Expect Thaksin comparisons.

Someone I know wanted to fly there in the evening and was told the airport was closed at 6pm. 😁 What I expect to happen is that they will spend millions on the new name made of stainless steel letter and then someone will tell them it should be taken down and renamed in honor of you know who.

The Thai government may be gambling on casinos, but with whose money? BOI privileges for real estate politicians to build them? Invite the Las Vegas mafia to come? As a taxpayer, I would rather see money spent on better education and modern manufacturing.

Maybe someone could separate the religion of Judaism from the acts of the Israeli government?

No sure how this increases efficiency. Catching criminals who left a bad hotel review maybe?

On the other hand, many "soft power" icons abroad toked and yet still remained more creative than most Thais. Maybe Thailand should look at creating rather than destroying. Man.

While the Bank of Thailand appears conservative, unfortunately the government is running hell-for-leather to add more debt via their THB10,000 free money giveaway.

Why do people want to vote for him? He looks like he would be a vicious leader.

Forgive me if I misunderstood, but I thought the charges were not about paying women to keep quiet but from where the money was illegally diverted.

Unfortunately, the LibDems offer nothing as an alternative, though picking up local seats wont mean they will ever be the government.

Thai masseurs to help them get it up. Saudi masseurs to chop it off?

I am sure Thais will be happy to get 10,000 baht each. But realizing that's the only free handout they will get, they will not vote for PT again.

This is about Thai domestic migration. I know they have to give a registered address for electoral purposes but commuting to work isn't about migration.

I blame the migration of westerners who told Africans how great they were.

He could have turned up at the Congress hearing and just pleaded the 5th for every question.

With no journalist or business background, I look forward to his role in self censoring the independence of the Post.

This could be worrying for evangelicals. "Do these aliens believe in God?" "No." " So they are heathens that we should conquer?" " No. They laugh at us as we would monkeys." " So why don't we go out there and convert them?" " We don't know how to go faster than light."

I am sure he just needed some exercise so a walk into Burma would help his sore neck.

Good luck to them. When they meet a problem they can claim their Constitutional rights.

I have been informed that, while the major cities have waste collection agencies, the rural areas often do not have anyone collecting waste so farmers collect it and bury it or burn it. My organization once offered to donate waste bins to Watthana district so that Sukhumvit would have one every 50 meters within their district. They politely declined, explaining that it would create a worse problem as Thais would throw waste in the general direction of the bins, not in them, thus exacerbating the problem. I was also informed that they could not collect waste several times a day as it would cause traffic jams.

Can anyone remember how many things he has promised to do "on day one"?

Western rice buyers should be aware that Thailand thinks 10 year old stock is safe. Sooner out later it will be mixed into what they sell to foreigners.

I often wonder the reason why people get addicted to drugs (sorry, no personal experience), and how they can afford drugs. A former heroin addict told me the feeling was very blissful and better than Hollywood movies made out, but yaba is hard to understand.

Funnily enough, the idea of creating Israel was only tentatively agreed by the UK. The USA was the first to recognize the new country. The Jewish terrorists (yes they were wanted terrorists) at that time included a future prime minister, Menachem Begin. You may remember the King David's hotel bombing. UK foreign minister Balfour stated they were in favor of an Israel state as long as other occupants of the area were treated well. "Nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine". Oh well.

The perfect U.S. presidential candidate.
