And if people in those countries are caught conspiring with USA attempts to undermine their government, then they will be liable to suffer whatever consequences their system provides for. And the same should apply to US citizens should they be caught committing illegal acts.

That's no excuse and a terrible way to look at it. Dems lost election and can't stop crying and any 'Russia' interference would be minimal. If you think Dem supporters will rush back because of paranoia about 'reds under the bed' you are mistaken. Attack trump on the big issues not this garbage.

Like you know me.  I guess you haven’t figured out how the world operates.  Maybe you will get it next lifetime 

i understand that's the problem

I believe that old guys who wear leathers and ride BIG bikes have no 'issues' about age at all   

Oh that Dan... yes he was last seen doing his completely unbiased poll in 'Boyz Town' in Pattaya.

Suck it up authoritarian fan ?

No you misunderstand I hate hypocrisy but I guess you liberals love it. Of course we all know USA  never interferes with elections in other countries     

This is all deflection away from the Trumps obvious megalomania yet you continue to focus on the absurd. Trump must be loving it.

"other related crimes"   maybe the US interfering in other countries?  or is it just Big Bad Russia?  lol

Meghan is Harry's 15th Cousin, she is not exactly a commoner, she is descended from British royalty.

 

Among her father's ancestors are Captain Christopher Hussey, King Robert I of Scotland, Sir Philip Wentworth and his wife, Mary Clifford, a descendant of King Edward III of England.

who cares?  just another tool of the very rich elite to subjugate the masses (and it works)

Nope, not Myanmar, but rather we were planning to retire to Sabah state, Malaysia.  Even had applied for the Malaysia My Second Home 10 Year Retirement Visa, but at the last minute discovered the Thai-U.S. Tax Treaty and learned how it handles the taxation of U.S.-sourced private pension income.  A U.S.-licensed accountant in Bangkok specializes in helping Americans in Thailand and saved us a pile of money that we wouldn't have if we moved to Malaysia were there isn't a similar tax treaty.  We can be bought.

Ah yes apologies I could not recall. Good choice  :)

You are aware that Hamas is not quite supportive of the two-state solution thing, right? This isn't something one side is all for and the other side opposes.

My post in no way supports Hamas and I can't see any other solution.

Take a look at our website www.lannacarenet.org   No one pays for our services.  There is no organization to "join".  The "members" are people who have gone through some training and assist other expats because they want to give back to the community.

A good fall back service. BTW weren't you going to leave Thailand?  (Myanmar or something?). Anyway can't be denied you have helped many people and thanks for that.

I`m going to admit I used to enjoy the girly scene when it was at it`s heyday in Chiang Mai. It was rough, but it was cheap and it was fun.

 

Not much fun hiking or cycling between February and the end of April, breathing in all the choking fumes from the acrid air. Same if going out on long motorbike trips. A lot of my friends are leaving Chiang Mai during those months.

 

What has become most irritating for me in Chiang Mai, is the immigration procedures. What used to be a simple process has now become a chore. Either having to take a chance and maybe wait hours in a queue or paying an agent to ensure a slot. Worse in the whole country.

 

 

Stay away we won't miss you promise!

Come, grab yourself a wife/gf 30 years younger like most do and live the life!  just do it in a smart way and remember it's an exchange - your money/security and their comparable youth. Good luck.

Are you suggesting that before the 15th century there was a country called Palestine in which a people called Palestinians lived and were ruled by fellow Palestinians? And that this country and it's people were a distinct country apart from other Arab nations and tribes?

This is not smart Bearboxer and not like you. Anyone can go back 100s of years but it's a very weak, weak argument. Discuss 1900 forwards please?  Modern wars hand back territory ( a la WW2 etc) after winning. Stealing house and land in the modern era is disgraceful and if any OTHER nation did it there would be outcries of 'ethnic cleansing' and the like.

I have seen som thai ladies taking care of old broken farangs, so not always true, but if they are honey, I do not know. 

It's a good thing that Thais will look after many of us once our better days have gone but the ones I've seen are an 'exchange'. Not many honey's looking after poor farangs I'd wager.

The interesting question is, who do thai girls like most? 

 

Western from Northe Europe 

Western from South Europe

Western from USA

Russia and former USSR

 

The countries that is likely to grow in volume is

India

Pakistan

China

 

I know for sure, thai really disslike India, Pakistanis and Chineese, and do not want to have anything with them to do. Or is my information wrong? 

no money no honey

Cry for help. Hope she gets it and forgets whoever the guy (or girl) is. No one's worth dying for.

Money is an aphrodisiac for anybody, just look at the cuties rich old men marry the world over, gays wouldn't be any different, old boy's got a toy boy, love is a many splendoured thing, depending on the artistic value of the banknotes.

That's true and my cynicism is directed at all of them not specifically gays but if they are happy with this 'arrangement' then why not?  but to call it 'love' is stretching it and it's amazing how many young, beautiful people love old rich guys haha
