    Sutthipong said that he and the other officials were acting on orders from PM Prayuth, DPT Prawit and RTP chief Gen Suwat Chaengyopdsuk and other top RTP brass. 

     

    He told the public to stay calm, and call 1178 to report infractions.

    I do try to stay calm but when people are acting on Prayuth's and Prawit's orders it's not easy, I need to drink more tea.

  2. I find the government hospitals better (the 'specialists' also worked at private hospitals), as someone (i.e. wife/gf) can stay with you 24/7 if wanted, i spent a total of 5 weeks in isolation (TB). My gf at the time now wife was able to go out and buy me, a soft pillow, soft mattress cover, and a fan. bread and cheese 3in1 coffee etc. total cost with 'falang' food, isolation room, meds, was around $6k..

  3. To get back to OP and away from weed. : or will this be moved to farming and gardening? ; I have recently brought a grafted sapling from a garden centre (300b), as money can grow on trees, from all info i have gathered, 3-5 leaves to start, but preferably dried and make tea. area has been prepared with a bin full of fish heads covered in soil covered in grass cuttings, it will either keel over and die or shoot for the stars apparently they can grow up to 100 ft. the top two leaves and the new ones sprouting have been in 3 weeks.

    It sparked a series of online picture sprees suggesting that lamppost adornment corruption was even more widespread in Thailand.

    With all these 'Adorned' lampposts everywhere in Thailand it does seem strange that they all look like very similar in design made by the same company. I might also add they are often on bridges or flyovers.

  5. It maybe helpful if you tell us how much you want to spend. I would recommend Toyota as it is easier and cheaper to buy after market spares. A hatchback may meet your requirement better than a saloon. First off give it a road test, boot it and see how it performs, get it hot, any smoke ? leave it idling awhile without the A/C on and see if the electric fans kick in on normal, then look underneath for any dripping oil, still interested get it checked out independently, only rust here normally is on the bottom of doors, not chassis, (no salt on the roads here)  unless it has been parked up near the sea/driven on beaches, stay with 2 wheel drive if I was you. Also drive it on full lock left and right note any clicking sounds from CV joints. Good luck.

    It isnt a fact at all , an increasing number of Mom & Pop shops are now abiding by the law , they usually first get a warning letter from the authorities and threats of 100 000 Baht fines and if they they caught selling alcohol outside of the permitted hours m they get prosecuted .

       Yes, some M&P shops take no notice of the law and continue breaking it, but that doesnt then make it legal for them to be doing it . 

    Maybe where you live but they all sell underground lottery tickets, the winning numbers are clearly on display, and their lethal Lao Khao whisky, 2 people have died in our village in 1 month alone, I asked my missus why police do nothing ? "Him always pay Polith"
