Yes thats very true, many European, Scandinavian & south American countries are cool with topless, to them its just normal!

Her other shenanigans not acceptable behaviour but the topless bit, who cares! They are only breasts and all females have them, some better than others!

Yes you have to live in hope dont you!

Nusa Dua in the south was still quite liveable when I was last there in 2018, I couldn't say the same for Kuta and its neighbouring suburbs!

I find your comment rather confusing. Also I dont believe there will in our lifetimes reunification between North & South Korea unless you are presently in kindergarten!

The 1st flight did go ahead with no passengers, just "official documents" claimed by the illegal junta military but it was cash form the Myawaddy banks!

Thailand already has a reputation for over charging, dual pricing and taxis driver ripoffs, again I blame the authorities for not enforcing fares & procedures, this is a continual negative for pending Thai tourists and will have an effect on peoples choice of transport & holiday destinations. When will they learn?

Would you be happy paying 30% more than the market value for something?

Tuk Tuk driving is a restricted activity so how do you deport a citizen?

It becomes more apparent by the day that the entire RTP force along with its promotion system is crooked, I reckon he has plenty of dirt on other high ranking officers that are up to what he is accused of and similar so he will keep getting moved around and I bet neither of these tall poppies get jailed and or stripped of their ill gotten gains! That's Thailand, its their country and their rules like it or leave it!

Yes thats what happens when the island Mafia is a single very wealthy family as opposed to several families!

Yes exactly correct re the air brakes, so almost definitely the drivers fault. Probably drunk, high or playing on his mobile phone! RIP to the victims

You mean Thailand is full of Mafia & corrupt officials!

So why do you think the EC wants to evict the MFP from politics, it seems like MFP have some movers & shakers who want to curb the shananigans that the elected members and elite have been getting up to. Sadly it will be a long and winding road given how many snouts are in the trough!

You have to ask yourself who is responsible & accountable because all those in the picture are just drooling to swoop!

Whilst Xi's B&R initiative and helping Thailand with its railway project has its benefits China only ever does what benefits China. You may call that good governance but those developing countries often fund chinas gain and can ill afford to do so. If the lovely Xi was a responsible world leader he would not be assisting Putin in his murdering of Ukrainians, he would be encouraging North Korea to focus on peace & development for the people instead of warfare. If he were a responsible leader he wouldn't be supporting the illegal junta in Myanmar and so it goes on. But its suits his cause to have these rebel nations as allies in case of conflict whilst he is trying to land grab wherever he sees a weakness or an opening. The world has become a <deleted>ty place full of <deleted>ty people!

Yes its always sad to hear how many fatalities there are and as other members have pointed out these numbers are deaths at the scene of the accidents. Unfortunately the authorities do nothing sensible to educate Thai drivers, there is no real consistent policing of law breakers, for motor bikes which are the largest fatality's ie not wearing helmets, actually having a licence to drive a motor bike, driving on the correct side of the road observing road lane lines painted on the road, waiting until there is no oncoming traffic before over taking, looking both ways at an intersection before making a turn, maximum 2 on bike etc etc. So I blame the department of transport and the Road police for failing in what they are paid to do. Tourists hiring motorbikes should have to have a valid licence from their own country, everyday I see newbies who have no riding experience what so ever so another accident waiting to happen. For car & pickup drivers again do licence checks, educate drivers that those lines painted on the road are actually there for a reason, if you want to cross lanes check the way is clear and indicate prior. A red light means stop but everyday I see vehicle and especially bikes running red lights. At roundabouts you must give way to traffic on the roundabout, give way to vehicles on your right when turning. Over loaded pickups is a common sight but the police do nothing. An indication of Thailands third world status and peoples greed where money takes precedence over the law and common sense, Its not going to change anytime soon!

Putin will be arriving shorty to coordinate a "special operation" in Phuket!

I have no reason or motive to fabricate a story, I am just recounting what I read to the best of my recollection!

I dont remember where but was reading about the Burmese boys last year from the best of my recollection, an article came up on Koh Tao's history of murder & crime. Due to several unresolved murders the authorities sent a new commander who according to the article was shot dead on arrival at the pier! From memory it was back in the 80's or 90's, It certainly didnt seem like a BS article!

What a disgusting individual, find him, fine him and deport him!

Are you not smart enough to get online and look for yourself!

No surprise to discover fraudulant activities in Thailand.

That would be too intelligent!

How do you know he is Western or is that your presumption?
