  1. Hehe.. I have to agree with you... Especially in Thailand.. I am not even sure teacher fits their description... On a side note though. I learned more outside the classroom than I did inside of it. And I was at the top of my class throughout most of my schooling days.
  2. Who was talking about cash? I said weapons and aid for the military.
  3. Good that there are some workers worht the money you pay them. But my reply before only stated what I have seen when out. not all of them though
  4. If you do not know by the results from the elections.. then maybe you need to go watch all the campaign promises that got Trump voted for...The ones he is doing now..
  5. Read about this yesterday in AP... At first it seems like this is something really strange. But the more i researched I found that there are many businesses that have their management require filing paperwork about what they accomplished that day or week. It is a good method to root out those who sit in their offices talking on the phones or playing FB or TikTok or VDO games. To make sure they are actually working for their salaries. I am not sure though if Trump can make such a request legally except for work done by federal employees and offices. Which he has just done. Their needs to be accountability in the government and this includes what the workers who are paid so well and with great benefits are doing. Can you imagine if that was done in Thailand? Everyone would be fired haha.... There is not a business or bar or government office I have walked into and not seen someone playing their phones.
  6. Finally some leeway for Trump to continue his plight to eradicate the overspending and wastefulness of the taxpayers money. Good decision on the Judges part. The people filing charges are grasping at any reason they can to stop Trump whether valid or not. Just to tie him up so they he will be so busy fighting the courts that he will give up and let things simmer where they have been with the old man before. The Dems are going to find that they need to rethink and support what the people want rather than fight and make excuses to try to stop him.
  7. 10k per leg is steep. SHould only be 1-2k... so if they are overcharging this then the laser is probably triple the normal cost.
  8. Almost everything in Lazada for electronics is fake. Sure they look real and they have the same parts as the ones from a manufacturer.. But not all is up to spec from those factories supplying them for fakes. Memory is doubled or tripled making you think it has a lot but really there is nothing. Faulty parts or so low quality that they break inside quickly or never work at all. The ads in Lazada will use the name of the product but ship you out a copycat one. Nothing you can do about it really except go buy one in the mall or at factory store. Be careful as I am sure you have read already in this OP from others. It may be cheaper but there is a reason for that...
  9. What tenure? He is not a politician now.. He is only the father of one.
  10. So the BBC got caught and most likely there was some bribery or payment to either BBC or the person filming it to promote dake news in a documentary. Since they had to get parents permission or have the parents present during filming then the also had to be aware of who the childs parents were. At the same time because of the parents position with the organization it is safe to think that the child was not in any position to be making a video about the suffering there. He would lead a guarded life.
  11. If it was brand new. Don't they get issued a red plate until the paperwork is done for a regular plate?
  12. Am not saying the foreigners should be arrested or questioned by the police. That is obvious. But the haircut shop owner also needs to be questioned. 500 baht for a man's haircut it the highest price i have ever seen. Even in salons you can get a haircut for less than 300 baht. Outrageous!
  13. The story i read was saying that Trump wants reimbursement of 500 mil for their assistance with weapons and aid and he want it repaid in minerals. Nothing about depriving Russia access to startlink.
  14. How do you know the man with the knife was Thai? He was wearing a helmet and full clothing.. The Op says it was a Thai man. But nothing in the video shows his nationality. As well, nothing in the OP shows it was a Thai man. The story guesses it was since what foreigner would be running after another foreigner with a long blade such as the one shown in the video. Even the police have not stated they are seeking a Thai man. Presumptuous to say the least
  15. I am not saying they will block Russians... i said they are threatening to block Ukraine if they do not want to reimburse some money being supplied by the US on their war with Russia..
  16. Apparently the latest in the news in about the internet in Ukraine. It seems that they are getting Starlink for free there supplied by the US. The Us has sent billions to them in weapons and supplies under Biden. Now in the news Trump wants that reimbursed with minerals to compensate the governments expenditures. He said that if Ukraine does not want to repay the money with minerals then the US would cut the countries access to Starlink effectively leaving them in the dark with the world. The Biden admin has dumped so much money into the Ukraine without anything to show for it. Win or lose the US/Ukraine posture does not change. It seems feasible that if the Ukraine war continues they will be begging the US for more and again without any reimbursement. Those are American taxpayers money used to supply the Ukraine war for the last 3 years. With nothing in return except their hands out for more.
