Why is it the same voice when dub into Thai language. Do they use computer generated voice ? Is that the reason why everytime the voice sound like same guy in every movie.

I’m pretty sure they will extend the amnesty. 
 

they (gov not immigration) will make announcement on 21st or 22nd about extending the amnesty.

 

i have no proof of this, only my personal view.

yeah, me too, I gather there will be huge crowd because of this short amount of time for everyone to get out.

If I am going by train is the land border open?

People with small johnnies are often seen carrying big knives.

Have you seen in the magazine(US publication)  a line of white guys in police uniforms without their underpants and a line of ordinary black guys without their underpants.

You could see the differences in the sizes.

Someone sent this picture to the magazine to say the reason for the recent police bashing black is in the photo. Envy...

I couldn't stop laughing it's a good joke. I love people who are humorous.

Oh, if you are white when walking down the street you see a black guy you say, "I am sorry I am white"- that's another good joke.

Thailand is dragging itself out of the third world. Bound to be teething problems.

At the rate things are going it will be a 3rd world country for a long long time. Because they don't have the things in place for that to happen( i.e. progress) and the government is encouraging a bad mind set not conducive to progress or learning at all.

I believe I will not be coming to Thailand anymore once the border is opened and I got out. Why? Not because I hate thailand . Just that the thais do things differently they think differently- not in line with my thinking so it's no good me hanging around is it? 60 millions thais can't be wrong it's me coming into the wrong country I must admit that's my fault.

( I often heard the sino-thais are sucking thailand dry- not even leaving breadcrumbs on the floor .)

All this while I thought they had started using bio-degradable plastic bags that disintegrate and harmless to the soil.  ???- no? nothing of this sort- just a fancy story to cheer you up a bit?

May be saw dust can be glue to make a compact disc for the cover of drinks cup.

I was working as a free lance interpreter for a Japanese Glue Company and I accompany a Japanese to interpret from Japanese to Chinese and vice-versa. The Japanese company was trying to sell glue to all these Ply-wood factories. This glue is used to glue layers of wood together to make ply-wood. Those factories making soft board(for notice board etc.,) will grind those palm trees trunk into powder and glue them together to make soft board. So I don't see why they can't make cups and covers from these cheap materials. The inside of the cup could be line with paper.

It will be bio-degradable of course- it's from palm trees. Or may be from bamboo sawdusts or wood sawdusts.

We should really stop using so much plastic.

not such foowittery. I know of a farang who was arrested and deported for painting his boundary fence. Needless to say he had been giving Immigration grief, and this was there get square. So as others have said, keep your head down and make sure you don't upset anyone. TBPH I wouldn't do any work, even what you are proposing as retirement visa clearly states "Employment Prohibited". That includes voluntary work, paid or unpaid work, and anything that takes work/employment away from a Thai.

For they knew that you would even take away the breadcrumbs that fell to ground. They knew your next move so they are taking preemptive moves.

Just like Trump wanting to take preempt nuclear strike against China. lol

What part of the borders are closed do these people not understand?????

It's not that they don't understand, they are hoping against hope that somewhere the border is not closed properly, they could just sneak pass it after paying a little mooney to the border guards. Have you seen the accommodations of the border guards in south of Thailand? Miserable looking they live there with their families you know.

I really would like to give them a little tipping if not for those cameras inside the buildings. My sympathy is always for those who work for peanuts.

No border runs.  Fly, extend visa or hope for amnesty extension. 

Yes, JacksSmirkingvengeance, no border runs. I just went today(11 Sept-Friday) to Hua lamphong train station, behind the counter the Thai lady with a sour face like a wrinkle lemon said, "Border close train only go Hat yai".  At once my face which is ugly became more ugly from what she said and it also leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

I immediately felt that I have been in this make believe kingdom for far too long and now woken up to reality- the ultimate reality so to speak. (fookit)

"The Tyranny of the English Language." I hope Thai government will introduce French language in Primary school. Well, sort of pilot project.

The English Language has killed off many other languages in many 3rd world countries, English is adopted wholesale- they let their dialect or mother tongue died- speaking only English at home.

 The French language should not be deny of their rightful place in the sun.

Anyone disagree?

The Tyranny of the English Language is a small book I am going to write. It will trace the English language from a humble dialect on the Thames river to its present day. How it has a stranglehold on the world today. My books( translated version ) when put on sale in Paris will sell like hot cakes. Well, the french with their narcissistic love of their language will be intrigued by the title of the book. "La Tyrannie de la langue Anglais".

Is this a country where people snoop on you and report on you?

If this is true then these people really haven't got better things to do.

They wouldn't spend their time to improve themselves so they may have some financial gains. Instead they spy on you, report you and take delight in seeing you get into trouble?

Disgusting. Just small minded, useless people.

