  1. I have also thought about this as surely the exit scanners are the same as the entry scanners. I'm guessing that if it is spotted in Thailand, there is a tip off to customs at the destination airport in the hope that bigger fish can be caught if the smugglers give up names or addresses in the chain.
  2. Anyone who is familiar with risk assessments knows Personal Protective Equipment is the last form of protection and does not make the task (riding in Thailand) safe. As has been mentioned already, the dangers need to be addressed at source. Proper training, good maintenance, safe riding attitudes and proper law enforcement to name a few.
  3. I have heard stories about this and invested in a dash cam with front and rear cameras for my Xmax to be on the safe side.
  4. Mr untouchable is getting touched in areas he does not like
  5. A new proposal. Lets wait and see.
  6. Good to know they won't be able to keep up with my Xmax 300 🤣 (joking) Describing an ADV 160/350 as an adventure bike is the biggest joke though, i have the 350 in the UK and at 186kg and 29bhp, an adventure bike it most certainly is not, it's a dressed up scooter which is no more capable than my Xmax.
  7. That is my thought as well. As a typical 3 month visitor, i have only known 44 ish to the GBP, if it goes down to 42 i only lose £250 on my £5,000 transfer which i am certainly not going to lose any sleep over. Those dealing with massive amounts for retirement funds or property purchases will probably see it differently though.
  8. Shielding youths from Yabba and knife use would be my priority.
  9. I find this hard to believe, both cases would be 25kg each, she must have noticed the weight. When she got ready for the flight the next morning did she wear all the same clothes she had on the night before or did she wear a new outfit, if a new outfit, she must have put her dirty clothes in one of the bags containing 23kg of weed and somehow not noticed all her original luggage had been removed. Could possibly have put everything in a carry on bag i suppose. A small lady would really struggle to lift 25kg in each hand if you ask me, and surely they were not 25kg each when she packed them for a "short trip" to Sri Lanka. Maybe it is all lost in translation and the bags were tampered with after being checked in at the airport.
  10. Thailands financial house of cards is getting ready to fall down.
  11. It has become fashionable to blame everything on US tariffs, a way many countries can try to hide their governments inept management, wastage and greed. Many economies, including Thailands were in dire straights long before the new tariffs were mentioned.
  12. No sympathy for either of them. The risks are well known. Two young lives ruined.
  13. Health Minister Forms Panel to Examine Thaksin Medical Care Controversy With instructions to take their time finding nothing was done wrong.
