    I know of at least two cases the DSI were investigating that mysteriously went away… after this guy's departure! Seems very much like business as usual.

    Get back to me when the street protests begin.

    A lot of them are capable of exploding in this manner and exhibiting extreme violence when face or money is lost.
  4. Mr Meeseeks
    Calling the Police is most often a fruitless exercise.

    'Mental Health Issues' Seems to be a common excuse for bad and irresponsible behaviour here.
  6. Mr Meeseeks
    I think you have answered your own question there.
  7. Mr Meeseeks
    Evidently not though. He's back and running things and nobody seems to care.
  8. Mr Meeseeks
    It is what it is.

    Most of the rescue services in Thailand are all volunteers (not sure about arrangements at the airports), and started as Thai-Chinese Buddhist Organisations. Examples include the Por Tek Tung in Bangkok and Sawang Boriboon in Pattaya. That explains the use of Chinese script on their logos etc.

    Thank Buddha! Now bring Yingluck back immediately.

    I have been on some hairy flights in my time, especially when I was in the Army... Only a couple of times on big civilian airliners, though, it certainly isn't a pleasant experience.

    There are no weight restrictions to do a BOSIET, apparently. When I did mine in Thailand, they passed (fit) guys that could not get out of the helicopter without assistance. When I did it in the UK years ago, all the people that could not do it failed the course. OPITO courses apparently, but double standards seem to be applied. 🤷‍♂️

    These are everywhere in downtown KL, Malaysia, and I use them all the time.
  14. Mr Meeseeks
    As I have explained before, they all are, to varying degrees.

    A common affliction throughout the region it would seem.
  16. Mr Meeseeks
    He doesn't think he can, he knows he can. His Chinese gangster clan is firmly back in control, and there's nothing anyone else can do about it.

    Need to know basis only. The puppet does not need to know while shopping in Milan.

    He's the son of Kamnan Poh, aka the Godfather of Chonburi, and part of the mafia family that run Chonburi province.

    This visa is about attracting skilled professionals and having them stay longer term. Most retirees and married men tend to be older and don't contribute much except bringing in funds to live on, so no incentive to give longer visas. They don't need or want to attract more of these types. Really, we should be thankful that they still allow relatively hassle-free stay for these types of foreigners.

    Always does when money is involved.
  21. Mr Meeseeks
    Also, expect a lot more of this divisive nonsense now that Thaksin is back running things.
  22. Mr Meeseeks
    Correct. You cannot trust anything in this country when it comes to business and money. I include other farangs in that as well. I have been extremely lucky, and it is possible to do well with hard work, but that is only if you go in with the above rule in your head at all times.
  23. Mr Meeseeks
    Licensing in Thailand is most often just a complete nonsense.
  24. Mr Meeseeks
    How many to change a lightbulb? 🤣
  25. Mr Meeseeks
    Just as safe as dropping kids off at a place run by Thais imo.
