Since CO2 is less than one half of one percent of the atmosphere and Methane is a trace gas, I find it silly for anyone to think that any of these trace gases or near trace gases are considered to be the great cause of climate change. The earth is warming itself up as it has done so in the past, that is my opinion anyway. Hearing your article on the Aviation authority wanting CO2 levels and fuel usage is a bit silly as well. I guess the Green gang will feel better with the results of all this. Harvey M

Yup the hazards of being skinny and visiting Thailand, is my take away from this incident. Thankfully I am large enough that only a very large hole would worry me. 555

At least Britain does not have to keep supporting the bankrupt or nearly bankrupt countries of the EU. Greece, Italy, maybe Spain for sure. The extra unemployed immigrants and refugees that have landed on the UK shores have not helped the situation as well, thanks France. Just saying that Brexit was ill timed, but would staying in the Eu been such a great alternative?

When I visited Hua Hin in the past, every weekend the crowds of under 30s from Bangkok showed up and could be seen on walking street, and a few other places. During the week the old crowds could be seen around the city, and that was fine with me. Soi 88 used to get very busy on Friday and Saturday evenings, with the live band and lots of young and old enjoying dinner and the entertainment. Just remembering life before COVID. Harvey

These two dinosaurs are rich enough to enjoy full retirement, and Thailand people would not miss them. That goes for a few of their senate people as well. Maybe the senate should be abolished. Just a thoughtr.

I have rented many 125 cc Honda motorcycles, and they are good to get around on. One thing that I did notice over the years was young tourists renting the larger motorcycles and racing them around, sometimes very close to out of control, so I am not at all surprised to hear of the 15 deaths. Young and dumb, is all I could think when these guys went racing by. Most people rent the bikes and have a good holiday, RIP to those foolish ones who kill themselves in Thailand on the big bikes.

I just hope that the military backs this new government, as well as the rich and powerful people of Thailand which I cannot utter the words. Good luck to the future of Thailand. Here is hoping.

Is it true that there is a prison for the very rich. I hear it is quite comfy and the food is good as well. Only a rumor, but one can hope.

I am so glad that I am not Russian, cannon fodder. I feel sorry for the parents and relatives of all the Russian farm lads that have gone to Ukraine to die. Do most Russians really still have the love for Putin? Just wondering. Harvey

Does this mean that Thais have to pay when heading out on a trip as well. They are departing Thailand after all. This tax will just be on the tickets of anyone flying into Thailand on a return ticket back to their country, just like the old departure tax was.

Both this guy, Putin and Trump seem to tell the same amount of truthful stuff. Well in my opinion anyway.

Lots of drugs to be had in the 70s, but I stuck to beer wine and whiskey, and wasted a bunch of money on women as well. I managed to become a senior, and only take the drugs that my doctor prescribes. No one is often forced to get involved with drugs. Just my point on the matter.

So the USA is still a dangerous place to visit. There is the Mexican American, and this incident, and how many others will happen in May? Top country for mass killings is not where I would like to live. Those thoughts and prayers that get offered, are wearing thin. Maybe the NRA folks should take a bit of the blame. IMO

I was told by an ex Tesla owner. 8000 dollars for 4 new tires. He paid 1200 dollars to replace a rear light assembly. After 2 years he had shorter battery range, and had to travel at times with no heat, and no cooling just to make the destination. He now drives a hybrid vehicle. EV tech is not the answer unless the owner is only driving around the city, and has a second vehicle to go over 500 miles or 800 kms. per day. Harvey

Hong Kong should get advice from Singapore.

Would this many deaths call for a death sentence for the murderer?

I do remember the green Chang beer dresses, but I still prefer Singha beer, so am waiting for some of that company's pretty dress wearers. I guess us Foreign visitors should just drink the beer we like the best and not get too critical.

So some guy going back home to India, really did not want to go? It is just unfortunate that it was American airlines that these people were flying on, as some posters who did not read the whole article want to blame an American. Some people just do not behave themselves while flying it seems.

Senior Swiss spends last of his days in Thailand Jail. Is that how the head line should read? Maybe he will spend some time in Thailand, then the rest back in his home country.

Thailand is hot, and the rainy season has not done anything to cool the country down. This time of year is Spring in the northern half of the world and most people are enjoying the last of cool and coldish weather. Hence it is the low tourist season. Besides with all the crop burning happening, most tourists do not enjoy the high levels of pollution. Just to remind some posters, why some of us only travel to the Tropical countries, when it is last Fall, October until Winter is over which is about April for most of Canada. earlies for those lucky Americans.

Well this woman, with the exposed parts to prove such, will likely enjoy some time in a police station. Trans in my opinion, is a man who dresses like a woman, and wants to get woman perks. In Thailand a lady boy is equivalent to a trans until all the operations are done, then is a woman who cannot have children. The rest of the 2plus, LGBTQ are life choices. Male and female are still around as well. Normal is also still around, just not talked about, and we do not have a flag or any special time of the year for our special holiday or such. Harvey

Arcturus is a star and should remain that way. I disagree with the COVID gang using star names for their disease. Harvey

Why Arcturus? I think of Arcturus as a space term, and not some disease. Drats I say.

54C in the sun, 38C in the deep shade, and 45C inside the house. That is a heat wave to me.

I may not be correct, but I thought that an International airport requires two runways. It is a safety issue, incase there is an accident that closes one of the runways.
