No way he stepped away. He was threatened with removal using the Twenty-fifth Amendment, Article II, Section 1, Clause 6. Inability to discharge the Powers and Duties of the Office of the President of The United States of America.

It's code for how much money they can hand over. If enough then no charges if not enough then gets charged. Am I being too cynical?

Worlds full of sheeple. As for media people need to look outside of the MSM.

Wow! I remember one year they said scientists had developed a spaghetti tree.

No surprise that Anutin's farce of a senate would critisise the PM.

The Chinese blokes were apprehended. I would imagine the documents are in Thai hands. Probably been or being scrutinised. What will be found and what will be released is another thing.

Not quite on topic but it's illegal not to wear underwear in public. An odd law but TIT. As for tits out that's illegal. What should also be illegal are blokes walking around with no tops on.

The CC will find no reason to impeach her. The status quo must be maintained and the CC and EC are there to make sure of this.

If you don't know what demonisation means that's on you.

An anti-vaxxer and an anti-mRNA vaxxer are not mutually inclusive. You simply sprout the demonisation line pushed by the the Democrats, the CDC and the MSM.

I think "normalcy" would've been pretty much maintained nation wide. Obviously not where the tofu build collapsed but in reality there has been very little damage and large areas of Thailand were not affected at all.

WTF.

Doesn't matter really. Obviously it can't come before the quake and coming after does it matter how ling it takes. Everyone affected knows there's and earthquake happening. Being told via sms after be it 2 minutes or 2 hours means zilch. As for aftershocks everyone should be well aware that these are likely to happen.

According to a report by the UK's Telegraph, the SAO building was a joint venture between Italian-Thai Development Plc (ITD) and China Railway Number 10 (Thailand) Ltd. The latter is a subsidiary of China Railway Number 10 Engineering Group Company, which holds a 49 per cent stake - the maximum foreign ownership allowed under Thai law. China Railway Number 10 Thailand, established in 2018, has operated as a contractor for large infrastructure projects, including office buildings, railways, and public roads, the report claimed. The company reported a net loss of 199.66 million baht in 2023, with revenue of 206.25 million baht and expenses of 354.95 million baht. Its Thai shareholders include: Sophon Meechai (40.80%), who also holds stakes in five other companies; Prachuab Sirikhet (10.20%), with investments in six companies; Manas Sri-anant (less than 1%), who holds shares in ten other firms. https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/myanmar-earthquake-thailand-earthquake-a-china-connection-in-bangkoks-33-storey-building-brought-down-by-quake-8045516 Does Thaksin have a finger or two in the pie? Who knows. A junta leader maybe? Possibly someone a a bit higher up. Who knows. The cover-up and BS that's going to come out of this will be something to behold. Using what you stated above only idiots will believe it.

I posted before but you might have missed it. China Railroad 10. They're the majority shareholder with 49%. CCP.

Don't forget the Thai's that got kickbacks from this. This goes up high IMO. Sadly I see a whitewash on the horizon.

Cheers. Dead right about idiots not seeing this for what it is. Heads must fall. Could this bring down the government? Just posing a question. I'm sure it's front and centre on their minds. Are people in the govt. connected to this company? Could this be a massive scandal? Interesting days lie ahead.

What are you saying? I would think corruption is front and centre on all Thai's minds. Already made my mind up? Yep. Same as the rest of Thailand. I've been talking to Thai friends and one and all say corruption.

Sorry to hear that. 7:30 in Pattaya. As for feeling cold I suggest raising the temp on the air-conditioner or venture out and get some company in to warm you up. Doing both would be optimal.

Use your brain. Nobody is to blame is the least probable cause. Do you live in Thailand? Do you know about corruption? As for the CCP the majority shareholder in the company is the CCP. It's a Belt and Road construction company.

Interesting. Why do you mention masturbating? Pre-occupied by any chance? All I said was: "Who cares? This is a bit of a sad expat thread. Most just get on with life. No need to chat about it. Certain poster on here I'm sure will tell us his free time is spent having sex." What's judgmental about this and where does masturbating cum come into it? As for the last bit about a certain poster everyone knows who I'm referring to. Haven't seen posts from him for a while. Hope he's ok.

This is absurd. People have died because of corruption and the best you can do is a childish meme like post. Hold your head in shame. Pitiful just absolutely pitiful.

Basically this building should have survived. Doesn't need to be built to earthquake specs. Bangkok isn't an earthquake prone zone. Shortcuts have been made and pockets have been filled and people have died. The blame for this surly is corruption. I would like anyone to challenge this.

Yep. These are CCP guys trying to clean up evidence. If it was above board as you correctly state they would ask gain permission.

So not earthquake prone then. Thanks fpr the info.
