  1. Corruption 101 will be the 1st unit tought within the course.
  2. So several hundred people all leaving at 4:00am. Breatho is useless if alcohol still present in the mouth. You are meant to clean your mouth with water and not consume alcohol for 20 min. prior to blowing into the unit. More nonsence thought up by "the empty headed club of fools" that make policy on the run. It is completely unworkable but I bet someone's mate will make a fortune installing machines that will never see any real use. p.s. I remember in Aus when breatherlizers were put in pubs. Useless. Who could get the highest reading was always a bit of fun though.
  3. Yes there is a small Khlong that runs beside the rail line and a larger one across the rail line away from the airport but I think the khlong in the story is the big one north of the airport that seperates Don Mueang and Rangsit.
  4. All well and good but you seem to have missed the bit about types of alternative crops.
  5. I would not bank (no pun intended) on the TBT losing strength.
  6. Bt500,000,000,000 loan to hopefully create stimulus which will be over in a week or so once everybody spends the 10k and believe me the 10k won't last long. "Pie in the Sky" comes to mind.
  7. There's the wet season, the dry season and the cool season. Cool season temps can drop below 10C in Issan in the early morning. Tropics have 2 or 3 seasons depending on proxomity to the equator. The tropics DO NOT have winter. As for BKK it's very rare for temps to drop below 20C. Cooler temps maybe for a couple of wks and that's it.
  8. Yes you are right. Bulk packets of noodles are available at any market and per packet are cheaper than Mama packets as there are no flavouring saches or packaging. Having said this as with many things Thais use a brand name for a geniric noun i.e. mama is generally used for noodles no matter what brand.
  9. There is one thing that is definitely true. Thailand is the hub of using the word hub. Don't know why they just don't get rid of the peripherals and just say..."Thailand. The Hub of Hubs."
  10. LOL. US. China. Australia. Japan. Just to name 4 high tech military players in the region. Thailand aims to have technological superiority. You just can't make this stuff up.
  11. Don Mueang is an area. Why do you assume it's the airport? Why didn't you read the very short article? Typo (should be khlong) and I'm fairly sure there's no khlong in the airport. I've had a few beers there pre and post flights but not that many I've seen a khlong.
  12. This is a good thing and unlike recent history the vaccine has been fully tested.
  13. You can dress a turd in roses but it's stll going to smell like a turd.
  14. There appears to be a new definition of safe. Safe def : Being held hostage in tunnels under a war zone by Islamic Jihad terrorists.
  15. Paid monthy money gone in 4 days. Paid fornightly money gone in 2 days.
  16. Not news. Pitiful. This happens everyday in Thailand.
  17. Fairly sure my comment doesn't say seasonal change this weekend. As for accuweather I gave up on that years ago when it was telling me it was sunny and it had been pissing down all day. p.s. look up what defines a HEATWAVE.
  18. This morning I felt some wispers of breeze coming from the NE. Seasonal change is on its way.
  19. It will not boost tourism or the economy. This will cater to a small %.
  20. Not sure what it is but the less power the military has in internal affairs the better.
  21. Rediculous. Simply rediculous. Celebrating Halloween is in and of itself rediculous but this comment from the PM tops the pumpkin.
