  1. A nation of cowards. Always have been, always will.
  2. They should do something about the Soi 6 problem.
  3. Corruption, poor heath and safety and a lack of uneforcement of laws are a symptom of a developing or undeveloped society. Don't tell Thais that, though. They'll get upset.
  4. They won't exactly choose Rolls Royce after getting caught demanding bribes for contracts.
  5. Apparently Thailand also controls prostitution through laws. Everyone knows how effective that is. Cannabis shops will be exactly the same as bars and massage parlours - monthly payments to police to keep operating.
  6. Could they spread their legs any wider?
  7. Every one of them. They couldn't lie straight in bed. A certain family should also be included on there, seeing as they treat the country's revenue like their own purse
  8. Wonder how much Stretta paid to the Toxin clan to be their PM candidate. He certainly wasn't elected by voters.
  9. Christ, you're exactly the kind of person that would fit in working for the Thai police.
  10. Will the new boyfriend be questioned?
  11. Sretta and the Thaksin party haven't really rocked the apple cart. All they've done is try and oil the cogs of the tourism industry with a bunch of daft ideas and travel the world with their hands out. I for one hope they grow a pair and show some courage (admittedly, not a quality that the Thais are known for) and take on the military.
  12. If you can't figure it out, do you really think the minions in yellow t-shirts pushing pens in government offices will be able to? A nation that takes a month to have paper printed and signed has little chance of monitoring your earnings.
  13. The amusing thing about the Siamese people is that they simply never learn from the past and evolve. Thaksin has been kicked out by the military twice already and here he is for a third time, having won back power but facing the same fate because he didn't foresee them going for him. Their whole history is that of faux democracy followed by insurrections from the military-monarchal complex.
  14. The holder of the Education visa must leave the country before applying for a Non-B. Should their Education visa be cancelled before they leave and apply? Or can they obtain the Non-B then cancel the Ed visa when they return. We asked an officer at Chaeng Wattana today and they were typically unsure and vague and said either could be done.
  15. Thailand has been run by the army-monarchical complex since the 19th century. Big business and Buddhism simply uphold the order.
  16. Perhaps just a few million of that could go towards a taxi terminal where the drivers have to queue and use meters. Also include a terminal for Grab. Suvarnabhumi taxi area has improved a lot over the last few years, so they should look at Bangkok and copy that model.
  17. They walk among us! Have you stepped outside in the last four years? Have you wore your mask the whole time?
  18. This unfinished condo can't be demolished with explosives. It requires a top down demolition, which will be very delicate due to how close it is to surrounding buildings. There are no Thai engineering companies that have the expertise. It would have to be Japanese. The cost will be millions of dollars. The developer certainly will not be willing to foot the bill and neither will the government. There are no laws to reclaim abandoned or unfinished buildings if the owner is known. In the mean time, the building is a safety hazard that is slowly crumbling. A few strong storms and chunks of concrete will begin flying off. As usual with Thais, nobody will accept responsibility. Meanwhile, part of one of the country's main tourist destinations continues to look like the remnants of an town in Gaza.
  19. I have every confidence that Thais will follow the rules and avoid working illegally in restaurants and massage parlors. Their relatives will definitely declare any income sourced from abroad and pay the statutory tax rates.
  20. Anutin likes to visit the UK occasionally. May the heavens look down favorably so he happens to bump into a dirty farang who can give him a piece of his mind without the archaic laws of his homeland protecting him.
  21. Downloaded the app out of curiosity and to compare fees. Thai Air - Bangkok to Chiang Mai round-trip = 4500 Baht AirAsia or Lion Air round trip = 2,000 Baht Most of the people who choose to use Thai Air are older nationalistic Thais who have a misguided patriotic loyalty to their flag carrier. More fool them.
  22. Stop her wisa now!!! Make girl crawl and wai NOWWW!! How dare she insulting Thai culture kaaaaa. We Thai people, we respect our culture kaaaaaa. You our guest!
  23. The difference is you have no problem with someone of another nationality running the airline. Neither do Emirates or most off the best airlines. Thai Air appoints military and police, then they wander why it's an appallingly airline.
