Oh goody, a Pattaya bashing thread. AN isn't fun without one of these.

No one has asked whether or not the police officer was sober. How many time shave we seen the stories where the cop shoots up a bar or restaurant because he is annoyed or angry?

How do police officers in Sweden, Australia, Canada, Japan et al manage to do it?

Not at all. The question was asked as to where the wats obtain their funds. As most of the forum whingers are not conversant in the Thai language, they will find it easier to speak with another foreigner. They can ask the ones who give money to the wats, by way of purchases of the loud amulets about the circumstances of their purchases. I cannot answer on this one because I do not give money to any wats. There is a reason why some farangs will spend 10,000-50,000-100,000 on an amulet. Once they share their motive with you, you will be enlightened and can go back to complaining.

Some people have families. Others have an attachment to their native lands. Others have family plots. Going home provides comfort to many because they hold happy memories of their childhood and might wish to be buried in proximity to their families.

No. Norway, Sweden, Canada, Australia and many others are all advanced and economically developed nations. There is a rule of law, and a national culture of fairness. Yes, there are pollution issues in each of the countries, but they have environmental protection laws and and enforce those laws. These states do not harvest the orans of marginalized humans so that the wealthy and powerful can have them. There is no state sanctioned system of slave labour , nor do these nations use their military to invade and enslave or to take the land of others.

OK. And you think an AI generated political spot is the source of truth? The robot speaks and you follow? Sadiq Khan has been elected by a majority of voters in London. He has a mandate to represent. The fact that the man is sometimes biased in favour of muslims and often supports causes that are associated with the interests of specific ethnic groups is a reflection of his voter base. However, the fact is that East Asians and Arabs only account for 15% of the London population. This means that a significant number of "English" people are voting for him. It's the left wing segment of the UK population that supports him: The same people who support his transportation policies, who have refused to act against unauthorized migrants and bogus refugees, and who refuse to rein in social services spending. The nation of chronic complainers is its own enemy.

She will never get it. Perhaps a commutation of sentence for compassionate reasons. She is 62 years old and was sentenced to 20 years + 5 years supervision + $750,000 fine. Trump might cut a deal that sees her released as he leaves office. She knows where some of the skeletons are hidden.

Ask the farangs who purchase the large ostentatious gold amulets and parade about with them on.

Is he going to be charged with animal cruelty, and if convicted get deported?

Do you say Thailand is fallen after every violent crime in Thailand when some westerner is implicated?

The complaints are listened to. Unfortunately, when solutions are proposed, the complainers complain about the solutions. The UK is a nation of chronic complainers, whingers and malcontents. For example, people complain about the number of fake refugees. When governments attempted to deport them, there were people who would protest and block the deportations. Deportation flights were blocked by busy bodies who would protest the removal of violent criminals. When the government tried to rein in public spending on social benefits, the citizens went out in the hundreds of thousands to protest. Labor's political agenda was not a secret, but now people are upset that the party they voted in reflects the Labor party members social policies.

Foolish, desperate measure that will not address the low voter turnout of young people.

You went to quite a lot of effort to present my comments OUT OF CONTEXT. My comment was specific to the claims of Virginia Giuffre who was able to exploit events to her own financial benefit. Her life years later and her statements prior to her suicide indicate that she was dishonest and not truthful. She may have certainly believe that the events occurred, but her fantasies and delusions does not mean the events occurred as described.

Do you have any data to back that up? I get your point and I do avoid locations with high numbers of Indians, but the Indians are spending. The just have different spending patterns than westerners. They may not spend on alcohol, but they spend on appliance and electronics purchases.
