WTF were they thinking, brain dead or what? #Should think themselves lucky they were not caught in Singapore I suppose. Under Singaporean law, drug trafficking offences carry the mandatory death sentence with only narrow exceptions. The employer arranged their travel tickets and accommodation in Thailand, where they were to receive the suitcases containing the cannabis. They were to transport the drugs out of Thailand by taking domestic flights to Koh Samui, before travelling from Koh Samui to Singapore and connecting to their final destination in the UK. If successful, each individual would receive a fee of £2,000, approximately 86,000 Thai baht. Some suspects were also offered the chance to clear debts owed abroad by their employers.

Former finance minister Sommai Phasee, how long before he has a sudden accident or gets accused of something? Good job betting is verboten in Thailand.

Drop it, Hide it, Lose it, well known for not getting things to correct destination, so anything's possible.

No, not American, first passed the post Brit, the point I was trying to make was in the link, 47% Approve and 51% don't, but then the poll was of 1,000 voters, to me that shows the ridiculousness of these polls and the way either side spins the findings to suit their side.

So yes, Trump clearly won the 2024 election. But it was no blowout — and he has no major mandate. https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_fit-760w,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2025-03/250313-nbc-news-poll-trump-3x2-cs-55476e.jpg Don't look so good to me.

I know the places you've seen in Pattaya, all looking busy and successful, which the well established ones probably are, but only after years of hard graft. The Thai rules of business for expats, employment laws would be another factor to consider. I'm a fan of Cheap Charlies IMHO they do a good job on service and food and I've often sat there after a meal day dreaming, thinking I could have done that better, then reality steps in, it's a tough business not for the feint hearted.

Have run a few pub restaurants and eateries in the UK, did ok in some rubbish in others, my advise, if you think it's easy, forget it, worry, stress, competition and finance will send you to an early grave.

If the USA can't handle their debt stop funding conflicts all over the globe, after all it's not winning them many friends but giving them plenty of enemies.
