I am a guest in Thailand. It's internal political and/or criminal reporting is none of

my business. The above writers seem to force themselves into things that belong to the Thai government and it's leaders. If the above writers have so much to say about the goings  on in Thailand perhaps they might take a look at the goings on in the USA that involves some of it's highest ranking "citizens".

Ladies, Girls, Boys, whatever, if sexually assaulted/abused don't wait 26 years to report it. Try trooping down to your local police station or at least tell your parents, unless one of them is the abuser RIGHT AWAY, LIKE NOW.

Read the news. Comey broke the story to preclude his own post election problems. He disobeyed Mrs Secretary of meeting Bill Clinton on stalled plane (to discuss her post election position). Our (US) Government is so corrupt that with the help of $$$$$ and Lawyers and Political contacts, criminals can evade prosecution for almost forever. Sound familiar to us long term visitors.?

One of the benefits of being old (76) and far from handsome, I'm rarely hit up by Taxi drivers, most bar ladies and even the make believe bar 'ladies'. Old age does have it's benefits.

Not just Bangkok, all of Thailand is subsiding. Buy high and not on the 13th floor but at least 160 meters above sea/river level.

So many of the replies that respondents claim were beatings they received as children in Christian Schools are pure unadulterated bullshit. I've had a ruler across the knuckles a time or two but no desk legs, etc. I feel for the boy but how about the Middle Eastern children laying in the dust bleeding out from Terrorist bullets.

It's not the boats that are the problem, it's their trailers parked hither and yon and under the overpass.

I'm allergic to Wasp stings and need hospitalization if stung. If any begin nest building in our wooded yard we use Wasp spray (I don't do the deed, usually a nephew if called upon). This is long before the big nest is established.

Come on folks. Single lane unlighted local street with a person laying about in center road. Headlight distance 150 feet, no much room for braking even after feeling the 'bump'. If the 'victim' was that intoxicated, his friends should have walked him home. Maybe the driver could have seen the 'gang'.

If you believe this story, I've got some beach front property on Mt. Everest I can sell you.

Gee, look what I chased onto a 150 foot cliff drop. Now for a nice rape. Maybe I'll confess and get off with 5 years. What do these Thai Judges think if this victim was their wife, daughter, female relative? Oh yeah, Farang, she's not dead, just crippled and raped.

Gee look what I found helpless at 150 feet after I chased her.. Good time to sexually assault her helpless body. Maybe I'll notify authorities to find her (only redeeming factor). What if this woman was the daughter of these lenient "judges"?

In case you're wondering, I'm sure glad I live in Thailand.

Just the place to advertise anti-tank weapons. Lots of tank killers follow Thai News.?

Recognizing that the mother is mentally deficient, in addition to effective drugs, how about sterilization for mummy?.

I knew that Britishbrickbat (or whatever) was going to have dire consequences on the Brit tourists. That "hat" appears to be the leavings of  an American Brown bear.

Have a couple of Cold San Miguel lights and cool down man.

Standard procedure is to shoot suspected sick dogs, willy suckers are hard to chase, head along allows Vets to determine if animal has rabbies. Why not take carcass for proper disposal unknown, entire write up a sad joke. Thais,  Koreans, and Filipinos (and maybe others) eat dog meat, usually purchased at markets. Dog meat is usually prepared with spices,onions, and sauces, served with rice. Can't tell it's dog meat until you have developed a taste for it.

This rule keeps you from hitting your mate up for 800,000 one day, getting a letter, and paying your mate back. Better be a good mate.
