You are probably correct... but not necessarily so.... if enough 'attacks' hit Chinese tourists it will almost definitely stop many from coming - they have a massive home-network of reviews and comments and recommendations, and many DO listen to positive and negative reviews (way more then westerners do!) It may not stop the greater masses, but it is possible that many will boycott Thailand, and by many i still mean masses!

Som Nom Na Thailand...

And the area they are trying to crush. They only want super rich and dirt poor..they see themselves as gawds and act accordingly. 

Taky stood up against them and look where he is, (yes yes i know he fillef his boots too, so please dont go there). 

All this is no news and why i now consider Thailsnd as a 'groundhog day' country, certain developments are running full steam ahead and yet most things are not and repeat day after day...its one reason why after a decade here im out..

Took me 5, but started realizing it after 2...

I'm always amazed that 2/3 rds of the annual gun deaths (so ~ 24,000-ish out of 36,000-ish) are suicides.

 

I am under the impression that 'bump stocks' cannot be regulated, so Congress would have to pass a law. Not gonna happen.

 

 

ATF Says It Doesn’t Know If It Can Regulate Bump Stocks

 

WASHINGTON ― The head of the federal agency tasked with regulating firearms said Wednesday it does not have direct authority to regulate or ban bump stocks ― devices that allow semi-automatic weapons to function like machine guns ― but is looking into whether can reclassify them as firearms to regulate them under existing law.

You are 100% correct. So wouldn't it be great to remove this 'easy solution' from the people who need help? As it has reduced the rate dramatically in Australia.

Cue the "Australia is not America" beatdown.

How can you install responsibility into these Monkies when even 'Capt' lets him off and blames the wet conditions???

Looks like someone has a relative that wants to get into the trough.....outsourcing from any sector of the Thai admin, usually ends in failure after all the funds have gone

Yep... Funnily enough, someone's cousin does this type of work - 555

Should start a travel website highlighting the worst poles in Pattaya. Soon they may all be sorted out. Either that or tell the indigenous there is good money in copper, this will resolve multiple issues. Remove the excess cables and many Darwin award candidates :)

And the Thais are bastions of cleanliness and conservation now I forgot.

Just look at any bit of vacant land, it'll be covered in Thailand's national flower, the plastic bag. Get a grip you morons and lead by example ?

Exactly... Are they trashing the place without a Work Visa? Leave the locals jobs alone :)

Ahhh!  You falang, you no understand, Thai 21st. Century, she.....er,,,,er... coming soon, Na Krap.

Considering this is 2561 in Thailand. I would say the estimate is about right :)

Ha... Yes, such past conflicting beliefs that 'English, Chinese or even Spanish' are the common global tongue. When clearly we have learned that 'Thai' is the future :)

Dear Lord above us. Someone needs to read up on the 'Dunning-Kruger' effect. 

Nice one. :)

Ha, it seems we too suffer from 'Dunning Kruger' effect. Except the opposite end of the definition, whereby we assume everyone gets us.