  17. So stupid these farangs are.. Put a few drums in the background and they bounce around like monkeys. Where do they think they are? One would think from the video they are visiting some small tribe in Africa trying to act like the natives. Is this what they do while on vacation? Jeez...
  18. I do not think so. The Intersex meaning is speculating about being transgender. But really the definition states a physical problem like have ovaries but no opening to them or producing menstruation but unable to expel it monthly.. Or an enlarged clitoris. I do not think there are many with the physical problem. Surely not 2% of the population. So I think the OP is using the term including transgender. If 2 % of the population has physical defects then they should be studying what is going wrong with the genetics of them that is making this occur. I think the LGBTQTRSVLFSRT#$FJWL group is trying to twist the meaning so they can have a win to get their money back. If a baby is born with a Intersex physical problem then they will be medically diagnosed as male or female and surgeries performed as a baby to fix the problem allowing them to lead a normal life. You can not fix a transgender since it is a mental health issue. Just like you can not fix a sadist or child molester. Their problem with identity is not physical. The groups advocating for these people are surely not happy they lost their money and freedoms to enter toilets of the opposite physical sex. The HHS is doing the right thing. The OP is clearly trying to create controversy over this when there is none.
  19. CNN was one of those News services getting money from USAID. It does not surprise me that anything that could be damaging to Biden would have been given any newsworthy time or space in their service. Just as this woman, If she actually reads what her employer puts out as news. Should not make a difference. She should be fired simply for not investigating things relevant or comparative to her story.
  20. Smart man getting the same lawyer. In the end though it will not make a difference. He should be lucky the police did not plant incriminating evidence in his home wile there. He should know better than to make waves this way especially doing it online. Someone will get angry and make problems for him.
  21. The boy was only wrong for driving. Not for his actions while being chased and threatened by attack from those dogs. The motorist was not at fault at all. The man who owns the dogs was responsible for not ensuring they were locked up from trying to attack passersby. This is a problem that happens everywhere. The man deserves to be praised. Not many a Thai would accept their responsibility for such an instance. Most dogs on the street have owners but when something happens caused by the dogs, They become stray and soi dogs only being fed by their owners. No responsibility is ever accepted.
  22. So a few unruly Israeli's have now caused many events that seek to demoralize and control as well as supervise, check, and cause chaos with those from Israel because one area attracts many to specific areas for tourism. Talk about overkill hmm... Drastic measures implemented to all simply for because a few made the news.Typical Thailand
  23. I think he means... If he leaves the country. It utilizes the re-entry stamp and does not cancel the extension to stay on retirement visa. In which case he would need to wait to leave the country until his extension and re-entry expire. Or he could go to immigration and cancel the extension hence the re-entry stamp also. If he leaves with the re-entry still valid. When he returns his extension will still be valid also. As for the border run, why use an agent when you can take a train that goes directly into Vientiane, Laos for less than 1000 baht?
  24. Although I understand your complaints, but you chose to live near that without thought about what happens at night. I am certain that they did not just decide one evening to turn up the music in a private residential area. You should have given thought to your surroundings prior to living there. I also fail to see what this has to do with killing someone over their need to repair their plumbing during normal day light hours. The man who did this must have had some issues with the one he killed prior to this incident leading to his anger being so much. Although Thais, generally fly off the handle easily and escalate things quickly and without thought.
  25. Thus is a fine example of the morals and values that have been taught in Thailand. Attempt to kill a family member because they do not want to give you some money making you angry at them. This has happened quite a few times already in the past year in Thailand. The government needs to take a hard look at what os taught in schools as well as in the homes. Sad for the old man, and hope he does not die from the wounds inflicted. The man needs to be sent to prison for a long time.
