This seems like a pretty large shoe dropping. Inspector Sua General Chor I guess Dew can play herself once she recovers from all her "work"? Anxiously awaiting the credits to roll so we can find out who plays these characters in the never-ending Thai RTP Lakorn, in which ALL the characters are evil, greedy and corrupt. And of course the mid- and end-credit scenes previewing Phase 5 of the RTPCU.

Donald Trump had a positive reaction to Biden's SOTU speech... “Look, he worked hard tonight, it’s not a natural thing for him, it never was, and never will be, but you’ve got to give him credit for trying. I disagree with him on most of his policies, but he put into words what he felt, and he ended up the evening far stronger than he began. Give him credit for that,” Trump said in a Truth Social post where he shared his official rebuttal." https://nypost.com/2023/02/08/trump-responds-to-bidens-state-of-the-union-address/

Who knows "what" they mean? Previously they were referred to as little ghosts (phi noi). https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/policies/40024593

Strom Thurmond, Sen. R-SC, age 100. Although he was a young scamp of 22 when he had relations with the familiy's black maid.

MTG, quite oddly attired, stands up and screams "Liar". George Santos stands up, waves his arms and says "Over here!". Brilliant SOTU speech, hit on all the right notes. Prez Joe seeks to unify and move forward. Meanwhile the official GOP response, by Gov. Sanders was a hot mess of division, and a desire to move backwards.

Maybe heed your own advice? You did use a pretty strong and vulgar insult, which thankfully for you the mod deleted. Or don't. Will follow your future posts to see how you get on saying only "good things".

Best part of this hearing was the discussion of the Chrissy Tiegen tweet about Trump, which Trump requested be taken down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWh8MyG7ows

"Informal"? Interesting. I expect we'll see that description used by Thai Immigration as well during their many vinyl-laden roundups/pressers.

Nice dodge there, never take personal responsibility, not exactly a Thai trait, for the organization which you lead and command. The wheels are falling off the clown car which is the Royal Thai Police. Five years ago very little of this (corruption scandal du jour) would have made it to the public. I smell an internet crackdown, fake news charges and, new media control laws on the horizon. "I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here." - Captain Renault.

Good find, thanks for highlighting this. It's challenging to keep up with all of the anti-cannabis crowd here baying for attention. Yes, I did a search on this member and their "cannabis" posts. Maybe that's why they used "Strange request..." in the title? It being strange that somone who is so avowedly anti-cannabis is actually thinking about a new career in (illegal - authorized selling requires a license which is not available to foreigners as far as I know) drug dealing.

My refund was deposited in my account today.

Why can't he sell it and pay you the money he owes you? Or did you loan him cannabis? Accepting weed as payment seems almost as stoopid as providing unsecured loans.

Rosaviatsia Approves Aircraft Cannibalization LONDON – Rosaviatsia, The Federal Air Transport Agency, has given the green light for aircraft cannibalization to go ahead as sanctions continue to bite Russia. As per Aviation Week, this approval from Rosaviatsia means that parts from grounded aircraft can be re-installed on aircraft that are still in service. These parts would become spare parts in effect, which allows the installation of non-original spare parts on Russian-operated foreign-made commercial aircraft without approval needed. https://aviationsourcenews.com/analysis/rosaviatsia-approves-aircraft-cannibalization/ Punished By Western Sanctions, Russia's Airlines Are Showing More Cracks And More Problems On January 9, a 4-year-old Airbus A320 operated by the Russian airline S7 was flying from the Siberian city of Bratsk to Moscow when it encountered a problem: Its toilet system malfunctioned. The flight was forced to divert to the city of Kazan for an unscheduled landing. "If spare parts are used, but with resources and with a verifiable history, that’s also no big deal," he said. "We take a plane somewhere in Bolivia, Uganda, or [Burma], disassemble it, remove the necessary components, carefully pack it up and deliver it. https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-aviation-industry-problems-western-sanctions/32244641.html

My most recent 90-Day OL (CW) experience, applied 8 Jan 2023, ~ 08:00, APPROVED email received 9 Jan 2023 ~ 19:00. Maybe the quickest turnaround for me so far?

