  1. With the gretest respect, may I enquire if you are related in any way to Colonel Sanders?
  2. With the greatest respect, at that time the yellow shirts and their military support were the terrorists killing innocent people. No yellow shirts - no problems.
  3. Interesting - from the photo it looks as if he was transporting "round" cabbages. Chinese cabbages have a distinct shape: Whatever, cabbages are widely grown in Chiang Mai Province as they are in the Lomsak area of Isaan. I do not think the cabbages had actually been imported from China.
  4. Confucius say… man who put head on railroad track to listen for train likely to end up with splitting headache. RIP railway man.
  5. I wonder if the 100,000 baht also included "sexual favours"?
  6. Thank you for your observations and the same here in Cambodia. Thailand - the hub of Covid-19 and masks! For reference, I have recently had my sixth free vaccination (fourth Pfizer booster) at my local hospital in Siem Reap, courtesy of the Royal Cambodian Government. I never wear a mask these days.
  7. Well I never, Thailand's modern warfare: I suppose would be ideal for street protests?
  8. Set up local pig farms among the hotels and restaurants where the food waste will be most welcome!!
  9. Confuscios says "Man who leap from balcony - jump to conclusion"!!
  10. Named the Waterloo and Trafalgar Centre????
  11. Who will buy out the small breweries and shut them down??
  12. Yes indeed. I lived in the western extremities of Khon Kaen Province near Chumphae and Phu Wiang. Between the two were the mountains of the Phu Wiang National Park. Also in the region was the Ubonrat Lake (reservoir and dam) which had lakeside resorts including Pattaya 2. Photos of Phu Wiang National Park and Ubonrat Lake.
  13. Yes indeed, I watched the video and read Jonathan Head's full BBC interview on Google from here in Cambodia. The decrepit elderly Thai establishment may block in the Land of Dinosaurs but not in the wideworld outside - stupid "old farts"! On YouTube, by entering "pita limjaroenrat" you will find interviews in English with: NHK World Japan, CNN, France 24 English, Bloomberg Quicktake, ABC Australia, The Star Malaysia to name a few!!
  14. Something to look forward to? Happy days! (stock photo)
  15. Was he the Angkor Man?
  16. So what? When I was a Tourist Police Volunteer in Lanna and Isaan, and along with my Volunteer colleagues, Tourist Police stickers were allowed on our vehicles so that when attending festivals and other such events, we had direct access to parking areas for officials. I must admit the stickers did give "free passage" through RTP checkpoints, often with a friendly salute.
  17. Maybe Sino-Thai will put in a bargain bid for Kingpower's control of the club?
  18. Good comment. I was thinking along the same lines with the generals and other senior officers losing their "bag carriers", shoe shine boys, gardeners etc. etc.
  19. What on earth has this got to do with the tragic accident? If reporting such irrelevent information, how about including their footwear - colour, flip flops or trainers etc.!! RIP young parents.
