    Last year during Songkran festivities we were having lunch at friends house and the traffic police friend of family on duty was there. He was drunk and showing off his gun to the crowd. Later he left on his bike back to work. Now you see why meetings, laws etc hasn’t worked.

    I don’t think you understand the power of advertising. It will certainly encourage kids to start drinking watching their favorite celebrities endorsing it.

    Any interference from you that has the potential to adversely affect the family members either financially or relationship wise will come back and bite you in the back side. You’re not on the same level as the family members so the expectation is you stay out of family decisions and will only be asked to get involved if you can contribute financially to resolve issues.

    You can’t switch work permits. Your work permit is tied to your current employer and will be gone. You won’t be able to get a work permit with your wife’s company due to lack of sufficient Thai workers. Also the type of work you’d want to do at your wife’s company needs to satisfy work permit requirements.

    With no road safety enforcement I can imagine guys who now pretending to be racing drivers will mimic F1 racers causing even more deaths and misery on the roads. Also wondering how PM2.5 will affect F1 cars performance.

    You missed the point. There’s a difference between asylum seekers persecuted back home and criminals/economic refugee opportunists by-passing the proper immigration channel.

    Two against one then call more for back up with make shift weapons. Real men are some Asians.

    Don’t you wish all life choices were like this? Ok but must choose, right? Still looking….

    Yeah that too. Need to recoup the money they’d borrowed from a friend for this purpose.

    Is that what they call it now “selling candy”?

    Mr Antony is smartest of the four carrying only 29kg rather than 34. He should get a lesser sentence. Or perhaps 5kg mysteriously disappeared from the 34kg he was supposed to have had.

    Where are the stats regarding high power bikes causing more accidents than small bikes. My gutfeel says the other way around makes more sense. The novice or someone with no riding background is more likely to rent a small bike for fun and new experiences.

    When non-Thais are involved swift action, when Thais are involved…

    Government workers including police are lowly paid. This drives the urge to engage in corruption. Majority of Thais don’t pay tax so government revenue is low. So the root cause is the system of government.

    You guys missing the point. Yes on a scale where one extreme is murder, she should consider herself luckier.

    Don’t forget countless bar girls to distract the enemy allowing the sub to destroy the pacific fleet. Of course subject to installation of the engine.

    We live off Rama2. In fact construction work similar to the accident site here is going on in front of our village. When will it happen in our area is what the locals are saying. At least you’ll have your AN reporter on site when it happens.

    The PM got a good deal she thought. Two pandas for hand-full of refugees. I bet she was proud of it until international community backlash.

    How dare they put them in “stable condition”. After what they’ve been through one would think they’d deserve more than hay and water.

    I think locals with large bank accounts can enter. Also, you’d expect that rules will be bent that will allow some locals to sneak in. In any case resistance from illegal gambling hubs that are run by government officials will slow or even stop the progress. One reason Thai lottery has not changed much despite efforts to modernize and attempts to reduce corruption.

    Those locations are already full of tourists. If the intention is to increase tourism broadly across the country how about other locations. On a related matter, say hello to more misery among Thai families with short-fused males whom after losing all their money will become more violent at home.

    Good on you mate. I do the same plus when driving if someone wants to push in without signaling I don’t let them in.

    You say your dad lives in Udon. I’m sure he’ll advise you on how to handle this. The fact that you’re asking questions is a good sign.
  24. AustinRacing
    The xenophobia on display. Repeatedly saying “Falang”. What difference does it make if they are or not. It’s about foolish behavior by a driver.

    She’s pissed off that she won’t get much of the ill-gotten wealth.
