Enough money for a ticket to Thailand and then has to steal a bag. Makes you wonder who you're sitting next to on a plane....

What a tragedy it is Rhino horn made from the same material as hair and fingernails. No magic properties at all. 

They're falling over themselves with power. Pigging out on it.
Happy in the knowledge that a future govt will not have the power to chase them.

The trouble is so many of these dogs are "owned" Thai style with many foreign residents taking the same approach.  large fines or jail for these people who don't control their dogs or ditch them when they move or leave the country is the only solution but almost impossible to implement without massive changes in peoples attitudes and behavior.

Most posts above are right on the money, it is the job of the local authorities to get these dogs that are simply roaming the streets day and night off the street. This poor girl has been left traumatized and scarred physically as the authorities just say mai pen rai and don't bother to keep the streets clear.

It is another real marker of a 3rd world country to have dogs roaming around all parts, in and around schools, businesses, and even on busy roads. They're a disgrace, simple. They need to be either reunited with their owners or euthanized imho. I hope the young girl recovers and is handsomely compensated for what she has been through

 
So, we've all moved on and a new law was announced that passengers can not be carried in the back of a pick-up now.
 
The police will be doing their usual sterling work, so we are unlikely to see anything like the photo in the OP ever again.
 

looking at the link I cant find a translate button but I did see 320,000THB for the Continental GT - that is stupid expensive even dearer than what they are charging in oz - bit disappointing, nostalgia cant stretch that far 220/250 would have been more realistic, have to wait and see I guess

paying a premium for a ducati is par for the course, I have been buying and riding ducati's for 30years now not sure how much of a premium they could expect to charge for a 50 year old bike design - nostalgia can ony stretch so far I would think.
I know in Oz they are selling for about 8-10k depending on model which is getting up there considering what these things actually cost which from memory is about 3k oz $.
still be interesting to see when // if it happens.

 
You just zombied a 5 month old post.

Stuff like that is why I like Thailand- BECAUSE it isn't regulated up the ying yang like the place I come from. It's down to the individual as to what they do. None of the people on the back of that pickup HAD to be there- no chains that I can see.
Regulate the traffic and soon they'll be regulating everything and then it'll be just like back home and what would be the point of even bothering to go there?
The beaches used to be the thing for me, but now all the decent ones are ruined by concrete, so if they make it just like back home I wouldn't be going there anymore.

If you don't like the culture............................. and don't let the door slap your butt on the way out.

"In his posting, he called for the government to find the thief immediately otherwise the government might be regarded as being an accomplice in the theft."
Seems like a perfectly reasonable statement to me.
Guess that's why they want to nail him. Reasonable not welcome.

In other countries the charge of changing the plates would be quite serious, especially for a cop. For a start the car is therefore not registered which means no insurance.
In Thailand just a slap on the wrist.

I'm fearing the day I see boobs like those packed so tight the skin is actually gonna split . . .

Do you really want to waste peoples time reading this rubbish!

It's wrong . . . .

 
What was Prawit doing in London and why did he need a "big group of officials"?
 
What was accomplished with the "big group of officials"?
 
Who made up the "big group of officials"?
 
Who paid and how much did they pay for the "big group of official"?
 
These are more interesting questions than whether he met Thaksin.
 

Thai hospitals who are being forced to treat an increasing number of insured foreigners.
 
Now you lost me !

He is probably in Thailand safe from extradition. Interpol is being made a fool of. Could be in the home on Sukhumvit he went to after running down the police officer. Interpol cannot find him if he is safe at home in his home country.

I know on TV it is fashionable to knock the Thai justice system, but just look at the onerous conditions attached to their release.
 
They have to do 90 day reports!
 
And cannot leave the country, I assume unless they have a re-entry permit already.

Wonder if anyone will bring up the subject with Christian Horner ... That Ted Bloke might ....

I might get slated for this, but I'm worried he'll get off. I can't see how a murder charge can be proven. How will a prosecution lawyer 'prove' intent?
What was the motive? How can premeditated murder be shown to be his intention? Then, with the murder and attempted murder charges dropped, he's left with a drink driving charge only. Not much (if any) jail time for that.

3 & 4 star hotels are my favourites. In these you will! meet staff who are real people, although I must admit these days they tend to be from other neighbouring countries - practising your Thai with them doesn't work so well. Never really had the noise problem you refer to. Noise that does wake me up sometimes though is the early morning clip clop of high heels exiting down the corridor. . .

Gotta larf. "car MIGHT have been carrying former. . . ". And "SOLID evidence" - in the same report.
Doublespeak.
