It looked to me that the altercation was clearly started by the cop going into the cell and kicking or "theeping" (pushing with the foot) the detainee. This is always stated as being the gravest insult in Buddhist Thailand. Of course, we don't know what went on before. Possibly the detainee was sitting blocking the door slightly. The police officer should learn about Thai culture and using his foot.

Donald does not have any friends for long. Even MELANIA can't stand him.

Surely bread, good or otherwise, goes stale and therefore inedible. It might even get some mould on it. So I am struggling to understand your comment about "good bread remaining edible". The exception to this would be if it was truly loaded with preservatives like Farmhouse bread.

I don't believe he is dead. The whole thing is a charade. Lies upon lies.

Hang on, I will just turn my music down.

That's the one!

Skype?

Count the posts with "Bangkok Hilton" in them.

Monkey House or Bangkok Hilton? I'll let you choose. Or invent a new cliché.

Please identify the make and model.

Was he?

The Lotus North Pattaya branch of Decathlon is definitely not there any more.

You're not alone. It seems the police and municipal officials (on the same road) also have not noticed.

Really? What do they do in school in Cambodia? Just speaking, no books or writing? You should learn to read Thai if you can already speak it. You will see how the tones arise and learn new words all the time. Once you have learnt Thai script, you will see that the Laos script is a close derivation/variant. The Khmer script is quite a long leap further but still related.

Has anybody else noticed it? It is outside Makro. It looks like a heap. It has created an impromptu motorcycle parking spot by shielding the inside lane immediately after it. It has been there for weeks.

The Chinese will tell them where to build, who is going to build it (The Chinese), how much they are going to borrow (from the Chinese) to build it and supply the trains. They won't draw the Thais attention to the heavy penalties (not all financial, Hello, Sri Lanka, Papua New Guinea....) hidden in the contract for the slightest breach or default. They sure as hell will try to gloss over the fact that control of the entity will be retained in Chinese hands. All of this will be facilitated through careful bungs to the right decision makers. Day by day, Thailand is drawn into China's sphere of influence.

Unlike in the UK where bank staff are mandated to ask what the money is for, where it came from and where it is going, bank staff in Thailand know to keep their trap shut, mind their own business and just process the transaction, for better or for worse.

No details, no official sources, an emotional plea for sympathy and a massive bump for the Go Fund Me page. I suspect this is fraudulent.

18 years from now he may get picked up at a checkpoint.

Collect the 'don't arrest me' instalments for 18 years and then move in for the kill

Add badminton, fruit carving and remarkably being understood on the phone whilst speaking at very low volume.

Is this related to the spate of accidents involving Chinese drivers?

Of course, it is the people that don't wash (you?) that wander around in their own funk and thus fail to notice pongs from other sources. It is time for that shower, sir.

One of the main drivers of Chinese immigration in the late 19th and early 20th century into Thailand was famine in China. They knew they could never starve in Thailand. It is very sad that a child has died. However the underlying reason for his death was not a lack of food. There is absolutely a huge part of this story missing. Could be sickness, maltreatment, very strange parental beliefs, anorexia or many more. Until there is a thorough investigation, the reason will not be known.

Does anybody else think Friendship smells?
