Why would you keep so much money in Thailand?

Apart from monthly expenses best to keep it in a bank in your home country.

and home country bank debit card. best protection

that would be a ladyboy or boy cabaret  judging by his above-knee red shorts and white belt

before you "bang'em up" or "hang'em high", find out why they resorted to begging.

they are seemingly young and inexperienced kids.

Great news.  Don't forget to give him a good clip around the ear for all the heartache that he has caused you.

I'm sure he learned a lesson and this experience must have petrified him and he is old enough to draw some conclusions from it.

Parents should show support and  love at this point.

If he were my own son, I'd hug him so tight his bones would almost crack

The Yamaha he was riding is a powerful machine that retails in Thailand for about 1.1 million baht.

what's the relevance of its retail value?!

taxi driver climbs phone tower for 7 hours

I heard that cellphone signal in Nong Plalai has been pretty weak lately but obviously it's pretty strong if you climb on top of a network tower. I get that!

What I don't get is the 7-hour phone call!

Before you get into a 'relationship' with a Thai lady

why would you even do that!? 2 hours is more than enough for them bi#ches.

its proven fact that sex with a woman in the long run costs $400 each time if she's your wife and $200 if she is your gf. In the long run that is, 1 year or longer...

just pay a ho' $50-$100 after sex so she leaves

I'm not quite 80 so I guess I can have sex for a few more years.  Now I'm investigating VA and payment to another hospital if I'm far away from a VA hospital.  They pay for my treatment here in Thailand but it has to be related to my disability and since it's heart they will cover most things that might go wrong with me -my history. 

a few more years is an understatement. I know of 2 relatives(now single) in their mid 70s with a "penis pump". They are enjoying sex almost as they did in their 30s. Of course, like everything else, "this" is something entirely depending on how you perceive fun, sex and life in general.

According to them , they both see themselves "superman"

It just makes a mockery of the law, any half witted lawyer would be able to get him off as it clearly is NOT murder under the law! I can understand the anger and the frustration but they will shoot themselves in the foot if they try to pin murder on drunk drivers. They need to get something that will hold up to the law and still carry a severe penalty.

 

It is obvious the drunken fool did not set out to kill anyone, so I cannot see how they can use murder as the charge. There must be something more fitting, death by reckless driving, accidental homicide?? There must be a charge that will fit the crime.

 

Of course this is only to be expected here anyway, as soon as something serious happens in they go like bull elephants, total knee jerk reaction, stir up a hornets nest, then two days later all is forgotten and everyone goes on their merry way. They just keep ending up with egg on their faces and looking like complete idiots.

 

Stand back, deep breath, think it through, carefully.

I agree 100% with every word

my (now ex) wife flew off the highway and ended upside down inside the car and passed out 40 feet below the highway in a stream. The other passenger, her best  girlfriend was thrown out of the windshield and apparently died instantly.

They were found some 5 hours later and airlifted to ER but eventually made it with only a few marks, nevertheless  was initially charged with second degree manslaughter because of accounts that she was drinking in a party earlier that night but since no detectable amount of alcohol present in her blood ,case was eventually dismissed(too long of a story, dont wanna get in details)

Point is, this eventually led to complications in our relationship and to our divorce.

She is happily married now( I hear) with 2 kids and sober for 15+ years.

drinking and driving is bad and followed by a fatal accident is the worst but death penalty is just too harsh for this man IMO

Humans have no right to kill another human knowingly

RIP to all deceased in this accident

They have to be joking if they think the numbers of mongers are going to be like in the good old days if they want "how much"????????

I think the era of cheap hookers has finally come to a bitter end all over the world with the internet&smartphone age,  it takes only a few taps for our formerly a village girl now in Manila or Bangkok to find out what a 30 year old hooker in Paris or Madrid charges for an hour of  "good time" and she arguably thinks she is younger and fresher therefore should ask as much as her counterpart.

Spanish man dies after having "one last massage" in Pattaya

People die every day for one reason or another but for us, the rest of the people whose fate is unknown , the only thing left  to do is to respect the man,mourn if he's close but definitely not to make fun of the person or the reason why and how he died, unless he is a scumbag murderer, child molester or terrorist  but I see no respect on this headline as I know it's fun intended with sprinkled cheap humor. We know the reference to "one last massage" without  quote marks is simply "reporting" BUT in quote marks is in reference to "sex with a happy ending". not funny

 I hope he did go with a smile ear to ear though.

RIP bro

unfortunately they have real engineers but they are told what to do by idiots and to speak up means no job so keep quiet stand back and watch all the fun unfold .its a fault with thai society the wrong people in charge . 

not only in Thailand, trust me. Corruption is only one of many  aspects that sets us humans different than other animals and it probably dates back  several thousands of years.

It is one of the many ways humans brilliantly try to solve one of their many challenges in life and it's about their survival. but it is also unfair and ultimately illegal.

Happens everywhere, even in the first world countries, maybe in different ways but for the same result! Gain or survival.
