You have written a large amount of stupid "friend" of mine, I am willing to do it and I also tell everyone that I know, just for your information.
I have been here for 24 years, LEGALLY with visa and work permit and I do not like illegal!

What?

Mandatory GPS in/on vehicles.......hmmm. Seriously though.

Nonsense, that is not mandatory.   An investigation into whether it is feasible has been suggested, that's all.  Seriously.

Oups,...I was used to travel with a world radio receiver with multiple bands, to get the news from BBC World and Europe !!! Didn't know it was illegal....!? And I bought a couple of those red 2 way radio transmitter/receivers (12W-240/260 Mhz) to use on off road trips !!! 

"And I bought a couple of those red 2 way radio transmitter/receivers..."

As he said, the red ones are not illegal!

Sounds a lot like sophistry to me.

If that's referring to my comments, you need to check what "sophistry" means.

I prefer Thai as it's direct and their ground services are better even though Emirates on board services beats them hands down. Thai are generally £800-1000 more expensive than Emirates in F and on occasions I'm the only passenger in the cabin. No wonder!!

They need outside help. The Saudi's realised this and got Tim Clark to turn the airline around

"The Saudi's realised this and got Tim Clark to turn the airline around..."

What have "The Saudis" got to do with THAI, Emirates and Tim Clark?  Emirates is the UAE airline and Clark has no connection to Saudia.

This is quite debatable at least, but i find just weird that you are pushing this argument on this thread, which, i remind you, is about a foreigner being shot dead by a local criminal.

 

Now, you must live in a strange world if you think that not even murderers can be criticised.

I'm not "pushing" anything, I'm responding to the tedious, hackneyed old adage about "fragile Thai egos" that someone always throws in as though it's a new and groundbreaking comment, as opposed to nonsense.  

I commented and others responded to me, just as you did, so how is that construed as my pushing something, exactly? 

At no stage did I suggest that murders cannot be criticised, you must live in a strange world if you think that I did.

"...i remind you, is about a foreigner being shot dead by a local criminal".

Thanks, but I don't need you "to remind me" what the subject of the thread is but you do seem to need to be reminded that I was commenting on a members post, not the thread's subject.

You've nailed it JW, their state owned national airline is a prime example!

Well that comment sure hasn't helped, never mind nailed, the view that the government that isn't, clearly, successfully running the country!

Have you got something that confirms that "the Thai ego" is more fragile than any other?

Yep, and you read it here every day in this forum.  Other egos may well be fragile but not to the extent that is shown here constantly.

"Yep, and you read it here every day..."

Hahahahaa…!  Well, if it's posted here it must be true, eh?

No, I meant something solid, credible and specific!  

This forum is, in the main, a partisan, Thai-bashing forum so whatever generalisms are "read here every day" cannot be reasonable to quote as evidence to back up an argument that a forum member makes without specifics.

Because it simply is very fitting!

Based on what?

do you dispute that the Thai ego is fragile?

Yes, sure do, it's no less fragile than any other human ego!  Have you got something that confirms that "the Thai ego" is more fragile than any other?  As usual, Thaivisa posters' insistence that it is, based on nothing credible at all, doesn't count.

Seems you got that one wrong also.

I think that you are the one who is wrong.

No, not me, I know I'm not wrong but, if it makes you happy, you can think that.

Did it hurt your poor 'Thai' ego?

Not at all, but I think my comment may have bruised yours.

Today i walked in the macd and tried to order but cannot...have to go that computerpole to order...how can a blind person do that?

With the assistance of the staff, as very clearly shown in the photos, perhaps?  Geez...

what is the definition of "DISABLED" the person in photo not disabled in my eyes !!!!

You think blind people are able-bodied?  You deserve a remark that would get a ban for that crass post.

Yeh, into the ground

Seems you got that one wrong also.

Lets not forget that if you open a company in Thailand you can only obtain 1 work visa for an expat for every  4 thais. So you if your construction company employed 5 expats it would need to also employ 20 thais. 

He's not going to be employing any expats, he said he'd be employing "[a] few Thais"

Yesterday he had our sweetie at his mom’s place and for whatever reason decided to keep her another night. So what does he do? He drives right past 7, Tesco AND a baby supply place to arrive at my door demanding a new box of formula AND, get this, more diapers.

 

I told him no.

Really, you refused?  So much for your deep concern about your sweetie that you refused vital supplies for her.

Get this, how can you live with yourself?

However, all politicians, armed forces generals and above, and Police Officers will be exempt.............on the grounds of National Security.

Ironically enough, that would actually be the case if the proposal ever became law, just as happens here already with vehicle registrations of people holding those senior positions and it happens in the west also in most countries.
