  1. Not so much a drop in arrivals, but more of a find accommodation that's not so tall
  2. Taking the dodgy paperwork to a safer place...
  3. The post is about Vaping, correct, but the argument regarding the illegality of them and the complete removal of them, leaving the far more harmful alternatives is questionable
  4. That's the workforce, compounded by Chinese made construction materials/methods.
  5. Was watching a documentary yesterday on the Miami building collapse... it seems they used a similar concrete prefabricated panel method as the Bangkok Chinese condo development. This has a tubular construction as apposed to solid construction. Made for cheapness in less materials used and more lightweight, supposedly ideal for high rise buildings. The Bangkok condo collapse being built by Chinese & Italian developers were using the same panels.
  6. I beg to differ.... The latest regulations, introduced in 2021, mandate seismic-resistant designs for buildings in Bangkok
  7. Maybe not on that scale, but if building fail and roads turn into roller coasters it doesn't say much for construction methods in Thailand.
  8. I'm not a construction expert but I do have friends who are in the large scale construction business.. They tell me many safety features are ignored including the latest earthquake rules due to costs.. so unlike you I do know what I'm talking about
  9. I wasn't talking about now... why do you think I mentioned WWII... fact
  10. Nothing changes so nothing changes... expect more.
  11. lining some pockets... sorted
  12. She's an expert in disaster management then.
  13. The first block... then the next, maybe even using help with search dogs and thermal imaging cameras.
  14. Is that why they still construct less than safe infrastructure and buildings?
  15. This could be the aftermath in Thailand, but will the government take note and force construction standards...
  16. Do you think they'd have bonuses paid into their own accounts... these are professionals remember.
  17. Foreigners are complaining about past dictators being stylised on T-shirts upsetting tourists from those locations, and the history reminder.. If she sold T-shirts with Japanese soldiers forcing slave labour in occupied Thailand during WWII she could have Thais complaining too..
  18. Noticed the other day our local authority has started using EV garbage trucks... now we only have to filter out the banging of bins instead of the revving diesel engine..
