I believe that for police to set up a barricade to stop vehicles they require a signed letter from whoever is in charge of the station. Otherwise it is illegal. No mention of it being a legal stop and search.

I doubt if foreigners who free climb need information about the dangers. I guess that's why they do it. Officials are probably more concerned about him killing himself and a load of foreigners on some forum blaming them for not putting up "no climbing" signs. Whatever they did they would be wrong. ????

Is there a difference between this and murder?

I misunderstood. Thought the article was about Enigma, the chanting monk pop group.

Some former prime ministers were up against charges for transferring government officers.

Good compromise.

Betting that his return would create a movement to reverse the case against him (after all it was pushed through by the military coup leaders) and start jockeying again for a partnership. The courts would be in a tough position. He is the nation's most popular (former) politician and trying to arrest him could lead to riots. He could get the same treatment as Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr. and be shot on arrival.

Have had a long-standing bet with Thai friends. Take me to a house with ghosts and i will pay 500 baht for every ghost i see. They are still poor.

Kluaynamthai Hospital in Klong Toei has a floor for diabetes patients. Used it when I first was diagnosed with diabetes type 2. Now i just use a local hospital for follow up visits.

I remember there was a policeman who announced that videoing an encounter with police is legal. Difficult to do with armed robbers though.

Obviously she wasn't able to take advice from the Red Bull kid.

If it is legal then do it. Even the government helped in Thailand with RMF and LTF tax saving investments, though they are cutting back these days. But insurance, give money to mum and dad as dependents and save tax legally.

Never found long hair stopped me passing exams. Got my O Level in woodwork with ease.

It's all down to a lack of driver education. When I cycle at one of the parks here you see kids of high school age cycling all over the place. Stop abruptly in the middle of the cycling lane? Check. U-turn without looking behind? Check. Drive on the right? Check. Swerve across to chat with a friend? Check. Cycling in a park should be where future motorcyclists gain at least some road skills but nope. You can spot the future doomed kids with ease. Why don't schools try to promote safe cycling before anyone gets a motorbike? Because it isn't in the curriculum I guess.

I understand this amounts to good behavior and should help when risk pardons are given. Good luck to them.

Seems very reasonable to me.

Don't think you'd get that many votes. We're talking absolute majority. Never been done in history. A relative told me she accepted the politicians' cash then voted for the one she likes. I agree that is the best tactic.

Aside from the cheap jibes by neanderthals it is a great love story. Seemed his family tried to fit a square peg into a round hole (no jokes please) and he finally escaped their expectations. However, as some pointed out, he will need to renew his visa and immigration will be waiting. Same sex marriage is not legal yet. He shouldn't have talked to the journalist I guess. I wish him all the best, having found happiness in the simple life.

Certainly is strange that the Shinawatras kept winning overwhelmingly each election. It was as if he was very popular or at least more popular than his competitors.

Smile and stop showing people you are wealthier than them.

Quite honestly fit people do die suddenly. Jim Foxx, the originator of jogging, who died of a heart attack while jogging is the most famous example. Personally, as i burn easily I shall not be visiting the island, but i will also inform friends who visit not to bother with it as there are other places without the death island reputation. The police have brought this negative feeling on themselves with their very lackadaisical attitude toward deaths.

While everyone is blaming teachers i have to wonder why the parents never saw something was wrong and ask questions. While it is hard to confide in some parents, parents do love their kids. I assume the parents are asking themselves what they did wrong.

But he said the explosions happened after he got out. So no attempt to help at all? Oh well.

Have to start thinking of alternative expressions. Not as good as some but not the worst. Our products are worth buying. So buy now! Let us give you the spa of a lifetime. It won't kill you. We don't guarantee a happy ending. But money helps. Out airport van service won't roll over and explode.

As ice is used in beer here then I guess anything goes.
