  1. Yeah, but the smart thing to do for Boon Rawd and ThaiBev is to let the nascent craft brewing industry to thrive. Let these craftbrewers take all the risk, sort out what styles work, then buy them out when they reach a certain level of success, let them manage the sub-brand going forward. Win-win-win. But I fear the Thai patrician "thought-process" is that "we know what's best".
  2. There are many advantages for having been granted a Royal Warrant of Appointment. ThaiBev and Boon Rawd both hold such a warrant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Thai_Royal_Warrant_holders
  3. Thanks. Assuming I landed on the right LINE account, prices seem to be 2X+ what you said.
  4. No. If this bill does not pass a second and third reading then the status quo will remain as is. Cannabis will not revert to the Narcotics list, and the current free-for-all will continue. The monkeys in the National Assembly are throwing their feces, and there is a lot of of buffalo trading going on. The bill might be shelved if BJT can't whip the votes. Some are looking for a medical-only compromise, which would be a huge defeat for Anutin and the BJT. Might not be a bad idea to "stock up"?
  5. Can you share the name, and the dispensary name? I get a blank page on that LINE add, Bas, photo of chihuahua.
  6. VPN with U.S. IP. https://ustvgo.tv/fox-hd-live-streaming/ Works fine. Interesting, Eagles vs. Texans in Houston, same time.
  7. We used to get a lot MLB games here, including the World Series. Now you'll have to stream it. There are plenty of stream available. Just search the interwebs. First one I found, not sure if it will work yet. https://mlbtv.pro/live/houston_astros-philadelphia_phillies I think Game 5 starts at 07:15 this morning. Tied at 2:2, Mattress Jack's 10 million dollar wager is still hot. I love how people - usually the really odd ducks here who are "offended" - get worked up over the term "World Series". It was coined in 1903 as a promotional thing. Get over it.
  8. Flash Sale 12 hours Official Gillette Store on LazMall Mach 3+ 12-pack, 575 THB (from 595 sale price, from 849 MSRP)
  9. While everyone is entitled to their opinion, and that's all the OP is expressing - they provided zero facts - I think the OP is highly misinformed, and a bit hysterical. By their own admission they've gone down a "rabbit hole". High volume, machine-trimmed, vacuum-packed buds have a particular appearance, which is not indicative of the use of chemical PGRs. I've examined a decent amount of imported cannabis here in dispensaries, and none has had the look (lack of trichomes), preponderance of orange-ish calyxes, aroma/smell (lack thereof), or feel of what is puported to be PGR cannabis. Most commercial cannabis is grown indoors in the U.S. due too factors like licensing, security, cleanliness, climate control, year-round growing. I think this PGR scare-mongering was more of a "thing" ~ 5 years ago.
  10. My interpretation would be no. Unless you have been granted a license to import cannabis seeds, and meet all the import paperwork mentioned in the article. "Deputy Government Spokesperson Traisuree Traisoranakul said that other restrictions previously stipulated remain enforceable, such importers being required to apply for an import permit from the Department of Agriculture." I understand this regulation to refer to bulk or wholesale seed importers and resellers, rather than individuals. Yes, you can order and accept delivery of imported seeds, with minimal risk. Many people report success. And there are dozens of legally approved importers, with large stocks and offerings. And there are quite a few grey market importers. You can get pretty much any strain here now, and if you can't, just ask an importer to get them for you. Yes, you will pay a bit of uplift.
  11. It would help if you could share any details on the strains you've dabbled with. Broadly speaking, an Indica-dominant strain may be less paranoia-inducing than a Sativa-dominant strain. Indica-dominant strains are widely available here. Your query is quite popular in the wider internet, where you would no doubt find some valuable info. For example... Google: Top 10 Marijuana Strains That Don't Cause Paranoia ^ Blue Cheese is (in most genetics) 80% Indica/20% Sativa.
  12. YouTube video description says... Business name ????‍???? Kai Yok Krok, Pattaya Branch There are gazillions of well-endowed, scantily-clad chefs if YT, FB, TT are any indicator. Some are quite brave IMO, what with the potential for damage from hot oil.
  13. Well done. One sword thrust, two kills. Will be interesting if she suffers any retribution from the regime. One ticket on the "Han Lay Express" to Canada?
  14. Imagining Abhisit blaming Prayut for the Bangkok Massacre. Lots of handwringing on this one though. Surely Prawit bears some, or the bulk of, the responsibility?
  15. Been there, done that... https://aseannow.com/topic/1096851-video-chaos-outside-central-world-as-armed-man-releases-snakes-bringing-traffic-to-a-standstill/
  16. I was wrong, the Gillette FlagShip store is still on Lazada...for some reason I couldn't find it with a browserr/PC but easy to find using the Lazada mobile app. Mach 3+ 12-pack on sale currently for 679, from 849. Decent price. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i2860580917.html?spm=a1zawg.24863640.table_all.49.41464edfuutONH&spm=a2o4m.10453683.cutImages_1449346023.3 My last purchase was ~ 6 June 2022, two (2) 12-packs, 595 each. I think that was the 6/6 sale promotion. Maybe wait for the 11/11 sale promotion?
  17. Do we ever see any follow-up on these charity spectacles? Toon Bodyslam got some pushback on his announced charity run to benefit education (109 Km, 109 students benfiting) - I'm not sure that one ever made it past the idea phase? That pushback highlighted that these sorts of events are really just window-dressing, making people feel good for a day or two, but do little to addresss underlying issues. And why no follow-up on the money he "raised", for hospitals, running the length of the country in 2017?
  18. Good question. Notably Prayut does not stand for election as an MP, nor is he the leader of the PPP. The Thai people are like the frog and the pot of water. And I'm struggling to understand why there are no local (provincial) elections (other than Bangkok and maybe Pattaya). With governors appointed by Bangkok. Does the amart think the country folk are just not smart enough to be trusted with a vote?
  19. Maybe start in the prisons, where 80% (85% for women) of the 300,000 + inmates are low level drug users. This sounds a tad alarming. Need to hear a lot more about these "screening centers".
  20. Smart move by the police. Amazing how well informed they are on the routing of drug shipments. A few busts makes it look like they are doing something. Reducing the supply helps raise the price, which in some reports has dipped to 14 baht per pill, form the already historical low of 20 baht per pill. The country runs on meth, and it is sad that entire generations are meth heads.
  21. Caption of the photo... "Nothing to see here." I'm imagining the leader of a rival political party surviving such a scandal. They would have had all their assets siezed, forced to flee the country, their party disbanded, and found guilty of spurious charges in absentia. At least there's one thing he won't be getting when he retires.
