You are a comedian, there's no doubt about that! -
Thailand’s experiment with weed goes up in smoke
Shocked farang replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
One thing that needs to be reminded is that the medical stablishment does recognise the power of Cannabis as medicine but only the CBD component, the THC component is responsible for the "high" effects of Cannabis in the brain and the medical stablishment does think that it's potentially dangerous in some people, this is a fact, a scientific fact, even though I personally believe that it should be legal, for responsible adults, of course, never teenager, never! -

The gennie will be forced back into the bottle, with the tail between his legs... Poor Anutin... -
Which is really odd at this point in time by the way Now I am in a country where almost nobody (except some elderly people) wears a mask, I can see people's face and expression! I urge Thais to stop hiding behind those stupid masks!

Thailand drafts bill to decriminalize its billion-dollar sex trade
Shocked farang replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Some businesses that get extorted are totally legal businesses, such as restaurants and bars. You only need a certain amount of success in Thailand to become a victim of extortion. -
Exactly, as a matter of fact, using Cannabis one develops tolerance, there are some receptors in the brain that get blocked, so the person want to smoke more and more. For people who understandably want the benefits of medical cannabis they should go for CBD, without the pscyco active effects of the THC.

Immigration arrest three overstaying foreigners on Koh Phangan
Shocked farang replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
There's one who was arrested in a Cannabis shop (you can see the Cannabis leaf on the door), he should be pardoned as everyone knows, Cannabis make people forgetful! -
This no hab sounds funny but it's the spirit, the kindness of Thais who try to be nice to foreign people despite the little fluency they have in English. Yesterday I was in the BTS and a Thai girl bumped into me, she said "solly, solly, Sir", I said with a smile, no problem, Mai pen rai, she was so pleased that falang can speak a little, nit nói, Thai! LOL

What to do if Thai police stop you and attempt a ‘shake-down’
Shocked farang replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The article is right about paying the "fine" on the spot as it useless to fight against the Thai police, the act like a mafia and if the issue is brought to the police station more and more senior officers will be looking into the issue which means it will become more expensive. You cannot beat the Thai police, period. -
Prayut Angered When Asked To Respond To Thaksin’s Comments
Shocked farang replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
This dispute between Taksin and Prayut should be resolved in a Muay Thai boxing match alive in Pattaya. I would bet on Taksin, how about you guys? -
Koh Tao is somewhat part of my life as I did my Divemaster's course there back in 2002. (After that I continued to become an istructor in the west) I ended my stay by getting Dengue fever and had to go to a hospital in Koh Samui. Back then the island was so relaxed, most of the people staying there were involved in the diving industry, the dive sites were perfect for learners. I just feel sad that the reputation of this beatiful island is so demaged now.
