Mr Meeseeks

It is not a harrier where pilot skills matter. These things are fly-by-wire now. You are attempting to create a narrative that the Thais want these things for something other than simply to enrich those involved in procurement and subsequent services to enrich themselves. The majority of us here know better.

So many things are blatantly obvious to anyone with a brain but apparently not the Thai government. Too busy being ferried around in motorcades and spending taxpayers' money on their lifestyles to care.

With no weapons systems? ????

Correct, the Su-30's the Viets fly have weapons systems, the F35's the Thais want to buy do not.

It's all about the money. They don't need to be effective.

Utapao is going to be Thailand's second airport after Suvarnabhumi, they are planning to spend billions upgrading it to handle 60 million passengers per year. Upgrades to be done in phases over a 20 year period. All part of the grand EEC plan.

The Vietnamese have a much larger standing army, they are the regional military power, not Thailand, but this is often overlooked. They are used to fighting too, most recently against French, China, USA etc. but they have a long history of martial prowess.

The land of no responsibility.

If I had to take an educated guess I would say it is about the money and the Thais lack of understanding and empathy of the invasion in Ukraine. If you talk to any Thai about it they just stare blankly at you. They have no understanding of real hardship, struggle or conflict here.

I see the photo in the OP and I just think to myself, "how?" ????

We bother about silly things like safety, morals, ethics, trust and obligations... silly farangs.

Incredible statistic, but not surprising given the absurdly high levels of stupidity I witness daily on the roads here. The majority simply should not be allowed to drive or ride a bike.

They will not learn, downright refuse to. Most of them think they know it all already. ????‍♂️

Last company I worked for before going it alone was illegally owned by a New Zealander. Was under investigation by the DSI at one point too, one of the many reasons I left the company. Bent as a nine-bob note he was.

Good effort, but won't break any records.

To be sure, to be sure.

Only applies to Chinese.

Some stop, but not the majority. Nonsense.

It would have pretty much happened already without mafia, sorry, government interference.

Good suggestions I will keep them both bookmarked in case of need in future, thanks.

Did only Irish steal bread or were other nationalities involved?

They better not build it on the land that i own on the moon. I will definitely be seeking compensation if that is the case, I have a certificate of ownership as proof!!

From their website: "Siam Seeds are the official distributors for Fastbuds, Kickflip Genetics, Mephisto Genetics, Exotic Genetix and Hypno Seeds." All their seeds are fresh and come in the original breeders packs. You can check the authenticity on the Fastbuds packs through the Fastbuds website. 100% genuine. Even the free seeds they gave me were in original sealed packaging. Ironic as the Fastbuds seeds I ordered from Attitude Seedbank (my first order on @BritManToo recommendation) came in unmarked tubes and jiffy bags even though I specified no stealth shipping... all the rest of my orders from Attitude have come in the breeders packs however. I have a 100% germination rate from Siam Seeds, which is not the case with Attitude. In particular the free seeds Attitude give out I suspect are old stock and often fail to germinate.

So the 17,000thb bribe I paid to Samut Prakarn immigration to process a Non-B visa extension was a figment of my imagination? You've been rumbled you slimy little inadequate coward.
