  1. Russians are the biggest fans and supporters of Trump. You must all fall in line and express your love and admiration for the minions of Putin.
  2. No they do not always come back. More people stay away. All it takes is one rip off. Asean Now's list of "members" is populated by people who have not come back. A large number left for financial reasons. Covid was the turning point.
  3. There is no cure. And the potential treatments rely on gene therapy using mRNA technology, which you oppose. And no , herpes does not strenghtn the imunity system. On the contrary, the reoccurence of variants such as herpes zoster occurs when the immune system is stressed.
  4. The lights are not that good in very dark urban places. In the countryside, they can be helpful. In the urban setting, not as much.
  5. No. Money launderers are good at adapting. It goes with the job.
  6. Fair enough. Some people may have been rubbed the wrong way by a kathoey in the past. I have seen how Thais handle this and they can be rather mean to the street people. It is very bad form to sit on someone's motorbike and is dealt with accordingly.
  7. Anyone who disagrees with you is wrong. Telegram is not a reliable source of information. Yes, some news media have stories, and they are transparent in identifying their information source. Until the information is corroborated by Ukraine and more relaible sources such as defense analysts in the UK or USA or EU, it is prudent to take the articles under caution. Withdrawals in an active combat zone are never easy and come with casualties. No surprise. Wheteher or not the casualties are devastating is something else.
  8. So? What do you think Legal Liability insurance is? It is for LEGAL LIABILITY arising from the event. The information provided is correct. It is not for VOLUNTARY payment. If you wanted compensation, it was your obligation to bring a civil suit. The insurer has a duty to defend. If the court says the driver is legally liable, the insurer would have paid on the insured's behalf. The same rules apply on your home country motor liability (except in jurisdictions where there is a no fault law).
  9. Maybe you don't mind having some hooker oozing sweat and other bodily fluids on your motorbike seat, but some of us do. Sitting on the bike is also a good cover for picking the motorkey entry and stealing the motorbike. Motorbike thefts are astronomical in Thailand.
  10. How so? How would 30 days have prevented the. kathoey from loitering? Do you know the visa status of the foreigner?
  11. The exclusion is in respect to the insured. Legal liability for injury to third parties is typically covered.
  12. Then you are naive. A person can say they have insurance, but without evidence of a policy number, or contact number or insurer name, the coverage cannot be confirmed.
  13. The information in the article is merely repeating what is on Telegram, a notoriously unreliable source of information. For all you know it is Russian disinformation.
  14. The man would probably be manageable if he was medicated. Unfortunately, you can't force people to take their anti psychotic medications. He is most likely in Thailand because of his Thai marriage and legal status on his visa. In order to deport, his visa must be revoked. Ideally, he should be sent back to Germany where there is a much better psychiatric care system in place. AT worse, he ends up on the street in an east german city where he will fit in with the locals.
  15. Very shortsighted move and it will effectively discourage the exact socio economic groups the country wanted. The option of a 60 day visa with an option to extend another 30 days was ideal for snowbirds. It brought in older and wealthier people who did not want the hassle of a visa hassle. The people who were relying on this visa were the western visitors, particularly retirees and Nordics. The 60 day visa is not the reason there are problems with visitors. The overstayers will overstay on 30 day visas and the troublemakers will still make trouble. There is no link between the 60 day visas and illegal business operations. The illegal operations are carried out by long stay foreigners. Alot of people on 60 day visas did not stay the full 60 days. Instead they were opting for 31-45 days and the 60 day option made their lives easier. The takeaway is that this is collective punishment because the Thais do not want to upset the Russians and Chinese. At the very least, offer the 60 day visa through the electronic portal without the lengthy paperwork and documentation process.
  16. No the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines that had been in the pipeline. However, as you are fishing for some praise for President Trump, he gets it on this. He listened to his daughter Ivanka and son in law Jared, and the scientists and made sure the vaccines could be produced in the USA. Unfortunately, the cuts in vaccine research are going to make a similar response in the future difficult. Don't forget the contributions that came from Canada and the EU.
  17. Sweden has stated that its initial managment of the pandemic, especially the reliance on "herd immunity" was inappropriate. It adopted a more conservative management approach. The end result is that Sweden has one of the highest Covid19 vaccination rates in Europe. East European countries which have historically been resistant to vaccine use and where conspiracy claims found fertile ground have the lowest rate of. Covid 19 vaccination. It should not be a surprise that countries with poor national health like Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, and Russia have low vaccination rates.
  18. And once again the uneducated champions of an mRNA conspiracy ignore the reality that the Covid mRNA vaccines were a success. The recorded adverse reaction events do not support any conclusion other that they are safe.
  19. There is no data that shows "all the adverse events and poor efficacy". Look, I get it that you are against vaccinations and have seized upon mRNA technology as a conspiracy, so just say that and not toss out false claims. mRNA technology has been saving lives for over a decade, and there are thousands of cancer patients grateful for the advances. The reason why the scientists are. stripping references to mRNA is because of the incompetent corrupt man who is now Secretary of Health and who is opposed to vaccines. Anyone associated with mRNA will be discriminated against.
  20. how do you know? were you there? Did you see the lead up?
  21. ok. Maybe you should let Elon know, Rupert too.
  22. In case yoou missed it, Reform is imploding. There is a nasty feud playing out. Elon Musk is backing MP Rupert Lowe to take over Reform.
  23. Nothing says stereotype like old white men ogling photoshopped images of asian women.
  24. Russia has threatening European countries ever since Putin came to power. Russia has attacked its neighbors and been directly implicated in regional wars. Russia has intentionally supported brutal dictators in Africa.' Russia kept Asad in power and participated in the deaths of 600,000 Syrians and the deplacement of millions of Syrians. Russia has supported and armed North Korea, and Iran Russia has been shown to have actively interfered in western nation elections. Russia has sabotaged internet and telecomminications sea cables. Russia sends nucklear armed bombers into the air near the borders of Canada and the USA. China has not been doing the above. China has its faults, but they are not threatening to attack western nations. China provides many of the consumer products used by the free world. China is a leader in sustainable solar energy. Russia is one of the world's worst polluters with its leaking oil pipelines. China sends foreign students while Russia sends covert assassins.
  25. No need to get excited. This is an OPEN 3 month poll, where people, or bots could vote as many times as they want. It is neither scientific nor reliable in its methodology. It is regionally biased. Don't be fooled. How can Philippines, Vietnam or Garuda airlines be selected as a top airline?Notice how EVA, ANA are not mentioned? These 3 airlines rate consistently ahead ofthe other 3 mentioned. Look at the airports. Bali? Seriously? Jakarta? The frequent flyer programs called the best are often cited as the worst in other worldwide surveys.
