You do own a key or some type? Walk alongside the offender, and use it. Fastest way to solve the problem, doubt if they will do it again.

Bangkok Cabbie Returns Almost 100,000 Baht to Israeli Tourist
CanadaSam replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Don't believe this story for a second! Never met a Jew who lost even one satang anywhere, anytime! And some of my best friends are Jewish! -

How likely is another military coup in Thailand 2024 ?
CanadaSam replied to CLW's topic in Political Soapbox
Won't happen. The generals are not blind, and saw what happened only a few weeks ago in Bangladesh. The army/police refused to shoot at their own people, and the gov't had to run with tails between legs. I think the people are at a breaking point now, they will object en masse, and the authorities will refuse to kill their own people. -
From the pictures, it looks like your driveway is in much better shape than many of the roads in LOS! Dunno why you want to "fix" it, looks perfect for the job of driving up and down it!

Pattaya City Planning to Make Improvements to Iconic Pattaya Sign
CanadaSam replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Is that about 3 MILLION per letter? It's a bit of plastic in front of some tubelights!!!! I'd do the whole job for 300,000 not 22 Million, and still have money to spend a few weeks partying!!!! -
/TV & Film 29th August 24 - Sci-fi movie and TV spacecraft

Temu is not well run. If you click on the thousands of ads they show on my mobile phone, it takes you to a page to simply register and sign in, NOT the product page, infuriating! I tried a couple of weeks ago to actually register and searched for 55 inch TV. Got everything EXCEPT TV's! Weird!!! And NO C.O.D. that I could find! Gave up.

Too many tell-tale signs of extortion in this story: 8 to 9 months delay in reporting the crime, possibly money had dried up or not enough to stay quiet any longer? Mother when discussing with the alleged rapist "declined" an abortion? What possible reason could a mum have for forcing a raped 14 year old girl to give birth to the rapist's child? (Other than a source of life-long funds from the Indian to take care of the child). No report of any screams or scuffle at a party where presumably there were many within earshot. Anyway, very sad that a 14 year old got pregnant, perhaps through rape, and I hope the authorities find out the true story regarding this sordid affair.

What is the current cost of 1baht jewellery in Thailand?
CanadaSam replied to Issanraider's topic in General Topics
The first few replies are for pure gold, which is almost worthless in Thailand. ALL gold jewelry here, and even coins, bars, etc., are at 22 karat, which is around 96.5% gold. harryviking has the price correct, for the most useful caratage of gold here, as it is bought, sold, pawned, very easily everywhere, and the most appreciated by women here, who would not understand pure 24k and be frustrated by the lack of shops which would trade in it. -
Bicycle lights during daytime riding - Yes or No?
CanadaSam replied to Chomper Higgot's topic in Cycling in Thailand
This is Thailand! I keep my CAR parking lights on even during daytime! Find it stops a lot of the people that normally would signal and just turn into my lane without caring about me driving past in the fast lane! Anything to be safer on these wild west streets! -
Low blood pressure for just one day?
CanadaSam replied to still kicking's topic in Health and Medicine
I have low blood pressure (always) and cialis/viagra really used to drop my bp tremendously. -
You do not wish to mention this miracle worker by name, because you do not wish to help some of us readers who may need them, or because you do not wish to help the therapist by increasing their business? Just curious.

It seems to be a necessity these days, with people cutting people off, running red lights, etc. in Thailand. I tried 2 of them (cheapies) one for Lazada for about 400 baht and another one from a shop for about 800 baht. Neither of them are good quality clear video (especially at night), so I'm looking for recommendations from people who have a good dashcam system installed. Details on where to obtain them, and also have them fitted will also be appreciated! I'm in Pattaya, but can travel to Bangkok if necessary. Many thanks!

Ex-Official Arrested for Negligent Road Work, 38 Warrants
CanadaSam replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
It is my opinion that the mayor in Pattaya travels by hovercraft or helicopter, because if he traveled on a car in Pattaya, he would realize the urgent need to fix the weird holes spanning main roads, ups and downs similar to a roller coaster, and general lack of roads that offer a safe, relatively comfortable drive. -
Thailand’s Casino Complex: 90% of Patrons Expected to be Locals
CanadaSam replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
This is a situation where gambling is already taking place in Thailand on a large scale, but totally unregulated, making mafia type criminals rich. The gov't simply wants to regulate it, so they can add to their coffers, and perhaps add some semblance of law and order around an already established illegal industry. I say, go for it. -

So she was standing in the FRONT of the vehicle, but managed to get trapped in the BACK between the wall and near the exhaust? The mind boggles.... -
Biden's New Nuclear Strategy: A Shift Toward China
CanadaSam replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Having first hand seen and experienced Chinese road building, I would say they are far superior to many other countries efforts, including LOS, where highways are akin to roller coaster rides. -
Thaksin's Lese-Majeste Trial Set for July Next Year
CanadaSam replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Set for only a year from now? Why not 10 years from now?
