Petchou

These numbers are exactly when bush and his cons were in war in irak before things get civil war encouraged by bush supporting one side against another. I hope you have been reading the news, otherwise you may be telling us bush brought peace and chocolate to Iraqis kids and families. Lol

I think your exaggerating and going off-topic. I doubt that America has killed a million Iraqis.

It's a British independent research organization who reported these numbers, not me.

Reading posts in this topic, you realize how much ignorance and hate exist amongst many participants who are not much different in certain way from Isis criminals.

Below a link to result of such spread of hate by unfortunately so many.

This is from that link:

a preliminary investigation into the deaths suggested the killings may have been the result of a simmering parking dispute

Your being pretty disingenuous to suggest that people on this forum are like those in ISIS. I haven't heard of any Thaivisa members beheading or burning anyone alive lately in the name of Jesus or Buddha.

It says it all how hate propaganda can make haters kill for a parking dispute, haters are brainless finally.

I don't think these students or millions of people from their faith have ever beheaded anyone.

More than million civilians have been killed (same result of beheading) in irak by "civilized" army in name of god as bush said.

We can compare with the northern neighbors Canada, where guns are prohibited, there is no comparison. The country is safer and number of crimes is a way less.

Same thing apply for more civilized countries such Sweden, Finland, Norway and Denmark. Police should be the protectors, if not you can consider living in jungle.

No, those countries aren't safer. They are in real danger. That includes the rest of W. Europe.

Police should be the protectors? How's that working out in W. Europe where the PC governments and police don't protect the natives? How did that work out for the parents of 1400 children molested in the UK with no one stepping up to do anything about it?

What are the native citizens of these countries going to do as this gets worse and the killers and rapists outbreed them as they continue to immigrate? Are the police going to stop that, or stop the consequences of it? What are Europeans going to do when they are no longer safe in their own countries? That day is coming and they are sleeping while their countries begin to burn.

People in the PC countries don't have a long view. They aren't thinking of their children and grandchildren.

The first thing any government does when it wants to control its population is to disarm it. It's happened too many times. Now Europeans are completely controlled not only by their governments, but by bigger international groups which they have joined and the people have lost all power.

The days is soon coming when I will be able to say that I told you so and that I warned you, but then it will be too late for you. Go ahead. Drink a toast to your feelings of superiority. They will do you no good when your country and culture are soon overrun by outsiders, encouraged by your governments.

Rapists?? What is the link to guns? Immigrants?

Really lost....

I don't know where you live and where you get your information from.

Canada is thousands times more safer than US and same for all European countries.

Rapists and molesters are most of time very close people to the victims.

There is no plot from nobody, it's only in your head and in fox news headlines and we all know that those who propagate the plot theory are really totally irrational.

I still enjoy walking in most Canadian or Europeans cities without fear of being shot anytime, I can not do it in Los Angeles and many other cities in states.

You must have missed the news days when gangs in Toronto and Vancouver shoot up malls and parking lots without regard for innocent bystanders. 3 cops shot in New Brunswick 2 Shot in Alberta Where do you walk the streets?? The Territories? Canada is as wild and as wicked with gun crimes as the U.S. per capita. 33 million verses 350 million.

Official stats:

Murder rate per 1 million people:

canada 554 Ranked 31st.

usa 12,996 Ranked 9th.

23 times more than Canada

I think the day is comming soon when we will have another nut with a firearm in US killing without any reason because of the so called "freedom"...

Just a quick question :

do you drive at 200m/ h? probably not because the law forbid this and strangely since there is a limit speed regulation in a country, the deat toll on the road decrease...maybe it's linked...

The worse law the US has ever put in place was the "stand your ground" sh.t...

Anyway it's a useless discussion

You don t have a gun for your protection, you have it because you like gun.

Do you go to some Safety door show ? probably not.

About your culture, i m not sure weapon is a cultural thing and help protect culture.

The best gun to protect myself is my brain. Thinking two seconds before adhering to extremists groups motivated by hate of others and violence.

I am still alive without a gun in my environment since I was born and feel safer being close to a bench of crazy pro arms zealots.

Have a great day.

Hope you didn't acquire illegally a gun here in Thailand hhhhh

It's all been said before.

So many innocent deaths for the right to bear arms.

How many deaths and what is that as a % of the US population and the US gun owning population?

In China nutters kill innocents with knives and hatchets. It's their habitual weapon. There is no right to bear arms in China.

Nutters are nutters and will find a way to kill if they wan't to.

Banning weapons deprives the vast, by far the vast, majority of normal law abiding citizens of a means of protecting themselves and their families from attacks by nutters, criminals and extremists. It puts the onus on the police and law enforcement services, who response rates are governed by manpower, policy and procedures.

Only the naive think banning crime will deter or stop criminals or extremists.

300 baht a day (minimum wage) + room and board is not all that bad for unskillrd labor. This a respectful wage Mr. Petchou.

In Bangkok, a full-time, live-in maid should be getting between 12K and 15K a month depending on her job description.

Her job description may include keeping the house spotless, this includes windows and shoe care.

She is responsible for child care, laundry, market shopping and most food preparation.

She should be able to use all the household appliances.

No driving.

She is expected to wear clothing suitable for performing her duties.

She retires to her own quarters after work. She has her own TV and her own phone which stays OFF during working hours. No texts. No Facebook. No chatting. And she sees her friends outside of working hours and outside the house/condo. Except in genuine emergencies you are not to bother her after the dinner cleanup.

Start with two days off per month. If it's working out after three months you'll soon be quite ready to give her a day per week.

That's a maid.

A cleaning lady is just that. She lives out and she cleans according to an agreed upon schedule. There is little meal preparation, no grocery shopping and aside from the occasional babysitting there is no child care. Good cleaning ladies are fully aware of "scope creep".

