I haven't seen anyone here being able to shut their piehole for more than a minute (unless sleeping), so good luck with that..

 

Well I have found the secret to stopping my wife from moaning all the time. She didn't speak a single word to me in English or Thai in over a week! Silence is golden.

Anutin must be laughing at all the comments. Seriously. This guy is a powerhouse in this Admin and calls the shots. We are guests here. If you don’t feel welcome, why stay? Not taking up for him or anyone, but he’s well within his rights to “ choose”, same as other countries are doing. 

And tourists are free to choose whether or not to come to Thailand. I think I know which they will choose. Anutin is in for a rude awakening when his 'plan' spectacularly backfires.

Phase 106: This phase overrides all other phases and resets the freedom for people to a minimum. You are still allowed to visit the toilet if necessary, but if you enter without face mask you risk a fine of 100.000 baht or a maximum of 5 years in jail or both.

I guess it would be a good idea for some people to wear a face mask whilst on the toilet!! ????????

This is the end of the end of the great Thai experience. Everything must be sanitized in a New World Order... Everyone must comply with the "New Normal"... A dark time in history. Globally we are being further enslaved... so very sad for our children's future. 

Spot on.

Do a bit of painting here and there. The bamboo was the most recent done during the lockdown. And the Buddha was a new year gift for my wife. 

 

I'm impressed.

OK- made a deal and sent a deposit- I should have my red CX-5 next week. 

I love the red Mazdas. I have the Mazda 2, but when I bought it in 2018, they wouldn't even throw in the SD card for navigation. They wanted a ridiculous sum of around 15,000 baht, so I use the wife to navigate instead, although she frequently confuses her left with her right. ????

I fully agree with you. If you look back carefully at what I've written you'll see that. Sorry if I haven't made myself clear.

Well, that and the fact that my watches are orders of magnitude less expensive!

I really don't care one way or the other.

Maybe you don't, but I think that there are many people that do care about the current situation the world faces. I will go through the official stats again.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

362,023 covid-19 deaths.

https://deathmeters.info/

Shows the TOP 20 worldwide causes of death for 2020, live figures. At 6:30am this morning the total was 17,368,225 and covid-19 appeared nowhere on the list. At the bottom of their page they state that the source of their statistics is based on WHO: CAUSE-SPECIFIC MORTALITY figures. They also state that the TOP 20 covers almost 70% of total deaths occurring in the World every day.

Even if worldometers figures are correct, that would only place them 16th on their list. 

So the question to be asked is, where is the pandemic? And why is the world suffering lockdown? Based on these figures, the 'official' narrative has to be questioned and the powers that be made to tell us the truth about their future agenda for 99% of all humanity.

Whilst de-cluttering, I came across this copy of the '12 Core Values of Thais', as announced by The Head of the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) dated the 13th October 2014, which makes interesting reading.

The question is, how well do you think they're achieving these goals?

12 Core Values of Thais

Announced by

The Head of the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO).

1. Cherish the nation, religion and HM the King.

2. Be honest, sacrificed, patient and have a superior ideology for the public.

3. Be obligated to parents, guardians and teachers.

4. Always seek knowledge and be studious, both directly and indirectly.

5. Maintain good Thai cultures and traditions.

6. Be principled, truthful, well-disposed to people and big-hearted.

7. Properly learn and understand the democratic constitutional monarchy.

8. Be organised, disciplined and law-abiding and esteem the elderly.

9. Be conscious, intelligent, proficient and circumspect by following HM the King's speeches.

10. Live according to HM the King's sufficiency economy principles, make saving for spending in the difficult times, have adequate supply for use, but give and trade for the surplus and be prepared to extend the business if ready to doo and have good immunity.

11. Have grit and brawn, resist the evil subconscious mind or desires and be ashamed and afraid of religious sins.

12. Reflect on the benefits of the nation and public rather tan oneself.

Whilst decluttering, I came across this A4 copy headed '12 Core Values of Thais' announced by the The Head of the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO), dated the 13th October 2014.

The question is, how well are they doing in achieving these core values?

Of course. They're on line now. I just prefer to meet in the flesh before making a decision. Too easy to fake things on line.

Very true.

Not many will admit it, but a lot of us had the same experience.

Many of the girls really were gorgeous though that seems to have changed as the best lookers went internet and gave up the bars.

They're still around somewhere ....... just need a different approach I guess.

Currently 12,680 in this budget year, excluding Bangkok: https://hdcservice.moph.go.th/hdc/reports/report.php?source=formated/death298.php&cat_id=491672679818600345dc1833920051b2&id=b4ea22252bb533f3f9225dfcab83d43a

 

I've been monitoring it, started at about 100-120/d on 6th of May, now petering down to the previous yearly average of ~60/d. There was an above average period, perhaps the lockdown is also reducing other respiratory diseases, hard to tell. The HDC reports record the cause of death from death certificates, which in Thailand is quite unreliable.

 

Only valid comparison would be measuring total number of deaths to previous averages. I haven't bothered, as I'm already quite convinced the numbers are "selected", but the lockdown is still doing what it's supposed to do. Problems will arrive after they ease the measures and the test&tracing network is not efficient and they'll be forced to use their hand picked "confirmed" cases as index cases, or the whole thing would blow up in their faces.

Well done.

They are already at it, full on imperialism:

Almost as if planned.

The world's democracies need to stand up to the CCP's expansion policy to rule the world before it's too late. They need to be made to pay financial compensation for all the devastation they have caused throughout the world, before resuming trade with them. We do not want to live in a world based on the Chinese Communist model.

Both of our links are dated 27th May. The number of deaths up until now on my link would place it in the top 20 of the list you linked to. Why isn't it there? It should be, around six from the bottom and above liver cancer.

 

And 14 more ABOVE it. And you still believe the 'official' narrative?

The MSM cartel, coupled with this website's restrictive parameters render many non MSM links to the sin bin.

 

#mediascum & #scummedia are as good a place as any to start but rest assured the message is everywhere. There's a lot more detail too but I have kept this simple and to the point.

 

HTH

Well said.

You're not Prawit by any chance? No, silly me, he obviously doesn't cycle, run, row or swim.
