Drunk is drunk no matter where you are, but in Thailand it's especially dangerous with the holiday starting.

If the military dictators in Myanmar are finally kicked out and the democratic government restored, then bring in Myanmar as part of the Nato alliance, sitting on Thailand's doorstep.

Philippines are part of the frontline of defense already. Forget Thailand, because it is on the other side already.

Okay.

Good news at last.

The one guy who apparently is operating a junkyard in his front yard would likely be causing a higher chance of liability for neighbors or anyone unfortunate enough to live near him.

Turning a swimming pool into an open air concrete pit just might be enhancing the hazard, I'd think. Would much rather fall into water accidentally than hit solid concrete ten feet down.

Perfect example of why you need to be careful in Thailand. Watch where you walk, avoid loose dangling wires, keep an eye out for crumbling concrete, and never mind safety standards. These spiked fences would make their owner liable I'm guessing in a lot of countries. But here it's up to you to look out for yourself. Same thing with the 80cm rails on balconies.

I must admit after looking at the photographs in the article that those people pictured should have had their insurance cancelled. Would hate to live nearby their homes.

If you think Thailand has issues with environmental contamination, now, just wait until the Chinese infiltrate the country more thoroughly. They have utter disregard for the lives of people if it makes them even the tiniest of profit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_safety_incidents_in_China

What's the dog in the picture staring at?

Article closes by noting that property could be under daily surveillance.

Yep, gambling, the thing that has made Sihanoukville the sewer it is today.

Have you seen what they do on the floor of the US Congress (oops US Senate hearing room)? But, yeah, those Thais angry have a right to be. Seems like every degenerate POS from the West thinks they have a license to misbehave and go criminal or semi-criminal just because they paid for a plane ticket to Thailand. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/capitol-police-close-probe-senate-sex-tape-finding-no-evidence-crime-rcna136742

Like owner, like dog. Put down the dog, and lock up the owner.

I love these. Haven't had any in a long time. Now, I've got to find some.

These topics always bring out the cranks.

Narcissist Trump and Brain-impaired Biden are not my problem. I'm voting for RFKjr.

Didn't China just start filling a new dam on the Lancang, further reducing water going downstream? Is this a payoff to stop "authorities" from complaining?

Don't give a flip about the UK. This topic isn't about the UK. This is Thailand and I can get treatments as soon as needed. BTW, you can't get immediate care in the US either. It takes weeks to get an appointment with a primary, unless you want to go into the emergency room and pay through the nose. Anything that works to import US standards and costs into Thailand is a disaster and should be resisted. Nice to see the worthless ambassador stop posting pictures of his jogging trips long enough to raid the Thai health care system.

You're optimistic. May ten fold ten fold.

Except when it comes to demonstrating in China.

Won't help if you're also behind someone who has a wad of coupons and is scanning them while the cashier double checks for the items before they go in the cart.

Khaosod reports that it is a Chinese owned warehouse. Chinese owner bought the cadmium from another Chinese man. Thailand going to be the same as China, an environmental catastrophe.
