    Actually it is pretty much every one.

    The Myanmar military rulers have a great deal on their plate at present and need to keep anyone they can onside. They are in an extremely weak position. You can be sure that Thailand's actions towards the junta's enemies particularly the KNLA came up in the negotiations.

    Did they really run out or just lock the cupboards? 🙂 Given the behaviour of groups of South Asian men on planes when confronted with 'free' alcohol, that is what I would have done.

    Is he okay healthwise, he seems out of breath doing nothing but strolling.

    So, we have a severe chronic alcoholic using spirits rather than beer, drinking over 40 (UK) units (1 cl of alcohol) per day, who miraculously survived to 44, and drove every day to work. The point about spirits is for alcoholics the liver damage is greater in those that use spirits rather than those who medicate using beer or other lower abv. drinks even if the alcohol volume is the same. Spirits users will on average die sooner.

    I think Thai signage is excellent. You want to see no English language or just non-existent signage, try Laos or China. Well done Thailand. Your road signs and signage in general are great.

    This is what he wanted to emulate, and didn't do a bad job. Even though he wasn't born at the time.

    Why did this news story immediately become a polemic between the pro-weed and anti-weed crowd? The story has nothing to do with weed! You guys are still at it on page 4!

    Bump To say this sub-forum has died a death is the understatement of the year. This website used to be full of informative and erudite comment. Now it seems to be little more than monger central. That's a shame. Can anyone advise good online forums to discuss Thai language. Cheers Briggsy

    It is definitely shown on Google Maps and is also clearly visible on Street View. Try กะเพรา ตีพุง

    There is so much wrong on every level here, absolutely every level, I do not know where to start. The only good thing as others have pointed out is that there were no fatalities which is miraculous.

    Quiet as ever, the manager rules this place with an iron fist.

    I get confused with the terminology. A "transwoman" is a kathoey, right? p.s. How is the last paragraph at all related to the initial story???????😀

    Is Rosie O'Grady's in Soi 7 still going? I last went there in 2018, maybe, and the food was quite good.

    12.982867352442131, 100.92005755267017 Try these co-ordinates. I have been back since. Khanaa moo krorp 80 Baht. Also very good.

    Could this have been overseas Chinese police? They do operate in Pattaya.

    To whip a stranger with your belt would suggest a propensity for violence and lots of previous experience. I am sure this is absolutely a person who is familiar with violence.

    There appear to be no denial of entry reports yet. Similarly I have not read any reports of requests for additional or supporting documentation. They are likely to start issuing warnings first before denying entry, but who knows! However if you are seriously concerned, you could always pay for the safe entry service.

    @kwilco Trust me, you will not have a problem unless wishing to change very large amounts. If so, head to Super Rich in Bangkok.

    I would be faithful.

    They tried playing hard ball with the neighbours in Rom Klao. Didn't work out very well. ASEAN has a non-interference policy. Everybody is watching China's position. Thailand won't be shooting down any Myanmar government fighter aircraft soon.

    This thread is funny.

    Whole-life driving licences were no longer issued after 2003.

    What does this mean? Are you skinny?

    You would only need to dish out some Singaporean-style corporal punishment and this type of behaviour would virtually disappear overnight.
