Yes , not a nice character , apparently .

But there was not much of a kicking ( bodily harm ) . Can be seen in the video .

He seems to be  a big spender ( 1 mio monthly rent !!! ) . His elephant sanctuary has all the papers needed .

He employs thai people . Kicking him out by revoking his visa is not the best decision . There should be a better solution ( like him being forced to do social work etc . )

I wonder why ' his ' land has no clear demarcation or fence . Was there a sign that indicated that members of the public have no right to access ?

Anyway , the thai " doctor " was no doctor yet , just a student .

That shows clearly that , in this country , aggression against natives is a no go .

Being tolerated as guests ( even if living here for many years ) , is all a farang can expect .

A foreigner in thailand is not without legal rights , but these have to be enforced by a tribunal , a judge . Costly process . but worth doing in some cases .

But not this one .

I would not be surprised by the appearance of a new pandemic , this time with a genetically modified viral  strain that becomes absolutely lethal .

An antidote will become available only for the selected few ...?

May be it is time for this ...?

If AI ever reaches a level to find and imply logical solutions to the world's problems , it would eliminate the worst : overpopulation .

A general reboot is urgently needed  .

I hope they find the mother and provide the help that she obviously needs.

Why are there no " baby traps " in hospitals as in fartang countries ...?

That would enable the mothers to dispose of their unwanted babys anonymously ...

Thailand , the world's hub for the mentally ill .

Poachers are scum .

Killing and selling of protected species is a crime .

Perhaps he will repeat the family tradition of escaping the country and going into exile!

Better confiscate his private jet .

A pity they cannot do this with his villa in Dubai .

Pita is a charismatic leader .

Many people who voted for MFP voted for him .

MFP will probably be dissolved , but could reappear under a new name ...

But Pita will probably be banned from politics for 10 years or more ... he is too well-liked and poses a threat by that .

What the people want does not matter here ...

His greed to get more led to a loss .

China has agreed to lend a new panda to Thailand

Pandas becoming kind of a currency by now ?

These are living beings with feelings , they should be kept at least species appropriate if their natural habitat is destroyed already .

Don't forget how the chinese treat their other bears ...

Special needs means these kids should get special care .

Well , there was this thai youngster trying to provoke me doing something bad .

He went to stand right in front of me filming me with his phone ... may be just 1 meter away ... I found this to be annoying nad would have liked to give him a good punch in his face ... but that was what he apparently wanted ...

Instead , I took out my phone and started to video him from very close as well and I showed him my middle finger while he was filming me .

He stopped immediately and went away .

It all depends if you are in a public place or in your privacy at home .

If invasive videos or photos are taken from you at your private place , there are laws against this .

Ask a Paparazzi , they know .

Why take it away on a pickup ?

The mother was looking for it .

Some animals are not ' pets ' .

Even lions can develop a close relationship to their owners , they still can act following their instincts ... when they feel provoked  for example ...

They should be kept ' species appropriate ' at least in a reserve where they have enough space to live .

I hope that no animal torture ( taking out the claws or teeth ) was involved .

Dogs are domesticated , an entirely different story .

Sure , of course .

NO nobody can, one could say aware of being aware makes one conscious but nobody knows what consciousness actually is. Neuro scientists think consciousness is caused by the brain but they don't know where or how. How can something non material be made by something material, where is the taste of chocolate in the brain? There are correlations but the experience of taste isn't there. Conscious awareness is experienced by everyone but we don't know what it is. 

I have a lot to say about this ... but I cannot do it now , because my left hand is swollen and painful after a mouse !! bite .

Can only use one hand for typing ...

My philosophy is a little different as it is based on clues Astronomy provides .

What you call consciousness , I call " Spirit " ... but more about this later , may be ...

have a nice day .
