  1. If you look on the Pai Facebook page (Real Pai Family) you can see there is yet another issue involving the defacement of public signs with Hebrew stickers (leaving no question as to who put them there, as they are in Hebrew). For some reason the Israelis seem to have chosen what used to be the most peaceful idyllic locations on the tourist trail! It seems somewhat ironic! Sorry picture doesn't show but you can see on their facebook page
  2. Low bile acid level is another cause.
  3. Price of chillies ,lowest in 10 years. Not really worth harvesting. (Link is in Thai but you should be able to translate). https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1DTV2zx1gW/
  4. "Local" , as in all the way from New Zealand !!!!! https://ismfoodproducts.com/portfolio-item/daily-rich-instant-full-cream-milk-powder/
  5. So much for "buy local" !!! https://thainewsroom.com/2025/04/26/dairy-farmers-forced-to-dump-milk-after-private-company-stops-buying/

  7. At last someone has spotted the real problem.
  8. A lot that I watch have already been mentioned, so I will add this for a bit of fun! It doesn't come more English than this! Rimski and Handkerchief
  9. From what I've seen it's mostly not the budget travellers who leave the trash. In my area 10-15 years ago you never used to see trash in the streets and there were only budget type accommodations along with residential houses. Fast forward to 2025 and you have pretty much no true budget accommodation left but you have about 20 mid range to high end hotels just in my neighbourhood. The amount of rubbish is ridiculous. I find it interesting when people say "they want big spenders here". Who exactly are they? From what I can see almost none of the hotels are run by local people. Personally I don't feel good about lining the pockets of out of town (mostly BKK) or overseas investors. I would prefer that my money benefits the local community.
  10. They must have all known each other because otherwise he (Yutthana) would not have known he had killed the woman's husband. If you are from another area you are not aware who is husband and wife unless you have been stalking or making previous in depth enquiries.
  11. If you want any of this to work you will probably have to stop eating any processed food and sugar, and most carbohydrates. Bromelain is mostly found in pineapple stalks (crunchy bits) and you will probably need "industrial quantities" of turmeric.
  12. Years ago a friend of mine was helping at a party attended by Buzz Aldrin and asked him in person "Buzz, what was it like on the moon?" His answer, "I can't believe I was there." Make of it what you will!! She said there were rumours at the time (in the late 70's) that it was staged, so the answer wasn't exactly helpful.
  13. So in other words, prominent positions are often held by Nazi syympathisers. I think that is what I said. I am no fan of Elon Musk and for me the jury is still out when it comes to Kennedy.
  14. “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
  15. Post WW2 history seems to have been shaped more than we realise by ex-Nazis and their accomplices. Even a brief look at the history of the "Ratlines" can suggest this. WEF history shows that Klaus Schwab came from a family that seems to have collaborated with the Nazis on a large scale. On the one hand we defeated the Nazis but on the other hand we didn't, so it is hardly a "conspiracy theory" to suggest that the WEF might have nefarious motives. https://pearl-hifi.com/11_Spirited_Growth/11_World_Politics/09_Fascism/Schwab_Family_Values.pdf
  16. As far as we know WEF is funded by large global corporations. So as it stands, this is essentially meddling by the global private sector in government affairs worldwide. Elected government officials should be accountable to their electorate and not to a number of private global enterprises. The WEF is essentially forwarding the concept of corporate communism, where business elites worldwide have power over the masses without being confined by any national borders.
  17. Wrong, wrong and couldn't be more wrong.
  18. Did you ever stop to consider that I might actually be a Thai female??!!
  19. I didn't actually say that she was underperforming , I said "according to the criteria that had been mentioned" (not by me)....
  20. I wonder why Ken Lin https://fundselectorasia.com/thailand-is-the-jewel-for-invescos-lin/ and Amornthep Sachamuneewongse https://satiapp.co/422-2/ have also been chosen by WEF alongside the PM. What have they done ?
  21. According to that criteria she hasn't been "honoured" or "recognised". She has been picked out because she is underperforming and is not up to the job. Having a current Prime Minister being coached in this way, is overt foreign interference.
  22. Maybe Ursula and Klaus got customised elephant pants. (Even those were not her idea, they've been around since the 1990's) Don't forget Kier Starmer adopted "change" as his slogan. Change is not always a good thing. When the WEF is involved it is definitely not a good thing.
  23. One of the first lessons I learned in Thailand; if there is trouble and a person returns to their vehicle (even a motorbike, especially lifting the seat), you make a run for it or get behind something. This might be the time they go and retrieve their gun.
  24. Thailand's tourism has more or less been taken over by corporations and investors. Many of these groups bought /leased property at high prices and are determined to make a profit. Marketing strategies and media promote conspicuous wealth because it brings them returns; they want you to spend more. In the past Thai tourism was mostly based on family/local providers and didn't need such a large return on investment , now (in the major destinations) it is driven by KPI etc. I have been involved in Thai tourism for many years and the quality of tourists has dropped dramatically. The Thai govt. is aiming for mass tourism even if they are not outwardly admitting it. A lot of people are falling into the trap of believing just because people spend more they are of a higher quality.
