  1. Puts to bed the myth that the Yellow Shirts were not armed or violent. These were the original thugs that showed the reds how to get the job done, costing the country billions in lost revenue due to the airport takeovers and almost caused a war with Cambodia.
  2. Normal in Thailand, they insist on proof of higher education for everything. A consequence of rote learning and a failed education system; they cannot understand how someone can be self-educated and skilled without being told by a phu yai what to think.
  3. The Elite program is a boondoggle to keep civil servants in rounds of golf and a pension. Nothing more.
  4. I don't have to imagine it been in many taxis through that intersection.
  5. Alex Albon's Mum is a convicted fraudster. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-suffolk-23877323 They just can't help themselves can they?
  6. Born in England, grew up in England, educated in England, got all his chances at motor racing in England. Races for Thailand. Ungrateful wretch.
  7. Thailand was part of the Japanese Empire and an axis power in WWII. Under the fascist dictator Phibun, Thailand declared war on the US and UK and militarily annexed territories in neighbouring countries including Laos and Cambodia.
  8. Maybe if the Thai people experienced real hardship they would effect a more positive change in their leadership.
  9. Thailand used to to be the most dangerous tourism destination for Western tourists for a while in the late 90's to the mid to late 00's. There was even a book about it, which was banned in Thailand. Thailand ‘among top 20 most dangerous countries’ to visit https://www.nationthailand.com/in-focus/30317678 Thailand 'one of the most dangerous tourist destinations on Earth': Expat investigation lifts lid on dark side of the Land of Smiles https://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-2833369/Thailand-one-dangerous-tourist-destinations-Earth-Ex-pat-investigation-lifts-lid-dark-Land-Smiles.html Thailand ‘the most dangerous country in the world to visit’ https://www.thecable.ng/thailand-dangerous-country-world-visit Have fun with those, there are hundreds more with similar content going back to the mid 90's.
  10. Just slow down through the overhead gantries with the big screens and the two cantilevers at the trucking weigh stations. The screens that show your speed for each lane don't actually have cameras. There's also a sneaky bunch of cameras located on the first pedestrian footbridge on the way into Bangkok from Pattaya. You're welcome.
  11. I rarely speed on the M7 these days unless I get some idiot tailgaiting then I get rid of them at the first opportunity. Normally I am driving at the speed of the flow of the traffic if it is busy or at 120kph on the cruise control so no danger of a speeding fine.
  12. I had a slow puncture in the driver's side rear tyre last week. It was due to a nail or screw in the tread. Went to Cockpit in Laem Chabang and they fixed it for 450thb in about 20 minutes. They visually inspected all the other tyres at the same time. Excellent service and highly recommended.
  13. Should they also consider banning the Moto GP, as that surely incentivizes some of these youths to go and race their motorcycles? ????
  14. His old mate Suthep has just come out of hiding to ready the protestors and create instability should, as predicted, Pheu Thai win a majority. I'm sure there will be many shenanigans in the meantime. Plenty of time to hand out political bans, offer 'incentives' and create a situation where they can appear to 'win' legitimately.
