  1. Can you share? I have no idea about any of this.
  2. Wouldn't knowing their income be a better measure? And who says paying a dowry guarantees an income in the future?
  3. Why would I need that? Did I specify child prostitution? Do you have something empirical to base that assumption on?
  4. You've got something empirical to base that suggestion on, presumably?
  5. It should be something like across province borders, sure. Not that this isn't despicable, but I'm one for labelling things accurately and avoiding sensationalism or manipulation.
  6. But possibly has a higher rate due to various cultural factors coming together.
  7. Or buy the latest iPhone. That's where Thai culture really comes into play.
  8. Are you? Or are you just trying to bully people who have done something that they felt they had no choice but to do, in the face of a global pandemic, with a member of immigration saying (incorrectly) that everyone would be kicked out of Thailand, with no victims and no one harmed by it, and are now facing possible consequences they had no idea would happen?
  9. Probably the guy was crazy and wanted to hurt someone, maybe a non-Thai. (Can Thais spot a Japanese person?) Or he asked for money and the guy refused, which then lit a fuse.
  10. Just a simple reduced premium based on power and number of amulets, surely?
  11. How could it be if they aren't letting people actually get high? What could they possibly see as the benefit or draw?
  12. Yeah, the whole travelling on their own passports, allowing themselves to be filmed on CCTV, etc., all seemed a bit amateurish.
  13. This may be true in some circles, but there is far more demonetisation of the native population (White people) politically in most Western countries. I don't think the same could be said for Thailand.
  14. And when the headline is "Foreign man does this and that"? I don't remember seeing you ever complain about that. Strange... ????
  15. It's called "I'm alright Jack, pull the ladder up". He was no doubt absolutely fine with getting back to back tourist visas for non-tourist purposes when he needed them, but, now he's on a more permanent visa, all this riffraff are abusing the system and shouldn't be allowed into the country.
  16. I think they're kind of indoctrinated from a young age to accept poor treatment. Do you remember the article about an ex-prostitute who regretted giving the money she earnt from foreign clients to Thai men, rather than settling down with a foreign guy? You can also see that girls are raised differently in terms of behaviour and young people even today have the attitude of "that's just what men are like".
  17. News is entertainment designed to make money. The moment Thai people become interested in road safety, you'll see it all over the news all day.
  18. Or just put the rice on so you can eat dinner together when your wife gets home from a hard day chopping sugar cane. I wonder if the guy even works...
