We have 3 Mekong Bobtails not mentioned in the article they are a classic breed with short flat tails with a bobble on the end. Totally rule the house. The short flat tail is not detrimental to them

1. The party hired a specialist contractor to vet and provide security guards. 2. The specialist contractor is fully responsible that is what they are paid for 3. Pita Limjaroenrat never met the guy 4. The party acted quickly and decisively once they were notified 5. This man posed a threat to Pita Limjaroenrat because he could have been blackmailed into providing security information to enemies or worse could have been an assassin 6. I note that the incompetent specialist contractor who made this cock up has not been named so that no other person hires them in the future

It is not cruel to kill an animal as long as it is quick. It is cruel to make it suffer before death.

Stokes fear in the community? Why?Pure 1950's American tabloid style trash reporting

Perhaps they mean slip-on shoe.

Let's put an alternate viewpoint 1. Two allegations have been made against him. 2. Both allegations have been investigated by the police 3. In both cases the police found that no crime had been committed 4. The solicitor for the first girl has stated on her behalf that the allegations were pure rubbish. Her mother and stepfather made the allegations to the sun newspaper. 5. The sun newspaper is part of the tabloid press which uses questionable methods to get stories (as evidenced by the current phone tapping scandal) including paying for information to greedy parents 6. The sun newspaper printed a revision of its allegations stating he knew the girl when she was 17 (previously they had stated the images were paid for to a 17 year old) 7. No one knows how old she is now but she is definitely over 18 8. Sending or asking for explicit images to a lover or friend is not illegal if the sender and recipient both agree. What I see here is a tabloid newspaper creating a smear campaign against a respected presenter invading his family's privacy and domestic life. For all we know he and his wife may follow the swinger lifestyle which is not illegal and is no one's business but theirs and this 'girl' who is actually now a woman is now one of their playmates. Her parents found out and are cashing in getting money from the sun to 'expose' this lifestyle as a scandal when in the modern western world it is no such thing

Until something like this happens and it seems more likely to happen in Thailand especially in older established shopping malls which will have the same escalators that were installed when the mall was built sometimes 20 years old just like the Travelators at the airport

My opinion of Thai road construction and repair is poor. The finished product may be good but the process of construction/repair is sloppy and unsafe. Atrocious project management, stupid risk taking with both workers and road users. This section would probably have been extremely safe once it was connected to the other sections. The construction engineers failed to provide adequate support for the section during the construction phase and other people have paid the price

RIP my thoughts are with his family
