    yeah i try to buy from tesco or the big internationals or lazada where possible as refunds are possible.  However I once bought a phone at tesco and had to fight for a long time to refund as they apparently had contracted the service out to some independent who kept lying that tesco does not refund lol.

    Lazada refunds ? Before but not now, now it has become Chinese property and their website miraculously no longer works for repayments

  3. Stopping with the red and starting with the green thing completely obscure for most of the conductors who prefer to cross with red in any case appears to be a collective suicide and perhaps it is a subconscious reaction to be reborn to better life. This is Thailand's biggest problem of which I see no solution for the future changed such a radically passive and fatalistic mentality will take decades .

    Well Thailand's experts didn't tell the whole story did they...naughty, naughty. Asteroid 2006 QQ23 (about 1,870 ft long) will be followed by

    45094 2013 BZ45 (a little over 800 ft diam.) and I think is due on Sunday. 45094 is expected to be a little closer (in round figures QQ23 @ 0.05 & 45094 @ 0.044 AU) 45094 is moving faster than QQ23.

    What numbers lottery I have to put ?

    Indeed. The immigrant route is a possibility, though not easy to get, not impossible either. High net worth individuals and those with connections who have exceeded the basic criteria needed to apply can apply for citizenship (a much better choice than permanent residency).

     

    However, most of the expats here I've spoken to have expressed reluctance to apply for citizenship, for some bizarre reason. I see no reason not to go for it, if you're eligible and choose to stay here long-term given Thailand allows (or at least tolerates) dual citizenship. For me it's a non-brainer.

    Why should I apply for citizenship in a country that I do not belong to both as a culture and as a religion and as a way of life, you believe that when you obtained citizenship they will no longer call you Farang?

    I love this rubbish. First Paragraph.....

     

    "Actor Tanapol “Tle” Nimthaisuk was sentenced to two years and six months in jail without suspension."

     

    Last paragraph....

     

    The court then released him on a bail of Bt135,000, pending his appeal to the upper court.

     

    .....so no, not in jail

    Six months in jail without suspension, the court then released him.

    Yes everything clear now or maybe not.

    Looks like they are having a good time there ... but their political decisions in real life make a lot of people unhappy ...

    But anyway , what they care about 'people ' , they care about themselves , that's all .

    I am dreaming about a world that is free of selfish and corrupt politicians .

    May be Artificial Intelligence , AI , could replace them one day ... I know , it is only a dream ....

    You only make bad dream with AI, theirs also go corrupt from oligarch

    Three things determine your ability to break.  Your breaks, your tires, and the road surface. Road traction is the biggest variable especially in moist tropical countries with lush vegetation, leaky trucks, and dirty sandy roads. Macho breaking can kill as easily as speeding.

     

    By the time his Honda stops, you could be 1/2 way through a concrete bridge piling.  (I know you know this, but it's good for everyone to hear.)

     

    Three things only, I remember you are Thailand with street dogs and madness goes in the opposite direction and more and more  Russian roulette only stay on the Thai road

    No way, what have you been riding?

     

    If I was on my bike and you were on a Honda Wave. doing 100kmh - and both did an emergency stop, I would have rolled a ciggy and smoked half of it before you stopped.

     

    My bike would also not skid all over the road under hard braking.

    No way, I go max speed 20 Kmh ????

    Big bikes are much better than riding a 110CC bike.. They can stop quicker and get out of trouble quicker..

     

    This is not true, the east braking system always proportionate to the weight of the bike plus passengers, the same est result. You seem to brake quickly if you travel alone on your bike.
