Lol> Yes! I want my 3 minutes back - that was pushing it. Why would a customer stand there for 6.5 minutes arguing with a cashier? What was the point? From what I saw I'd say the customer was equally at fault here. Why would any cashier be expected to deal with that?
"the customer is always right"

Who in his right mind would turn off an idling (but still noisy 'cos of an open exhaust) Harley belonging to a Hells Angel?

Not trying to make excuses for this woman, but my experience with dating sites is - don't expect that your profile is removed after you cancel your membership. The sites will continue to show your profile in order to boost their numbers (of people on their site).
Getting them to delete it can be quite a job.
Make sure you keep a record of your login details.

My Thai friend went to the UK about two years ago to study. She said that sometimes when she told people where she was from they'd ask about/talk about the sex industry and ladyboys, etc (don't ask me why but they did). Anyway, she said it was impolite and that people shouldn't talk about it. Right or wrong, I asked her that if a visitor comes to Thailand and sees a lot of prostitution and ladyboys, etc, should they talk about it when they go home? She said they shouldn't.
I explained the difference in cultures. We all know about Thai culture, but in British culture, as with many cultures around the world, people will talk openly. They will criticise and mock, etc. You can't expect people to follow your rules when they go home because it benefits you. Again, right or wrong, if you want someone to think well of you, act well. I don't care about prostitution or ladyboys. People can do as they please. But if locals feel it's embarrassing and don't wanna address it, you will sometimes get a dose of the real world. You can't have you cake and eat it.
It's like when my brother messaged my missus to ask if she could get him some fake Ray Bans. Her first reaction was, "does your brother think Thailand is just full of fake goods?". I had to tell her that I don't know what my brother thinks of Thailand. But he knows you can openly buy fake Ray Bans. If you don't want people to think you can openly buy fake Ray Bans then don't openly sell fake Ray Bans.
Ha ha, luv it! I bet you weren't the top of the charts for suggesting they face reality!

Great thing, get rid of those junky dwellings. It's a 21st century city, not a 19th century village.
The authorities do however, as suggested previously, need to control the usage of the new walkways. Going by recent history that will be their difficulty.

Don’t discount the placebo effect. It has been demonstrated countless times to be as effective as pharmaceuticals. It demonstrates the inherent ability of the body to repair itself. All one needs to do is beleive what you are doing is going to work for you ... sceptics need not apply!
Works with pills, not hammers!

Are you a farmer in Thailand?
No. I was a farmer in Oz and take an interest in farming wherever I happen to be.
Have visited farms in Thailand (NE) , seen their practices, talked to them, read about farming in Thailand.
Of course there is progress being made, but some areas are not seeing that.
Small holdings, lack of education, lack of govt involvement, many aspects need work.
Are you suggesting all is well? -
Ask any American to point out Thailand on a map and they might say "You mean Taiwan?" and they couldn't point out that either.

Stunning advice....thanks
I apologise for such a stupid comment. However it does in fact reflect my experience. I bought too many tailored shirts a while back in BKK and these days they just hang unused and dejected in my wardrobe. ☹️

Was she born in Thailand? Does she speak Thai? If yes, yes, then I guess she is qualified to enter the contest.
If she's had facial or body enhacing surgery then she should not be allowed to enter.

Quickly clears the field and is cheap.
Kills weeds, including those resistant to herbicide.
Kills slugs and other pests.
Can reduce nitrogen tie-up.
But what do the farmers know? They only been doing that since people lived in caves.
Agreed a long held practice, but times have changed. Yields are down and chemical fertiliser use is rampant.
Fact is farmers don't know how to manage changing times. Old practices don't work forever.

Whats easier-cheaper, ploughing or burning?
There lies the answer......

You are correct in that it's the Thai way. However, education into farming practises would show farmers here that in the long run it saves them money if they retain and use that valuable natural resource by nourishing the soil (giving better productivity) and reduces costs (don't need so much expensive fertilizer).
'In the long run' is the problem for the Thai mentality though, unfortunately. Agricultural practices are apparently not something the Thai govt is interested in. Yeild per hectare in Thailand is low compared to other countries.

Male genetalia.
Isn't male genetalia the reason for the existence of modern Pattaya?

The EIA report is of course just window dressing, as they are in most parts of the world.
However I'm looking forward to riding on that train one day.
My gf living in Korat is sweating on it, she's got shopping expeditions to BKK planned already.
Fortunately for me the money she'll be using will be her own hard earned, so not to worry!

300,000 ฿ doesn't sound like much, especially when "commissions" have been taken.

They must have retired from the trade now.
Wrong. They are the parents of the current crop of pests.

"The labour permanent secretary told the US official that Thailand is determined to solve problems over child labour, forced labour and human-trafficking."
Does this include Cambodian babies used by beggars in BKK?
I hope so.

What bothers me about all this build up of equipment is maintenance.
So Thailand builds a drone, and who figures out the maintenance schedule and then writes the manual?
Given that maintenance is undeniably a weak point in the Thai psychology, how is this all gonna end?
What is undertrained Somchai going to do when he is required to read and digest these probably inadequate manuals?
If you see one of these drones in the sky, start praying that it passes you by.
