Wrong.

" half communist half fascist ideas......." Communist - NO. Part socialist - YES, and copying sucessful governments in many countries.

"Greene flips on public release of Jan. 6 tapes, claims it could ‘put the security of the Capitol at risk" She claimed she and others had tapes which show no violence etc. Now nobody can find the tapes. She's told thousands of lies and caused many serious divisive and wants he law to be what would be nice for her. she needs long-term jail, 30 years at least as punishment and as an example to others. Also just as bad, not one person in the GOP has mad any attempt to put her back in the appropriate legal/ethical/cultural boundaries.

Agree, IMHO rhodes should have received life imprisonment with no chance of parole and trump the same.

AISPlay is another option. Need to have AIS internet in the house/condo as the main internet facility. No additional monthly charges if you install AISPlay. AIS will come, bring a small box, install it (very simple, 1 minute) all free. Many channels free, can select others and pay a monthly fee. CNN I think is 199Baht a month, BBC the same. Dual language choice on many channels. We had a second AISPlay box installed in my bedroom Not free - once only 1,000Baht for the box, no other charges at all except any additional fee based channels selected. Young polite technician changed the default language to English.

Not funny, not appropriate.

Agree. Many of the posts on this subject over many years have been opinions / nice to have / would be nice for me words. Call the toll free C'link international line (Hobart office) and get correct answers with logical valuable real discussions. They listen, they don't bite.

Yes means what?

The emojis are now all anomymous on the screen involved.

I take your points however what the military did is absolutely not the intent of the law. But yes they did it. A question - is it likely the military would tell the courts to specifically overturn thaksins convictions / sentencing to jail terms? Rightly or wrongly I very much doubt the military would do that. If they did do that then surely the military could play GOD on any sentence given by a court on any Thai citizen. In other words total chaos, total destruction of the rule of law.

Is there some confusion here? - To qualify for the OAP there is the 35 year rule, but that 'rule' doesn't impact portability. - For OZ citizens who have been outside of OZ for a long time, many can still 'pass' the 35 year rule. If the OAP is approved (must be in Oz to submit the OAP aplication forms) then that citizen must remain in Oz for a period of 2 years (but trips in and out of Oz are allowed and the overall establishment of the 2 year period is not interupted by the time out (building the 2 years continues on uninterupted). When the 2 years is established then that person has portability. Note: - The first day of the 2 year period is the day that person returns to OZ. - The first day of the 2 year period is NOT the day the OAP was approved.

What is a 'Wellness Clinic', how is it different from a basic check up with blood tests?

And some small local clinics have doctors who aren't qualified. Beware. Example: for years there was a tiny shopfront on Petchaburi Rd., in Bkk. opposite Pantip Plaza. MyAdmin. mngr took many Thai and farang employees there, some were sick, some needed medical certificates. (e.g. for Work Permits). The 'Dr' spoke good English, for work permit med certificates he always look quickly at the 'patient' and said 'two arms, two legs, one head you pass'. After many years his qualifications were challenged by someone and he was closed down by the police. It happens. Along that stretch of road there's also a couple of fake dental clinics. Maybe same in Essan locations?

No, to the member who responds with the 'confused' icon to many many posts, with seemingly no reason to be confused.

Re point e. I wonder how many old hands recall the male upcountry Dr. who, about 15 years ago, chopped up his wife, clear definite proof found. He was charged with murder, the judge found him guilty but with no penalty whatever because 'he's a Dr., he's too valuable to society to be in jail'.

For correct answers call the centrelink International office in Hobart, they have a dedictated free hotline from Thailand. Easy to find the free call number on the main Centrelink site. C'link officers always good listeners and clear answers. But note all calls to Centrelink and many gov't agencies (e.g. DVA and tax and M'care, and more) are recorded and saved. If needed C'link will review what you have said in the past. And C'link has a 24/7 link to Oz immigration records both in and out. "forced exile for 2 years..." It's not as bad as that, after your return to oz and show that you are re-establishing a home in Oz you can depart and re-enter Oz often, perhaps out of Oz for 3 weeks. And the building of the 2 years period isn't interupted. By the rules you are expected to inform C'link of any planned inter. travel but you don't have to tell them where you are going abroad.

In the normal course of events / in the normal standard judicial processes he will be arressted when he sets foot on Thai soil and taken to jail. But right now he's making a lot of noise insisting he will come back. So what's happening? Does he have some personal way to be outside of the laws of Thailand? Lots of questions.

True FT was funny but you could anticipate a lot of the lines/situations. I guess that's true of a lot of comedy.

Big response. Never heard of it.

"Most of them, you can´t change anyway...." So how is anxiety a choice. I suffer from anxiety as an element of severe PTSD from my active service in VN. Also panic. Yes it comes and goes and I have no control over these conditions. It's not a choice I make.

Get a hobby, something like growing food.

Just wondering if you should compromise to let your wife be closer to her parents. 70K is not a 15 minute drive especially if she needs sometimes to get to parents quickly. Good luck.

Many str8 females (many countries) head for Bali to find a Bali beach boy holiday bf. I read this is popular with Australian, Japanese, Korean females and many from Europe.

Glut is popularly used vocab. in some countries.

So how come many of these deaths (assassinations) were openly mentioned / discussed as extra-judicial killings. At the height of his arrogance there were several examples of his belief that he was above the law. And he absolutely controlled the police. The paymaster spoke, the police instantly jumped. The police were frightened of him, clear as a bell.
