  1. IMO incorrect. BKK has many CCTV cameras surveying the airport and all the passengers 24/7! By replaying the recordings she will eventually be found.
  2. Any burn marks or relevant scars on her body? I bet not!
  3. Let us hope recreational Cannabis is on the list!
  4. IMO not at all. The Cannabis industry throughout Thailand and its population of almost 72 million (2025 Google) is a mere drop in the ocean!
  5. For reference; Best of the Best Destinations - (Pattaya is NOT mentioned!)

  6. So what's wrong with that? When I drove in Thailand, I regularly stopped to urinate alongside the road, with the hazard lights flashing on my Nissan Pick-up. When you suffer from an enlarged benign prostate gland, one has to quickly pee almost anywhere if one does not want to soak one's lower clothing!
  7. A Thai Submarine docked in a Cambodian Naval Base - I do not think so!!
  8. Thanks. I also share her pain and like your good self I also neglected my feet whilst the rest of my body was fully clothed. I went sea fishing from rocks on a beach near Mombasa in Kenya. I rolled up my jeans to my knees and suffered the consequences - blisters hanging from my ankles like bunches of grapes! After a couple of days of calamine lotion the pain began to ease.
  9. Is this Chinese submarine fitted with Chinese Lithium batteries? I hope there are plenty of escape hatches!
  10. Must have been a hair raising ordeal!
  11. I suppose one could say they have all gone up in a puff of smoke!!
  12. With the greatest respect, I disagree. I lived in Lanna when Thaksin was Prime Minister and he had a shoot on sight policy to eliminate the drug mules, both Thai and Burmese, smuggling Ya-Ba across the border from Burma. I once met one of his Border Guards at a function and this man boasted about how many mules he had shot by summary execution. No figures were made public.
  13. A step in the right direction IMO. Perhaps a wide range of Thai craft beers will now be on display and available for purchase and consumption, like here in Cambodia. Thai Bev and Singha Corporation get stuffed! Photo of selection of Cambodian Craft Beers:
  14. For reference Google - The Thai government is increasing the military's role in managing border issues with Cambodia, particularly in controlling border checkpoints and enforcing restrictions. This decision comes amidst rising tensions and a dispute over undemarcated border areas. The Thai military has established a Special Operations Centre to coordinate these measures.
  15. You probably do not understand, $300 is the total cost for an annual retirement visa - no hidden extras! No 800,000 baht in a bank, multiple re-entries included (in Thailand another 3,800 baht!), no bank account needed, do not have to show a bank book and other bureaucratic paperwork and no 90 day reports. I know what I prefer for a hassle free life in retirement and it is worth the extra 125$ per year. I hope Cambodia wins - peacefully through negotiations and the ICJ (which Thailand does not recognise)
  16. With respect, Preah Vihear Temple is not the currently disputed Temple. In 1962 The International Court of Justice ruled that this temple belongs to Cambodia and is on Cambodian land. The smaller temples of Ta Moan Thom, Ta Moan Tauch, and Ta Krabei temples, located in the Phanom Dong Rak mountain range, are also points of (current) contention. (ref. Google) Preah Vihear Temple (Cambodia) Ta Moan Thom Temple (disputed land)
  17. Poll If war breaks out with Cambodia what will you do? As a UK citizen living in happy retirement in Cambodia, crack an Angkor Beer and relax on my verandah! Modern day Cambodia is committed to peace, so if there is a war, it will be due to the idiotic Thai Nationalists backed by a sabre rattling and aggressive Thai Military! Let us not forget, it was the Thai Military that started this conflict by shooting dead a Khmer soldier on Khmer land! So, up yours Lieutenant General Boonsin Padklang, Commander of the Second Army Region.
  18. With respect, please expand on these powerful people to whom he was a danger
  19. Yes indeed. When I lived in Thailand my local Immigration Office was my agent for a fee! Very helpful and genuine stamps in my passport. I now live in Cambodia where retirement visas are so easily obtained through official agents. No further comment.
  20. Looks good to me! I have won many times with 82 and 28, both in the official lottery and in the local village (mafia) lottery when I lived up north in Thailand. My Nissan pick-up was 2816.
  21. Preparing covert plan to assassinate the Burmese Junta leader Min Aung Hlaing?
  22. No, that is what happens when Ganga shops stay OPEN! No further comment from me.
  23. If you go out in Pattaya for this entertainment, then expect the GBH if you do not pay money and insult Thais - no sympathy from me! No further comment.
