You Trump haters will say anything whether true or not to make it seem like he could actually do this. You must be ignorant of the procedures needed to abolish parts or the constitution and of the voting rights and laws. Or perhaps you simply compare things to Thailand and have forgotten about what true democracy really is? The only power Trump has regarding laws voting is to Veto a request to change a law. He has no power to make it changed. This is done by Congress and Legislation... It takes large percentages of votes to approve something like that and votes done by different entities. Each of those have their first concern about what their respective citizens want. What you are suggesting would surely create a Civil War.

Thailand and China to Expedite Free Visa Talks
thesetat replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Doesn't anyone remember the last time Thailand offered free Visa to Chinese? They did the same thing then by asking China to offer the same for the Thais. As i recall Thailands request was refused as will happen again this time. So this is a free trip to the upper echelon to visit China for a wasted meeting when China will just refuse it again. -
COVID-19 infections rising, public advised to wear face masks
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
That is only from one hospital. but the news is also only focusing on these numbers in their stories. What happened to the statistics from the other 1000 hospitals? the city, the country? Buddha forbid the actual numbers ever get released making Thailand look bad. Either way, Covid has become less than the flu in symptoms now. So why make such a big deal out of it. -
Chinese Tourist Exposes Nana Area as Potential Danger for Women
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Im not sure anyone else noticed. But in that photo.. The bars in the background do not have a single woman sitting with a man. Anyone who has ever been there knows these bars are full of women who place themselves next to you vying for a drink or something more substantial that pays them personally. Also, usually almost right where the photo was taken at the entrance to the Nana hotel parking there are always women standing who seek short time incomes. All of this seems to be missing in the photos.. Staged by the police there to show how good Nana is. haha... -
German documentary reignites sex tourism concerns for Thailand’s Pattaya
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
I do not think i will ever get over how the people who post this rubbish actually it is true. Anyone who has been to Pattaya knows and can easily see that after 2pm the sex life there becomes open and blatantly displayed. Everyone knows about the short time rooms above the girly bars. The same goes for the Thai massage places there who always seem to focus on the private parts to get you excited and then offer to provide you some relief. Everyone who goes out in the evening to clubs knows the Gogo girls hit the discos after work if they have not been bought out of the bar they work in. Haha someone quoted 50% tourism for sex in Pattaya but it is more like 85%. Even those nicely dressed businessmen who come there for meetings go out after for their fun with the sex industry there. It is only the government that downplays it all and covers it up. So how could one video clip damage their reputation about Pattaya as a sex tourism spot? Only because he was a perv who likes little kids and there was a place for him to get what he wanted. I would presume from other articles in Thailand that this happens in many places in the country. Pattaya should not feel their rep is damaged. Instead they should grasp their true identity and profit from it in a legal manner instead of under the table brown envelopes. And in doing so, the chances of underage prostitution would happen less. -
Bus accident in Prachuap Khiri Khan: 14 dead, 35 injured
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Hua Hin and Cha-Am News
what country do you live in? It has been proved rates of speed in Thailand can not be proved and can be changed at the convenience of the authorities. There is speculation online now that the driver was taking drugs though. It rammed the tree head on. I also heard there was a 3 year old the survived after flying through the window and the body count is more now. -
Tragic Love Triangle Ends in Double Fatality Shooting Incident
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Eastern Thailand News
Actually this love triangle tragedy serves as a somber reminder that Thais are unable to control their emotions and act out severely with disregard for other life when they lose something they want to claim is theres. Foreigners beware haha.. -
Why are fewer Chinese tourists visiting Thailand?
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
What a load of crock... Airfares to Thailand are not expensive and can still be bought at 4-5000 baht one way...This is only about 500 baht more than pre-covid. However, the cost for things in Thailand have increased exponentially and I am sure tourist packages reflect those higher prices. -
So, a final reply I would say I will live past the life expectancy Americans have but less than the average for normal Thais. haha.. As long as my heart is strong, have no worries or stress and a young median to relieve those things when I have them. I may even outlive the Thai life expectancy. haha..

First, looking at Thai life expectancy numbers surely does not give accurate figures. Given that so many Thai die from things other than old age. Then you have to ask are the foreigners living the same as an average old Thai man? Doubtful to say the least. Given my lifestyle, I would say life expectancy is somewhere in the middle between Thai averages and American averages. I think I can speak for most foreigners in Thailand who live here and enjoy the benefits or having a good income. We do not live the same as we would in America. Personally, I think if i was still in the USA I would be rotting away with some old lady next to me or in a retirement home or worse. Either way, I would be rotting away doing half the things I do here. In Thailand, I have sex daily still or more than that. I travel quite a bit. I dance and party with younger women. I have 3 kids not even 10 years old yet that also help to keep me active. So one has to ask. Is the lifestyle we chose while in Thailand helping us or hurting us? Personally, I think it is helping me to enjoy my life unlike the way it would be in the USA. I seriously doubt most Americans would have a wife and make babies with her at half my age. As I seriously doubt most Americans in Thailand would be seeking a woman aged over 60 to spend their futures with. I never felt younger than I do now while I was in the USA. In fact if you looked at my old passport photo prior to coming into Thailand I looked 15 years older than I do now. and that was taken 15 years ago.

Japan Signs Agreement to Purchase 5,000 Tons of Thai Bananas
thesetat replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I gave up buying bananas from street vendors hanging them outside. Last 2 times i bought them this way there were tiny white worms inside the bananas. I hope this deal does not backfire on Thailand from something stupid like that.... -
I wholeheartedly agree with your hypothesis. I have a Chinese friend who teaches in China and he stated to me that travel overseas has become a problem. They CCP had even recalled all passports from the teachers and have made it very difficult to obtain new ones now that Covid restrictions have stopped.

Thai-Chinese Meeting Addresses Negative Film Impact on Tourism
thesetat replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Would this not be called fake news? Since every year we are reading about each of these events happening in Thailand and to the Chinese people as well that come to Thailand as tourists. -
Respiratory illness outbreak ‘overwhelming’ China’s hospitals
thesetat replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
Given the WHO's track record I think it is safe to assume that nothing will come of it or be reported post haste without Chinas approval. The WHO already showed the world that China controls what is said and done and the WHO will just spread lies to cover their tracks. -
World’s biggest iceberg moving beyond Antarctic waters
thesetat replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
I am confused as to why they do not know the reason it is moving after getting stuck to the sea floor for almost 3 decades... What ever happened to the theory of the seas rising from the melting ice? Could that not be the reason it got unstuck after so many years?
