Hey Sararat Saengmook, All that hassle for 0.56g of Ketamine! Choosing to attempt to smuggle that was probably not one of your better decisions. -
Soi 6, Legs For Days, and a Chiropractor: A Cautionary Tale
Homburg replied to SoCal1990's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Hey Bob, I can sympathise as I've had similar back problems. The first time it happened was many, many years ago when I was getting out of my Fiat X-19 (anyone remember those?) the pain was intense and my back was completely immobile for hours. My solution was to sell the car! The problem recurs from time to time, always without any warning, but happily so far it hasn't happened in Soi 6, or Nana, or Soi Cowboy, etc. Word to the wise Bob, go to a BJ bar next time. Less stress for your back. -
The UK government is in denial about the solution to the problem. The UK government is spending beyond its means and taxes to support this excessive spending are too high. The current taxation and benefits system consequently disincentivizes work. It sends a very simple and clear message to taxpayers: you are not working for yourself, you are working for us, with effective tax rates up to 61% many have worked out that they are better off on benefits. And for those who do work, then potentially IHT up to 60% on anything they have saved (no, UK IHT, despite the UK government's rhetoric, is not limited to 40%) can leave some workers with less than 16% of their earnings to pass to their children, and many taxpayers are now voting with their feet and leaving the workplace or even going to work in other countries.

Birmingham Fathers Take to the Streets in Wake of Teen’s Murder
Homburg replied to Social Media's topic in World News
There's no point in arresting suspected offenders in the UK as the British Criminal Justice System has no prison space available and so sentencing for convicted offenders is mostly limited to "community orders" which are laughed off, suspended sentences which are ignored or fines which remain unpaid. Import the World's criminal classes and crime is rampant plus the prisons fill up. Who'd have thought? Clearly not the UK Authorities who failed to plan for the increase in prison space needed. -
Michigan State Rep sterilized herself to protest Trump
Homburg replied to connda's topic in Off the beaten track
Michigan State Rep sterilized herself What a public spirited lady! Let's hope that this approach to protest catches on with all those ladies who share her politics. It would also be helpful if such ladies were to always wear a badge at all times to publicise their protest so that they can be kept away from employment in education. -
Can Foreign Tourists in Pattaya Expect Fair Legal Treatment?
Homburg replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Everyone in Thailand will receive the legal treatment that they pay for. Ask Tony, he is no doubt an expert on the subject. -

Thai PM Considers Easing Alcohol Sales Rules to Boost Tourism
Homburg replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Alcohol sales are banned on election days, so voters remain sober. We are living with the result of that approach. Perhaps it's time to repeal that law for the future elections? -
All Aboard the Bare Necessities: Nude Cruise Opens Bookings for 2026

I've never been tempted to take a cruise, but now........ .....I'm even less tempted! -
The behaviour of these nurses is a symptom of a far deeper issue, which is that they not only felt that it was appropriate to display their hatred, they felt comfortable doing so - comfortable seeking validation of their hatred from their community. The deeper problem is importing members of a death cult which instructs, encourages and even incentivises its followers to kill all non-believers and expecting somehow that these followers will somehow change their culture, beliefs, attitudes and intentions because they have changed their geographical location. This death cult is a cancer which will consume its host country wherever it is permitted to flourish. It cannot simply be contained by prosecuting obvious aberrant attitudes such as those on display here. Prosecution will drive the problem underground, but will otherwise change nothing. As the saying goes: You can take Mo out of Mogadishu, but you cannot take Mogadishu out of Mo.... The World's "enlightened" liberals decry China's reported approach of attempting to "re-educate" followers of this death cult. China's approach may or may not be successful, or even acceptable, but at least China is confronting the problem rather than pretending that it does not exist.

Thailand Slips in Global Corruption Ranking for 2024

It is very disappointing to read that Thailand has fallen in the global corruption rankings, but I expect that a few well placed Brown Envelopes would improve that! -

How, in any supposedly civilised society, can a movement which tells, incites and even incentivises its followers to kill all non-believers be considered to be a religion? But the bigger problem is the point-blank refusal by Western governments to recognise the "religion of peace" for what it truly is and take effective steps to keep their citizens safe. There are so many killings now that, without effective protection from their governments, citizens in many Western countries may start to rise up against those they see as potential killers and that would be disastrous for law and order. Western governments need to recognise the extreme urgency of effectively dealing with this.

Of course he's still alive! To paraphrase Agent K - "He's not dead, he just went home." The truth is out there!
