  1. Not sure I can see how it cost any EXTRA taxpayer money. The boats and crew all get paid whether in use or not. At least this way the equipment is of some use and not sitting around idle in a navy yard.
  2. I agree with the OP 100% on the Thais treatment of us foreigners. If other posters haven't noticed it, I would put that down to their powers of observation and lacking in awareness. Lucky for me. I don't really care.
  3. Motorcycles are much worse than drugs ........ so let's ban m/cs first.
  4. I doubt any of these cameras have the resolution to get that information. My phone (that has 10x the resolution of these cameras) can't read a QR code from 1m away.
  5. I think you'll find the student loans are only available to Thais whose high school teachers have listed their family as 'poor' (live in a shack and no car). It was certainly never available to the 'poor' children I took in.
  6. I'm betting most of the 'failures' only failed to pay their fees.
  7. I've never cared one way or the other. If people that left school at age 12, know nothing about anything, can't earn 10kbht/month, are bossed around and slapped by their 'higher classes' and kneel to dodgy monks every day want to think themselves in some way superior to me, let them!
  8. Ignoring the locals isn't the same as isolating yourself.
  9. Just ignore the locals, works in any country.
  10. I wonder if all these nonsense reactionary polls will disappear with the military government?
  11. Hong Thong is also good enough, and a bit cheaper than SangSom.
  12. Or combine the two ........... https://www.facebook.com/reel/552896240328869
  13. When my woman and daughter attended university it was about 90% female + a few gay guys. Almost ZERO heterosexual men. The full story doesn't explain what they mean by 'gender parity'. Numbers of students? exam results? Nonsense story!
  14. Thought it was OK for pop stars to bang teens back then. Modern laws looking back in the past don't really work in this woke world. Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13yo cousin, in most of Europe the age of consent was 13 or 14 .........
  15. Had my first wine cooler with breakfast at 7am today.
  16. Auf der Au German buffet (230bht) serves beer, opens at 10am. No bacon but the thick sliced ham is very nice.
  17. No nee to hurt anyone, The state should seize all property and assign it's use according to people's needs. That would immediately solve the UK's current housing crises.
  18. Yes, Because it's wrong to own property as any socialist/Marxist will tell you. All property is theft! (Proudhon 1840)
  19. Yeah, I wear my bicycle helmet sometimes, and it's never a problem.
  20. Nope, you have to do it before taking the pension.
  21. I'm a boomer and I never got any of that 'sexual revolution'. I had to move to Thailand for sex (with another person). Back to the OP, I have no problems drinking a wine cooler with breakfast (and lunch, and tea). Why shouldn't I?
  22. Would point out it's women initiating most western divorces and stripping the men of their hard earned assets.
  23. Same as my woman's family home in Petchabun. Entirely normal in Thailand, what's special about this family? If you live in Chiang Mai there's 100s of these makeshift dwellings all along either side of the Ping River.
