I believe this vehicle was built by Thairung, the Thai car manufacturer. It was based on the old Frontera Navara D22 model. So depending on which parts you are after you could chase up Thairung or Nissan. At the end of the Chonburi bypass there are several vehicle dismantlers who might help you with this too. There are also several body shops dotted along Sukhumvit ...you can see the panels and trays stacked up in rows outside Production of the model I'm thinking of ceased around 2006??

...and what sort of car do you think it was....the only Izusus you see are pickups. So your using a pick up truck as a comparison?

I don't think so.....what cars do Izusu make that can be used as a taxi?

Who all have factories in China. Isuzu make very high quality cars. Japanese brand.

I can't even imagine what it's like to have such a simplistic and shallow perspective of the world as that. Theý say ignorance is bliss, you must be one of the happiest people in the world.

Why do you keep quoting me? You haven't got anything to say.....

Now who needs a history lesson!!!

Your grasp of sources available is so limited, it's no wonder that you resort to false dichotomies.

It would seem that ASEAN NOW don't recognise topics as eco related.

Of all the sources you could have chosen!!!

I see viewing figures were much lower than expected. Lower than Lady Di's funeral and lower than Boris's speech on Covid.

Seems strange that there is no forum to discuss ecological, conservation and wildlife/ nature issues. Thailand has some pristine forests, some of the best natural resources in SE.Asia. Tourism which relies on this, forms 20% of Thai GDP. Yet much of the countries natural resources are under threat. There are severe wilife issues affecting both flora and fauna. Thailand is regarded as a major hub of the illegal wildlife trade. There are serious pollution issues. (v. The EEC corridor) Sea, rivers, soil and air are under threat...property prices are suppressed in some areas. There is a section on cannabis, on cars, on bit coin....surley some are concerned about the future of the Kingdom?

Interesting cortege in Scotland. I like the democratic response of the people...clapping and the "royal salute" - phone in hand lifted for photos Surprised by the vehicles. No Rolls-Royce. First car a Merc Followed by a Bentley (VW) Then a rather dark flock of Range Rovers (Tata). I found them rather sinister like the Chervy Suburbans used by FBI or Men in Black

That'll be those who support the current military based regime?

Just 2? That is your view of the situation? Are you sure it's not a false dichotomy?

Make no mistake whether visa, residency retiree, work permit....whatever, expats are immigrants

Anyone living and working here is to some extent deporting this militaristic regime.... they are ci doing all its actions .... unless there something about it.

So if I see an old lady being attacked in the street, I gnome it on the basis it is Thailand and I'm not Thai. or how about these people formulate foreign policy and that includes my home country. So I'm not allowed to object to thus unless I'm in my home country. What about Thailand's attitude to political prisoners....just turn a blind eye and pull up my speedos shuffle my things and sip my Chang....I'm alright Jack.... or too timid to act?

Pedro you are so silly....dogs breed rapidly and if the food available is good they breed even more rapidly. This is not debatable...it is proven. Once a dog population is small then it can be managed....there is no culling in the UK, several dogs a few hundred are put down because of age or health....this is not culling. The numbers of dogs in Thailand cannot be controlled with "regular patrols" How do you propose to cull them?

Let's be clear scout 2 things... 1 - Culling dogs doesn't work. 2 - SDF reduced the stray dog population in Phuket from 80,000 to 6000.

Itsquite clear you haven't got the faintess grasp of the issues. You don't even know of the Bangkok cull.

Where will you burn 780,000 dog carcasses over 10 years. How will you manage the army in the streets of BKK firing live ammo and howe do you deal with the dogs that escape. Then how will you prevent other dogs from taking the place of the ones you've shot?

You don't seem to be able to read mark, lean and inwardly digest. The last cull in BK ended in failure for precisely the reasons you have mooted. I know it's difficult to come to terms with the evidence when it makes you look foolish - it's called cognitive dissonance, but your replies are just making it look as if you are incapable of understanding anything.

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” — Mahatma Gandhi Some facts and figures about roaming dogs in Thailand CNVR - Capture, Neuter, Vaccinate, Release Places where Soi Dog is working – Phuket, Phang Nga, Samui and Bangkok – owners can have their pets vaccinated and sterilized. Free. The schedules for Soi Dog mobile clinics are constantly updated on their Facebook Page (https://www.facebook.com/SoiDogInThai/) SDF is currently running (Covid permitting) a campaign to do this is BKK SDF have been quite successful in Phuket already - In Phuket over 15 years the population has dropped from 80,000 to about 6000. The problem is that many people are not aware of this either due to the gradual change or the fact they weren’t there 15 years ago. Phuket is the only province in Thailand that is, according to the government, rabies-free. But there is no guarantee it will stay that way. A very important factor in SDF’s success is that Phuket is an island and it should relatively easy to control animals coming onto the island. The main threat is “pats” brought from the mainland for sale in the markets Just pre-Covid, SDF CNVR’d 4000 dogs on Samui, KPG and Kog Tao In BKK they have a 7 to 10 year, Bt550-million project to control the ENTIRE dog population. It will see an increasing number of mobile surgical teams recruited to target the estimated 640,000 stray dogs that roam the streets in Bangkok. Dogs are not wild animals they are bred by humans and our ecology is linked together, in order to deal with them, we not only have to deal with the dogs but also our own behavoiur. Sterilized and spayed dogs also tend to be less aggressive. …and they don’t come into season. If about 80% are sterilized and 70% are vaccinated that is usually sufficient to do the job. It took the USA nearly a century and a half to get it’s dog population under control – it is only in the past 10 years that demand has outstripped supply. The last cull in BKK killed 200 dogs per day - at that rate it would take nearly 10 years to kill the current population - but as bitches can have up to 3 litters per year - you can see that the rate of replacement would just about nullify any extermination. Replacing the population – Dogs can breed after 6 months – one single bitch can produce 6 to 12 pups in a litter 3 times a year. After six months those pups will be producing litters of their own. A bitch will live from 3 to 5 years. After 5 years at a rate of 7 bitches per annum it could have up to 17,000 descendants all happily reproducing on top of that I don’t think people consider the logistics of a cull either – what do you do with ¾ of a million carcasses, what to do with the ones that escape. How do you kill them – you can’t use poison because of the danger to other species, the environment and humans – so you have to shoot them. How do you deal with teams of armed hunters running around BKK. How do you dispose of the bodies? In themselves a massive health hazard. Your house pet is no different from the stray dogs it still needs vaccinations and jabs against rabies and doggies’ diseases and should be neutered - no matter how hard you try over the period of its life it will interact with both stray and “owned” dogs on the island and precautions need to be taken.
