  1. Flood-mudslide warning towers to be installed in 144 locations

    The National Disaster Warning Center is preparing to install flood-mudslide warning towers in 144 locations, starting at the end of this year.

    Dr. Smith Dharmasaroja, the Chairman of the National Disaster Warning Center, says global warming has contributed to the flooding conditions in many areas. He says flood-mudslide warning towers will be set up in 144 areas in northern, northeastern and central Thailand. He says the towers will be installed in flood disaster prone areas during the initial stage.

    The towers will warn public members of potential flooding conditions 30 minutes or one hour before they occur.

    Has Global Warming been Proven over night while I was asleep? I thought no one knew if it was real?

    Maybe I'm wrong!!!!

  2. Hi there

    Im going to change schools so I have to do the vientiene run for my 3 month non B visa but

    Ive been told they can ask for a criminal record check has anyone recently got a non B visa from Laos for a teaching position and been asked for a criminal record check letter?

    This is my third time to Vientiene so far never been asked!

    I can get a check but it takes at least 40 days to process back in the UK

    Its called an Access check, costs ten quid, someone back home(family or friend) takes a copy of your passport plus something with last Known address on and within 40 days you have something back...

    Thanks

    Matt

  3. Director-General of the Meteorological Department Supharerk Tansriratanawong (warns of freak weather due to the global warming.

    Has anyone else seen the global warming and made such a bold statement?

    These are translated from a different language, don't get too excited over grammar. :D

    Its not so much the grammar but the fact that people are putting their necks out and saying 'Global warming'

    like its something that is proven.

    So magnafied by placing THE in front, makes it even more entertaining for the likes of me :o
