  1. The push and fall didn't kill him, hitting the ground did
  2. The Chinese thrive on such delays, acquiring shipping and rights to certain ports for not completing the contracts, ask Sri Lanka and a few African nations about having to cede right to the CCP for delays and unfinished work, they love it.
  3. The relaxed purchase laws have nothing to do with the accident rate, the drunks can get alcohol anytime they want it from mom and pop stores, stiffer penalties and jail time could help in the right direction.
  4. It is almost laughable, most of the alcohol related accidents involve Thailanders, who can get cheap liquor from any mom-and-pop shop any time of the day, so the reformers are talking out of the side of their mouths.
  5. Take a short trip to Valley View restaurant north of Ban Chang, next to Green Valley Golf Course, excellent Fish and Chips, look them up in Facebook.
  6. You can live here very affordable, depending on how you budget yourself. If you have a lot of income, you can afford to live high on the hog, but if you are restricted by income, you can still live comfortably, but your choice. I get 72,000 a month from my pension, pau 7000 a month for rent and utilities, not a palace, but a nice apartment, restaurant and bar on site. Comfortable for me, and not trying to spend like a stupid farang, showing off.
  7. What a lot of people haven't looked at is what happens when projects like this fall apart in a partnership with China. Ask Sri Lanka and many countries in Africa, China ends up confiscating property and shipping site for the failure of the country they are doing project with, so Lam Chabang becomes another Chinese ran port, SAD
  8. Just wondering why Thailand is the only country I hear of regarding "cannabis poisoning", when there has to be other drugs involved, Yaba, Ice, and good chance too much alcohol. Been around a long time, smoked a lot of pot in my day, went on to a great career in retail, retired here in 2013, kind of agree about the medical certificate, but just regulate it smartly, States in the US that legalized it seem to doing it quite well, maybe Thailand needs to study their programs.
  9. What people don't seem to realize, the Muslim religion hates infidels, al non-muslim people. They are trained to make like the they like you, but when their front door closes, you are dead to them. It is really amazing the amount of women siding with them, considering if they were living in a Muslim country, they would be 2nd class citizens. Take a look at Mosque pictures, how many women do you see, 0. Yet you swallow their rhetoric, and may have to pay down the road. SAD
  10. 1 sane mind in the EU, and they try to silence her, stand strong, and tell them to climb a rope,
