Teenage boy abandoned on roadside after he faints on Bangkok public bus
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
They have such light penalties for this kind of behavior, it’s no wonder they are not afraid to do it. Sad -
Chinese tourists shy away from Thailand amid scams and safety concerns
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Their economy sucks and the majority don’t have the money to travel anymore. That’s the truth. Not a scary movie scaring them away. Although, if that helps, I don’t mind it. They should start showing it in more theaters there. -
Ask your friend for more info and come back to us. Then we may have some good suggestions for them.

Thai health minister backs cannabis ban, citing surge in teen usage
jcmj replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I’m not against it, but I do question why they can sell it close to schools while they ban alcohol sales near schools. Doesn’t make much sense. I agree that all they need to do is card people, but that would take work and math so doubt that will happen. Plus little mom and pop shops will sell anything to anyone. My son got busted at school when he was 11 for having a cigarette he bought from a local shop next to his school. -
Where did you find insurance for around 3,000 dollars after 70 years old? Mine went up to 550,000 baht, so I’m now self insured. Also they don’t cover pre existing conditions on any policy I’ve seen, or they will just pay a small portion for that.

Phumtham welcomes convicted former PM Thaksin as PM’s chief advisor
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I think he’d be a good advisor. He had some great ideas and was pro foreigners. Sure a bit corrupt, but aren’t they all? As long as they just listen to his advice on what worked and don’t take it as gospel. -
Dense Plankton Bloom Threatens Fisheries in Chonburi
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Sure. Just what I wanted to do when I go to the beach. Swim with the dead fish floating around me. Sure it’s safe. Maybe they can just scoop up the dead fish and offer nightly fish fry’s. ???? -
Hell, my doctor suggested that I try marijuana for my chronic pain, but I still haven’t found one that helps and doesn’t make me feel loopy. I don’t like the high feeling I just want the pain to go away.

It’s time for US to do more business in Thailand : Thai PM
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Why would anyone want to invest in a country that hates foreigners and treats them like 3rd class citizens. If the US treated the Thais like they treat us here, they would be up in arms. Same, same, but different. -
Former Thai PM Thaksin’s parole could be as early as February
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Well, I guess I’m in the minority, but I like him and what he achieved for the foreigners while he was in office. He at least wanted us here and made it pretty easy to get a long term visa. Sure he screwed a few things up, but tell me one pm that hasn’t. -
I am wondering what happens to my ss that I paid into for over 15 years and unfortunately left after my last job right as the pandemic started so I couldn’t come back and even get my monthly payments or set up continuing payments online because that’s only for Thais. Can I still go to the ss office when I’m 55 and claim the ss I paid? I’m sure someone else has been through this.

They really need to do something about the price of unleaded petrol. That seems to keep climbing up so now more people are buying vehicles that use diesel.

I sure hope that you are keeping it well wrapped up when having sex these days. It’s not a nice gift to give anyone as you know all too well yourself.

Dengue Fever in Thailand 2023, and some tips to avoid bites
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Thank goodness the mosquitoes don’t like me. Rarely ever do I remember getting bitten. I guess I’m one of the lucky few. -
Close call at Patong Beach: Tourist’s life saved by vigilant lifeguards
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Why do these dumb asses decide to swim when there’s a clear Red Flag warning? Thanks to the lifeguards who look out for these idiots and risk their lives to save the light heads. Can’t fix stupid, but those lifeguards should be paid well. -
Bangkok hotel’s ‘loo-natic’ layout leaves guest in stitches

Maybe a new trend coming. -
Buddhist temple warns good people can go to hell for using life support
jcmj replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Well I guess that’s why they allow booze, drugs, sex and hoards of money at the temples these days. Don’t want to be too good. ???? -

You aren’t going to win the race if you don’t get pro active and try something new. -
Alleged Pattaya Real Estate Scammer Arrested in Bangkok
jcmj replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Some people are just too damn greedy and think that they have a few more months to scam a few more people. Seems to happen a lot here. Can’t fix stupid.
