  1. The problem is they still don’t want to address Mental health. Even my Thai insurance will not cover anything to do with mental issues, even for a short time. It’s an illness that can happen to anyone and they need to treat it as an illness.
  2. Happens on every beach all over the world. Drunk beach sex. Nothing new except the smartphone cameras.
  3. To be honest, a week was way too short to get all of the information, data and experts(hopefully independent) to figure out what the factors were behind the collapse. If they do it in a month I’d expect a much more in-depth analysis, but I’m afraid that TIT and it won’t happen as it would in most other developed countries where brown envelopes and loss of face aren’t in the equation. And the death and injury pay is ridiculous. I sure hope someone steps up and gets that increased. That’s a slap in the face to the workers and they wonder why they can’t get enough to work construction and the poor Myanmar people come and do it. I’ll bet the numbers don’t even include them as they were probably not even on the books. Sad for them.
  4. I sure hope they get this BS sorted out soon. It’s causing way too much stress and turmoil. Just make a 3rd category for transgender and non binary people and let them battle each other and let the men and women out of this.
  5. Well they have the license plate so go fetch them, fine them and deport them with a black list. That’s the only way these types of people will learn.
  6. We all knew this was coming. Pushing for maintenance 555 that will take some time , new laws and oversight.
  7. Damn. How could they even breathe in that area of water. I don’t care where they dock the boat but they should be smart enough to know when it smells like Sh** tastes like sh** , they are probably floating in it.
  8. I see just as many foreigners running through them as I do Thais. Especially when there are no lights with a countdown. Sad but true.
  9. Meanwhile, the private sector’s towering high-rises, hotels, condos, and bustling shopping malls fell into the second group, each independently required to run their own post-quake checks. I’m sorry, but I certainly wouldn’t trust this at all. Independent, by who and by when? Only 112 have done it so far doesn’t seem like they are really concerned about getting the buildings checked. I hope that they follow up, because we all know too well how things work here. Maybe most are fine, but it only takes one and the story changes.
  10. Crazy. Stupid laws for reducing sentences in half just because you admit it, which I’m sure was the first thing that the lawyer or police told them to do.
  11. Aww. I’m sure he’s just upset he will be transferred and back on desk duty
  12. Nope. Same here. 13,500 last month and almost 21,000 this month. One of the downsides of owning a large home.
  13. I don’t really care for an audience when I’m taking a piss. They should be more concerned about the women trying to get a look in.
  14. Surprised that it held that many people. Lucky for them they were almost all in the water or else it would have been a total bloodbath. All comes down to the same issue with so many accidents happening here. No maintenance or upkeep and cutting corners to save money and make more money.
  15. If they can send an Amber Alert to all cellphones in the US in seconds then I guess Thailand needs to contact someone there or in any country that has this in place already. You can’t tell me that every mobile service can send a text to all of their customers about a bill or a promotion, but can’t figure out how to send an alert???
  16. They need a lot longer than a week to figure out exactly what happened. Doing it this fast just makes them look more ignorant about how things should be investigated. They need to take as much time as necessary to collect the information from all of the evidence from the people involved with the building and outsourcing the work to the materials and construction companies. No way this could be done properly in a week, but TIT. They need someone to blame. We know who it won’t be.
  17. How much are they charging these people?
  18. Well she said it herself. She doesn’t have a filter and that’s exactly what got her into this situation. Everyone has an opinion on everything, but most people know when to keep their opinions and comments to themselves. If she didn’t argue on social media and force her issues on others in very dark ways, especially flouting that she can’t be filtered, she may still have her job. I don’t want to believe that she would treat any patients differently, but she’s kinda made me wonder. I think that was enough for her peers to be wary and not take the chance.
  19. People are rattled after the first quake and will be highly sensitive for a while. Especially since there’s no real warning system to tell them otherwise.
  20. Why do we see so many news articles from Pattaya Mail the day after they posted it, on here?
  21. I’ll bet most people that were buying it knew it was fake, but it was in a bottle and box that they could show off to their friends. Same as the Rolex watches and designer bags.
  22. Ooh. I didn’t even think about when rainy season hits and if we have any really big wind and rain storms people are definitely going to be panicking. Don’t blame them considering the warning system won’t be up a running “correctly “ until July.
  23. I bet they will be out testing their warning system, considering maintenance is not a top concern here. If something did happen, and they didn’t go off, there would be some serious issues for Thailand that they would have a hard time dealing with.
  24. All of my friends, both Thai and Foreign, never got any alert. My Thai friends are more pissed off about the fact that it won’t be up a running correctly until July. So we aren’t the only ones upset about a useless system.
