Don't drink and drive  no sympathy 

Deserves what is coming to him luckily no others involved 😱

A bit over the top news sensation considering his fault for not having insurance plus his hospital bill is now covered by a Go fund me contributions 

Looks like people never learn on not having travelling insurance 

Used Fedex if required quickly  

Or recorded if not in a hurry 

Both no problem  on being received at the other end 

May this be a lesson to others always keep your passport money and valuables 

Personally on you or where you can see them 😏 when travelling 

Never put in bags in the hold 

A expensive lesson learned

Yes agree with the noise of rooms being refurbished thankfully only allowed daytime  only 

Other wise residents here respect others peace and quite

Good Condo management here 

The Thai tourist board always find ways of producing high tourist numbers especially from China 

Need to get the Crystal 🔮  ball out for 2024 

They should carry out a survey after the High season has finished 

And find out was it worth it financial wise staying open until 0400hrs 

Paying staff extra plus sales 🤑

Nothing changes over the burning season here  in Thailand 

It's the same thing every year the Thai people just put up with it 

It's a way of life here  how ever  unpleasant  

Same with the PMI in Bangkok answer wear a face mask 

Well no surprises there would be if he declared he had nothing but his retired salary 🤑

Probably obvious to most who work in the  bar industry to vote for longer opening hours 🙄 

Will be interesting to see once it happens if it pays off people drinking to 0400hrs  🤑

Looks like Lisa Hamilton is only thinking  of the money 💰 with more Chinese Tourists 

With that concept Indian Malaysian and European countries get the same their policeman protecting their Tourists in Thailand 

What kind of message does that send out 

Thailand’s ⁰police not capable of doing the job 😱

Probably some clown in government thought it would be a good idea to encourage more  Chinese tourists to come 

Now back tracking on releasing how stupid it looks as if the Thai police are incapable of doing their jobs 😀 

Totally agree it should be up to the Provincial Governors to decide the opening and closing hours for alcohol consumption 

Especially if tourist areas involved  🥳

You too need to learn from a King Charles and read up on this shameful history.

 

The events to which Charles referred and this thread related did not happen hundreds of years ago, they took place on the period between the end of WW2 and Kenyan Independence in 1962.

 

People who lived through this history are alive today, victims of the atrocities are alive today, people who lost parents and siblings to these atrocities are alive today.

 

 

Yes agree this happened in the 50s so accept your point 

I was thinking more  of the days of slavery over 200 years ago which some people can't get over the past and the ones in the present want financial reward 

For some thing that did  not affect them in the here and now 

The bars staying open until 0400hrs who are the tourists they are hoping  to attract 

guys like myself in the 80s - 90s  working in the Middle East 

Not to many around  these days 

Most families  will be in  bed

Same  as the old ex-pats 

Plus people will go out later in the evening  but to sit in a bar until 0400hrs 😱

This happened hundreds of years ago those who would need the compensation are long gone 

It's now all about Money 💰 for those not affected these countries get plenty of foreign aid from the UK 

it's about time these woke people wake up and get on with their lives 

Mind you King Charles  with all his wealth could give a few pounds if he is feeling guilty about where his wealth came from 🥳

It's the same subject going on for years getting tough on the Mafia and foreign

Gangs not going to work to much back handers  brown envelopes 🤑 Plus people in high places involved 

going on its all talk not much action 

Yes I have personally.   experienced the elephant 🐘 ride many years ago up in Chang Mai 

Once was enough I can still feel the movement when the Elephant was going down hill 😱

Never again 

Truth be known most can't afford to return to Thailand 🤑

Most Will have debts needed to be paid back. Recruitment and money

lenders 😱

They never Die but just fade away 

Wait that was some one else 😳

Read the story and Mis communication comes to mind 🤔
