excluding "unregistered" vehicles, there are 1 million+ more automobiless on the road today than there were 5 years ago. Add to this the millions of motorbikes, and the estimated770,000 trucks and pickups, the answer is obvious. More vehicles in a country where the roads have the same capacity as before. Add to that, multiple projects that disrupt traffic flow.

You do not know if she is mentally ill. You asume that she is. You do not know that "they" put her on puberty blockers at a very young age. You assumed that. She was placed on hormones at the age of 16. This was only allowed once she had completed screening and therapy. The process was reversible. She reconfirmed her intent at the age of 20. Did you review her medical file, and were aware of her endocrinology and general physiology prior to the process? If you did not, who then are you to judge a decision taken by the patient, and her attending physicians and psychologists? And yes, one has to be uneducated to not understand that each patient is unique and presents with their own characteristics.

You refuse to accept scientific fact. Whether it is because you are intellectually limited, uneducated or too biased to consider the science, you dismiss the biological circumstances and instead look to belittle these people who did not choose to live in a world of hate. Have you ever spoken to one of these kids and made an effort to understand their situation?

People want to survive. Most often, their personal characteristics, or circumstances deliver this scenario. It's like asking why people in a famine zone accept starvation. Usually, they have no option and cannot escape.

Really? What happens with the person who is born with a penis, but has an ovary or ovaries? Or the person born with undescended indeterminate testicles and only a urethra opening? What is your knowledge of endocrinology and the role of sex hormones in development? A penis in itself is not a reliable basis for assigning a gender. It is obvious you are ignorant on the subject matter and just have a personal bias. Come back and lecture me when you have knowledge of Vivian's medical file, hormone structure and brain development.

Try Issan and Northern Thailand. I find the Issan/Laotian people to be genuinely kind hearted, friendly and decent compared to urban Thais and southerners. Even The areas up in Loei, Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai were friendly in their own way. Urban Thais are as miserable as any other urban people. Miserable from the stress of city life. Traffic, air pollution, the cost of everything in a city makes it hard to be happy. As my friend from Bangkok says, at least when he goes home to visit the grandparents in rural Ubon, if he ever gets hungry, there is always a banana or a papaya on a tree and people will always share food.

Read what I wrote. It is self evident.

She is a she by medical definition. Have you reviewed her medical dossier? On what basis are you to determine her gender? You have no knowledge of what her biochemistry was, nor did you undertake a physical examination. What is your expertise in endocrinology and human physiology? You are imposing your own bias on a person with absolutely no knowledge of what her physical state was. How do you know she was not born with female organs, but presented as an indeterminate male? Who are you to declare whether or not her genetic code was exclusively male or expressed a partial female code ? Seems to me you are an elderly white male who has been left behind and is now flailing against subject matters you cannot comprehend because you are uneducated.

Somewhere beyond the fire haze cloud ?

There are no polar bears in Antartica. Nor could they even survive off the coast of Thailand as they primarily rely on seals for their diet and there are no seals near Thailand.

Vivian Wilson is a "she". You are being ignorant when you refer to her "gay" side. She is not gay. Transgender people are not typically gay. They are termed transgender because they are of a gender different than how they presented or were identified as, at birth. You have no idea as to her physiology or biochemistry before she transitioned. For all you know, her internal organs and hormone production may have very well been indeterminate or structured more to female, but she was identified as male at birth. Yo are assuming without any evidence to support such nasty assumptions.

Are you sure that they exist? Standard practice in Yemen is to lie. How else do you propose to have Yemen stop attacking and hijacking ships? They were doing this long before Israel, extorting money from shipping companies.

The locals reflect the local people. Replacing them will change nothing. This is Thai culture. Their lives need to get much worse for here to be change.

The US did so for its own financial interest. It was not altruism. In order to project its influence around the world, the USA needs foreign military bases. Go ahead and close the bases in Turkey, UK and Germany.Russia and China will fill the void.

Not supported by actual facts. The age discrepancies were intentionally keyed because of missing DOBs. Who are these illegal aliens that you refer to? DOGE isn't auditing the social security system. It doesn't have the capability. Also, no accountants are involved.How do 19 year old software coders know or understand financial accounting?

I used to, whem I was young. 15,000 is chump change in some clubs. Japanese and Russians can spend 50,000 without blinking. Good meal and wine is easily 5,000-10,000. Or just a good bottle of wine retails for 2500-5000 baht. The markup in a club can be 100%. Add tips and you can easily hit 15,000.

It came at a cost to others. The innovations at all the companies are not his creation.He merely purchased the companies.

Nope. Most likely an absent and dysfunctional father.

I don't disagree with you. Rather, I am stating the obvious as to why a parent would want him kept away. The failure to intercede confirms the status of creepy. Therefore, expecting any semblance of decency from the intentionally shocking writer should not surprise.

Maybe trying to find where Greenland is and why that Indian lady is representing the USA. I bet others are wondering why Nikki Haley is going to Greenland. 😋

It would be an act of war. Greenland is still a part of Denmark which is part of the EU. The Americans have not learnt their lesson from Afghanistan, Iraq or Vietnam. The Greenlanders are at home in the ice and snow. Bubba from Alabama Tyrell from Mississippi are not.

It was mostly Medicare and Medicaid fraud. Taxpayers are losing more than $100 billion a year to Medicare and Medicaid fraud, according to estimates from the National Health Care Anti-Fraud Association. It comes from companies who invoice for undelivered goods and services, physicians charging for nonexistant services, patients scamming the system for drugs which are resold for profit, pharmaceutical wholesalers and distributors overcharging, and hospital systems over charging. It was a fraud that was a direct result of neglect. The Inspector General was only allowed 450 inspectors to oversee $1.6+ Trillion in spending on 150 million beneficiaries. There were an inadequate number of inspectors. People convicted of fraud rarely went to jail and the crimes were rife with repeat offenders. The solution from Doge was to fire the inspector general and to lay off inspectors. How then do they intend to stop the fraud?

Until they succumb to their lung disease. The carnage is rather grim. In 2023 The Bangkok Post carried are depressing report during the smog crisis of January. Just for that event, More than 31,000 people in Bangkok and 1.4 million nationwide have developed respiratory diseases due to haze pollution since Jan 1, according to the Public Health Ministry. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2525291/air-pollution-triggers-respiratory-diseases. Data from public hospitals and the BMA's Medical Service Department showed there are 31,695 patients in Bangkok, and 1,449,716 patients nationwide, who have developed symptoms caused by air pollution. "Of them, 2,252 people were diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, 8,692 people with eczema, 8,309 with stroke, 4,800 with conjunctivitis or pink eye, 1,770 with pneumonia, 1,107 with bronchitis, 1,830 with pharyngitis, 672 with nasal cryotherapy, 129 with asthma, 114 with influenza, 89 with ischaemic heart disease and 1,877 with lung cancer," Dr Pathomporn said. Add a few more million victims since 2023 and we can see just how dire the crisis is.

Thanks for posting this. I am sitting here watching the Asian Cup Thailand v Sri Lanka with my friends and I played this. The Thai response: Always the same Pattaya-Phuket, Phuket -Pattaya, always a car crash, always a fight. What do the tourists see in those places? I suppose we can expect the announcement of a "crackdown". That's the usual response for a week or so, then it is back to the same old.

Were you expecting more? It is understandable why a mother would want her/him/them out of the pool while her kids were there.
