Perhaps they could invite Syria, N. Korea, and Myanmar also?

...... And for resale in Pattaya.

For certain this trip is being paid by the taxpayer. Most Thai's enjoy travel as long as they don't have to pay for it, especially government officials. Perk of being totally corrupt and soulless.

Probably for the same reason there were no negotians before Russia invaded Crimea in 2014. Much easier not to telegraph that you're going to invade a particular country.

Clueless ranter.

Probably have a proper toilet and flat screen tv, can't blame you. Nice of him to offer though.

Full pensions, full insurance, and as you mentioned they've likely got millions of ill gotten money stashed away. It pays to be a government employee in Thailand!

Couldn't you just meditate at a nice resort on the beach? .... Or are you just looking for free accomodation.

Simply legalize gambling. Put some nice casino's in Issan. It'll give tourist a reason to visit.

Immigration and all it entails sucks.

I like those steamed peanuts. Anyway's, enjoy your weekend! Tons of rain in our area of Sakon Nakhon.

Another nutcase.

Definitely don't want Russia taking control of the "breadbasket" of Europe. Try to wrap your head around that and not persuaded by idiot Right Wing nutcases.

I can't imagine a Thai cop bothering to do anything (regarding enforcement) physical after the sun sets if it doesn't include a bribe.

Crazy! We've grown up to 3 crops. I live in the North East. If you've got access to water and the right seeds you will be able to grow more than one crop. They certainly do it in the North East. Perhaps your confused between watermelon crops and/or sugarcane and rice? Anyways, no arguments. It would be interesting why they don't in your area. Perhaps they don't have retention ponds?

Nonsense. Thais can and do plant up to three crops a year, we do. First crop covers fertalizer, seed, fuel, etc. Second and third harvests will hopefully be profitable. Poor water management and lack of maintenance of water storage/delivery is the culprit. Thais will continue to plant there rice,sugarcane,etc., whether it fails or not because they'll recieve a subsidy of 500-1000 baht a Rai for failed crops. "Thailand can harvest three rice crops a year" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_production_in_Thailand#:~:text=Thailand can harvest three rice,of water per cultivated rai. Sounds like you could use a refresher course in Thai agriculture. "The Fragrant History of Thai Rice" https://thaiginger.com/the-fragrant-history-of-thai-rice/#:~:text=A Cultural Staple in Asia,is ideal for growing rice.

Mines about 500 in Sakon Nakhon.

Block her. She sound like psycho tard. You've got the messages as proof she's no victim but a total nutcase. Sue her for defamation.

Last week they were telling the farmers to refrain planting a second harvest due to lack of water.

Park at your hotel and rent a scooter. Great food, very clean, good shopping. I enjoy a few nights in the old walled section at a nice hotel. My Issan wife thinks it's totally boring.

"Dogs*it clean up on aisle 5"

The story is in the Bangkok Post.

And now revelations he was paying reporters upwards of 100,000 baht for glowing stories about his crime busting exploits. Thai's and falangs in general have no respect or trust of the RTP, politicians, or any Thai placed in a position of authority.

Even worse, if that's possible.

The taxi's are being replaced by Grab, Bolt, etc. Taxi's overcharging isn't some new revelation in any case. If the TicToker tries that in Phukett he'll probably get his head bashed in.
