  1. They (Thaksin) tried limiting the days allowed in Thailand back early 2000's. The issue was the IO's where there trying to count days, which took way too long and had immigration ques all backed up, so that didn't work well and was ended. Maybe now that it's all computerized they could do it, but I doubt it. Immigration keeps rules vague so IO's can make up their own interpretation of the rules to keep the cash flowing.
  2. Don't know why you know dozens and dozens of male that cant get a date in the USA or afraid to speak to a woman. Both my nephew's are in their 30's and are married to beautiful ladies. We bounce back and forth from to the US and when in the US I dont see the girls acting as you portray. My other two newphews are in their 20's and one is dating a really sweet girl. Sure there are always the few, but the majority that I meet are nice normal girls. I travel a lot when in the US and just dont see what you're saying. I know many younger guys in the US that are happily married, how is that if the girls are so bad?
  3. Are you trying to say this guy was smoking weed? If so, then you have no idea what weed does to people. If Alcohol, ya baa, sure a person can act like this, but with weed really dont think so.
  4. When you catch 64 people and 41 are illegal thats an issue!
  5. 30 kids died to save 1?? Where do you get this? that would mean that out of 100,000 kids only about 3,400 would live. There is no such thing as turbo cancer, there are some aggressive cancers (lung, Prostate). Here are some quotes from doctors John Schiller, an NIH researcher who pioneered research in cancer-causing viruses, said that pathogens known to cause cancer can remain in the body long-term. However, respiratory viruses, such as COVID or influenza, are not believed to cause cancer and typically do not linger in the body. "You can never say never, but that sort of … virus does not suggest being implicated in cancers," Schiller said. Xuesong Han, scientific director of health services research at the American Cancer Society, said that an increase in late-stage cancers during the pandemic was likely due to patient delaying or skipping care — either for COVID-19 concerns or economic reasons. Cultural factors, language barriers, and discrimination may have also played a role. However, Han also acknowledged that the biological mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, could be affecting cancer risk. https://www.advisory.com/daily-briefing/2024/06/12/covid-cancer https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2024/01/09/cdc-hasnt-linked-covid-19-vaccine-to-cancer-surge-fact-check/72085906007/ https://www.factcheck.org/2024/05/still-no-evidence-covid-19-vaccination-increases-cancer-risk-despite-posts/
  6. The increase is from people coming from other areas of Thailand for treatment. Before they had no choice but to get care at the designated hospital, now they can go where they want, which people will go to the place with the best reputation.
  7. I'm not missing the point. The issue (point) is that the immigration system in the USA is broke and needs to be revised. I understand completely well you need migrant workers for the work US citizens dont want to do. The US needs to revamp the system make it quicker/easier to bring in both skilled an unskilled labor and allow a diffident minimum wage for migrant visa holders. If you just let anyone in without checks then you get criminals in the mix. Here is what happened in Florida during the last two hurricanes. Over the last three weeks, deputies patrolled the area where more than 500,000 residents live. An evacuation order had asked residents to leave for their safety. As they left Gualtieri said he assured the community his looting patrols deputies would prevent "those who wanted to wreak further havoc" in the Pinellas coast. As of Monday, 63 suspects have been arrested on 93 different charges. At least 41 were illegal immigrants arrested for allegedly looting and scamming victims, according to the sheriff. Gualtieri said the illegal immigrants who are from Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, Honduras, Venezuela and other countries, were in Pinellas County "to take others property."
  8. There still are programs that allow for migrant workers and these workers are legal workers, they enter the USA with a work visa mostly the H1B If there is a law and you're not following the law then it's illegal, that its! The Thai police do nothing about under age (no license) kids driving motorcycles, so according to you that makes it legal?
  9. I dont know why your friends place closed up as Thailand as been strict on staying in Thailand long term on a tourist visa and visa exempt since the early 2000's, so no new crackdowns on that. really I dont believe that many people got denied or stop coming to Thailand to be able to close down businesses. You do know Thailand has had 30+ million visitors this year. Are you sure Covid wasn't the issue for lack of customers? lastly immigration is doing their jobs. They always say that you need to stay in Thailand on the proper visa. Trying to live in Thailand full time on tourist visa is not the correct visa and is going to be an issue at some point. Yes, immigration can legally deny anyone, a visa doesn't guarantee entry.
  10. ok. you're right!! So please now call Trump and tell him to stop or you will.....
  11. you're friends got screwed from crack downs? What crack downs?
  12. Musk has said a few times that he didn't buy (twitter/X) it to make money, he bought it to keep free speech alive. When advertisers threatened to pull adds, Musk told them to go f@#$ themselves.
  13. you cant compare a vicious crime like rape against a plant that grows naturally.
  14. No, I dont recall him fleeing the country. I do recall him being in the USA for a UN meeting when the army rolled into Bangkok.
  15. Cooperate Taxes are currently 20% they will be reduced to 15% and incentives will be put in place for lower tax rates if related to certain markets. So they are lowering taxes for corporations. Please try and keep up!
  16. LOL... a little,,,,5'6" 171lbs, but you wont believe me anyway.
  17. you're very arrogant thinking that you know everything and everyone else is lying!!
  18. you're an a@# I lost very good friends!, one was like a brother to me. I could prove it, but I'm not going to post a link to their obituaries.
  19. and should we do the same for people that drink Alcohol? what about people that drink too much soda or eat too many snacks and get overweight. Should we hold medial care from them too?
  20. it's sad you dont realize healthy people died. I lost two very good friends. Both were in good shape, not that old, the one went to the gym 3 times a week, neither were over weight. One was 64 and the other was 56, both had wives, children, and grand kids.
  21. dont need to guess it's says in the article, 714 Thais
  22. really? what product or service is the business providing? None! so it's not a real company it's only opened to get around foreign land ownership!
  23. yes, it's ok until it ain't, kind a like what they are doing now with the business.
  24. why does fluoride need to be in the water? Most people drink bottled water these days or they have a filter system in their house therefore most people are not drinking tap water, this is just one of the examples of government waste of money and resources. Kids get fluoride from toothpaste, mouthwash, plus natural ways ( grapes, black tea, spinach, potatoes, soda, etc) why does there need to be more?
