Sure got off the hook easy...  Sure looks like a prime Japanese suspect for murder.  Maybe she jumped to get away from him because he was beating her up...

Just another gimmick for the cops to make money on the side...

LOL, typical Thai bullshit! LOL

"He said he had left the country for almost three years and didn’t understand why he was still subjected to injustice and false charges."

That is the way politics and the justice system works in Thailand...

Police have no credibility.  Why should we believe them?  Could this been another attempt to discredit the Red Shirt organization?

Typical Thai BS.  0.251 Gramm of cocaine = 15 years in jail???  Murderers don't go to jail for that long.

I just paid 12,000 Baht for drilling a well near Nong Khai.  Had to buy the 6" pipes (3000 Baht) , 1.5 HP Franklin submersible pump (15,000 Baht),  Rope and a few fittings.  Well is 76 meters.  Pump at 40 meters.

Complete <deleted>, the 3 of them.

This is complete and utter thuggery, and they deserve the maximum sentence possible.

 

That ain't much time in Thailand...

When I first moved here the hairdresser I used told me that she was selling the 'salon' (bought by a previous Western b/f or husband) because she'd met a Western tourist and after a couple of dates, he'd become sick and she'd looked after him for a few days.

 

During that time, he'd invited her back to the UK (as his g/f) to work in his families' hotel.

 

When I tried to point out that this 'invitation' may be a bad idea, she told me that his mother had 'phoned her to say how much she was looking forward to meeting her son's new g/f.....

 

Being a 'newbie', I could only do my best to point out the possible problems with this scenario - but she didn't listen and sold the 'salon'.  To this day I wonder whether she is OK .

It does make you wonder...  You should have kept contact to make sure she was OK if you cared so much...

Hope she is found alive and well.   I doubt the Thai police will take this seriously and get off their bureaucratic, corrupt butts since there is no extra money to be made with this.

Looking for information:

3 phase + neutral, colour code for Thailand

Single phase, Hot and neutral, colour code for Thailand

QUESTION:  Is the Neutral bonded to the ground in the distribution panel like in North America?

Must be a curse to have his last drink before departing to be water.

Takes a russian to steal a watch...  Who the heck still wear them things anyway?

Gold digger boobs news!

   I'm back in Canada right now... and at the bus stop in my city close to Niagara Falls, I noticed a tattoo and "head" shop just up the street and decide to take a look.  I figured they would be selling drug paraphenalia.  Yes... they are... but also SURPRISE !  They are also selling many types of weed as well as several varieties of hashish. 

     And they said that you DON'T need a doctor's precription.  Just be drinking age or over.  This is the first time I have seen weed and hash sold openly in a shop in Canada without the need for a doctor's medical marijuana prescription.

     P.M.  Trudeau is supposed to be legalizing it in Canada like Colorado and Washington did.... But it has not happened yet.  However this shop is not waiting... and the cops aren't bothering them.. . 

     While I was there, two young guys came in wanting to buy some... and the shop employees asked them to show proof of legal drinking age...  ha, ha,..

DO THEY DO MAIL ORDERS?

Almost every cop I met were corrupt.  They always try to find ways to get money off me instead of issuing me with an official ticket.  So what else do they do that is corrupt?  Extortion?  Kidnaping?  Protection of criminal activities?  Illegal drugs?  Gambling den?  Where does the corruption stops???

I guess we all look alike in Thailand...

Who to believe?  Pictures or more typical Thai BS excuses?

This is not a shotgun wedding.
DEFINITION OF SHOTGUN WEDDING:  When the parents find out some guy has been screwing their daughter.   They bring him to the church, with a shotgun behind the head, and either he marries their their daughter, or he gets killed...

How do taxis at airport fleece people?

1) Don't use their meter and wants a certain amount of money to take you there.

2)  Charge you extra for luggage

3) Take you to your destination using the long way to get there.

What's the point of duty free shops to sell any liquids if you can't take them on the plane?  So how many times have they been selling the same bottles...

Looked at the video...  All I see is people jaywalking in the traffic,pushing a stroller (stupid), then hit by a motorcycle who then stopped after the collision.  I see nothing else...

This made the news in Canada...  Not good for tourism in Thailand.

Looks like Thai criminals don't care to go back to prison so much...
 Maybe if you cut his hand off so he can't hold  a machete anymore?  That might send the message out there to leave the tourists alone?

I have to run cables from the utility pole all the way to my house.  I tried the calculators online and I'm getting different answers.

I'm not sure if I will go single phase or 3 phase yet.  What I do know is the cables are aluminum, and the distance is 150 meters.

1% or 3% voltage drop ???  Your opinion?

Single phase, 3 phase?  Your opinion?

so...  Here's the possible scenarios:

> Single phase 30 AMPS

> 3 phase 10A (30A)

> 3 phase 30A (90A)

Thanks for the help!
