Chinese with Thai passports ?
Juristic persons are Thai companies.
they have legally nominally Thai majority partners if land purchase is included, but typically do not.
And condos or houses built on leased land from Thais are not counted. Still all the is dotted and Ts crossed in these changing times.But this Chinese thing has many panties in a bunch and this level of big money can but lots of property built on nominally thai land plots. But the Thais get a stipend in return.

8 minutes ago, kennw said:Without proof pot supporters are jumping on the excuse that this was a set up. Maybe they should just acknowledge pot is another drug that should not be encouraged like all drugs including alcohol. So this government places restrictions on the hours that alcohol can be sold why not do the same for pot. Dont get me wrong I enjoy a beer or two, but the whole pot thing smacks of tourism promotion and some behind the scene commercial benefit of certain connected individuals. Good luck with promoting Thailand as a great family holiday venue.
Well CBD Oil and an occasional puff has significantly helped with a recovery from serious shoulder surgery and a long standing arthritis / spinal spondylosis issue. Two beers and I start feeling ill and sleep badly. More serious problems in a practical sense from booze here. Not a good juxtaposition of drugs and legality IMHO.
If you are talking quality of life and family friendly tourism, I’d be happy pot was regulated but legal, and booze banned.
So I could not disagree with you more.

The whole thing screamed Set-up / False flag operation. Do these anti-marijuana or anti-Anutin forces think people are really this gullible?
Some adult(s) with an agenda set this up to get the picture, these kids are just props.But so very sad they would abuse these children for their political ends.
Certainly the adult providing it openly should have been arrested. But I really doubt he was the only one involved.
It’s not the street legal status of marijuana that would allow access, it’s been available for decades. Only the political aspect of preventing Anutins possible rise to PM next election would prompt this despicable ‘Photo-Op’ to be staged.

But the micro-brewers of quality beers are held back while Lao kao is sold day or night and the cheap big beers and booze kill dozens every weekend and each day all week. And wine is taxed out of the market.
More ganja smoked less beer sold.
Gee, wonder who’s financing the push-back???The number of deaths from marijuana is significantly lower by far than those who start to drive with no training and just kill themselves inadvertently. And then add booze.
This is trying to shove a spike in Anutin’s pre election popularity and some older guys knee jerk reactionary attitude. And push back on lower booze sales.
The cat is out of the bag, cows in the corn, horse out grazing, and billions already invested to serve a very willing market.
Any anecdotal problems are counted on your fingers, not anything like alcohols extensive extinction numbers.
Give it a rest, and find another attack point on Anutin, this is about the only thing he got right.-

A popular policy.
Must be illegal because people liked it.And the other party succeeded with it.
Enough reason to end the party?
And if you oppose the successful public policy you must be legally / moral justified to call your opposition cheaters. Because it’s only kegal to do things tge public doesn’t want….
Never mind democracy style politics is supposed to be about following the will of the people/voters.
The Poo Thai Party logic is utterly failing the sniff test. Hope the EC sees through this ploy and dissolves the PTP for electoral and legal ineptitude.

Had DTAC phones for over 15 years.
Had Truevision for over 15 years.
I do NOT want True to ever be my phone company. This merge is a truly horrible idea.Stop it now!

If they have another, they must have one more after that, so it’s not left at an even number of coups, which would be an inauspicious number.

Being too ‘publicly well to do’ is not a good plan.
Particularly when your home country is at war, leadership reeling, and some country men will do anything to not have to fly home to be drafted shortly, when their money runs out. -

If the dog saw his food being taken from him and given to a lesser status dog by a lesser statust master, he could well want to assert his claim.
We have one huge dog, but we feed him after the smaller dogs and keep him leashed till his time comes. He also is told to sit and wait for an eat command before he can start.
We must always let him know WE control food and never him. This works. But we also never take his food from him. Food for the others arrives separately, even if prepared together.
If you think like dogs think you can control most dogs, if not you get problems.

You have to detach the loosened face to then lose face. Jaws agog and aghast.

