Liverpool Lou

I had to call the IPC last week to query an unusual delay in my receipt of my pension, I asked if the delay could be because a LC hadn't been received and was told that wasn't the issue as, coincidentally, a LC had just been sent to me in the post. Even though they were talking to me and had fully identified me they would not accept that as proof of life, I have to wait for the form and return it in the post.

"I have never heard of..." There does seem to be a lot of legal aspects that you have never heard of! "UK doesn't usually go in for percentage of the claim". Really? Where did you get that from? You do know that "the UK" is not bringing the suit, don't you?

The suit will not be against just one division of the company, it is against Leonardo S.p.A.

...or it's insurers will pay out.

No courts anywhere "offer" damages amounts! There is no menu from which selected damages can be selected. "I'm no aviation liability expert..." Really?

Looks like they're not mentioned in the legal action so the duck's health is irrelevant.

It seems that you're the only one banging on about punitive damages. Where was that mentioned in connection with the suit that has been filed?

There's a difference between the key man in a company dying as a result of natural causes and his death being caused prematurely by a third party!

From where did you get the $4.9bn valuation for Vichai's companies and commercial interests?

Good for you. I bow to your greater legal knowledge.

Very easy to understand how a company started and guided by him, the success of which may have been entirely due to him, could suffer future losses in success due to his not being there because of his premature death caused by the manufacturer of his helicopter.

"...can not post if there is nothing their [sic]" ...so you cannot rationally post that there have never been any penalties, either! Just because you have never seen the outcome of investigations in the press does not mean that there have never been any penalties.

Check with your SIM provider for their best international rates, a 10 minute call to the International Pensions Centre cost me B40 using Dtac's 004 prefix, the other providers have similar options.

"An incident has claimed the life of a parasailing operator off Karon Beach in Phuket. The operator, identified as Mr. Pathompong ... strong winds caused the operator to lose his grip ... Sources revealed that the same operator had fallen from a parasail on multiple occasions before". That suggests to me that he was the operator of the business. "I have Never seen in the news or the internet that THAI employers have ever being penalised? please show links..." You're the one who made the claim that employers are never punished so the onus is on you to show links to justify your claim, not me!

He wasn't an employee, he was the business proprietor. "Thai safety!! They have NO idea ?? They always launched an investigation but that is it, no outcome, no prosecution of the employer..." On what do you base that allegation of no employers ever being penalised?

You think an insurer is going to look at it like that. Having been in the insurance/finance/banking industry for many years, yes, I know that's how they'll look at it, without a doubt.

What he committed isn't merely a minor offence(speeeind, or drink driving without further incidents). Seriously injured an innocent Thai national as the result of drink/reckless driving. It would be a traffic offence. Although the vendor was injured it was not "serious" enough for him to have to go to hospital. And he hasn't been found liable yet, has he?

Calling the pot calling the kettle black aren't you Lou ? A few of your posts are the same You have never seen a Thai-bashing, irrational post from me. If you have, 'kin quote it here!

It is not "the Thais", it is his company and his family, and they have to take into consideration the company's potential loss of earning for years in the future following the death of the founder caused by a third party. What is wrong with that, it happens all the time in your country, also doesn't it in similar circumstances?

Thai-bashing, irrational cobblers. You don't think that highly successful, wealthy business owners in any other country, particularly yours, wouldn't do the same in similar circumstances?

That's why they have insurers!

...but he'll be out of office in a few days.

Why would he be kicked out for a traffic offence?

TIT indeed. From the OP... "The police plan to review security camera footage to confirm the identity of the driver before issuing charges".

Oh. So?
