Bangkok is flat and apart from the heat, a near perfect cycling environment. Perhaps the Government officers (after all many of them are ex military and presumably fit) should set an example by cycling. If they do that, they will make safe cycle lanes all over Bangkok. In Europe, many MPs and ministers cycle to work.

The Community presumably does not include women yet. What wonky logic from clearly an academically challenged ruling family.

Still an odd way to report...

He does not even appear to have a family name. Jean-Francois appears to be his first name only.... presumably whoever reported him missing has given the Police his full name.

Not particularly amusing comments as it is quite possible that they will be beheaded or set on fire or thrown off a building or drowned in a cage....all in front of a video camera for propaganda purposes

Just look at the Forbes Rich List and you will see that the alcohol tycoons have had the government in their pocket. I doubt very much that Prayuth can do much about it as he also needs powerful civilians on his side. I do however wish the new government would change the tax structure to discourage spirits consumption.

Is Chalerm now starting to do his job?
Yes...next thing he will be sending in the bulldozers and having to turn the sites into parks like he had to do when he tore down part of Sukemvite.
I think you will find it was Chuwit who did that

First of all, what is a "nonce?" Second, these guys do not seem that bad or dangerous to me. If the guy who "did something" to 11 year old kids received a suspended sentence, chances are that he already served many months waiting for his trial AND what he did what not that bad (ie. touching or taking photos vs. rape).
Statutory rape means having consensual sex with a girl under 18. So this dude may have had sex with a very willing 17 year old girl. So what? Maybe the US should drop the age of consent down to 15. That would eliminate 1000s of "nonces" from the world.
Finally, the dude who is wanted for extortion regarding a motorcycle, send him back for trial. I must tell you though, I have been swindled by many people regarding loans and investments, which they have never paid back. The police will not help at all. They claim it is a "civil matter." Therefore, I must hire a $300/hour lawyer, who sends out letters and demands, which generally result in zilch. That is justice in America. So I just let it go. It's not worth the stress.
In summation, these guys all have sinned - but so have we. They are really not much different than any of us.

I can't help but think that you are deranged. Touching 11 year old kids is OK is it? Statutory rape ok is it? What is wrong with you?

Another gross misjudgement from the man in Norway. Or part of another devious plan.... Beware!

Klaus Peter Buhrig. How many nationalities could it possibly be?

The only problem might be getting the work permit because some offices will not issue work permit on a visa obtained as a dependent.
If the work permit is issued then go to immigration and get an extension based upon working verses as dependent or she could stay on the dependent extension and work.
I am a British farang with a Thai wife. I have an "O" visa and a work permit. Does not seem to be a problem. Immigration did ask my wife why she bothered to marry a farang earning less than her.... To which she replied "LOVE"!

A bit expensive
700 x Iphones at approx 26,000 is under 20,000,000 baht, and Ipads are not that expensive
so where is the rest of the money going?
Yingluck... Please do something about corruption in your government!

Provided the rise is not to finance wifi which is dangerous for drivers and does not help the traffic flow, I do not mind the increase . The recent wifi statements stink of some backhanded deal and should be thoroughly investigated.

Back in my good old days In England I would get a phone call from a chief constable with information on the paedophiles that would get of because of some technicality in the court cases and they are 100% guilty.
.
Well me and some underground buddies would pick these guys up and have fun with them for two or three days and depending on how bad these people are they couldn't ever do anything wrong or harm children again!!!
I really f**king hope someone like me is around to do these things in Thailand
I hope these guys you mutilated were guilty not like the Guildford 4 and the Birmingham 6

The only potential benefit of this type of exercise (apart from self agrandissement) is that the Embassy will serve the UK and its citizens better as a result. From what I read, nothing will change and therefore it was a fruitless exercise. I hope that the Ambassador and William Hague read this and realise that the FCO must do more than self image building.
I am appalled at the new passport situation which is both slow and very expensive. If this service does not improve (ie get passports quicker to recipients) UK citizens should at least expect a reduction in cost for this third class service.
I do not think the FCO has a clue how deeply UK citizens living in Thailand feel about the level of service provided by the British Embassy in Bangkok. The ambassador clearly does not know and despite this "meet the people" exercise, he is clearly out of touch.

Thai drivers are pretty good compared to Saudi.
I'll agree with you on this one. Saudi drivers make the Thais look like angles.
Angles or Angels?!

Hi,
It would cost you around 14500-15000.
Cheers
OK thank you. Do you happen to know how much the Curve 8900 and 8520 models go for?
Thanks again.
I bought a curve 8520 about three months ago in MBK for THB11,000

yesterday in parliament session, Chalerm said it was pointless to grill Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva as "he led the only democratic government in the world tainted by bloodshed".
i thought the reds said the government weren't DEMOCRATIC??
now Phua Thai MP Chalerm says they are??
wasn't that democracy thing something that the reds were fighting for ?
now Chalerm says they already have it?
is it time for the reds to to go home then?
oh sorry, for a moment, i forgot that the red version of democracy is much different to the regular version of democracy
Glad to know that Chalerm and his murderous sons have clean hands!
I think for the record I would like to state that one of Chalerm's sons shot and killed a policeman in a night club. Chalerm's wealth and corruption assured that his son was not tried and imprisoned for murder. As for Chavalit, he oversaw quite recently the use of military teargas against the yellow shirts. The canisters exploded ripping of limbs of protesters and killing a young lady. Both Chalerm and Chavalit have blood on their dirty hands and represent the ugly and corrupt side of old Thai politics.

Maybe I missed it in the 8 or 9 news articles I read about this, but I'm a bit confused as to why the court is doing this at night...? Don't courts usually meet during the day?
They started 7 hours ago!

I wonder if their man in the yellow hummer has been caught up in all this?

Just wondering how the verdict is going to effect the exchange rate if it leads to unrest.
This is not a difficult question to answer..... Unrest means that the Baht loses value.

Do you have an email address of your own so that I can contact you in respect of getting the nespresso pods in Thailand? I have trawled google and cannot find the supplier! Thanks
Kindergarten teachers bound and blindfolded five year olds "to teach them to concentrate"

This really gets to me. The two teachers should be fired as they do not have the brainpower to judge right and wrong. They are just too stupid. The Principal should face criminal damages and prison (much more than THB20,000 per head <deleted>) for child abuse.
