Let us all see who this a**hole is

Where are the clinical trials? How can they make such a statement when their claims have not been tested and independently tested to verify the results.

Goes along side the cures for Ebola And HIV

Who said the car was rented?

What makes him a tourist? Maybe just his visa?

The police officer's motorbike had no license plate at all

Yet, you condemn the guy to a prison sentence. What if it's found out that the car driver had not a trace of alcohol or other substance and that it was an accident at 2:40am.

Then again, i'm sure you'll find some other answers.

It is about paying due respect to others. Evidently this idiot didn't. Had he been driving get slower maybe there would not have been the tragic accident.

Before anyone says maybe he wasn't driving get fast just look at the front of the car. You don't get that amount of damage to a Mercedes if you are driving slowly. 

Lock him up and throw away the key

I lived and worked there for 12 months back in 2013. It's lawless and basically unsafe. Yes, very beautiful but you would need security  -which is the second biggest industry after O&G.

You weren't by any chance on the LNG project at Hides were you?

Typical Thaivisa mentality, make up what wasn't reported.

 

There is no mention at all in the report (not the headline) of a gang attack, this was an assault by one man on another.

I suggest you read the full story. Wasn't one on one, it never is in Thailand

These notifications will have less impact that tourists being blown up will have. The attitude demonstrated by Thailand is appalling. Don't worry about people being injured or killed as long as we can make money.

Ridiculous idea. What the police need to do is get out on the roads during the time of day when most drunk driving accidents occur and run breathalyser checks on anyone driving too fast or erratically.

 

 

And if they refuse arrest them for obstructing the police (and get away from status being an excuse)

Typical Thai mentality. We can't do anything alone, but feel like they are hard men when there is a bunch of them. Dogs run in packs do I need to say more?

Certain things will alter like people overstaying will probably decline but on average I really can't see anything changing much. Maybe my opinion is because I don't do the bar scene or the like. I basically lead a life doing what I would do in any country.

Many here will disagree I am sure but what you get out of a country depends on the person

Believable and here is why. If they wanted they would have stopped him leaving Hong Kong. Would have been low profile.

On the other hand it could have sparked more demonstrations had the Chinese government done that.

If Thailand did they would be helping China. China doesn't really care what the world thinks as does Thailand.  Difference is China has far more power in the world than Thailand.

I would go for Thailand being the one to send him back not China. If he was allowed into Thailand he may start a demonstration.

Not sure if helps but I will tell what I know. I obtained a settlement visa for my Thai wife quite a few years ago so things have probably changed.

At the British Embassy we obtained a 2 year visa. With that she had to spend at least a month in the UK before renewal but could come and go as she wanted. After 2 years I wrote to the Home Office asking for a settlement visa and surprisingly they issued her with one.

One of the differences is I am British, also the stupid test that is now in existance did not apply at the time we applied for the visa.

What I remember is the Embassy does not issue the full settlement the visa,  that is issued by the Home Office of ceiling you are in the UK.

Not sure if this helps but it is the best I can offer you. Good luck anyway

I have always had the letter within minutes at Bangkok Bank

It must be wrong, only recently it was stated that there would be no flooding and that was from an expert so this has to be false

Shocked, shocked to my core.   About the driving incident ?  No, no... that there are actually people employed as driving instructors in Thailand.  Never would have believed it...

Sad I know but true. When my wife passed her test I know had to teach her how to drive, now she is definitely up to European standards

Is it just me or are others noticing the economy is going to s***. I'm noticing more business shutting down. I can feel it in the air. Maybe it's just me.

 

Personally, I wouldn't touch Thailand with a 50 foot pole in term of investing here and seeing a return. Definitely not at the moment. 

I would doubt if the German companies will either

So since the last big flooding nothing has been done to protect Bangkok??? 

Don't have to do anything after all just recently the experts (God love them) said there would be no flooding

If it is too transparent it will be see through and you can't have that

They could start by making the test a real test and actually failing people who don't meet the standard. Right now it is a joke.

At least this time they won't get a slap on the wrist. I forsee some long jail time for them.
