  1. Quite amazing the $ these mid level public servants are able to rort. highlights the lack of scrutiny in their structures tho with waves of new software and cash society dwindling it’s going to get significantly harder in the near future to pull this stuff off
  2. Not normally one to lavish praises on RTP but in this case they appear to have done excellent work
  3. While I was caned in my youth at school and didn’t find it a major issue (it served it’s purpose- learn discipline) times have changed and need something more fitting. personally I would confiscate their phones for 1 day (1st offence) and so on but you can imagine the uproar of that in modern PC society….no easy solution
  4. As soon as I read “influencer” I got a very different view…fake news ?
  5. A small source which I imagine was from a level transmitter (common in older industrial plants, I have worked in plants with lots of these) is IMO no cause for panic even for people who had close up exposure unless it was for sustained periods of time which is probably unlikely. Imagine they were decommissioning some old plant and some one thought they’d just take some to the scrappers, how that happens is beyond me but lol TIT ????
  6. Agree with Steven100 above, very hard to know the particulars of this kid. what I will say tho, there are many indigenous youths around that age in the juvenile system in Australia that are completely OOC, extremely violent and very dangerous. Unfortunately they are just a product of abhorrent family environments riddled with substance abuse and violence. The billions of govt $ poured into welfare have achieved next to nothing in this area im afraid
  7. Young ladies wearing skimpy shorts in my observation has become a bit more commonplace but it’s def a late teen to 20s thing, can’t say I see many 30+ rocking these outfits Unlike what I see in Australia now with young and often very overweight girls wearing very tight and revealing gear such a turn off
  8. Other than the nasty hot weather, this is a good reason to give most parts of Thailand a wide berth from March until at least early June Thats my policy now while still working offshore and will definitely be when retired ????
  9. Newbies who hadn’t paid the BIB Irrespective 20% of patrons testing positive for some form of drugs is hardly a “drug party” - I’d say it’s statistically quite normal for a late night bar ????????????
  10. Not defending this kook, but I watched vid and I couldn’t see any zebra stripes plus the girl clearly couldn’t have looked that well to not see his lights approaching but clearly riding way too fast at night in built up and not stopping if spineless and indefensible ????
  11. Sure it will have a lot of issues initially, but once the top brass realise the sort of revenue these things can generate I guarantee they will be enforced and eventually accepted…have seen the full cycle already in Oz and while there are differences it will have much the same effect and in 20yrs expats here will be grumbling about the nanny state it’s become instead of whinging about the diabolical road standards here ????
  12. Ah the abject stupidity ???? it’s just a pity this won’t be run with hard enough by the media, highlighting how stupid this makes their country look
  13. Just a futile <deleted>-take to make it look like they’re not singling out their Chinese pals ????
  14. Financial fraud ???? he looks like one of those Nordic guys from worlds strongest man comp lifting cars etc
  15. I think it really comes down to her ability (grades etc) and ambition. Is she a uni grade student ? Not the end of world in Oz I didn’t go and I make more than most my mates, just the industry I lucked into. Jobs like aged care nurses are in huge demand in Oz, but for something like that prob easier and def cheaper to train in TH then move out when say 21yo, much more practical. Going at her age now would be difficult even with good English skills and def costly unless she has friend or relatives to stay with at least until she has a decent job. a lot of detail about cost of living can be found on AU university websites prob more reliable than asking on here ????
  16. I’m afraid the internet has created a whole new sub class of $&@wits and from the original posts comments about young tough looking tattooed guys I work with plenty of them and believe me most of them have probably never even had a proper fistfight
  17. God I wish these medical leeches would just go back to whatever they were doing before covid the country’s buckled economy is still recovering and I doubt many , if any, have an appetite to go back to the BS of 20-21
  18. Lip service only sadly as many have posted they’ve let the road carnage run unabated so why would this be any different
  19. Haha I’m sure the frog would have got a glowing reception there…not….????
  20. Preparing...just preying it comes earlier and lasts longer that usual. Cloudless skies with daily temp range of mid teens at night to high 20s maybe nudge 30 daytime is what i live for...house projects and garden, heaps of golf ????
  21. No suprises here, this section of Ubon floods nearly every year, in fact could have been worse as the mrs reports the rain from TS Noru was no more than numerous other periods this wet season. Certainly has been a long and plentiful rain season there.
  22. Nothing special, nearly a yearly occurance of flooding adjacent to Mun river on the Warin side of Ubon, its basically a natural wetland down there. Most just pack it up, collect cash and food handouts and live it temp shelters on the higher ground near the main road
  23. She’s a stunner ???? if Vietnam won’t help I’ll grant her a visa to our spare pool room immediately lol
  24. In suberban Ubon the local temple had a decent pack but during Covid numbers seem to have diminished noticeably…tough times and hungry mouths ? ???? anyway now as I walk my pack of 5 mongrels morning and arvo, they enjoy their little running battles with about 20 odd mutts spread across a few streets…but no street dogs all belong to a house even if most free range out on the street if they want
