  1. Is that not former master sergeant? Just wondering?
  2. I think that other places like Chumphon are also still suffering. Places like Pattaya, Hua Hin, Cha Am etc. are close in distance to Bangkok, so locals and tourists either go there or to Chiang Mai and other popular cities that are well known. TAT must be happier than they were last year.
  3. To the poster who says west promoting Ukraine war, how would you like Russia to invade the country you are in then lie to say they are only there to protect you from some very bad people. It is time for Russia to get out of the country of Ukraine and stop this war that they have started. Get it? I hope so.
  4. In all my visits to Thailand over the last 30 years, I have always walked around the drain covers, as most of them look like they would collapse if I stepped on them. I use that caution in most places that do not have the proper steel covers like they have in North America, and some other parts of the world.
  5. Defrocking is a lesson for many fake monks. What kind of lesson is learned by smashing a plate over the head of someone? Do not trust a monk? Just wondering.
  6. When you have been fired at 6 times, even an RTP member would likely shoot back at least twice, if he knew how to shoot his gun. I hope the father has enough money for a lawyer to point out this part of the situation.
  7. Thailand has more than China for a nearby country. My guess for this special treatment is the number of possible visiting tourists from China, vs the other nearby countries. Maybe the good trade agreements with the Chinese companies and government as well may be an influence. I just like the Winter weather conditions and a few nice beaches that are away from the cities along the coastlines of Thailand. Just my two cents worth of opinion.
  8. Thanks for the sound bite of Cheech and Chong. brings back fond memories of the 70s. ha ha ha
  9. If the UK has a carbon tax like Canada, it is time to scrap that tax. It is not like the world is running out of food, if you are a millionaire. If you have a normal wage, then sorry about that. I am in that category.
  10. Sorry it was my computer that was the problem, disregard. Harvey
  11. Well there is Winter in the UK, Winter in Belgium and Winter in Thailand. Which one would most poster prefer? That is the question, I think. IMO
  12. Oh and today there was yet another mass shooting in California. I guess the USA is trying for a record year of mass shootings, after all it is only January 24th today. I am not from the USA, and I do not want to go there, it is getting very dangerous. Wrong place at the wrong time could kill me.
  13. I am glad to see that some of these looters were found guilty and charged for their crimes. Too bad about the orange teflon guy. He deserves jail time too.
  14. Oh, what time of day in Phuket, do you do your news program. by the way. Harvey M
  15. Enjoying your Live News, and the sound was great yesterday as well as today. If people cannot hear you, it is their speakers, that have the problem. Thanks for this newest style of news. Harvey M, Calgary Alberta Canada
  16. Way to go Estonia. Do not believe anything that Putin has to say.
  17. I was lucky to have an older brother and sister, who did not like to fight, but when they did they did not lose. My father taught them how to defend themselves, as he was a Military MP and knew defensive techniques. When I was in my teens he also taught me some moves, and I used them to save getting beat up. I learned that some bullies are not great fighters. RIP to this poor girl, and I hope that the bullies face some bad karma in the future.
  18. On the bad days, I have always worn a mask, a KN95 or N95 type, to keep my lungs and throat from being itchy. I had tourists ask me why, but never had any Thais ask. Hmmm, wonder why? COVID is not the only reason to wear a mask, I found that I never had a cold or flu as well, because I wore a mask when I was in large crowds. However there are those people who just need their bare faced freedom. who will claim that masks make them sick. Well you have to change and clean your mask if you do not want to get the germs working against you. Just saying.
  19. I just hope that Canadians can get a 90 day visa for a longer visit, without having to get a 60 day visa then pay more fore an extension. Thailand has a lot to do to move into the 21 century. IMO
  20. I agree, and at least you do not need to carry a million dollars of local currency like in Vietnam. I also enjoy the Thailand banks, better than the banks in Mexico etc. IMO
  21. All countries should modernize this method. Quick, likely quite painless, and the body parts can be used to benefit society, as in eye transplants, etc. The convict could even volunteer a blood donation just before the blade. Win, Win. Bring back the death penelty.
  22. Unfortunately Russia has a lot of cannon fodder, and is employing mercenaries, as well, Putin will kill off all his criminals and poor people to keep fighting this illegal invasion of Ukraine. I call this Putin's war, and not as a compliment. As another poster said, this war will likely continue until Putin is gone in some manner. IMO
  23. Americans and their guns are like Thais and their amulets. Some even try to come into Canada with their USA permit, packing pistols. They get a big surprise at the border.
  24. I just wish that my home country still had the death penalty for some murderers. Sadly no more hangings. Personally I favor the guillotine, all the body parts could be used for medical benefits.
