  1. Only someone familiar with the Baht bus in Pattaya would understand your reply, yes I agree 100%, if you are going to ride on the stairs, you'd better have enough strength, he probably overestimated his strength to be able to hold on when the centrifuge forces happen. It's so easy to condemn the poor driver as reckless but probably the rider was responsible for his own demise.
  2. You say Cannabis is not legal. In Thailand it's 100% legal.
  3. I don't know the reason that so many people keep on comparing Cannabis with alcohol. 1) People who drink, usually don't like cannabis. 2) Anyone who has the experience of both knows the effects are completely different. 3) Both can be harmful depending on how they are used. 4) Alcohol sure doesn't have any medicinal usage while cannabis definetly does.
  4. Ok, thanks for letting me know!
  5. Plus Apple is not available as a server, only as a client.
  6. This is the culprit!
  7. Exactly, the Red shirts movement, the Thai equivalent for MAGA is dead. Taksin is politicaly dead and should be burried ASP.
  8. It's the ever present concept of face that many westerns fail to understand before they come to Asia, it can actually have fatal consequences.
  9. I feel sorry for the Thais who had to endure this narcissist / Psycopath who above all has no idea of the concept of "face" that prevails everywhere in Asia. So sorry.
  10. For most Thais, living in a sex industry city is really no problem. If you don't want to be a bar girl, then get a dignified job in the 7-11. I have met many pretty girls working in the 7-11 who could have been successful in the sex industry. Pattaya will always attract sex tourists and hookers, it's its destiny.
  11. And actually I want to go a bit further into this, Coca Cola is a very harmful substance due to the incredible amount of sugar it contains. I'm not comparing it to Cannabis in any way. It's harmful "per se".
  12. The legal status of both substances is exactly the same: legal. That's the point.
  13. Cannabis is legal in Thailand, once it was removed from that list it automatically became legal. Is Coca Cola legal? Yes, because it's not on the list.
  14. One thing is sure, the Thai police is very happy as they will get back to their lucrative business of extorting farangs, specially on the islands. People caught with a join and paying up to 5000 Baht to avoid going to jail.
  15. That is true, in LOS something being published or declared does not mean in any way that it will be implemented!
  16. When they removed Cannabis from the list of forbidden substances they made it legal, not decriminalized as some people here claim. This is what happens when you make a mind altering substance legal and at the same time don't create a regulatory framework. This whole Cannabis thing in Thailand was done in the most stupid way. But I think that it can be still done, to create a strong regulatory framework, not this "free for all" Cannabis carnival that we see in the present.
  17. Yes, but you just can't compare the quality and value of legal pot with illegal. There's no comparison.
  18. It was so clear from the beginning that they were chasing their 15 minutes of fame! Now they have become Asean Now superstars!
  19. Best tasting food in the world is clearly overrated.
  20. One should compare Thailand with Cambodia where there are almost no taxes on imported products. The way things work in Thailand is that the local food companies finance the campaigns of Thai politicians who in turn keep the high taxes in place to "protect" the Thai companies. It's a vicious circle.
  21. We farangs will always miss our Big Joke!
  22. 5 Years from now, AI will take the whole world. We will all work for robots!
