  1. geeezuz... if they are as bad as some say no one will be able to send them back for inspection... theyll be dead.
  2. i think you are unaware of the prices of second hand cars in thailand. around 2-3 years ago my wife and i were shopping for a suzuki swift... not even an ice car. prices were 285k to 400k for 6-8 year old vehicles. i doubt an ice car would go for as low as 100k to 180k as you point out. if so, tell me where. just take a look on taladrod.com maybe a reality check for you
  3. quality tourists welcomed with open arms. the two top visitors are from countries who have dreams of conquering other nations. sounds like ww2 alliances and the thais in the middle. when a pediatric hospital was recently bombed in kiyv all the thai gvt expressed was shock while welcoming tourists from this country with a grandiose smile. i wonder what the thai gvt will express when xi invades taiwan 🤡
  4. i am surprised. the car in the op looks pretty good... then again one has to be careful of appearances. uncle xi is not going to be happy about this. as many countries in the west are starting to make it more difficult for china to export its products by imposing certain tariffs and taxes thailand was seen as a way out with its friendly openness towards china
  5. what is even more sad is the <deleted> compensation paid in such circumstances. families like the shi_awats, the tawisins, the red bulls and so on spend more money in a day than is compensated to innocents in traffic accidents. these <deleted> dynasties should organise a welfare for the old and victims of road accidents rather than enriching themselves. back home is FAR from perfect, but we do have a welfare net. the more i live here the more i learn to hate the institutions. the myanmar victims of their dictatorship being returned to their country to face possible torture comes to mind. RIP little girl
  6. heinz relish has disappeared around here a few years ago. they have this local slop that tastes nothing... what a few guys commenting here tried to sell is some other tomato soup, which i have bought out of desperation. these guys think it is great... but it only makes one serving. these guys are ignorant cos they prolly dont know how to cook campbells. the secret is to mix it with milk, one can, and you almost get 3 servings that taste better than the 'baxter's'.
  7. it is the people's choice. i have COPD from years of smoking 4 packs a day. i dont think i have very long to live. if i could go back knowing what would happen to me i might have never smoked. BUT IT WAS MY CHOICE to do it. i am paying the cost now but i believe people have the right to choose
  8. WOW!!!! if ya dont like something list it as a drug. when will taxshi_ be listed as a drug? seriously, i am dumbfounded at how the thai heads of state and ministries tackle problems. they treat everything as a nail cos the only tool they have in their toolboxes are hammers
  9. and what would the thai migrants be doing... really? sex trade?
  10. fyi... just as in most places in the west... like uk, sweden, france... migrant culture is slowly taking over native culture, it is what all the great heads of state want, a melting pot and so far it seems muslim culture is in the lead.
  11. makro pattaya, makro rayong, tops-foodland-friendship pattaya nothing. it seems that there is only cream of corn/mushroom available
  12. i feel like throwing up. isnt he a billionaire? nice to see polls can be bought i hope he is shown the door on the 24th of july at his hearing... the timing is awfully strange
  13. dont you know that your stupid idiotic comment is out of order? @Tubulat comment actually rings true. your comments , newbie, are no more educated than those of a kindergartener. i wish you would do like the wind... and blow away🙏🤣
  14. april 1st, right?
  15. what do you care? you are rich? you dont need to exchange money? and no, i dont live comfortably with the exchange rate. are you posh?
  16. anyway i can get a better interest rate on my 800k for retirement/marriage?
  17. i usually read almost all the articles on AN. couple days they said there were 2 groups not eligible for the money... but in the article nothing about money in the bank or salary. i must have missed what you were referring to. i hope i can corroborate what you are saying but thanks for clarifying
  18. thailand the hub of no evidence He reiterated Thailand’s consistent adherence to international human rights and humanitarian principles. i wonder how the illegal, undocumented and unprotected people in the canneries and fishing vessels feel about that
  19. i am trying to understand your second point but i dont get it. how will giving k free money once in their lives going to tell clown face's team who needs to pay taxes?
  20. right now thai bht starting to do better... i hope clown face puts the final nail in the casket for the bht with his hair brain scheme. if a country lets a guy like this run things they get what they deserve... forgot the shi_awat dynasty rules the roost
  21. i have read and re-read this over and over and i still dont understand it... why does some members who voted to declassifying it still being on the board make it so he cant vote? HE being sreta, i guess... not clear reporting at all
  22. 555 are they? i thought it was because they knew who to pay off... good one gottfrid
  23. i thought all was well in the coalition 2 days ago... thank you anutin... no one should be jailed for weed. i dont like anutin, but he is doing the right thing.
  24. Soft power... new pu_e thai buzz word. Do they even know what it is? Popular culture and mass media are regularly identified as a source of soft power, as is the spread of a national language or a particular set of normative structures. Soft power has been criticized as being ineffective by authors such as Niall Ferguson in the preface to Colossus. Neorealist and other rationalist and neorationalist authors (with the exception of Stephen Walt) dismiss soft power out of hand as they assert that actors in international relations respond to only two types of incentives: economic incentives and force. As a concept, it can be difficult to distinguish soft power from hard power. For example, Janice Bially Mattern argues that George W. Bush's use of the phrase "you are either with us or with the terrorists" was in fact an exercise of hard power. Though military and economic force was not used to pressure other states to join its coalition, a kind of force – representational force – was used. This kind of force threatens the identity of its partners, forcing them to comply or risk being labeled as evil. This being the case, soft power is therefore not so soft.[15] They just want to look like they are doing something. Flapping their arms around like birds would work just as well. I despise anything pu_e thai or shi_awat
  25. Even the big and tall can fall off their perch. A gun will make even the biggest of us fall, and thais have many of those. Truth is, you should be careful of the wife more than the drunk. A judge will likely believe a thai woman over a big falang... and they are very good at looking poor and sheepish... This is their country and if you get deported no matter how much muscle or brawn you have... you will be in a holding cell before you end up home. That said, i support calling out stupidity... just that us big guys usually arent favored in the eyes of the law... exactly because we are big...