Only my opinion, but drug takers are mentally ill by their own choosing and if brought down by a stun gun, then they have only themselves to blame. "Mentally ill" seems to be an excuse for too many misdemeanors these days.
In my observations very few actually understand the pit of hell they will be falling into. If they don’t recoil on first try, they will quickly be pulled into. Some folks have the will to pull back after curiosity is satisfied, others are deeply addictive personalities and get hooked by second tastes and go to the extreme very quickly.
Making a bad decision with your own life quickly becomes a danger to others, but need not be an on the street death sentence by cop.
Try to save them from themselves.
Mit’s not always a lost cause, sometimes it is. Some just see the addict as trash to be removed and not a lost soul in turmoil and wishing for help. -

I have seen a poor guy with a machete, out of his mind on yabaa, corralled and safely subdued with these ‘prods’. It seems a useful tool and far less cruel than many alternatives.
In USA I wish they tried this over guns or heart attack causing stun guns. Far less unnecessary deaths for the mentally ill is a good result, low tech or high tech.

Scoot accepted money to fly this person.
The money was paid by a legitimate agent they do business with.
They accepted money to fly a person not a contract for the agent.
If they have stopped flying this route since he left England it falls on them, after accepting payment for his transport, to assist in finding him another airlines seat at a fair price not far above what money they took, and not just keep his money.-

In agreement, seems like they wish to rush to Judgment so that Prayut can Chair the APEC event coming up. Isn't this how the 2014 event began by the Yingluck administrations attempt at pushing through an Amnesty bill, and then the protests started....standby for a mess like in 2010, and 2014 if this goes Prayuts way...
What they said was two weeks to allow Prayut to respond. He did faster than expected. Then they were allowing 2 weeks to decide on the issues.
Since Prayut responded promptly, the second two weeks can start early.no foul.

Seeing the video and knowing this corner well, the biker screwed up big time.
This is the road to the island dump, a small lane off the main ring-road. A 100% standard daily turn for this truck 365 nights a year.
if you look at the stained side road in daylight shot you see where the trucks make the right corner dripping disgusting wetness regularly.
Truck was properly in left lane, (we drive on left here), with signal on as video shows, for a right turn, and well lit from behind.Bike Driver missed the signal.
The bike was screaming along. You don’t even see it approach, just a 3 frame blur till the crash is happening. So going very fast.
Likely driver didn’t know dump is there, and so expected truck to be stopping on left side for loading.
So, he tried to blast past the truck on right, but the opening closed fast, he tried to veer left, but didn’t make it at such high speed.
Sad but clear not trucks fault.
RIP to the passenger. -

"Maybe what happened is you failed to indicate you were turning ,and this is why the
motorbike crashed into you."
That is probably what did happen, but I would also say that the motorbike was going far too fast especially as the garbage truck would be traveling very slow as it was making a turn.
If you do not assume a huge, well lit, orange, garbage truck, will not be going slow, stopping randomly and turning laboriously, you should not be driving near one, ever.

Has the property now sold?
Why haven't we heard anything more about this tragic case.....?
I guess like most similar tragedies, something will come into the news in a year or so.....
Thailand is so lacking in clever, investigative journalists.......what we see here is very poor quality news reporting!
Draconian defamation laws inhibit any in-depth reporting in most cases.
Since the truth is not a defence a reporter, and distribution source of a story that makes someone lose face, they tend to wait until courts rule. Only then can you say in print ‘this person did this bad thing’.-

Their women will back at home drinking champagne, smoking dope and taking m*** and c*** in preparation for their home coming. These guys know how to party. Notice how the Pattaya based Hells Angel style MCC and gangs avoid them.
When I lived in Saudi the Arab bikers had a Harley Davidson Gang- The HOGs!
Harley Owners Group.
Harley Owners Groups are not gangs. They are a world wide, company sponsored group of ‘owners’, nothing more. More of a touring group of geriatric riders, getting out on Holliday and week ends, not a hard living group of ex military hard cases.
Nothing at all like Hells Angels, Nomads, Devils Disciples etc.-

The BMA can't even switch on installed traffic lights that would help with the flow of traffic. How are they going to police the tens of thousands of illegally parked cars, trucks, taxis etc on a daily basis. Just word salad.
Buggers put the boot in mine last weekend I’m driving rain. Worse he put note of offence in open plastic bag under wiper open side up, papers fell apart on removal.
