If you think you can explain inflation by one factor alone, I suggest you go back to the drawing board. You might even question what it actually is and if it is always a bad thang

Climate deniers are people keen to look intellectually challenged in public.... but how would they know?? They use cliche'd excuses and conspiracy theories which just show they own inability to make sound judgements. THey love to blame the media ye fail to say where they get they "information" THey always refer to recurring ice ages - but fail to understand that these are studied as far back ad 800 million years and we know the causes of them - including the current causes of climate change Then the absolute clincher that they are unhinged is they say that money is behind it and scientists, by generating this theory, are making money out of the poor unsuspecting oil companies - they also ignore the fact that Exxon scientists accurately predicted MMCC in the 1970s. The final idiocy. is to suggest we can't afford it to combat it - when the truth is we can't afford not to

Ukraine is Putin's folly.

probably why he didn't give it a Russian name

you appear to be one of those people who think a joke is funny until you've explained it?

In cooler climes they are called "After Eights"

It's quite common to find people who think because they drive a car, they are experts on road safety, because they've been to hopital they are an expert on healthcare and because they work in dangerous occupations they re experts in health and safety - yet they demonstrate by their comments they just dont have a clue - they regard the health and safety officers as a nuisance and health and safety as a load of unnecessary regulations that stop them from doing their job - which of course they don't fully understand the dangers of.....

so you think only drunks fall from balconies - why would that be?

so was I...

You appear to have absolutely np knowledge of this topic and I was talking about safety measures for balconies - which you replied to with a nonsensical reply.

Too high for what? A profoundly illogical conclusion - which sums up a lot of posting on this thread. You don't even mention railing height.

So all the people who fall from balconies in Thailand are college students? If you could predict that then it would be simple to put in place measures to prevent it.

So what do you conclude from that?

like most of your posts - just rubbish - you have no idea of the basics of health and safety. So you are saying in countries where people don't fall off balconies so often there are less "drunken yobs"? In fact these "drunken yobs" come from other countries too. I'm sure the relatives of these people will be greatly relived to know that you classify them as "drunken yobs"

give examples. I can

Most of those who fall are older people. I think you are not up to speed on any aspect of this topic

Fact is the regs in Thailand specify 90 whereas in the West 1.1 to 1 5 what is your myth? Have you measured your Thai balcony?

so what's the process - is this on Samui? You go in after a year to exrtend your visa (O or B?) and then they say "OK give us 4000 baht"?

Interesting, so that is what you do? You report once a year and pay a fine? (2000/4000 baht) - how often have you done that?

You often find changes like this accompany a new manager of some sort, who has decided to show everybody how useful it is by changing things around......... of course in Thai office culture no one can tell him/her that it is a stupid mistake. It will have to run until he has "an even better idea!"

needs to be less than zero - full regrowth can take centuries.

how would you know?

It's pretty clear on this and other threads that many of the expats in Thailand have no idea what a democracy is or how it functions. Basically they resort to cliche and cynicism to hide their own ignorance.

Ignorant comments like that cloud the argumenty in hand - it shows that people really don't understand politics, let alone the politics of Thailand.

It is sad that people don't understand the word "communism" - and like woke, PC and other words it is used in a perverted form as a blanket "bete noire" by the uninformed.
