Who know what may happen in TH. Could go good or could go bad very quickly. Such is the political volatility of emerging countries. What we do know is it's a sham democracy.

The rich and corrupt will never hand over control as there are too many snouts in the trough. A fresh government poses a threat to them, either in cutting them out of the gravy train, or purging them.

If there is even a chance that their power can be compromised they will find a way to rip out the roots of the threat.

For me the threat of grass-roots political turmoil is still bubbling away and the voice seems to getting louder.

Hope for the best but plan for the worst.

It's a workers market with every country trying to get external laborers. Who wants to jump through these hoops?  Seem more like obstacles,.

Another reason perhaps?

Nearly two thirds of voters believe Brexit has contributed to runaway inflation and soaring food prices

And 2/3rd of voters are right. The key word used is "contributed," not "caused."  

Food price rises are linked to increased energy prices. Refrigeration, electricity, transport and business overheads. Fertilizer costs have increased by 200% compared to the start of 2022.

The UK also has difficulty in recruiting workers for harvest and there is some increased export overheads

Inflation has a multitude of "Contributing factors". Brexit is one but not the main one. 

This is a pointless article. It tells you nothing.

Madgee shared a trail with the same enquiry

Contact MS directly to clarify. In this enquiry it was stated by the requester it was a genuine email after they contacted MS but their reply could be fake . Only MS will know.

Treat it as suspicious and a phishing email till you have contact MS directly to clarify

Note to everyone. You can use a gmail email address as an MS account user email.

This is not an email about a Gmail account, but an MS account where a Gmail address has been used to set up the MS account.

I have multiple MS accounts that do not use MS email addresses and one of them, uses a Gmail alias.

There might even be international criminals using Thailand as a base for illegal activities.

Really? 

Who would have thought that.....

I suppose the average IQ at the top of the police force went up from 7 to 9 on this amazing piece of deduction. 

Give that man a lollipop, shave his head and call him Kojak !!!

Thai home electric wiring and electric cars. That's a great idea.

I hope they increase the number of firefighter to compensate.

He said the reason he committed the horrific abuse is that his girlfriend “would not follow orders,”

I´d lock him up for a long time and force feed him Dog Poop 3 times a day (without rice of course).

providing Pita with a strong majority of 309 MPs.

Unfortunately they need 376 seats to have over half the vote so there is no majority not even a narrow one.

Welcome to the banana republic of Thailand.

I see another Myanmar coming perhaps. Depends on how much the people want the change and how much the army will protect the dictatorship.

Tough time are coming either way. Pseudo democracy, where you vote but the results are ignored is not democracy, just a dictatorship creating the illusion of democracy to keep the peoples will suppressed.

Get an emergency bag packed, check the flights outta here and let's all hope it doesn't come to that.

The story says clearly that "she was hanging around the Cannabis shop to beg for food".
Not to buy Cannabis.

• She will not be the last daughter of the leaf who will blow all her cash on drugs rather than think about going home when the cash is still there. It's is the precursor for the future that legalising MJ presents.. 

• As to her sister sending money, I´m not feeling that vibe. If my sister was stuck in Thailand and ran out of cash I would not send her $10000. I´d pay for her ticket home and book a car from where she is to the airport.  

• Sending a large sum of money to a stranded pot head in a country where MJ is legal is about as safe as asking a bar girl to look after your wallet while you go to the toilet.

• I have been so poor that I had no money for food myself. I was forced to rely on charity handouts. When you have depression you cannot think rationally nor see the way out. This seems to be a cry for help which someone should answer. The last time it was missed as I remember a young man jumped to his death at Bangkok airport

• Lets hope someone from her embassy sees this article and reaches out to get her home.  That´s exactly what they are there for.

Police arrested a violent drug addict at a condominium in Bangkok for assaulting and raping his mother

Let's hope someone hairy monsters make him their B*tch in prison and return the favor 3 or 4 times a day till they wear his hole out (and them some).

A surviving victim, Pla, revealed in an interview with the media that she and Am were friends because her husband and Am’s ex-husband were police officers.

 

The alleged serial killer borrowed money of 250,000 baht from her in September of last year.

Neither a borrower nor a lender be, for loan oft loses both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

I am often asked how I like my steak.

very very rare.

"wipe its nose and take of the hooves."

I use my Tefal Optigrill and it cooks both side top perfection in about 45 seconds leaving the juices flowing.

Dig deep and pay for the quality. cheap beef is like cheap wine or cheap coffee.

You may save a few $ but it tastes like sh*t. You don't want to be called Khii Nok.

Unveiling the dark side of sex doll collecting

Is there a light side to it?

“Don’t you think the doll looks exactly like me? It looks so realistic. Agree?”

Must be the fact they were wearing matching school uniforms.

Now beaches need to have lights, and warnings that seaweed is slippery. Jeepers! 

What next? Paint large rocks red and rake over the sand to make is smooth after kids make sand castles so people don't trip.

It's a beach, it has steps that get covered with water where seaweed grows and that makes them slippery. 

I have sympathy for the guy as no one expects to slip and break their neck. It's an accident with a tragic end that could have been avoided if he used some degree of common sense.

But surely you don't have to tell people to be careful, as walking on parts of the submerged sea wall after the tide goes out is risky. Especially in the dark.

No one in their right mind is going to pay for lights down km's of beaches and sweep the enormously concrete steps of seaweed just in case a lone someone who is less commonsensical decides to walk there. There are things called torches for just this reason.

Doesn't call for a lawsuit. And if it was the case it should be Poseidon or Neptune they should be sueing. I'm sure their pocket are bulging with sunken treasure.

Whats the exchange rate for Bahts to Doubloons I wonder?

She claims when she entered Thailand recently an Immigration Officer forgot to stamp her passport.

Use their brains. If she is in Thailand and from Holland, unless she swam the Mekong she arrived at the airport. She says recently so it's not a long term issue.

What takes 5 days to figure out? Look at the manifest for the flight she arrived on.
