    Red handed! Nice pun but the writer but he or she will probably get locked up for that quip.

    Why are soldiers doing police work anyway?

    I bet down south they won't catch anyone yellow handed.

    cops do very nicely out of illegal gambling. another reason to legalize it, along with prostitution. kind of ironic to legalize something to stop the police from profiting from it.

  2. what happens if you call one of those traffic hotlines? do  they tell you which roads to use? can imaging they would need a lot of people manning the phones. perhaps some sort of online system showing where congestion is the worst would be a good idea. on the other hand people using their smart phones to monitor traffic while driving is probably not such a good idea.

    again a lot of b**lshit here about this topic. no police can you fine, only immigration and it will go to court. 

    helping your wife is not work, especially if it is a help what takes minutes,  definition of work is different from helping somebody.

    but here the people like to share rumors and stupid opinions.

    abd I know what i am talking about, I had 6 officer from IMO in our restaurant, and I not paid anything or get any problem

     

    i have been working for a franchise in thailand for the last 9 years. almost every location of the franchise has been raided by cops or labor office officers. it is almost impossible to tell where they come from. almost every time they want a fine on the spot. gotta pay it or you have to go through the courts. i ended up going through the courts. trust me it is better to pay a fine up front.

    If you're going to go in there and help out a little then why not just get a work permit?  You're married so you only need two thai staff and your wife is one of them.  List yourself as a "manager" then you're sorted.

    sounds like you got off lightly. i got done with the wrong address in my work permit. cost me about 80 000thb. how much was the fine? a work permit will run you more than 100 000thb per year so it is cheaper to just not do any work here. paid or unpaid.

    But Mauro chose to continue Chavez' socialist policies, perhaps encouraged by authority to enact laws without going through Parliament and to reduce the powers of the Minister of Finance. Venezuela's economy hasn't improved under Mauro and the people are correct to hold Mauro responsible.

    they should hold the price of crude oil responsible. if it stayed the same everything would be ok now.

  6. artificially low interest rates cause problems in many ways. many governments believe they have to keep rates low to stimulate economies but in reality the economies are sick due to the governments and reserve banks manipulating them. govt needs to let the market place set the interest rate where there is an equilibrium. gonna be some initial pain but it would be for the long term good.

    Mauro appears to be a fabulously incompetent man, who is running his country into the ground. Many other countries have dealt with facing oil prices, and moved on. He seems to be incapable. He seems to be quite a clown. Good on the people for this demonstration. Clowns need to be called out!

    mauro did not make this problem. chavez did when he started giving handouts instead of encouraging his people to be independent. despite being a fertile country they import 96% of their food. fine if you have the oil reserves to pay for it.

    China will slowly swallow Honk Kong up and into it's system. Whether it be this year or the next. 

     

    I guess Great Britain should have taken this Lease out on Hong Kong for 200 years and not just 100 years, when they had the control and power to do so. 

    yes, to all you ferangs out there leasing your houses from your bargirls for 30 years be ware.
