Which cities in Isaan are the most English friendly?
'English' and 'Thailand' should never be mentioned in the same sentence unless the word 'abysmal' is present also..

Informal lender hit by a car after demanding payment from borrower
Yeah...desperation for another drunken night or some frivolous purchase. Stop idolizing the poor. 99% are dumfux .. but wait....I have an even darker theory. Most Thais love slavery/serfdom In this case, debt-slavery. I owe, therefore I am. Once they manage to pay off one debt, they will take on a new one 🤦♂️

What does Zuckerberg know that we don't?
Zuck is taking a sensible precaution. Doomsday bunkers have been around since the 50s. (Cold war etc) If shtf, he hopes to sit out the worst of the fallout for a few weeks/months. After that he will probably hightail it somewhere in the southern hemisphere . In case Hawaii is not hit, he will continue life in the property. Contrary to what many ppl believe, nuclear 'holocaust' won't be the end of the world Over 90% of the nukes will hit the northern hemisphere.. that's where the belligerents are. Wind patterns and other factors will keep most of the fallout within the N.Hemisphere

Questioned and nearly denied entry at BKK
True..but you can turn back at no cost and say gbye to this rigmarole. I hear ,a neatly folded 500b item in the pport, can perform wonders. As others have said..if you have abused the visa system,avoid coming in by plane.

Irishman’s life hangs by a thread after mosquito bite in Thailand
What happens if the family refuses to pay the hospital? Are they gonna put him in hospital jail? What does Thai law says? I bet he was taken there against his will (or unconscious), like many others.. I despise private health-scare. Socialist af on this one. 😁

Thailand to move away from foreign tourism and rely more on home travellers in the latest TAT masterplan
The true soul of Thailand in display again. Any more excuses by the diehards? I've been saying for years, that tourism in Thailand happened against the wishes of the elites/govt. It was a private ,organic thing that developed gradually between farangs and enterprising Thais. (Hoteliers, prostitutes etc) In due course they will revert into a N. Korea style regime.

Drunk police chief insults foreign man at restaurant in Isaan
Never sit anywhere near Thai males who are drinking. Pretty soon the conversation will revolve around the farang. If you have your Thai Mrs along, even worse.
