  1. The case highlights the dangers of making false reports in Thailand's busy tourist destinations. Beware those gold losses along beach road.
  2. Probably the same as air pollution, coughs, sneezing, sore throat, congested lungs, tight breathing.
  3. The young man, who works in the fishing industry, asserts that criminals coerced him into carrying the package. BS... no-one coerces you to do anything... if or when you get to the airport you ask for help.
  4. 3 months in jail... that'll stop them
  5. Authorities have arrested three Chinese nationals for illegally entering Thailand while carrying a large cache of foreign mobile phone SIM cards, seizing a total of 8,628 cards during the operation. Give them a day in a cell for each sim-card
  6. The fiasco will continue, he will have enemies withing the force, he will be watching his back instead of doing police work.
  7. The stretch of road where the crash occurred is a downhill section with a sharp curve, long regarded as a high-risk area for traffic accidents. The severity of the crash reflected the challenging road conditions combined with driver fatigue. Maybe some speed control measures are needed.. rumbles strips, humps in the road... something ?
  8. I have the opposite opinion... Trump is the only one setting things right...
  9. Thailand’s New Year road safety crackdown has recorded nearly 4,000 cases entering the probation system over six days, with drink-driving accounting for the vast majority. That's how many got caught, I wonder how many didn't get stopped?
  10. The Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) will celebrate National Children's Day 2026 by opening its bases to the public and showcasing fighter jets, aircraft, and military equipment nationwide on January 10, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m Perfect venue for childrens day...
  11. I guess they could store them in the moored aircraft carrier... you know, just in-case they're needed.
  12. I guess by the last day of the dangerous time most idiots had removed themselves from the road, one way or another
  13. The video, shared on TikTok by @koopatrooping, quickly went viral. The sad times we live in...
  14. prompted by the US invasion of Venezuela. What invasion... did I miss something?
  15. I was thinking the same thing, the weed shop up the road from me is open-all hours, even at 04:30 when I pass it on my way to the park there's always a few motorcycles outside with youngsters in the shop. Not sure how long the licences they have run for? I bet my last baht the new rues will be over-looked when the time comes around to renew
  16. Thai food businesses in the United States are poised for growth in 2026, fuelled by an increasing trend of dining out. Talking to many Americans, the cost of dining out is rising sharply, many who would dine out frequently now only go out for special occasions, or limited times per month. The working class are feeling the pinch on their salaries, the first thing that suffers is the spending.
  17. Key Takeaways Foreign visitors to Thailand fell by 7.23% in 2025 compared to 2024. I envisage another drop this year... Those who have come, conquered and have seen it all... some will repeat, many will seek other destinations.
  18. Local Thai vendor Sirirat Samjai expressed distrust in Cambodia's intentions, voicing readiness to evacuate if conflict resumes. Maybe they want to go home and make a living ?
  19. Meanwhile, former Cambodian opposition leader Sam Rainsy has made headlines by claiming on social media that Cambodian leader Hun Sen could be next in line for similar action. Dream, dream, dream...
  20. The incident occurred while he was taking photos at the top of Na Muang 2 Waterfall, I hope it wasn't while taking a selfie...
