They should also investigate why the merit making event backfired. Did they not give enough merit hence becoming the victims? Is this merit making actually doing anything but taking lives and money and food? Sorry, although I feel bad for the dead and injured. It never ceases to amaze me how Buddhism scams the people with promises that can not be delivered. Then using the peoples gifts to do bad things. I do think real Buddhism is a good thing. But not this Thai way that turned it into a farce.

They will be a list of questions sent out so Biden can be prepared to make a good show. This is all a hype to show Biden in a good light. He may even have a teleprompter. We will never know.

Wrong. Any substance use. Period.

I am constantly reading about random drug checks when the police raid bars and parties. Always those who tested positive for drugs are subsequently charged with crimes. Thailand has laws about this that it is illegal to have drugs in your system. So, pray tell, what is to stop the police from accessing those test results and going after each person who tested positive?

I thought Thai immigration allowed international transfers to show as proof of your money being sent. What you say makes no sense simply because there are many that do not get their money from SSA. Immigration should not care how you get your money, only that it is sent to thailand from outside Thailand. I have not read or heard about any new laws that say differently. Is Udon changing the rules?

Tell you what... China could change, but that would mean paying more to their workers. Charging more for their products. I do not see that happening anytime soon. If it did happen they would probably lose out to other Asian countries willing to charge less for less quality. There will always be a need for something new that is substandard in quality. Poor people want to look rich too.

Thainess at its best. Apologize for telling stories that are factual simply because it imaginarily hurts the city image and someone complained. The photo they used in itself is 90% males. Does anyone see a bar girl standing in front of businesses? Everyone knows what goes on in Pattaya. Pattaya knows it as well and allows it. Profit from it even. They could not stop it if they wanted to. It is so ingrained in Pattayas culture. Perhaps they could raze the city nightlife hotspots but it would not change what happens everywhere else. What they should do instead is promote it for nightlife and have other promotions for family daytime activities. Balance the 2 and the city would double its prosperity. Sex workers have been doing this job since before Jesus (some in Pattaya now look like they have been doing it that long also). Why do they claim it does not happen there and the reports are not real?

throughout time countries have changed their histories to make their ideology seem so good or to blot out something very bad from peoples memories. Most Asian countries still do it. Thailand tried a few years ago when they changed history books to allow only those that left out Thaksins illegalities.. Am sure changes were also made to history books even higher up the pipeline. China does it, Korea does it, and many others. Although, I can not say if those changes showed in Wikpedia. but it makes sense that the government can do what they want to get their people to believe whatever is written and taught. just look how they wrote about the covid epidemic and the source of it. that alone should tell you how easily governments control what is placed online about history.

i am assuming only. But it reads like he offered them that money where others could hear. Hence their refusal would be outspoken as well. Let's wait and see what happens to this guy next. But I am also guessing, if this guy really has access to a million baht then why overstay? He could easily by the Visa package or afford a business visa.

How is it free? They collect huge amounts of money in. advertising that we must endure if we want to read the news from here. Seems to me they are profiting quite a lot from our views everry time we open a page to read or comment. The point the mod made seems to have left this point out.

And you are saying Biden wants peace? Haha you are fooling yourself. there are 3 war fronts now active with more closely following across the world. Biden supports all of them providing weapons and money to continue fighting. I also believe you are the one sitting in your armchair and doing nothing about the wars or the people dying except complaining about Trump. The article makes a fair point. They see Trump as the winner in the election (so sorry for you about this) and want to know what to expect from him. So they can make plans for when that happens. As for NATO. They have more drills than they have interventions or participation to de-escalate things. Perhaps if NATO got involved at the first sign of problems then it would not have lasted for so many years already. Some other countries who belong to NATO do absolutely nothing. Just use the name when something bad happens in their country and they need assistance but nobody will help except NATO. Perhaps it is time to withdraw or create a new world peacekeeping group? One that actually takes action when their participants find some country invading their soil.

but Buriram produces the best and most needed talent when they arrive in Pattaya or Bkk for foreigners.

speechless about this. How can any man get an erection looking at a baby? Insanely sick in the head. Let alone their attempting sex. Geez, even with the small peckers Thais have it would kill any toddler if inserted. This guy is married too? He needs his pecker chopped off and a then a death sentence after suffering many years being butt-f---ed in prison

it is about porn and sex toys. not sex workers. They would never pass laws for their sex workers because there are no sex workers in Thailand. Just ask Pattaya police. They check soi 6 and soi bukhao all the time and never find sex workers.

yeah... how dare he offer fake passports that were really fake. Hope he fries in hell for that.

a kuwait tourist. another foreigner. fighting over a woman they both must have paid for to be with at some point. So stupid. Anyone who dates or gets a woman in Pattaya should not have any jealous feelings if they see the same woman with another man later on. Especially in Pattaya. Certainly not worth the trouble or problems the actions create afterwards for them. ie fines, deportation, jail.

Are they finally seeing the obvious that most people know already?

actually, a previous article mentioned about that. they said they would not do it.

I am stunned. However, anyone who knows how Chinese manufactures work would know recall that unless standards are set and met and checked regularly, then the production quality will decrease. Perhaps poor battery quality or some other expensive issue. China sells its best to 1st world countries. Even better than they sell to their own people in China. With even less quality to other Asian nations. Like I said, you get what you pay for.

perhaps they moan because they look at it objectively as someone who experiences it or reads about it daily. I would give Thailand a good ranking simply because I live here and do not know what it is like to live in those other countries. Although, it is easy to see that much needs to be done to make it rank 6 throughout the world. Immigration, skyrocketing prices for cheap quality, police and government corruption, religious scandals and crimes, the hub for call center scammers, unsafe school atmospheres with rogue teachers, new tax laws aimed at foreigners living here, and many other topics surely would reduce that ranking. Which leads me to my next point about how stupid these polls are. They contact 12,500 expats in different countries and ask them which is better? or rank different topics based on what they know. But how does the expat know what rank to really give unless he has lived in the other countries as well.. They only base their opinion on their current place of living. So can not judge if another country is better.

I agree... First chevy, isuzu, now honda. Surely the cause is not EV cars. There are not that many on the road and even less charging points. The government can twist the reasons to anything they want but i think it has a lot to do with the fact that there is no money for people to buy expensive products now. Chinese products are cheap but you get what you pay for as well. In the years to come that will be shown and proven.

History is full of madman with crazy ideas about how to make things better. This is how America became so good in the past. Who is to say that Trumps ideas and crazy ideas and actions would not make America great again. Because currently, America bites the big one. And is getting worse instead of better. I would have to ask though. I do not see you living in the USA currently. There must be more than one reason for this. Personally, I live a richer fuller life in Thailand than in the USA. Mostly because I saw the country spirally towards disaster with those running the country. It is still in that downward spiral. America is no longer strong. Freedoms are gone or heavily policed. Costs of living are expensive. Jobless and homelessness is high.

Ohh you mean this credible medical report and statement from the hospital?

HAHAHA

You all need to reread the photo report. He arrived in the afternoon.. For a planned physical. requested the cognitive test while there. Geez, what is with you Dems? twisting something so blatantly in front of your eyes just to make this OP show trump in a bad light? I can not comprehend your need to do such things. You are as blind as Biden is to his problems. Personally, I do not care who wins. As long as it does not affect my life in Thailand. But it irks me to see stupidity at such a level simply because you want to vote your way. Step back. Look at everything and make an assessment. Stop using any OP as a chance to criticize the opposition. The way you all act seems like you are ready to go to war over it.
