Those shops can sell whatever they want, as long as it is not against the law. Nobody is forced to buy anything.

Chicks with dicks. Kind of a very dangerous breed 🙂

That's my man! Welcome to the Thai vapers club!

Thank you for the update @Tod Daniels. It's great to hear about the new 60-day entry stamp program and the unlimited land entries. This certainly makes travel more convenient for many. However, I wish the Thai lawmakers would also consider easing the requirements for long-term stays for foreigners who are deeply integrated into Thai society. Many of us are married to Thai nationals, have children, own homes and cars, and are responsible for school fees and health insurance for our families. Simplifying the process for these individuals would not only recognize their significant contributions to the community but also provide more stability for families who have made Thailand their home.

Certificate of Innocence is great. Is there any agency out there which can provide me with such a certificate? I need it for my wife when I come home early in the morning!

A housing estate is a housing estate. A village is a village. And a housing estate can be part of a village or city. Is it that hard to understand?

At Holy Mary Udon Thani School, many teachers from the Philippines are employed. These teachers do not only teach English language but also a variety of other subjects such as Social Science, Maths, Science, Arts, Phonics, Grammar and more. All subjects are also taught in Thai Language by Thai teachers. All of these teachers are highly qualified and possess strong educational backgrounds. While it is true that English is their second language, Filipino teachers are known for their proficiency in English, often using it as a medium of instruction in their own country from an early age. Their comprehensive training and experience make them effective educators, capable of delivering lessons in English with clarity. For many years I had 2 'English speaking' neighbours. One from Australia and one from Scotland. With the Aussie guy it was ok after some time. But the guy from Scotland? Sometimes I had no idea what he was talking about. So did the guy from Australia😅

The students went back to school last Thursday, 16 May, here in Udon Thani. 🙏 Yes, today is a public holiday, Visakha Bucha. And of course the schools are closed. But my son's teachers presented him some nice homework, so he has something to learn today.

Well, I go early to bed. Around 8 PM usually (only when there is a F1 race then I can commit myself to stay awake longer 🙂 )But I have been doing this since I am a child. I am 63 now, and it's still the same. I guess it has something to do with the 'internal clock'. It is what it is. Does it make me healthy or healthier? I don't think so. I usually get up at 2 AM. What is the benefit? I feel tired at latest at 10 AM again and have to take a nap. Did it make me wealthy? Definitely not. Does it make me wise? This is up to others to decide. It's a biological thing. Not a decision you can make.

In the meantime I also see these lycra guys every early morning in our village in the countryside here in Udon Thani. I guess that all of them are government officials who follow the example of you-know-who. Will see if they wear yellow lycra suits on Mondays now 🙂

Whoever rides a bicycle in urban areas in Thailand is playing Russian roulette. Day or night (which is even worse). I do not even touch my car at night. Of course this does not excuse any reckless driving of locals. But it seems to be the norm. The bigger and heavier the vehicle is, the more rights they claim. Lack of education and training and disrespect of others. RIP, old man. Pity you very much. Hope the killer driver gets caught and brought to justice.

well, who of the locals are not above the law here? It's the Wild East 🙂

It is not Thai culture to greet each other all the time. Same as in all other countries around planet Earth as well.

it's an old picture while the new PM of Thailand visited Hun Sen last year in Cambodia

No, Sir.

Same here. My ex-wife, Vietnamese, went totally beserk during a discussion (it was not even an argument) and attacked me with a knife, in front of our son. To defend myself I grabbed the knife and slapped her. Then she called the police. Police arrived at the house and she tried to convince them that I attacked her. Well, my son was there and told the police officers what really happened. The officers told her to shut up and never call the police again, when she is the attacker, otherwise they will arrest her. One of the police officers said to me:"Do you really want to stay with this crazy gal in the same house?" What I understood was 'run Forrest, run!' I ran. This happened in Germany. Have been living happily here in Thailand since 2011.

Quote: "Pheu Thai came in second place with 141 seats. Leading up to the election, leaders had broadcast their intention to win a “landslide” of at least 310 seats, but rumors of a Pheu Thai alliance with Palang Pracharat may have cost them much of the pro-democracy youth vote. A week before the elections, former prime minister Thaksin also tweeted his intention to return to Thailand in July, which could have caused anti-Thaksin swing voters to turn away from Pheu Thai."

Agreed. MFP will gain more support in the next elections due to their consistentcy on their political agenda. Voters appreciate parties that stay true to their principles and deliver on their promises. The young generation has had enough of the uncles and dinosaurs who are totally out of touch on what is going on in the country.

Exactly. First in 2001 and then again in 2005, which was a landslide victory.

This is exactly what I have been saying even before the elections. Wait and see. ????

I am not surprised. The divide between Pheu Thai and Move Forward has been evident for some time now, particularly regarding the issue of 112. It is unfortunate that they couldn't find common ground during their meeting, leading PT's decision to form a separate coalition government and abandon the MoU they signed only a few weeks ago. I only hope the welfare of the Thai people remains a priority. It will be interesting to see how Srettha Thavisin's nomination as the prime minister unfolds and what this means for Thailand's future, in particular as PT announced to hold another referendum about a new constitution. Another intervention by you-know-who is just around the corner.
