  1. 3 weeks….? in terms of Thai planning this represents long term thinking beyond the realms of practical understanding! ????‍♂️
  2. Quite so on refusing a test,but also if there’s a delay in providing a test they can do a back calculation indicating what the alcohol level was at the time
  3. The general principle is that insurers do pay up for third party damage/injuries no matter what the state of their insured driver,but may well exclude paying for their insured’s damage.
  4. We call it the "thick Gene " … ????‍♂️
  5. Also unlike her in that she had an astute and functional brain and had to win 3 elections in a proper democracy.
  6. Anyone living here quickly learns the language of ‘stupidity'. They’re immersed in it daily ! ????
  7. Ah,like the CCP Chinese strategy that you’ll also be praising! How has that worked out…?
  8. Hanlon’s razor and the Dunning Kruger effect explains all you reference.
  9. Perhaps you are lacking in the observational skills of the rest of us living here…?
  10. I would be very surprised if that cover didn’t also come with conditions relating to motorcycle cover as with other insurers. Mainly,you must have a licence from your own country to drive a motorcycle and you must be wearing a helmet and are not intoxicated.
  11. That many? I’ve told you a million times before not to exaggerate!
  12. I'm sure when posting that made sense to you,but for the rest of us....????
  13. I saw a BBC news item featuring a USA professor who indeed did say the current boosters are efficacious re the new variant,so yes,do get one. I stumbled across a walk in clinic set up in my local Lotus offering Pfizer last week. No queue and had me processed in 5 minutes.????
  14. How did westerners stop that? In most,dangerous dogs attacking people are euthanised immediately. It's Thai culture behind allowing strays and diseased dogs free rein.
  15. At this point in the conversation I’m throwing in the towel.. ????
  16. Oh,there’s a guy…?! My eyes hadn’t focussed from beyond 2/3rds from the left .. ????
  17. Never tried snorkeling off Krabi,although Ao Nang is the coastal resort area of it. Again, won’t be good snorkeling off the mainland but there are long tail boats to the nearby national park,but on top of the boat hire there’ll be (400 baht?) admission charge to the park . Ao Nang has more going on there but not really my scene,but yes you could get to phi phi. Again for decent snorkeling you need the speedboat to take you to various diving spots. Ko Lanta is a good base for those trips (I’d recommend Opal tours,I’ve used on several occasions) but whether there’s enough nightlife etc for your tastes ??
  18. It appears you are unable to comprehend the nature of what you quoted. Indeed if you wanted to know the nationalities of say those convicted of crimes or the proportion of the prison population by nationality, that is indeed deemed in the national interest,that’s why it is available and frequently published in MSM. IT is certainly not detrimental to national security,nor deemed sensitive (as per the other principle you quoted) or to contravene Data Protection laws . If you’re going to quote acts or principles you should first check if they’re relevant to subject matter discussed. Finally ,you may further wish to look up 'hypocrisy' when complaining about unpleasantness while simultaneously resorting to lame playground name calling. If you desire civilised ,intelligent debate you would be well advised to apply that to your own submissions.
  19. Errr…here! "The Official Information Act 1997 (Thai: พระราชบัญญัติข้อมูลข่าวสารของราชการ พ. ศ. ๒๕๔๐) is a Thai act which guarantees the people's right to have full access to government information." Clearly,wilful ignorance to an embarrassing degree is your preferred status,especially if you need explaining to you the benefits of knowledge and information. Perhaps using them to inform your opinions may result in making less embarrassing faux pas in future..?
  20. It’s called being in a society where freedom of information is a central tenet. In fact it has a name "Freedom of information act" which applies in democracies the likes of USA and UK etc. Perhaps if you you took the trouble to better inform yourself of its philosophy and understood the benefits of living in an informed society you might have fewer "bad nights" yourself… "say what" (sic) ???
  21. Other police states are available to live in should you wish to live in one of those closed dictatorships…. ????‍♂️
  22. It’s a very useful metric to gauge any untoward high source of offenders.
  23. That’s only when you’re entitled to that one call ???? home.. ????
  24. Yes,in a cunning ploy to get around this new directive they will instead be pointing at the National Flag of the perpetrator ..with masks of course obscuring the sniggers ????
  25. As a former diver and keen snorkeller there’s nothing really off the main islands now,and worst of all Samui and in the Gulf. The Andaman side is a better bet anyway (Phuket ,Ko Lanta) but even there… ????. Now really for anything decentish you have to go on the speedboat tours to the likes of the Similans (quite a long trip) or Phi phi. Then Ko Roc/Ko Ha (off Lanta) . In summary, poor off the main islands and obviously more expensive (1500 - 2000 baht +) for a speedboat day trip .
