  1. Mine cost me 50 baht each 2 years ago. 1 for car, 1 for bike. Local clinic.
  2. An outbreak of morale... As someone has said previously. Leave them a!one you miserable, sour faced old scrotes.
  3. I'm not so certain other countries manage floods any better. Or there would not be so many news reports of floods. There would be no floods.... <deleted> happens in tropical countries, it will rain during the rainy season. Those houses built on original flood plains will flood, unless raised in the original Thai style. Concrete and asphalt will not allow water to drain, leading to flooding of roads and buildings. Pattaya is probably only a few tens of feet above mean sea level, making a canal a difficult option. I suggest that a watch for sink holes is maintained. They seem to be common risk in high flood risk areas. And open access holes where water pressure in the underground drains have pushed off the covers.
  4. What's an electric waste disposal plant? Disposal of electric waste or generating electricity from waste? If the latter, we could use one here. So much rice and corn detritus burned in the fields, 'Garden' waste burned at the side of the road, or left to spread around the place. Plastic waste not taken by the rag and bone people, (recycling operators) and, worst of all, charcoal making generating smelly smoke. Not that that can be called waste, or course, just noting that the waste can be burned in a proper waste incinerator, electricity generated and emissions cleaned. The wife's 2 unused rai at the back of us are available, as are the 3 unused rai down the road...
  5. Be careful what you wish for. Thailand's Ministry of Public Health has had a site hacked and 16 million patient's information is up for sale.
  6. What's the point of testing 1 day after the vaccination? We're they expecting immunity after a day? Surely they should have been tested prior to the vaccination, then they would have been isolated to protect others, who have probably now got the virus from the vaccination centre.S There is no substitute for incompetence.
  7. Some of the funniest people I have known are Anglican vicars.
  8. The law of unintended consequences... He was put in as PM by those who thought he would be strong and look after their interests. Seems like he might not be doing as well as they had hoped. Just goes to show, being army head and running the military doesn't make you a superhero of running government.
  9. It never will...tennis, European soccer, so called amateur athletics... I know now why my parcels cost so much to send, it's to fill the pot for sports sponsorship.
  10. And this annoys the <deleted> out of me. So much denigration of this and other vaccines. Only 45 countries have approved it for emergency use of recognise it as an acceptable vaccine. Ridiculous politicking. In my view, vaccines approved by WHO should be accepted and recognise used by all countries that are party to the WHO. Vaccines approve by a member state should be accepted and approved by all member states. Stop all these shenanigans and political horse <deleted>.
  11. Define 'high'... How many mi!lions, hundreds of thousands, tens of thousands.....directly attributable to the vaccines themselves.
  12. Not being ready or willing for a 'democracy' of whatever shape of size they come in would certainly account for the number of successful coups over the years... Perhaps the Singapore model is the way to go. Benevolent dictatorship. Oh, wait.... It would help if the coup leaders were trained in how to run a country next time. Perhaps add it to army training.
  13. Is Thailand a dry country now? I thought all restrictions were lifted and Thailand was opening up again. But I do notice, earlier on, that a man who was riding his motorbike and died after colliding with a shipping container in Bangkok, was dobbed in by his friend for drinking before driving. Was his friend arrested for drinking?
  14. They never had to teach you to be corrupt. You already were.
  15. Wärtsilä’s fast track delivery of a 200 MW engine power plant will help meet Cambodia’s rapidly growing electricity demand... Wärtsilä Corporation, Press release 1 July 2019 at 5:00 AM E. Europe Standard Time So this press release is 26 months old. 26 months, 2 years and 2 months....Nothing more needs to be said...
  16. It's not a loss. A loss is a minus figure at the end of the balance sheet. They made less profit than last year. That's all.
  17. Presumably, the facts being distorted are those alternative facts issued by then government.
  18. You are a statistician and/or epidemiologist?
