GDP is just statistics, Musk alone holds 200 billion, so many others live in slum like conditions. Examples, Skid row, trailer parks, slums in inner Miami. How is the Fentanyl crisis in the US? Flakka? High school shootings? Street safety in Chicago? Nice country.

Nobody wants to have a US citizenship with the orange clown at helm. Only Venezuelan and Colombian criminals US are migrating to your inner cities. What a mess. The US has become the first NATO country with 3rd world status. 3rd world medical care, income inequality enormous, infrastructure on par with African countries, 3rd world crime statistics, and so on. An empire in decay!

Only Americans use green cards, so your rant holds no ground (again)

Khao Lak is split in 2 sides by the Phetkasem road. There are no foot bridges, so tourist have to cross this 'highway'. Super dangerous, and it begs the question:why no foot bridges?

And another bigot..... 2pm, time for your next beer.

Bigots too....

Have you ever been to Phuket? Police stops in Thalang, Chalong, Kamala, Patong. Only when it rains or around lunch time no problem.

Europeans love Canadians and their modesty, especially compared to their loudmouth neighbours.

I went on a 4 island tour in Krabi many moons ago, and the staff was busy saving Chinese snorkelers who jumped in the ocean. Some of them couldn't swim.

In live in Phuket and get stopped daily. No problem as my car and bike are insured, I wear a helmet and have valid licenses. Why do tourists feel it's ok to break the rules. Everyday I witness idiots doing the most dangerous shenanigans on their rented bikes. Want a 300 cc Forza? No problem. Patong Hill, big problem. Fine their eyeballs out! Phuket must offer better public transportation, however.

Self reflection is indeed very important.

You didn't care to read the article?

Only Thai officials can steal from Thais.

Good or selective memory.

I miss the combustion of the cannabis. Cannabis contains THCA and combustion is needed to convert this into THC., so without heating you wont feel a thing. I put my buds first in the air fryer at around 100 Celsius (not Fahrenheit), 3 times for 30-40 minutes. Don't use higher temperatures, it will damage the fragile THC. Then add oil to it (olive or coconut are best) and again 3 times in air fryer, Then, let it rest for 3 to 4 weeks and when you take a tea spoon of your potion, the effect are WOW!

We have inspector Clouseau among us.

Young people having fun without wifi. Only old rusty folks will look down on this activity.

Quite shocking how many people are killed by police per year in the States. 3rd world worthy. https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/

True, but there is more. Americans wear white socks on slippers, big NO in the rest of the world. Americans name their state instead of country when asked where from. As if the whole world knows that Indiana is a state instead of a country with -na added to it. Plain ignorance. Americans think the whole world looks up to them, where actually the opposite is true. I used to love the US, Americans, culture. But now it seems we are looking at a rebirth of Nazi Germany.

Well, in the US you might get shot.

That would be a first.

Has anyone seen the shoddy work done on the rail overpasses in Prachuap?

I dont smoke, nor do I eat hotdogs. Do you?

His war on drugs has nothing to do with fining 4 unruly tourists.

No, I know exactly what is going on here, but fail to understand your 'comparison' with road safety, Thaksin. It seems totally unrelated imho. It's very simple, smoke your weed in a dispensary or at home and don't bother others.
