary. They are all scheming and planning for years, and then when it happens, the public already knows the plan. The fun part is watching them know that we know and they have to still continue on with the show, pulling all these elaborate schemes, and just wasting everyone’s time. All so they and their friends can have more money.
  23. The Chinese Thais who own and run a big chunk of Thailand are now selling out the country that adopted them. Thais will soon be second class citizens to the Chinese. If you allow too many of them in, they will take over and the Thais will have nothing. They will betray anyone for money and power.
  24. What kind of kabuki theater are the rich hi sos playing now?
  25. Can someone walk me through the printing up tm30. I just got back, input myself into tm30 system, but can’t figure out how to export and print up at home. It isn’t working for some reason. Do not want to go to immigration and ask them to print up if I don’t have to.
