Drop the dead donkey

Sounds very much like the (around 700) decree that China instigated. Busting a $1.5 Billoon dollar industry on the 7th August 2021.

Thus decree, effectively fired from employment over 60,000 online (English, American, South African Australian, teachers) foreign English language teachers over night.

China wants some of the $1.5 Biilion. They are making regulation to instigate government control. Basically, wanting bribes for foreign language schools to operate in the country.

Finally, all foreign teachers cannot teach online to this day, unless you actually live and reside in China.

I expect most countries have restrictions on people randomly bringing in fruit, though the Thai penalties are light comparatively, up to one year imprisonment/20000 baht fine.

They may like to consider the tourist fined in July for bringing half a Subway sandwich to Australia - $AU2644, that's $US1844.

I remember once landing in Bangkok, and having a banana confiscated from an emirates flight. I said to them it was likely from the Caribbean. But as a passenger, I was completely oblivious to its origins.

I laughed so much, that they got shirty and angst. It made me laugh even more. 
in fact, I had to sign a waiver for the banana, which made me bend over double - nearly pissing myself laughing.

One of the most funniest customs experiences I have ever had in the world. 
But to top it off he has to be the Land of Smiles.

I bet they won’t be the HISO tourists that they have been banging on about for the past 2 years!!

just mainly backpackers and people using Thailand as a hub for Asian flight hopping.

skid  calculator, suggests the driver was at a speed of 151 kmh if his skid was 150m long.

!!!!

some speed for the middle of the capital city at 03:45 in the morning!!

I hope he has been arrested .

This is really difficult to really accept today. I would think that the local government offices are going to build more buildings or classes.

Must agree, the views on this pass are magnificent. A nice place for a lazy bike ride taking in the scenery.

Question is:

did they buy the fuel in Vietnam, or another country ?

Wow.

I wonder if it’s because they hadn’t been paid ?

So do they keep their phones stored in plastic bags ?

Normally, a shop has a stock room with phones all stored in their boxes securely locked at the back of the store !!

I am perplexed !

Interesting news, as this is a major tourism spot. Also the hikes that are available at the botanical gardens, could be considered as semi jungle, and the waterfall climb as well. This could pose a threat to tourists, especially those riding the Ho Chi Minh trail that runs through the park.

After reading Shelby Tucker’s book ‘Among Insurgents’, I thought Karen’s were indigenous to the extreme north east of Burma near the Chinese border.

If they are more wide spread, I would like to know more.

A MEMBER. A bit like a CUCUMBER, or BANANA.

A member of the medical council. 
another fake news that the government needs to jump on.

an opinion.

government - fake news..

it is here in your face !!!

The funny thing about this is:

UN statistics state the 38% of the worlds population are married or joined with cross national people.

therefore, where do we stand in Thailand? 

Just like Happy Valley in Hong Kong during the 1800’s ... Pox ridden. Leave them alone, and the problem will go away. That was the colonialist view on the problem.

Remember, he caught it in Thailand. That is against all logical views of the dirty Farang.

Even more xenophobic, is that he is black from Nigeria !!

heaven forbid that a Thai catches it first.

Even though the pilots maybe slow in taxi. The volume of passengers, and international passengers just proves that Vietnam is so far ahead of its neighbours. More importantly a massive difference in positive tourist numbers compared to Thailand.

Rock on Vietnam.

This is such great news. Vietnam, seen as the new jewel of Asia, is literally jumping back to pre pandemic levels of tourism.

When you look at Thailand, with dual pricing, rip off taxi’s and scooters. Scammers on the beaches, and all the other insane entry issues. No wonder they are experiencing tough times to win back tourists. It is their own making.

Vietnam, rock on.

So does that mean the police can go across the road to the cafe and smoke it there ?

Sounds like it to me!!

It seems the Russians are becoming desperate to strengthen ties, as they have been shunned by the world. I really hope that Vietnam doesn’t sign trade deals now. Because Russia is suffering due to sanctions and desperately needs goods in the country.

However, they have created this situation with the invasion of eastern Ukraine. 

He has been reading British news and seen that the medical council are also asking mask mandate reinstatement.

Nothing new here.

R.I.P. to all those fallen from both sides of an unnecessary conflict

Incubation period states it all!!!

He caught it in Thailand and was graced with a foreign trip to blame it on the xenophobic faring. 
 

What is astounding and clear to see, is that the media can actively promote this credit action as a foreign Bourne admission of capture to the virus. When medical science clearly give 10-14 days to catch the virus. He would have understandably been in Thailand when he caught it.

Mr Booster just got boosted up his rear end !

As in my namesake

Drop The Dead Donkey on Thailand.

too little, too late.
