  1. The C-130 has reverse trust and can drive backwards on land.
  2. Plenty of 5 star hotels in BKK !!
  3. Good one, I came in by the visa free scheme and spend 5 months traveling round Thailand and Laos. I had to go to Laos to get a new visa free entry. But we (my wife and I) stayed some 3 weeks, traveling there. Spending less money than in Thailand. We had a great time. Best regards. Off Road Pat.
  4. A serial killer would not be put in the same cell ! Dangerous people are put in solitary cells !!
  5. Hm, ... Like they are already fluent in English ???
  6. Nah, the whole point of backpacking was to travel and see the world ! And meet people !. And, yes , we couldn't call home every day for several reasons. The international calls were expensive, and you couldn't always find a place where you could call internationally. But we have great memories from backpacking. The best time of my life!
  7. I was thinking the same thing. Thais, mostly treat animals as toys. They have to perform tricks or look funny.
  8. The damage to his car would be difficult to explain. !!
  9. I saw dozens of buildings under construction in Bangkok. None of them caved in !!!
  10. The internet is your friend, use it. https://world.thaipbs.or.th/detail/twenty-years-after-boxing-day-tsunami-thailands-disaster-defences-crumbling/55927
  11. Looks like they have a lot of fun, Until, ....The crying.
  12. There was nothing in the article about "No Helmet" I am sure she would have wared one, as she is a ICU nurse. But no full face helmet obviously !!
  13. In this, they are appellate courts of the highest instance. In this way, they differ from systems that have a supreme court that can rule on both the facts of a case and the relevant law. The term derives from the Latin cassare, "to reverse or overturn".
  14. Key words are "NO HELMET" RIP Carlos !
  15. Sad, but true. RIP young man.
  16. Hm, ... Nothing to be proud of !
  17. Most Politicians were police officers and made fortune just like Thaksin before entering politics.
  18. Maybe, but some countries have no, or minimal corruption !!!
  19. And that is where Thaksin Shinawatra started his career and made his first fortune. I suppose !?
  20. Hm,... You are forgetting the thousands and thousands of innocent deaths killed by the police. The police will say they were drug dealers !! but they fabricated all proof !!! In fact it's a blueprint of what happened here in Thailand with Thaksin's war on drugs !!
  21. Hm, As long as he don't poses a direct threat to someone, nobody will bump him off.
  22. Hm, Apparently Mathias has a lot of money, and probably buys of the police every time before this. But the good news is that the judge condemned him to two years in prison. He won two appeals before. So there is only one left !! Cassation !! That is the latest news I have from there. My wife and I were there less than a week ago. And everybody was talking about this case. It has been going on for years.
