Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha warned this morning that he might be forced to introduce the odd-even number rule for motorists in Bangkok 

When I lived in Nigeria, many moons ago, they had a problem with massive taffic jams, so they introduced the odd-even rule.  It was not long before most of the population with cars (ie rich) suddenly had 2 cars !   Great for motor companies ????

Maybe its because Thais dont get the same indoctrination as Westerners.

Maybe because opposite to the French and the English, the Germans never tried to colonalize and enslave Asian People ?

I think they need more Jewish led Media and Universitys to make them know the unbiased Version of History.

The Japanese are actually trying to rebrand this into clothing and such. It is worrying.

That is why it is known as the 'Land of the Rising Scum'

Oh, come on. This was mass genocide. Even the thickest westerner is aware of what went on in Cambodia, Tibet, Indonesia and currently in Myanmar.

What do thick westerners know about Asian history before 1950 other than the war with Japan ?

 One of my friend's little dog was killed by his neighbour's big hound. He filed both a civil and criminal case. Had to attend court four times but his neighbour didn't appear even once. Every time his lawyer said that his client was travelling abroad. My friend could see each time that his neighbour was at home! He complained to the judge who said: "How do I know who is telling the truth." My friend wanted to say that it could be easily verified by asking for the fellow's passport and checking if there was any exit stamp. But when he saw the lawyer grinning broadly, my friend wisely decided to drop the case! 

There would noyt be any exit (or entry) stamps if he was a Thai national. There might be entry and exit stamps from some foreign counties ...

Portugal, close to Coimbra.

 

Thailand can't beat that.

I just did a quick search for property near Coimbra on Zoopla (UK). Prices were higher than Thailand !  Can you give me a link to the sort of house that you are buying ?

Thailand is becoming too dangerous .....  

"THAILAND’S highest-ranked university on Wednesday confirmed that its board of directors had given conditional approval for a transgender student to wear female uniform."

Please note that Chula is no longer the highest-ranked university in Thailand !

The medical and police certificates are not needed for a non-o visa. 

 

It is my experience that a medical certificate is always required on first application. If you apply in your home country, you will need a police certificate - but not if you apply in Thailand

a sting operation in Nana, Sukhumvit Soi 3,

My map shows Soi Nana as Soi 4 on the south side of Sukhumvit. Obviously, I have  never actually visited this Soi, but friends who know the area have warned me never to go up Soi 3 because that was reserved for Arabs only..........

I couldn't find England listed either.  Have we become so bad ?

One of, if not the worst, government ever. And likely to screw the UK up for generations, apart from the top tier. Which always seems to suit some tories,

Have you not noticed that this is the plan !!  It is NOT by accident.

I just love it when they bite. 

Now we have 2 lots of data about Thailand GDP which are not comparable.  The original showed the amount of GDP in billions of USD. The New data presents annual growth rate of Thailand GDP.  The good student (from a western university) would have re-calculated the  second set of data  to give  GDP in billions of USD  and re-drawn the graph. But the stupid third rate student from and inferior university in a foreign country prevents this being done because there is a total lack of information for the years 2014-2016 inclusive.  I guess this is not surprising because they must allow anybody who can pay into his university  - not surprising that his homeland is headed down the toilet.

Good thing.  You gotta laugh. 

You gotta laugh at this submission by a second rate Thai student. He uses a graph with data that ends in 2013 for an assignment in 2018 - what a moron !!  Just copied the easy-to-find graph on the Internet. Didn't bother the update the data base and re-plot the graph as a smart westerner would do.  He would have failed the assignment for  living in the past.

I guess he wants to prove her wrong: she was not raped. Only she knows if she was or was it consensual intercourse. If she says she was then she was. Now he knows better that she was not raped, who is he to know better... oh I guess a Big Joke

You cannot prove a negative, only a positive. i.e.  It is not possible to prove that a rape did not take place; it is possible to prove that a rape did take place if evidence is available; but if evidence is not available, that does not prove that no rape took place.

Absolutely no reason to apologize.

 

Johnson himself claims he likes to speak the uncomfortable truth.

Why should anyone apologise for speaking the truth ?

You will find that the CSI LA page offers many insights. ? Take a look.

 

An interview with the mother of the young British woman can be found there, as well as an interview with the woman associated with the hostel at which the young woman stayed. There are also copies of text messages sent by the woman associated with the hostel, asking the young British woman not to speak to the press, and more.

 

 

It would be helpful if you provided a link to this page. Some of us lack familiarity with CSI LA

That is what happened though, if you read the story and understand the Thai brain.  The tourists did behave improperly and the Thai reacted inappropriately y smashing a bottle across her head, probably due to not being used to improper behaviour.

" he had lost his temper and could not control his emotions."  This is a perfectly acceptable defense  in Thailand. It means that it was not his fault. You see it time and time again. It is due, in my opinion,  to the lack of any restraint on Thai boys when they are growing up. Bit of an over-generalisation but true.

Nice to see a 1999 selfie of a self absorbed Yanky, but where are the 5 female professors that we really wanted to see  - climbing, prancing and posing on the ruins out-of-shot ?

Jeremy Hunt, for a moment, thought that his Chinese wife is Japanese. That's an easy mistake to make, Japanese and Chinese do actually look almost the same.
 

Yes _ I'm sure Boris would agree that all oriental ladies look the same !

Just as all  farang  men look the same to Thai ladies - unless they have a moustache or beard. I mean the farang ?
