Oh OK

You're not a native English speaker.

I'll explain it mathematically.

Diesel fuel + subsidy = price of diesel at bowser

Diesel fuel + no subsidy = price of diesel at bowser

Is that gold thief a foreigner?

i have no idea how long you have lived here but some subsidies were remove several years ago from Diesel fuel

As I mentioned, you are correct to a certain extend. But only to the extend that at this moment in time there is no subsidy since it is not necessary, if the prices go above the desired level if will be subsidised again.

I know I am correct, I was living here when subsidy was removed.

I was replying to the comment below

Has anyone noticed that Diesel prices are now about 1 Baht higher than Gasohol (91/95)? That's new to me here in Thailand, used to be the opposite with Diesel being about 1B cheaper. Has there been some shift in policy?

Yep, a few years ago the government remove subsidies 

I dont know why the Hostility guy got involved ("leave him alone", he stuck his nose in) with his 2019 figures, the initial question was asking about past policy.

How many of these smart cars were bought?

I thought just the 2 at Jomtien, how many more around the country

I've seen one parked outside Khon Kaen immigration.

5 series BMW's

Showoffs, a Camry would do the same job.

3BB is offering 10G for 100 Baht per month plus a home internet increase of 100mb, total 300/300 up/down - total 690 baht/ month

Anyone got this, its a DTAC sim.

Matey could quite easily have thought it was his own phone, or at least that's how it looks after such a short clip. A few more seconds for'ard & aft might have removed any doubt...

Absolutely not! Anyone can tell from his actions that he tried to hide the phone from the girl when she went to give him back his change and when he subsequently pocketed it. 
Please don’t try to defend the indefensible.

Unfortunately and all too often some people will choose to differ.

You see it as black, they say it's white, its raining , they see the sun shining, the weather is cold they will say its hot. 

The headline even reads Foreigner caught stealing mobile phone.

The lady whose phone was stolen posted this video on Facebook.

It's hard to understand why people cant see the truth.

You are permanent residents. 

Can I ask why you need to be in a House Book.

I have always thought it strange how the police here get on so well with the Taxi Motorbike riders.

I find it difficult to understand how police can socialize with the riffraff.

In Australia the cops tend to keep to themselves.

If you are not able to read the numbers please leave me alone.

-0.68, -2.93, -4.84 and lower tax than gasoline/gasohol.

Is that too complicated for you?

You were the one that attacked my comment, so you leave me alone.

Your data is for 2019, I beleive Google more than your numbers

Diesel Fuel was far cheaper that Petrol in the past.

I don't "wonder" about anything, although other people seem to want to "wander" as regards the topic, which is what you have done, because on your first post you were indicating that age was to blame, however now you seem to have changed your tune slightly so perhaps you are capable of "wandering" thereby altering your position on the subject..........

I try not to be "surly", but have to say that the responses by some folk would surely result in a surly disposition on my part and from other diligent and careful drivers of my age.

 

I don’t sit in my room all day with my 17 inch screen instantly replying to comments.

I have a life and reply to comments on the fly from my Smart phone with its 5.8 inch screen and big fingers, also no spell check.

It’s petty of you to pick me up on a Typo, Mr Plagiarist.

You should have told that to Bert Munro when he set the world record on a motorbike under 1000cc.....and it still stands. He was 68 years old.

 

I have seen more incompetent younger imbeciles on motorbikes here than older farangs.

 

Burt Munro. Herbert James "Burt" Munro (Bert in his youth; 25 March 1899 – 6 January 1978) was a New Zealand motorcycle racer, famous for setting an under-1,000 cc world record, at Bonneville, 26 August 1967. This record still stands; Munro was 68 and was riding a 47-year-old machine when he set his last record.

Yep the world has only very few of these special talented people.,

Please dont you try this or we surly will be reading about another elderly death.
