  1. As has been indicated already, repayment of loans is very rare in Thailand. As a Thai the lender should have known that he was actually making a donation.
  2. Does this refer to Biden or Trump ?
  3. Not sure why you posted this, given that it takes time to assess the withdrawal effects of quitting, whether it be alcohol, cigarettes, pain killers, narcotics or weed. Just to say that in my experience weed is by far and away the least harmful of addictive sustances so don't be upset if you revert to partaking it.
  4. What about the old man he fell on ? Does he count for nothing ?
  5. Many Americans who are strong supporters of the Democratic party are, however, less than happy with Biden's handling of the southern border issues
  6. In the case of this government many may feel that any way of removing it qould be justified. It was not elected by the voters, but put in place by fraud.
  7. A very sad example of the downside of Thai culture.
  8. If jail for this offence was applied across the board there'd be hardly any cops on duty.
  9. Pathetic attention seeking by someone who thinks he's funny. A spell in jail for assault would be appropriate.
  10. True, the 1980s in fact. Went there many times on breaks from my office in Taiwan. Good to hear that security is ok now. What about the food ?
  11. Way too many people on Earth, more than 8 billion compared to just over 2 billion when I was born in 1941. Improvements in the environment are impossible with our population growth rate.
  12. A lurid report recently stated that temperatures in Saudi Arabia were 'now reaching 50C'. I lived and worked in Riyadh 40 years ago and the temperature regularly reached 50C at that time.
  13. Not sure why this is on here. All the charges appear to have been made in England.
  14. Chomsky is a perpetual undergraduate, and nothing like as bright as he thinks he is.
  15. Mugged twice in Manila, never even remotely threatened in Bangkok. Also, the food in Manila is dire, and nowhere near as good as Bangkok/Thailand.
  16. Normalcy for us Brits is a constructive and friendly relationship with the USA. Biden hates us, so normalcy is out for now.
  17. Hopefully his big mouth will be his downfall, again.
  18. Ridiculous to be floating this idea while, at the same time, proposing increased taxes on foreign remittances and overseas income.
  19. What most Thai women look for in a man is not that different to women anywhere else. Security, kindness and a sense of humour.
  20. Arab countries will not accept Palestinian refugees. They are neither liked nor trusted throughout the Arab world.
