  1. Yes, because that is indeed the main point. There would be no Trump without his 70 million voters. So forget about Trump. Just think about it: in that country live 70 miilion people who support such an foolish narcissist. What does that tell us ?
  2. Did Mr Trump already responded to this study ?
  3. Yes, if the people remain dumb, uneducated, they are the ones to remain in power and wealthy. Of course, they don't want change. And they have a very big sponsor who wants the same.
  4. Oops. Artist, you really have the guts. I admire you but hope to see you back in one of our forums tomorrow. Please send us a sign of life sometimes:)
  5. That's a very mild conclusion. Don't forget, we will be 4 -5 years down the road, and by then the incumbants have found other ways to manipulate the outcome. The conclusion is very simple: if a few hard evidence cases pop up, including videos and trashbin searches deliver fraude evidence, plus a capitol of 12 million people which fired up in orange, whereas the rest of the country showed a complete oppositie color pattern, then you don't need to be a mathematician to conclude that manipulation was rife. Conclusion : Invalid election results. Recount everything, increase number of (international) observers, including mobile observers who can freely move around and look everywhere they want.
  6. Yes, that's also my prediction. If People's Party wins, they will find the failures, whatever it takes, and declare elections void. If the establishment can remain in power, the failures are downgraded and media will make them fade, by facts manipulation we have seen so often.
  7. What I don't understand is, who are the clients from these scams ? How can this business model support entire quarters of housing blocks, furniture, the interiors, facilities, digital networks, salaries of these operators (victims) ? I mean we know the Nigerian fake E-Mail scams for many years, you could read the mistakes in every message. What is so different about these scam centers ? I mean who are the imbeciles who embark on a phone call from somebody who promises golden mountains ?
  8. Yeah, I have watched the Netflix movie. It's a pity Alex selected these amateurs. The male guest presenter would fit a Harley-Davidson fan club and the lady lacked the experience to make it a spontaneous happening, it was all too much programmed.
  9. Yes, that's exactly what wil eventually happen, not only with NATO but with everything. Europe will join BRICS, drop the 7 high-techs, embark the Chinese alternatives in AI, no more Teslas, Meta, Google and Amazon. What children in 50 years will read in their school books, how a leading country was giving away all their cards in just 4 years time.
  10. I weekly drive through Muaklek, the elevated rail track crossing the Khao Yai hills is impressive, sky high, 1st line ready, 2nd under construction. A master piece of civil engineering.
  11. Yes, but how do they get this done ? That's the key question. In other countries, the currency strength is the outcome of a very complex formula of financial events and dependencies, where 70% is uncontrollable, and turning the 30% buttons will instantly cause penalties in other areas. So how Thai (elites) have found this single button to determine what their currency should be, just when tourist enter to raise the value, sounds like a holy grail method.
  12. First they should find out how he got the car in the first place. The average salary of a highly skilled, experienced academic degree professional would take him 150 months, more than 12 years, without spending any Bath to something else. So what would be his explanation ?
  13. So how many other 'Lukashevs' will there be under the huge Russian inflow on the island and other places in Thailand ?
  14. No worries mr Trump, there will be another chance by ending that other war which you said would be stopped by a 5 minutes talk to your friend VP.
  15. Yes, that's a very valid statement. Just look at the pictures 🙈 But how do you make this practically work ? Rate the haircut ? Or # of tatoes ? Maybe the best a short quiz at the immigration: 2/3 ok, if less failed: 1st available return flight. (1) What is the capitol of Thailand? (2) Is Thailand a member of ASEAN? (3) If you have 3 apples and you eat 1, how many are left?
  16. "overwhelming people power with an election result" we have already seen in the recent past, it didn't help. The brown envelopes are much more overwhelming.
  17. Yeah, but question is why the Thai welcome them, and other countries do not. Or do only TAT and real estate developers welcome them, and don't care about the long-term effect on their country ?
  18. Exactly, this is the truth. The ego of one person incl his elite clan is the single root cause of everything bad in the country
  19. Too easy explanation. This time it's just a personal vendetta between the two leaders, and the people suffering. "You betrayed me and my daughter by revealing that secret conversation, now I am in troubling in my own country, I am going to teach you a lesson". That's the only and simply reason. Thai and Cambodian people paying the price of these ego leaders.
  20. Look who's talking, our BMW adventure specialist. He was there, knows all details, and judged the situation from his driver seat. So, what is your track record ? What did you accomplish so far in life with respect to rescuing people ? And what do you know about emergency operations ?
  21. Yeah, but still, 40 million Baht ? The house price increase, ok, but this must have been a castle then, and not only the real estate price increases, but also your food, medical care, everything for a living, personal care. How that adds up to 40M Baht left over on a policeman's career is still a mystery to me.
  22. Yeah, but I think they should do it like with a rented car, you are even obliged to do it: walk around, look side, look under, look above, take pictures, and agree the rent is good to go or not, then finally sign.
  23. Yes, in Thailand yes. It's even stronger, I feel ashamed when I coincidentally walk in their vicinity, as other people may think I belong to them.
