Just block it. Don't even bother answering. It's probably some sort of scam. My messages are silent because I got so much spam form the provider. I've had WhatsApp messages claiming to be from a recruiter and asking to confirm interest. I just block them. There's no point in even humouring them.

If you're over 75, you're not going to be able to do much with that bed friend.

No idea. I was asking. I didn't say it was a requirement.

Really makes foreigners feel welcome. Especially when locals ignore the laws and rules on a daily basis.

Sounds like it's a community project, so presumably they'll house-to-house.

Or they're just super busy, crime-wise.

It's actually really nice to be able to zone out chatter and gossip on public transport or in a café.

You absolutely weren't. Read your post again. Lol. Imagine being completely wrong then noping out like you said something smart.🙄

And I think you are.

As I said, both in the wrong. Not sure what your point is.

Well, actually, I totally disagree with this statement also, since that wasn't what I actually said. 🙄

What the hell does this have to do with anything? You doing charitable things in Cambodia doesn't suddenly make you not wrong about what you said. 🙄

I think you're drastically underestimating how little Thai people think of foreingers.

Both those countries were free and had assistance from people acting in good faith and niether suffered as much as Cambodia. Cambodia is run by very bad people and most of the tourist money never goes to locals. They don't really compare at all. I'm surprised you don't know this if you've spent any time in Cambodia.

They probably do think of you as being the same as a tourist though. They know you're not in Thailand as a tourist, but they view you as being very similar. Kind of a long-term tourist who works in Thailand.

The article appears to deny rape also... 🤔

Not only attempting to jail their opponent, but actively stopping their choice for president from facing any legal consequences.

Don't most Johns get the girl to shower first?

Japanese people life a fairly emotionally restrictive lifestyle, always having to be polite and respecting those older or more senior to them. This leads to them going crazy and losing their sh*t every once in a while. Sounds kind of familiar... 🤔

Would that be the same left-wing that is only too happy to lie about Trump to put people off voting for him? Or the same left-wing that attempts to shame and stigmatise Trump supporters to put them off voting for him? What side of politics is currently making threats against democracy in the USA? It's absolutely the left-wing.

No. The driver may be guilty of an offense also. So, if the driver did come close to knocking this guy and his child off his bike, then both are guilty of an offense. There's no, "well he may have nearly killed someone, but he didn't mean to, so it's OK, but trying to punch someone is evil and deserves punishment" defense here. They are likely both in the wrong.

Sounds like an opinion rather than a fact. If the driver did come close to killing the rider's child, then both are at fault here. You can't pretend that dangerous driving is fine, but punching someone's car is not.

He denies it in the article, but he could obviously be lying. (Most drivers in Thailand appear to not actually consider pulling out in front of someone and forcing them to hit their breaks to actually be cutting them off.) Sadly, the press appear (predictably) to be biased in favour of the Laotian over the "foreigner". Even if the "local" did something that nearly killed the foreigner's child, they would probably still find the foreinger to be at fault.

Status symbols. Artefacts. Tools. Entertainment. Decoration. There's a reason for most things.

Is the junk bought for when people die?
