    His hands were not tied to his back. i guess its just a cynical anti Thailand joke.

    As somebody else pointed out, most likely its a suicide. So really no need for your sarcasm when somebody a fello farang took his own life.

    I think you are mistaken, suicide made by foreigner is always done by jumping from balcony while being naked.

    In Thailand, Mel Gibson's movie is adjusted a little, when an assailant is not known.  They just grab a Burmese laborer and fabricate a case against them.  Then, collect the reward, and declare Thailand a safe tourist destination again.  ????

    That's a big win win for TOT and RTP every time, and the thai perpetrator can keep on with his serial killings.

    of course there was more than one,  only time you see one on one is when they are beating the <deleted> out of their girlfriend/wife, and a- holes standing by videoing it,

    I totally agree, but if anybody interfering the wife-beater it's 90% possible that both will attack the "rescuer". 

    We live in a 3. world country and need to accept their stone-age mentality.  

     

  4. This is a scam made by Lazada against non-Thais! 

    When a non-Thai buyer cancel any item ordered, money you have transferred will be returned and deposited to your wallet and not to your bank AC.

    I have tried multiple times to transfer from wallet to my bank AC by clicking on a button, but it's not working.

    That way they force you to spend it on another Lazada item and not on any other competitors like Shopee, Ali Express or Ebay.

    My question: "Is this "scam" even legal according to international laws"?

    1997 came to mind. 

    I remember that economic crash in 97 who was made by retired Army general Chavalit Yongchaiyudh "Big Jiew" Thailand's 22nd Prime Minister of Thailand from 1996 to 1997.

    Why is the thai economy collapsing when army generals trying to run this country? Any conspiracy theory's?  

    Rumors that Chavalit made a huge profit from the thai bath collapsing in 97 after he changed all his savings to US$ just days before the crash. Can anybody confirm this?

    Other men prefer married women - usually less drama (if wife/husband doesn´t find out).

    Beer bars in Pattaya are crowded with married thai "ladys".

    The thai husband is taking care of they're children in a apartment room while his wife is busy with her customers.

    Never heard about any jealousy so far, I guess this police didn't payed the pimp husband enaugh

    This article was surprising, and I don't get surprised easily.

     

    I'm sure in a few days there will be another article, "We want the richest and less problematic tourists, so all travelers must show 300,000 at the airport.  Unless you have a Chinese passport, then you will be labeled VIP and given a free visa for 100 years."  

    I hope he does and make the final nail in the coffin to Thailand as a tourist destination.

    The first thing that the guy (the tech who didn't want to work) asked me who came out to complain was, "do you have fish allergy?"

    The conversation then went something like this:

    Me: No

    Him: How do you know?

    Me: I know

    Him: Maybe you have some fever for eat fish?

    Me: I don't eat fish

    Him: Because you have allergy?

    Me: No, because I don't like the taste of it

    Him: Because of allergy. I can not make scan.

    Me: I never eat fish, I don't like the taste

    Him: Yes

    Me: Yes, what?

    Him: You no eat fish

    Me: Yes

    Him: Mumbled and walked off.

    In other news, I went back today to get the results. They tried to charge me again for seeing the doctor for reading the results, after they charged me last night for a doctor that didn't know how to read the results.

    There is no problem in my brain according to the CT, but they did find a cyst in my sinus cavity. I'm going back tomorrow to see yet another doctor (and another doctor fee) regarding ear, nose and throat. Only he can decode this cyst it seems.

    I was then told that my head problem was because of a red mark on my skin (no hair) on the back of my head and that it was a problem with my skin. It is my birth mark. I told them this and got "yes" as a reply and then handed a ticket to see another doctor tomorrow.

    I often wonder how some of these people have made it this far along without accidentally killing themselves. Yes.

    I often wonder how this doctors have got their medical licence, some of them don't have a clue what they are doing.

    A friend of mine in Thailand has been selling things through his own website and ebay for over 10 years now. He makes enough to live on (he's not a big spender) but he is far from getting rich. Personally, I couldn't live on what he makes, but it would make a nice supplementary income.

    His items are high value items that he gets made for between 1500-3000 thb, and then sells for $250-450 US. Business is very hit and miss, and some months he cashes in, and other months makes virtually nothing.

    A Ukrainian friend of his also started doing this (although different products) and has now moved on to large scale exports to the Ukraine and other countries. He has made loads of money, and when I say that, I mean he is loaded even by western standards.

    It can be done, but with the cost of postage, high value items are the way to go if sending to Europe and N.America.

    I know a guy who know somebody who heard in a beer-bar that a guy exporting containers of stuff to Ukraine and make loads of money. Same, same but different guy or what?

    No matter what a Thai government hospital charged I would never use one.  I been to one with my wife  The doctor was an idiot.  I knew more than he did.

    Agree, I believe they use some wannabe doctors with counterfeit diploma and certification dokuments. 

    A doctor at a local government hospital once checked my ear infection with an otoscope and he didn't see anything wrong, I grabbed the scope and tried to open the light but it was broken. Why did he get mad at me when checking his equipment?

    He was cheating and lie in the first place?

    I refused to pay for the "fake" consultation and walked out without waiting for the prescribed medisin.

    Lesson learned no more government hospitals when i am sick.