It's weird how so many anti-cannabis members find their way to this forum. "I'm not here to find weed, honest.", and just can't resist offering medical and lifestyle advice. And the "advice" is laced with a heavy dose of passive-agressive posturing. Not sure how the OP even found this video, or how they can justify taking advice from a 31 year old loser, with no job, no girl/boy-friend, living in his mom's basement. The dude is somewhat funny, even though the joke is on him, but he does give off a pretty skeevy vibe. Could be the tarp, duct tape and shovel in the trunk? I might take legal or financial advice from this clown before I'd take his lifestyle recommendations. Maybe the mods should just limit these sorts of posts to a single thread, titled, of course, Reefer Madness.

But, but the "government" might not function with the remaining three "honest" Thais?

It has an unusual flavor profile, sweet/sour/spicy, for western palates. And it has to be made fairly carefully, adding the tamarind juice at just the right time after boiling. And many chefs/restos have different recipes, especially with regards to the prik kaeng In twenty-years, as tastes change, this might end up being a top ten dish?

"Temporary"? Was the Suthep gang granted "temporary" release? SUTHEP AND AIDES GRANTED BAIL, 2 DAYS AFTER SEDITION VERDICT Suthep and seven of his lieutenants who campaigned alongside him during the “Shutdown Bangkok” street protests in 2013 and 2014 were deemed to pose no flight risk by the Court of Appeals. Their bond was set at 800,000 baht each. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/politics/2021/02/26/suthep-and-aides-granted-bail-2-days-after-sedition-verdict/ Even Pinky managed to get her ankle monitor removed. She did spend three months "behind bars" before being granted realses on bail. "The actress told the Court that she found it difficult to work in the entertainment industry while wearing an EM tag. The Court agreed to her request." https://thethaiger.com/news/national/political-activists-seek-justice-after-pinky-allowed-to-remove-em-tag Plenty of hand-wringing on this matter, even the PM has weighed in, which has surprised me. Quite a few ultra-nationalists are blaming and shaming the parents. The PtB seem worried about martyrs even though they have been easily dealt with in the past. Time, and erasure from the history always do the trick.

Exactly. There is no National Anti-Malfeasance Commission, just the little-used, only driven on Sundays - OK, just one Sunday ever, NACC. https://www.nacc.go.th/english Might as well just change the name of the country to Malfeasancestan.

No dog in this hunt but the timeline is curious... alleged "crime" took place in 2012 relevant law passed in 2018 indicted in 2023 "Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime" Lavrentiy Beria, the most ruthless and longest-serving secret police chief in Joseph Stalin’s reign of terror in Russia and Eastern Europe, bragged that he could prove criminal conduct on anyone, even the innocent.

FWIW, it was reported that Chaiyanat Kornchayanant, AKA Tuhao, had been granted Thai citizenship so I'm not certain he needed a visa? How he gained citizenship should probably be investigated, or not. Chaiyanat is a Chinese businessman who was granted Thai citizenship after marrying a senior police officer and is believed to be behind a Chinese triad dealing in drugs and other criminal activities. https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/general/40023752

Yellow INOP stickers. https://twitter.com/galcpmedia/status/1571420764384919558?lang=en The aircraft Azur and Aeroflot are flying to Thailand are owned by Russian companies. I think many of Aeroflot's 767s were leased but recently purchased. Other leased aircraft, aka "stolen" (777/A350), are only used on domestic routes. These Azur aircraft are flying to a lot of places besides THL. MLE, CMB. Yes, I would think those 309 pax on the aborted flight will be extra lubricated for their flight home, with resounding applause once the flight lifts off.

One assumes that the RTP VVIP service, which included a jetway greeting, escort through Imm, help with bags and a walk-through at Customs, might have been a good way to avoid pesky limits?

Tip Jars 2.0?

My favorite part of the video, ~ 1:15, is when he sees the cop behind him change lanes an immediately says "oh <deleted>". Also suprised he only stopped once for gas, that '85 Caddy must be a guzzler.