If there are kids, then the nanny things has to be specified.

People who call their cleaning ladies "my maid" or "the maid" to impress their friends and acquaintances aside from appearing laughably pretentious are confusing the rates of pay between two or even three different jobs.

This blurring and scope creep has also led to the current confusion regarding pay rates among both foreigners and (yes) Thais.

These people are human. Heavy-duty "scope creep" in households who haven't worked out the details of employment can result in theft, pilfering, leakage and worse.

Maids leave their employers for any number of reasons.

Better jobs, more money and family matters being the most common.

You have a stranger in your house.

Jewelry cash and valuables should be handled accordingly.

Think carefully before you hire a servant.

It's an intrusive arrangement.

A military camp treatment with suspicious attitude of being a thief. What a pitty.

What's your maid/cleaning lady's salary and her job description.

And (since you feel you know enough about MY situation to call it an army camp I'll return the presumptuous ness) do you try to impress your friends by calling your cleaning lady "the maid" . You needn't bother, they know enough about you already to figure out what's going on.

or have you upgraded your maid into some kind family structure situation.

Any kids ? Cause THAT changes the mix. ?

You really want to know.

I have a maid for four hours every week, she get paid 700 baht, is treated with lot of respect. She is served lunch and get food and fruits when leaving. I don't feel I am doing anything special. Just treating her with dignity and I trust her, nothing is hidden, money, passport etc... She never touch anything.

What goes around comes around.

I hope this satisfy your curiosity.

Those who are paying 6, 7 k should check their deep down values of respect to human being dignity. Ask yourself what you can do with this amount of money? Strange enough these people will talk about justice, democracy and humanism while their actions are far from that.

Another useless quote from a Troll with no understanding on Thai lifestyles.

Gotta be a tight assed Pom eh

Brilliant and so meaningful

Those morons are just holding a French passport alas but they are nothing French.

Au contraire, all part of the new face of France...

Personally, I believe the laws of their faith should be applied... If caught stealing, lop off a hand...

Wow faith is now defined by name sound. Incredibly ignorant statement

As far as I can see all the points in OP are valid.

I spend 15 years in Quebec and refused to learn the language for the very same reasons.

You missed the boat. Quebeckers can be so funny...

Sincerly if you can't live in Thailand, you can't live in Canada for sure. Depreciation of Canadian dollar has an impact in the price of all goods in Canada since almost everything is imported and paid in us dollar.

not all goods

Like what?

More filth.

or every scum they catch there is still another 10 operating.
Why can't immigration racially profile these people? Every other aspect of thai society is racist so why not when it comes to immigration?
Serious question.

I agree under condition to profile all pedophiles and they are all from your race. You will not be here if we apply your bright idea....

What race would that be?
North Africans posing as Frenchman?

Good try...
You may educate yourself by having an idea of who is being arrested for pedophilia in Thailand?
Same thing apply for us.

I can understand your reaction, the truth hurts... I sympathize.

To help you a bit, Google pedophiles in Thailand. Wish you good reading. Lol

You seem very fixated on pedophiles. That's the first sign of a closet case and trying to deflect your carnal urges on to others.
I know the signs when I see it.

You make really laugh loudly. Case lost....

Just a reminder from a great man:

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.

Eleanor Roosevelt.


Another good one:

Never argue with an i....t. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

George Carlin

What an intellectual you are.
Rehashing old quotes to appear educated.
You're what I like to call "google smart"

Put a complaint to the united Nations. Call Reuters to make the headlines.

Lol

None of American interventions all over the world was a success, just more innocent civilians killed, installing corrupted regimes and creating more hatred (with a reason in some cases) towards USA.

All the bullshit of values American politicians seem to be proud of are never defended and praised elsewhere.

I'll never understand this. The UK provided 1/3 of the troops for the initial invasion of Iraq. That's more troops per capita from the UK than from the US.

20 other countries provided troops for the war in Iraq.

How can people continue to be so blind as to blame it all on the US? HOW???

I think people from the UK must just be intentionally blind.

The reason nobody talk about UK is because they are just american's puppy.

They have never decided for anything, just blindly executing what their masters decide.

Not according to what I heard Blair preaching to Parliament back in the day. He was saying that Saddam had WMD's and must be stopped. Parliament approved it.

BTW if 22 people rob a bank, you can't just blame one person. They all get nailed.

I think people from the UK must just be intentionally blind to exhonerate themselves and blame all on the US.

Hypocrites.

I am not from UK.

Is Colin Powell and all the enraged con's from Republican party who first mentioned WMD.

Blair played role of voice of his master. Nothing more. I am not denying role played by UK and all dictatorial Arab regimes who participated too.

I know several Thai women ( through my wife), all in their 30s who have never been married, all well educated, attractive and with a decent income and life style.

They all say they would never marry a Thai man.

They all say Thai men do not respect women, don't like to work , drink too much, often have other women "on the side" and do not accept responsibility for their families.

They have also said that if they ever met the right farang, they may get married someday.

But if not, they will never get married.

"Better to be single and happy than married to a Thai man and suffer!"

These women envy a Thai woman with a good farang husband.

There are as much good Thai men as anywhere else. There are millions of couples happily married.

Thai girls in many cases are watching too much movies and love stories. Hhhhhh

Marrying farang means better economical status, and even this is not true, since many farangs are living on very tight pensions. Many farangs are violent towards their partners back home, many here will reproduce same behavior.

Things are Nevers just white or black.

Everyone can say what they want about this action in the middle east however in truth a lot of good has come out of the intervention. History will be the judge of this.

That's not middle east Buddy... Go look for a map or geography 101.
