Confuscious

Or the same as many others? https://www.thaipbsworld.com/court-orders-release-of-teenage-mother-who-dumped-baby-in-river/ Court orders release of teenage mother who dumped baby in river. The Juvenile and Family Court in Thailand’s Nakhon Pathom province today (Monday) ordered the release of the teenage mother who dumped the body of her 8-month-old baby into the Tha Chin River in February, after the public prosecutor failed to indict her within the 90-day limit. The court also ordered the return of 9,000-baht surety, put up by the Win Win Foundation as bail for the 17-year-old mother.

1. He confessed the crime. 2. I guess that he didn't commited such crimes before. 3. He cooperated with the police. He will be back on the streets in a few years at the worst.

The wild wild south-east Asia ...

I think I was very clear that I would use the car only for inner city transport where the speed limit is 40km/hr.

How can they have human rights when the biggest part of them are not humans? Money-hungry animals; Power-hungry animals; etc. Not a single trait of human decency.

How about instead bickering who is going to rule this f'd up country, starting to do something for the children and the elderly? Of course, that will never happen in the 3 rd world country of clowns.

Is this "child abuse" week? Amost every report on ASEANNOW today is about Child Abuse.

Seems that no one of the ASEANNOW readers is concerned about the 200 child victims? hmmmmmm......

How many cases like this are happening almost daily in the "Land Of Smiles" that don't make the news? Almost weekly, a similar case hit the news and is forgotten before the weekd is over. Thailand makes billions of Baht revenue from tourists and rice exports, but the same Thailand has not enough money to spend a few baht on the children's wellfare or the elderly. THAT MAKES ME SICK!!! THAILAND, a 4th world country full of FAKE SMILES. Back to the Miller watches, the pocket lining of rich families and the lazy RTP.

Long ago, I started to be tired thinking of what gift to give to anybody. I made the choice to give everybody I wanted to give a present a PREPAID CREDIT CARD with the amount I would chose to load the card in an Enveloppe. This card was world wide accepted, even on Internet purchases. Niever had a problem with gifts anymore.

I found this on the internet too, but with a different amulet. My amulet doesn't seem to be found on the internet.

I never understood the meaning of an "Expensive" burring or cremation of a dead corpse. What do people expect from burrying a corpse in an expensive grave (Catholic) or cremating a corpse at high expenses (Catholic and Buddhism). At the end of the day, the dead corpse is forgotten about and life goes on. But leaving many times the family with a high debt. The dead corpse will be burried in a grave or put in a vase and if lucky, some of the family will come to see once a year if the grave or the vase is still there (hoping that it was blown away so that they don't have to come again next year). Giving a corpse to Science gives the dead person the opprtunity to serve science and hoping that technology can advance in that field (students will be grateful to practise the theory with the reality on your dead body). And when you can give your body to science just before you go, your organs can be donated to people in need. Come on guys, we live in 21th century.

I wear an amulet which was given to me by my neighbor when I moved to Korat, more than 20 years ago. AFAIK, it's Phra Chinnarat, Somdet from Phitsanulok. I tried to Google for it, but can not find this particular amulet. Can anybody tell me more about this amulet and provide me a link where I can find more about this (Thai or English). TIA

If everything goes as planned, I will move by the end of this year to Spain. I will buy an EV in Spain for my urban travels to the supermarket, hospital, etc. I have already made my choice and it's very affordable for everybody. On top of that, I will receive incentives from the Government when I purchase an EV and I don't need a DL for this. Citroen AMI The Citroën My Ami Buggy has a base price of €9,790 or around $10,300 with the current exchange rates. It's powered by an electric motor making 8 horsepower (6 kilowatts), drawing power from a 5.5-kilowatt-hour battery pack. It has a range of up to 43.5 miles (70 kilometers).

My last will stipulates clearly that my corpse will be donated to science and I have no relatives (which I would give a rats a.. about). In my country we call this "No wreath, flowers or crocodile tears".

I have written in my last will that my corpse would be donated to science. No costs. That's the easiest and the best solution. I don't get it why people are attached to a corpse after the person dies. Most of them, have never taken time to be with that person or even write him/her a few letters when he/she was alive.

The price for a health insurance above 65 is enormous compared to health care in most places in your own country or even countries neighboring Thailand. And most people of 65 years of age have already existing diseases which are NOT COVERED by any health insurance in Thailand. About the rest of the OP, it's complete bulls.t and I don't even want to answer that drivel.

I don't have an EV, but I would like to know if they are sold with a portable electric generator on diesel or do you need to buy it yourself,?

