Thank you for sharing your narrow-escape experiences from several major quakes. You seem to have a pretty strong luck. Any major quake damages(half-built skyscraper fell down in BKK, far away from the seismic center) in Thailand. It was almost the last thing I could possibly imagine while in this kingdom...

Little had I expected to see the quake causing building(skyscraper under construction) collapse in BKK. This is the first major earthquake damage in Thai history. The first quake that brought human causality(of 2) was in Chiang Rai in 2011. While one huge half-built building crumbled in BKK, no damage was done to the apartment I live in Chiang Mai(it is more than half a century old though).

While that skyscraper(under construction) crumbled, the Chiang Mai(closer to the seismic center) apartment(over 50 years old) I live in, didn't have any damages. The taller the building is, the shock of the quake is more amplified.

warning others to be extremely cautious when making online financial transactions. Online payment settlement always comes with the risk of scams (to both buyers and sellers). Ordinary people can do very little to prevent it. The best way is stick to cash payment where possible.

When they feel they don't have enough customers, they are often overpriced. 2 small diners in my neighborhood(one run by shop owner alone, another by old wife and husband) always look busy. They have something in common; reasonably priced(the former is 35B, and the latter is 40B). Their fried rice below: 35B 40B 40B plate is one feet large...

What I fixed for lunch today(after the quake at 13:20). Tomato Flavored Stewed Pasta and Salad. Ingredients: Pasta: Rice noodle(1cm wide), chicken mince, capsicum, onion, and tomato(chopped). Salad: Coleslaw, cucumber(shredded), tomato, (pre-cooked) carrot. Seasonings: Pasta: Chicken stock, ketchup, BBQ sauce, oyster sauce, grated ginger & garlic. Salad: Mayonnaise, ketchup, soy and oyster sauce.

Buddhist virtues of Thailand, also deeply imbedded with superstitions. Like both sides of the coin.

Anyway, good to know about his safe return.

Yes, if making an apology can end any cases, this world wouldn't need any cops, prosecutors, court, and jails. Criminals must pay for what they did.

Naritsara, upon seeing the homeowner, begged for forgiveness, admitting her errors Sounds stupid. Error means the honest and unintended mistake. But she was prepared to commit a crime. So it is hardly an "error".

As she looked too skilled, for the first timer.

Thank you for sharing your personal experience. While it is often regarded "Africa's fastest growing economy" though.

That SO* just bought his permanent space at BKK Hilton for 30M THB. Worst bargain of the century...

In a cage.

Police negotiated with him for over an hour, Don't negotiate with a Terrorists. Blow that thing away instead.

Another human shaped vermin. Deserves to get shot at sight. Toting with other people's life, means renouncing own rights to live on. One more nasty result from the visa waiver scheme from 93 nations.

as he will be left penniless before the sun rise. All of his valuables(cash, cards, phone) will be undoubtfully snatched away.

The most harmless headline of the "incident" I have ever seen in the past months.

Just let him be unless he is in the middle of the car lane. Just a harmless innocent man. Not swearing or breaking anything...

Citizenship evidence needed for registration to vote. What is wrong with that? It is natural that they must prove that they belong to the nation when they seek their right to vote. Otherwise, anyone and everyone can falsely claim they are citizens of any countries. It is rather amazing that US didn't have that law by now.
