  1. Of course they don’t want to pay a fee to help traffic control. They will definitely complain about it, but don’t want to be part of the solution. What a great survey. Pay more or get a reduction on garbage disposal. They’ll just have to take the trash out daily now and fill other people’s bins with trash. Unfortunately Change is not a Thai style of thinking. 💭
  2. Well theses two nurses should get free flights for their ability to help people in distress while flying. Good job 👏
  3. 5-Free policy 😂🤣 Maybe 3
  4. I suggest they go to walking street to a Russian go go bar. You’d think the name would tip them off but I’m sure they have already received their envelopes. Thailand needs these construction workers because most of the Thais don’t want to do it. The employers should be held responsible and accountable.
  5. I’m not a drug dealer or runner so it doesn’t really affect me, but if you do just watch your back. No I don’t have any sympathy for drug dealers.
  6. Maybe he’s just trying to give them a message. Don’t leave your keys in your vehicle when you’re not in there. Considering this was not the first time I guess some people are a bit slow.
  7. Not even close to Fentanyl but still can be harmful. The government should be responsible for any damage caused by the Chinese people that are let in freely for and extended stay that scam people from call centers, produce dangerous products, sell vapes in general or operate/fund illegal businesses. They let them in so they should be responsible.
  8. It’s in good spirit with the Christmas season for the foreign visitors, expats and Thais. I’m sure it brings smiles to many people. Good for him. All of the stores and malls have Christmas trees and lights up. No reason he can’t dress as Santa.
  9. I’m not sure if this causes her death. They should have done an autopsy but didn’t consider it necessary at the time. It looks like a very odd massage. Not sure if that is what the fortune teller told her to do. She should be blamed as well. The young lady was autopsied and it was found that her death was not associated with the massage. I’m sure it can happen and don’t condone unlicensed massage therapy but to try to say it was because he heard about the other story makes me think there is an alternative motive.
  10. Well I’m sure they have plenty of unemployed people who would take the jobs.
  11. In a related judicial outcome, Thanayut, the driver of the red Mazda initially sought by police, received a suspended two-month sentence, a 15,000 baht fine, and a six-month driving licence suspension for evading a checkpoint. This is exactly why some continue to do it. Slap on the wrist, a fine and 😂🤣😂 suspended license. As if people here even care about having a license. Nope. Small fine as well.
  12. At least the Chinese and Korean people are willing to work together. Thailand definitely needs to stop this easy entry and long stay. They will just start up a new center with a new group for their 3 month stay.
  13. Many people ask if they will ever learn and the answer can be seen every day on the roads. A big No. they are just coming up with better stories.
  14. This is not newsworthy. We all know what is happening here.
  15. Sure they will monitor it without a wall 😉Kinda sounds like any promises from Thailand.
  16. Hopefully they will find him and get him help. It’s very difficult to get physiatrist help in Thailand that really helps, not just medicates.
  17. I’m sure the police will enjoy their new ride.
  18. I applaud the man for his donation to the charity on his wife’s behalf. If you can’t afford to donate then don’t. If you can afford it and don’t have a heart then you have no reason to comment. No reason to bash good hearted people who care about others, not just themselves.
  19. Sure. He was going to step down and let his son run. I don’t believe a word of it. Just a better excuse to make sure he doesn’t get charged with anything. He has too much power and influence.
  20. I surely hope they don’t give him back the cats. It’s obvious he is a bit of a nutcracker.
  21. Sad for her and her family, but why would they pen them up if they can’t force them away. Obviously they have lost too much of their space to the tourists. No place is 100% safe. Just put up warnings and information on how to stay away, or get away from them. If you decide to go trekking in their natural habitat you take the risk.
  22. We will just have to wait and see if he has enough money for all of the brown envelopes. He got caught and is now getting delusional. I’m sure there are a few people that are worried that he’s going to try to pin it on them.
  23. Is there a new Matrix movie coming soon? 😂🤣 In this world you can’t say never or always. Things are always changing which or without us.
  24. The people from India share everything. The people from Malaysia are just doing border runs to get some stuff cheaper than at home and stay around the border. Chinese are bussed to Chinese/Thai operated businesses and the locals are saving up, what little they have, for the next festival or concert. They have abandoned the western tourist industry for numbers sake and this is what happens.
  25. I guess that they just believed them and didn’t read the contract. How could they possibly think that this was a legitimate solution? I think the company is still responsible, but buyer beware as always. If it sounds too good to be true, it is.
