Even more troubling is when Thai people attack drunken tourists and leave them severely injured. That's even worse for the city's image.

Beneath this glittering façade, lies stuff that everyone sees and knows about... 🙄

What do they do to show you they care about you around Thai special holidays? That should be a fairly good guide. The more effort they make to make you feel included in their celebrations, the more effort you should go to to include them in yours.

No "stitch-up" pun in the headline?

Pollution must be a big factor. No one seems to care about it (they'd much rather worry about vaping) but it's enough to give you a cough, so it must be doing some serious damage.

Exactly. Aren't whales far more intelligent and aware than tuna? And don't they hunt them with harpoons with the whale suffering for some time before dying? It is nowhere near the same as fishing for tuna.

Tut, tut. Glass houses SparkTrader, I mean Big Knok, I mean Dolf... 🙄

Nice idea, but if someone is attacked for failing to show respect, yelling, getting angry, saying something mean, or calling someone stupid, then it is the person who is doing the attacking that is at fault. If you're argument is genuinely, "Don't do anything from this list of fairly normal reactions to a range of incidents, otherwise you might be met with violence from a Thai person", then you're probably kidding yourself as to how peaceful Thai people are.

Obviously not. He's trolling, just as he always does.

Or creating self-fulfilling prophesies...

I think it's just that road rules are such a non-thing in Thailand, Thai people have to be prevented by some sort of physical barrier, otherwise they just do whatever they want.

Possibly they think that Thais will just ignore the roundabout rules and just continue as is, albeit with a slight deviation to go around the island.

You only now understand the appeal of retiring to the warm Thai countryside in a large house with a pleasant and attractive woman?

You should be checking your mirrors for tailgaters and getting away from them. (And I said slow down, not stop.)

You should always slow down and check that the way is clear, even if you're on a green.

Nerves of steel on this guy.

Just sack the guy and ensure he faces some sort of legal penalty. Nothing else is needed.

Probably should have posted that also. 🙄

I don’t agree. I had an easy life which was happy. Enjoying school, friends, hobbies and sports. Yet you spend a large amount of your time logged into your troll account on ASEAN Now, writing unpleasant things to try to aggravate other people? 🤔 Something doesn't add up here at all, I'm afraid. Genuinely happy and fulfilled people don't waste large amounts of their time trying to make other people unhappy, as you very much do.

I thought it might contain some sort of reference to that, or perhaps someone having their arm in a sling. As it is, I can't see any reason to include it in the title. It doesn't work as a pun unless their is some sort of double meaning.

You don't feel you have knowledge or ways of doing things from back home that would benefit Thai people to learn?

How does "Singapore-sling" factor into this?

From the news story: the Buriram EOD team identified the object as a BDU-33 aerial bomb Indeed. It looks a lot more like what it is.

I guess not avoidable when travelling along windy country lanes at high speed.

Impressive.