Let me just ask a simple question. If I find my neighbor spying on me, would it be ok if I pull my short so low that my buttocks are showing. Not exactly "Moon" them(that's the slang for display of buttocks), but mind you, I am within my private residence so you cannot say I expose myself can you?

So if I grow my own foods it is considered working is it? Just too many wavkers in this country.

In France children in primary school ( around 8 years old) are taught the dangers of eating sweet stuffs.

The teacher took 2 tin of biscuits- one with low sugar and one with high sugar for the kids to taste and advise them.

What i am going to say may not be correct or misleading I am not sure. So please hold your shotgun don't blast it point blank as I have said beforehand I may not be correct.

There are many countries I would not even think of riding a motorbike. Thailand being one of them. In Asia I would ride a motor bike only in Japan, because I had lived there long enough to know how they drive there.

What I don't understand is why ride a bike in Thailand?.

In Japan it is very safe to ride a bike, I don't know about Korea because I never live there before.

I met a German who works for the BMW in China, he said to me, "The most uncivilized driving you can find is in China". Again I never live there so I am not sure if that is true.

Why take the risk, is it worth it? Of course the argument goes it is an accident everywhere you go there are accidents. Accidents and reckless careless driving are not the same thing I supposed.

I will ride a motorbike in Australia, New Zealand, Japan and England. I lived there long enough to know the ways people drive there, my risk is a lot more lower than many Asian countries.

Can you not rent a car? Or perhaps arrange transport during certain hours of your need?

A friend of mine said his father forbid him to ride a bike when he was a teenager. A wise father who saved his son life or limbs or becoming paraplegic.

I was a male nurse in a hospital for spinal injuries. I saw a lot of sufferings  among mountain climbers and motorcyclists.

You need to work in spinal injuries unit to know it is just not worth it.

I think the British government should put notice in the subway that says- If you love your kids, tell them to promise you they wouldn't ride a bike while on holidays in Thailand.

I don't think you can put things back on the shelves without moving your arms, which would make the items under your armpits drop to the floor, unless it's intentional.

 

 

Oh, no, it's not intentional. I often go about in a dreamy state, like going to the car park where I park the car yesterday but today I parked the car near to the car park but not in the car park.

I went to the car park and couldn't find my car then later realized I didn't park there.

I believe 7/11 lost a couple of things in a year because I walked out without paying and not even remember that. well, God makes me do that didn't he?

Are properties really that cheap in Thailand that you are willing to pay good money and use a Thailand citizen name to buy a house or whatever.

It seems ridiculous to me. I will never do that. If it's not in my name legally it doesn't belongs to me and in the court of law I have no say.

I would rather buy properties in Singapore or Malaysia where you use your own good name in the purchase & sales contract. If you are careful and shrew in Malaysia properties often appreciate and you could even make some money . All contract and legal document in English language.

Thailand is just for fun, you live here you rent and you leave when you have enough. As for investment, Singapore and Malaysia are top choice.

Can't wait to stand in a queue where a guy pays his chewing gum with a foreign credit card

There was a time I put something under my arm pit and forgot about it and when I saw the long queue I put the things I was holding in my hand back on the shelf but forgot the one under my armpit. I walked out and later

discovered I had walked off with stuff without paying.

Is that consider theft? i didn't go back to return the stuff because I was afraid language would bangle my good kind heart.

She was forced by you to have sex. Sounds like rape to me.

Yes, but her action said she wanted sex, that is: taking off all her clothings including the knickers.

Really, cock teasers should be punished by the law.

Is it true that if you are a training pilot for airlines before you sign up for the training they want you to sign a legal binding document agreement that you will not be allowed to ride a motor-bike. If you break the agreement they will terminate your training.

They don't want to waste lots of money training you as a pilot then you die in a motor bike accident.

I was told about this. Anyone knows.

thai superstition ... if a crow visits your house... someone will die

if you catch a crow then secretly left it (tied up of course) in someone's house while you pay them a visit does that work,  someone in that house will die?

May be the occupant of the house became so agitated or worried that he or she died of heart attack.

Isn't rape an act of aggression and hostility rather than lust? 

I may be wrong - some are called rapes because the victims after voluntarily took off all their clothes later said they didn't want sex, later made a police report of rape.

From my personal experience many years ago my lady friend was with me in the hotel we were completely naked enjoying the foreplay and when I try to penetrate she said no, she didn't want sex. So she cried after she was forced by me to have sex.

I then told her if you go home now and your mum asked you why you were crying and she wanted to make a police report then I would be put in prison for a long long time.

I was lucky because she called her mum and told her she would be sleeping in her sister house that night and wouldn't be going home.

I learned my lesson and never repeat such stupid act because don't forget the court judge has not sympathy whatsoever for you. Your whole life would be ruined completely.
