If Donald Trump had not given tax cuts to the wealthy. If George Bush Jr had not given tax cuts to the wealthy, no on would have a problem, even those who cry crocodile tears about debt. Still, the wealthy must have tax cuts, it is of course, the

Kerry has an outstading track record delivering packages of 'Dread Bread, Strawberry Gorilla & Woodinville Wafflestomper' to my condo. I do live in the suburbs though.

You have lived in Thailand for how long and you believe the perps story? Any criminal in Thailand has to have an excuse, from brake failure, to he ripped me off. BTW I really liked Joe Ferrari's excuse's. Who knows what actually happened. At the end of the day he savagely murdered a person

What is the point of Pheu Thai even standing? We know what will happen if it wins. It will be removed from government, same as before. Why would this time be any different?
Looks like they want to have an election, ok they did promise one. If Pheu Thai does not stand, it is not an election. I hear you though, never liked these non alcohol days. Lets just call the charade, and tell the majority of Thai voters to go home, never really meant to have an election that Pheu Thai will win hands down.

I will keep an eye out for when the Pfizer Bivalent vaccine returns.
That wasn't so hard was it. I'm sure moderna bivalent is excellent.
However now you have an excuse not to get a booster. Heh. BTW still believing you are serious about wanting one. They post up the hospitals giving vaccinations every month on the Chaing Mai News facebook site. Hospitals and vaccination times do change month to month. Look in there and make some phone calls. That is if you want a pfizer bivalent.

That is interesting. Please provide details of where it is available and who it is available to. I have been dealing with one of the biggest private hospital groups in Thailand and it is not yet available to them for general distribution. They told me first priority, which is understandable, will be the front line health workers. They also told me there is no information when it will be available to the general public.
Contact the local hospitals giving vaccinations in your area. For example there are 4 or 5 hospitals giving vaccinations in Chiang Mai, any given month. Last month, April, The Chiang Mai Neurological Hospital had pfizer bivalent. I assume a couple others likely did too. As far as I could tell they were not limiting it to any group. No publicity about this. I came in expecting to get a regular booster, and was offered pfizer bivalent.
BTW I'm posting this up assuming you actually want a booster, so many post things for other reasons these days.- 1

'Nigerains dominated foreign prison numbers' ... in Thailand In the 1970's & 80"s?! The idea of Fake Facts is to make it somewhat believable. Try again.

The newer bivalent version of the Pfizer vaccine has been available in Thailand, especially Bangkok, the past couple months -- though not especially well publicized.
Pfizer bivalent available in Chiang Mai, free. No publicity at all.

I recall a German being bottled to death by some friendly locals he was drinking with for "insulting Thailand". No proof or statements about what he said or did, just the word of the killers. According to westerners in the area, no fines or jail time was given for this 'patriotic' act of violence.
That is what they do in your country too? A primitive, violent land of lager louts ready to bottle.- 1

From the powerful beacon of the Murdoch press that is, The New York Post, and what appears to be a geriatric Fox second string talking head in the picture. This will go exactly nowhere. Why not get back to the Laptop From Hell? That at least might have a dickpic, plus Hunters porn collection to keep MAGA no hopers a howling.
Meanwhile for the rest of us, ten days to the draft.- 4

Good to hear celestial tourists are back to filling spinner luggage with tinned mackeral & durian chips for lunch & dinner back at the hotel. Quality big spenders on the prowl. -

Within 6 months over 100 of those outlets will be out of business with more to follow. Its been a gang rush but the market cannot support that many shops; another boom & bust, cycle.

Sundowner Motel, 6101 Central NE, Albuquerque
It was remodeled eight years ago, but still has touches of the old gone to seed, original. The place where Bill Gates & Paul Allen started Microsoft. After, you can double up, do a 'breaking bad' tour of the city. -

Good to know what you think of Thais and Thai society. BTW, absolutely positive Thai people care about your opinions as much as bird excrement on a wall. Still it is amazing to see that 'western missionary culture' & saving the ignorant heathen, is still going as strong today as 150 years ago. Albeit, the religious side has been dropped.

Many studies have shown, masks work to a degree. You do not believe any of them and the sight of a person wearing a mask offends you. Moreover, you find it deeply satisfying to say anyone who does not agree with you, cannot think for themselves, are jittery, easy to scare, basically 'sheeple'. Well, bigots do what bigots must.
If people, Thai people, wear masks in Thailand, what business is it of yours, or Rooster for that matter? It's none of your business. Relax, chill, mark this as a wake up call, you need another hobby; say Wednesday night bingo or shuffleboard.- 1

What are the consequences for social solidarity when you can't see the other person
The eyes are the window to the soul. As long as you can see a persons eyes you can relate to them.
Can't think of a better reason to wear mirrored sunglasses. Mirror shades and a mask, my look for this decade. Not showing "social solidarity", or 'unrelatable?! I'm an expat, why would I care.

US declines Thai F-35 bid, offers F-16 and F-15 jets instead
in Thailand News
Posted
The US waited until AFTER the elections before releasing the news. Spikes the old regimes attempts to use the F-35 as a 'stalking horse'. Maybe they should give Xi a call, see where to go from here. ????
