Jeezus! He should run, not walk to the nearest airport and get out while he can.

Watching it, I had to turn on the subtitles to understand what he was saying. After viewing, I'd say he has a string of defamation suits coming his way. Best to get out of Dodge right now.

I do wonder if this video is going to help him, what with him walking around the entire time with a smirk on his face.

Wonder what type visa/extension he has. Clearly not eligible for a retirement extension, hope to God he's not a teacher, and I don't think there is a Youtuber visa.

What is going on with under 50s in the West coming to Thailand? They have hair trigger anger problems seems to me. They're even worse back in their home countries, where people explode into rage and murder over the slightest things. So glad I'm here, instead of there.

When did house arrest end?

Missing Prayuth.

King Slutzky apparently will not be getting the food catering service she demanded.

Faculty who interfered with police need to be arrested and lose tenure. All these people must go on the No Fly List. They have openly identified themselves with and supported Hamas, a terror organization. Letting them on commercial aircraft could bring about another 9/11.

Sorry. In the Thai universe, this is penny-ante stuff. I'm surprised anybody noticed.

My view right before the election was that PTP/Thaksin were the supreme campaigners and political maneuverers. And it's true. Nobody in Thailand can compare to them. They run circles around everyone else. I also feared, however, that PTP grabbing power would be bad for expatriates in particular. Prayuth basically left immigration alone--just the 400K year round maintenance, I think. He was a status quo politician. And for me, that's what I want. No changes. Now we're getting changes galore, and I can't see anywhere it's for the better, not only for expatriates but for average Thai people. And ultimately, it's their interests that count. And I think Prayuth was better. I now look at 2021 to 2022 as a sort of Golden Age in Thailand.

If you guys constantly fixate on the weather, you're going to feel miserable.

Just would like to see a few showers to cool off the roof tiles.

Prayuth was better.

Wait until Srettha taxes that charm school you operate.

Everything was better: immigration, no taxes on foreign income, no open door for Russians and Chinese, and now this new parcel tax. Hell, even Thai foreign policy was better balanced between China and the West.

Some even come with a punkha wallah.

What's a vegetarian shelter? Is this some sort of place for broken down Hare Krishnas?

Much fewer it seems than UK/European/Russian tourists.

Prayuth was better.

Or just buy a punkha and tie the cord around your big toe to operate it. Think of the savings!

Compared to the rest of the people running the government, he's a piker.

Forecast at my house:

Don't know how old the British scammer is, but if I was a young guy, this looks just fine to me, with the benefit of the pharmacy and access to imodium on the ground floor.
