UbonEagle

Absolutely mind boggling (if true...) that a Wat held funds of nearly 1bn baht 9 years ago, I know Ubon pretty well and that seems astounding.. Maybe a massive wat in BKK or CM with celebrity benefactors... As previous posters state, poor people hand over money to these places beyond their means. Thankfully my Mrs sees them for what many of them are... Freeloading jailbirds lying low, trying scams on anyone they can. Not all of course, some genuine

Seems the treacherous military faction, pockets still filled from their turn at the trough, have paid off this treacherous old murderer to try and create an "event" to allow them to get back at the helm...

No fan of the woman-child PM, but these idiotic vexatious litigants should all be put on an island together to bore and annoy each other to death....

Sort of thing done on a daily basis by drunk/drugged/unstable locals all over the country, not to defend this idiots actions.. lock up and big fine

In defence of the OP it is very clear that many deaths of Frail/elderly/ underlying conditions people during the pandemic were attributed to covid, where in reality they simply died of old age, or they were already ill and covid just finished them off, just as the complications of getting the flu in those circumstances would have done. Its very clear in hindsight that media and governments used these statistics to whip up hysteria to scare people into doing the right thing...I speak mainly from my experience in Australia at the time, I'm sure most countries were the same... Thailand obviously was

Seems a little overzealous, but fleeing a checkpoint you are opening yourself up to whatever comes...I imagine the cops presume drugs etc and pursue

Pretty obvious looking at these numbers and then pie in the sky goals, that political instability is killing the country...

Staggering around Pattaya backstreets after midnight, looks like a QUALITY tourist 😉

That's pretty well a middle of the range blue, light either to keep clean but dark enough to give it that cool alluring look on a hot day ♥️ quite common colour in resort pools for a reason

"Despite a seemingly robust currency" god who writes this rubbish 🤔

Completely normal behaviour for kids this age in just about every country in the world...90% will turn out to be completely normal adults

Amen to that 🙏

Who knows the full story, maybe the kid is a shocking bully and his parents useless protective idiots... But there is absolutely no excuse for a sickening coward kick like that, could have very easily caused severe injury, hope it cost this nutter a packet

Another pile of garbage, the mention of water channels (and storage!!) for agriculture about the only valid point mentioned

Rotten to the core no doubt along with many unnamed others no doubt. Makes you wonder how many other buildings would fail the same checks...

Very happy to be about 7000kms away

If cans disposed of back in the boat, who gives a toss... Meanwhile a lot of Thais unfortunately just throw their rubbish in the street or better still pile it up and burn emitting stinking toxic smoke right in the middle of suburbia...

Understand the OP frustration of rule changes that are not "grandfathered"...but if roughly $100AUD a week (the difference between indexed and non indexed pension) is making or breaking his ability to live the lifestyle he desires... Then clearly he didn't plan too well for retirement 🤔

The number sounds a little far fetched to me, are we sure this isn't some sort of political stoush the minister has with the army ? Perhaps they were surveyed and 80% said they'd used drugs... Whoopy do they are young males... I play golf inside an army base and believe me most are hard fit and healthy looking to my eye

Another stupid leb

Chinese ? Nutter... Sooner some angry Thai BF beats <deleted> out of his fat arse the better

Excruciating slow turning wheel of justice in Australia but thankfully it looks like this bitch will spend most of her remaining life in jail

Was probably a trade off for the substandard reo bar in the concrete 🤔

Every time one of these stories come thru there's a constant tirade of criticism directed at the victim. While I'm not defending their actions (in most cases self inflicted damage), I have to wonder if any of these harsh critics were ever 20yo, did anything reckless or god forbid broke a law 🤔...I certainly did silly things home and abroad in my late teens and 20s, and only with a brush off good luck came thru unscathed.

Typical grubby media behaviour to be dredge all this up again now, achieves absolutely nothing