Thai people are grown up with superstitious beliefs and taboos. Some are still believed to be true, and some are now used to tease friends. Giving a gift is a nice gesture but some items have negative meaning especially to your relationship. Here are 10 presents some Thai people might consider bringing bad luck; 1. Shoes รองเท้า /rawng – táao/ If you buy shoes for your girlfriend or boyfriend, it is believed that it will cause the break up because shoes need to be in pair, a couple who are dating but not living together could be cursed to go different ways. 2. Black clothes เสื้อผ้าสีดำ /sûea-pâa sǐi dam/ This item is frightening. Do not give black clothing because ancient Thai people consider black as the colour of pain and sadness used for mourning. If you give a black cloth to someone, you will go to that person’s funeral. 3. Watch / Clock นาฬิกา /naa-lí-gaa/ It is believed that if your loved one gives you a watch or clock, your relationship might be over like the clock stops ticking. 4. Perfume น้ำหอม /náam-hăwm/ As Thai people like to say if you don’t believe it, don’t disparage it. Many Thai think giving perfume to your partner could make your love lessen like the scent of the perfume that is fade away over time. 5. Photograph of Yourself รูปถ่าย /rûup-tàai/ Another thing that you absolutely don’t want to give to your darling is the photo of yourself because giving a photo for memory when you are apart. 6. Handkerchief ผ้าเช็ดหน้า /pâa-chét-nâa/ Thai believe that handkerchief is used for wiping tears, so someone who receives a handkerchief as a gift will lose their tears. If you don’t want your beloved to cry, avoid giving this item. 7. Sharp objects ของมีคม /kăwng mii kom/ It is believed that giving sharp objects as a gift will bring the receiver danger, bad luck. 8. Comb หวี /wǐi/ Thai people compare relationship to the teeth of a comb, you don’t want to go apart like the comb’s teeth. 9. Brooch เข็มกลัด /kĕm-glàt/ A brooch is a beautiful accessory but Thai believe that giving a brooch is like stabbing that person’s heart, creating pain and argument. 10. Glassware เครื่องแก้ว /krûeang gâew/ It is a common gift. Superstition has it that if the glassware is broken it means the relationship is also destroyed. Some Thai people give a small amount of money like one Baht or ten Baht to a person who gives the present as if they purchase it, so it doesn’t bring them bad luck. Gift Giving Tips: If you are given a gift, it is considered rude to rip the wrapping paper. Carefully remove the wrapping, fold and set aside. Flowers is appropriate gift. Avoid marigolds or carnations as they are associated with funerals or lotus as it is used for worship Buddha image. Many male readers ask about my gift ideas for a special someone. Here are some suggestions what ladies like; Diamonds are a girl’s best friends! If you look for a special gift, a pair of small diamond earrings or a necklace with a diamond pendant is a lovely way to express your eternal love to your significant other. Good quality beauty products such as Tom Ford lipstick, Dior eyeshadow palette, Chanel powder blush etc. It is nice to embrace natural beauty but makeup is fun! A pretty handbag. For women, purses are like friends, you can’t have too many! Roses are always sweet thing. Whether you give the full dozen or just a single stem, roses say “I Love You” like no other flower. Lastly I would like to note that love doesn’t equal expensive gifts, the price tag on the gift you buy doesn’t matter for a recipient. Just show your love by making everyday special – cooking a nice meal for them, giving a compliment how beautiful they look, ask “how are you – really?”, saying magical words “thank you”, “I’m sorry” and forgive their mistakes. I wish you all the best ,joy ,happiness and love! https://learnthaiwithmod.com/2015/02/10-gifts-you-shouldnt-give-to-your-loved-one/

A new "Side Hustle" advertiser on Instagram?

The Dutch coast guard said Thursday the cause of the blaze was unknown, while Dutch media reported that the battery of an electric care started the fire. https://www.dw.com/en/burning-ship-off-dutch-coast-has-more-e-cars-than-thought/a-66375203#:~:text=A spokesperson for the company,Japanese manufacturers were on board.

Wasn't there a ship full of EV's burning recently?

I would like to see an official and reliable comparison between EV and LPG/NGV burned vehicles. Anyway, LPG burning vehicles were not allowed to park in covered places.

Way back, about 15 years ago, I modified my car to run on LPG. Although everything was done according to the rules, I was told that from now on I was not allowed to park my car in a covered parking space or some public places as LPG tanks could explode. Fast Forward to 2023 and a vast amount of EV are being parked in shopping Mall's and other public places and they are even offered charging poles. How can it be that LPG was considered a danger while EV's are burning by the dozen? Even in the knowledge that when an EV start to burn, it mostly burns out completely because there is not adequate material available to extinguish the fire. The whole EV brainwashing is waiting for a disaster in a mall somewhere where it starts to burn and ignites a domino effect in the parking lot. Uneblievable but true.

Let me guess..... You are the stand-up comedian in service and try to make everybody laugh with your stupid joke from the barstool somewhere in Pattaya?
