Pearls of wisdom from the Colonel of Marine Police ....... they don't need Marine Police, they need Marine Safety Inspectors to check the seaworthiness of all boats at regularly defined time intervals - qualified Maritime Safety personnel.
They do exist in Thailand - I have worked with them.

I notice , once again , and at the risk of repeating myself that there were no faring bikers involved.
The guy who made the claim that Farang Biker clubs control the drug business in southern Thailand has been proved wrong yet again - how many more times before he / she posts a retraction ?

There are some fine figures of men in the photo to be sure.

How sad is this ?

I think that not too many Farangs actually understand the depth of feeling surrounding this issue.
Many red shirts worship Thaksin however his levels of corruption have disgusted many of them as well.
My wife and her family , for example , are red shirts to the bone but are equally determined that Thaksin must be brought to justice, and they are far from being alone in the red shirt community to feel this way.
Suthep is a nutter who is extremely likely to force the hand of the military and bring about another coup.
At least the country works when the Army run it...

Visitors should be like weekends - never last longer than 2 days....
We have quite a lot of visitors from both sides of the family and as long as they clear off before it gets too much I have no problem with them - its the bums that piss me off, and they are both Thai and Farang - arrive empty handed, hang on and on , drink and eat you out of house and home and then go without even a thank you.
You see these people everywhere , not just Thailand...

External appearance is very important to most Thais--especially the elderly. They do not really like or appreciate shorts and t-shirts, prefering to dress in what most of us consider to be extremely uncomfortable clothing. Thais, in general, are extemely conservative, which probably seems to be an odd statement for farangs who have never lived in the countryside. There are way too many disgusting, revolting, violence-loving, sick-in-the-head farangs in Pattaya-Jomtien that are giving the rest of us a bad reputation--many have shaved heads and loads of tatooes that make them look like they just escaped from prison. At best, I think most Thais see us as "strange outsiders" w/ "money." The girls tend to see us as walking ATM machines.
I keep my hair close to shaved and have a lot of tattoos - I also hold down a 340k p.a. job and am a law abiding , mainly quiet and content individual and far from sick in the head .
Beware of judging people by their appearance and jumping to ill conceived conclusions my friend.......by the way I agree with you about the behaviour of certain sections of faring society 100%.

Not a Farang biker gang then ?

Since they will only get 25% of the vote anyway , who cares if they boycott it or not.
Suthep is not interested in Democracy or the electorate, only in his own personal gain.
Il Duce of Bangkok - he makes less sense that Oswald Mosely did back in the 40s, rants and gesticulates more than Mussolini and makes as much sense as a chocolate ashtray.
The other side are no better but at least Yingluck is easy on the eye...........

You might find the answer in the Thai Criminal Code , which you can download in pdf format ( English Translation ) from ThaiLaws.com
Good Luck.

It's good where I am - usually start on the beach with the family - food, drink , a staged cabaret and of course fireworks at the hour.
My wife then takes the kids home and I go into town to see my faring friends ( don't bother with comments about chauvinism - I don't care ) to have a more booze related celebration of the year's passing.
Seems to work - by the way David 48 , Thais do celebrate New Year on Dec 31st/ 1st Jan and have done since I first came here in 74 - Songkran is Songkran, not New Year - note when the year changes in the calendar .

GO TO THE ICE DOME IN HAT YAI - its 100 baht for 20 minutes and most punters are in and out in 5 - not only is it snow in Thailand, it makes money !!!

Nibbles48 is clearly an extremely deranged individual.
As for Suthep paralysing Bangkok , somebody should paralyse him, especially around the mouth muscles.
Any similarity between his rantings and footage of Mussolini is not accidental - take a look.
He is a fascist of the first order whose only aim is to look after himself and his rich cronies - not a lot of difference between him and the man he rants about.
ONE PERSON-ONE VOTE - WINNER TAKES ALL. LIVE WITH IT !!!!!!

Who cares ?

Until the population have received sufficient education to understand what 'one person / one vote, majority wins' and accept it , there is no solution to the problem - since all sides pay for votes it is a level playing field.
Why do we have to have the pubs shut for elections ? If they all had a drink they might chill.....

Most of the serious crime in the news in Thailand is Thai on Thai. Start with the serial rapist/killer who killed a girl named Cartoon.
Others are Thai on foreigners. Why don't they check taxi drivers for knives and bamboo poles?
Because if the farangs didn't come then there wouldn't be a problem, they are provoking and encouraging locals to act the way they are.
Are you on Yabba ?

If the Marine Department was staffed by properly qualified mariners ( they exist , I have worked with some very good Thai seamen ) who actually knew how to identify what is safe and what is not safe it would be a start.

This man , wherever he comes from simply should not be allowed out on his own - he is clearly a congenital f***wit.

Since the Philippines are the third largest English speaking country in the world , it is hardly a pertinent comparison.

Suthep not happy with press treatment, resolves to do better

I find it amazing that so many people are so enthusiastic about revealing their lack of insight and general ignorance on this post.
The man is a rampant fascist , corruption is widespread across the board and in all parties
