  1. I do not think this is all Cambodias fault. I think Thailand is pushing them as well. I think the Thaksin family is also behind it all. The Thai generals finally have a target other than local civilians so at least that is a good thing.
  2. Even if she testifies who can say whether it is the truth or lies to make headlines to get her released from prison?
  3. Yes... I would agree with your general consensus. Typical though since most Thais see Cambodians as less than human and only good for menial labor.
  4. Seems like Thailand has got a lot more snitches now telling them when to expect drugs to pass through their checkpoints. I do not know if the drug dealers in Thailand are as smart as the ones from Bolivia and Columbia. They use the tactic of giving the officials details about someone smuggling to keep the police busy arresting that person and all the while, 5 other smugglers pass through the checkpoints at that time. Lose one shipment and keep 5. This keeps the police happy and the drug dealers. I really do not think the main dealers are losing so many shipments as they are sending out.
  5. Let's hope the lower tourism reduces prices and lowers the value of the Baht.
  6. Water testing twice a year seems weak and would not help anyone should the levels increase. Thailand should be doing tests on the water monthly to assess any increases in toxicity. At the very least they should test the waters quarterly.
  7. because Thailand rejected the ceasefire. As well as telling all countries to stay out of their business and let the Thais find a solution.
  8. Yeah... even the numbers here in this OP got doubled. I think it is mostly because Thailand needs to show more damage given than Cambodia shows. But currently the body count is about 50k... about 95% are Cambodian civilians.
  9. I think the hookers would adapt as long as they are still getting paid. Perhaps they may even like the Cambodians more with the smaller peckers and quick release
  10. seriously? She recruited those young girls.. You really think she should be released? Also, I would not put too much weight into anything she claims behind closed doors anymore.. Any testimony she gives is most likely false unless she can provide some proof showing those people she names. She is a millionaire who is now in prison for the next 20 years. IF someone comes to her offering. her a deal to be released early if she drops some big names of who participated in doing things to young girls and boys. She will come up with the most famous and most popular names possible just to ensure her release. It would not matter to her whether there is any truth to it or not simply because they are not demanding proof. She will do or say anything just to get out of prison to return to her lavish lifestyle.
  11. Yeah... there are so many... What gets me the most is they are believing everything the Thai news is telling them. Yet, most every other topic discussed they are doubtful or skeptical about what is put in the news.
  12. There is already sufficient proof Obama has done all the Trump has said. The question only remains is if the DOJ files charges or not.
  13. This story has all the makings of a Democratic propaganda story. There is not one thing factual being told in it and all is made to insinuate guilt for Trump. . Even the Wall Street story is contradictory.
  14. I can not wait for Hun Sen to retaliate to Thaksins admonitions . I really hope he releases the scandals about Thaksin and his family in his retaliation.
  15. I would have to agree. Most tourists do not care where they cross the roads. These smart crossings seem like just another waste of money Pattaya seems to be good at. Rather than addressing the real problems they find ways to skirt the issues. Can any explain to me how a tourist is going to know what the lights mean when lit or flashing? Or are they putting instructions in multiple languages to read as you are pushing the crossing button?
  16. What a load of cr--. These changes had begun already in the past 2 or 3 months. It has nothing to do with the conflict in Cambodia. It does have a lot to do with the tariffs Trump will enact soon if Thailand does not keep rejecting deals offered by the US.
  17. Yeah... those high prices can not be from Trump. The years all belong to Biden and Obama.
  18. It started because Thailand decided some temple was theirs. Even though previously the world court said it belonged to Cambodia years ago. Thailand wants it for their tourism. Then minor conflicts with military that Thailand sent there to lay claim to the land and temple. Then Cambodia began sending some of their soldiers there and more minor conflicts between armies. Then Thailands army stated they would put a fence around the temple to take control of it. Then Thailand sent more troops to the area and began patrols. a couple of the patrols stepped on land mines placed by Cambodia (supposedly on their land side) During all this borders were being closed by both sides. Then there is a grey area who fired first that has sent this fighting into full force. But so far Thailand has sent an fighter jet over Cambodia to drop some bombs and send some missiles into Cambodia and more small arms fighting. Embassy personnel evacuated and the Thais told to leave Cambodia.. This has nothing to do with cutting power and closing scam centers in Cambodia.

  20. I am confused about all of your comments here that actually see Trump as a pedifile and think he is guilty of participating in Epsteins child trafficking. EVery photo of the 2 together, every comment of Trump being his buddy, Every news release about his name in papers, have failed to show Trump saw or was with Epstein past 1990s. The child that made a case against Epstein was in 2005. She would only just been born in the 1990s. There is no reports on how long Epstein used children for trafficking also. All investigations began after 2005. Nothing to show Trump was with him ever during the time Epstein was doing this that got him arrested. But there are many reports about Prince Andrew with Epstein during that time.
  21. Is it even legal for 1 or 2 offices to make their own rules on how to distribute licenses to drive? I would think the transportation office would have to make such a decision and it would apply to all provinces. Not just Pattaya and Rayong. Something is wrong with this if it is real.
  22. Yeah, I read about that also. Even sharing something like that is an arrestable offence. I read that when they come, they come in force as well. Not just one or 2 officers to arrest you.
  23. I agree with this. It all comes down to real hard evidence and facts. Without it, they will walk away unscathed and this Epstein and Obama thing will be swept under the table or a fall guy will take the blame for it all. One thing i am surprised the media is not saying anything about. Was Biden in on this scandal as well given that he was the VP and would also be an active participant in these things.
  24. Wrong! It has already been talked about and researched and presidents are only immune to decisions and actions made in their primary duty as the president. they are not immune to actions they did that was not in the capacity of their duty as president.
