I don't think everyone is a clueless idiot just because they choose not to integrate with the native population of any given country. Supposing I lived in Germany for a 10 years or Russia? Why should I bother to integrate with either peoples? It would make me the novelty and possibly force me into loads of unwanted conversations.

Can't be @rsed

So the headline was wrong, apparently. But he certainly sounded Indian. I understand there are many Indians living in Ceylon Strepsils? More like gargle with Lidocaine.

Was he listening?

I think some people might think he deserves a slap. They would probably be right. He had no need to repeat himself.

Why do Australians have this obsession with " biker gangs"? Totally uncool.

too many not to many

Why would anyone think he's unhinged?

Me too: zero tolerance for drunk drivers and zero tolerance for whiners & whingers.

Not realistic for the people maimed or killed in the accident. What makes you so blasé about 3rd world police corruption? Sound very entitled to me.

You don't need to know the blood/ alcohol levels of any given country. They are irrelevant if you DONT DRINK AND DRIVE. It's that simple: especially with all the taxi services running these days. Nobody needs to break the law and then whine about it on a forum like this.

Drunk driving is one of the WORST CRIMINAL OFFENCES frequently resulting in the death of innocent people. The writer of this unedifying story is a shameless disgrace. He is lucky he didn't crash his car, injured his girlfriend and hurt a stranger. Zero sympathy from me. Two weeks in prison plus a fine.

If people want to be offended then it is up to them to be offended or not. I think ' Farang' is funny and I don't take offence. Like with all racist insults the perpetrator is the idiot not the 'victim'. As for 'Ni Hao' I'd never heard it before.

Why do the forum managers allow this rubbish to be published? I think it is a disgrace.

I definitely want the anti shingles vaccine. ASAP. And any others I can get. I am 100% PRO vaccine. 100% believe in vaccines. And regard anti-vaccers as sad, deluded eccentrics who should not be given public platform on forums like this. They are damaging the health of the communities.

"Nature has the answers we seek" ..Yes it's called death. DEATH is natural. Polio is natural. MEASLES is natural so what? Vaccines are a miracle that saved/ extended the lives of millions of people. Only Americans fall for this anti vaccine propaganda and a few English speaking eccentrics.

Our generation grew up without the fear of Polio & Measles because of vaccines. The anti vaccine lobby hails from the USA where medical treatment is private and has to be paid for. Startling research has revealed that only a dozen people are responsible for most of the hoaxes and lies about COVID-19 vaccines on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Yet social media companies have failed to adequately police the dangerous misinformation and its spreaders, according to the organization that listed what it called the “Disinformation Dozen.” The misinformation superspreaders are continuing to fuel vaccine reluctance among millions of Americans, which threatens to become a major hurdle to conquering the pandemic.

Oh bolleaux. I've been to Oman and it was very nice but I prefer Bahrain. https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/funeral-of-a-friend-who-had-the-covid-booster-and-developed-raging-cancer/ Er -how does cancer "rage"?

"saving someone from that line of work" Spoken with absolute ignorance of the hostess scene. LOL It's Songkran- it's only natural for men to have no top and women to have a bathing suit/ bikini top

What are the other variables? Age? Illness?

No. Definitely not. People forget how millions of voters chose Trump.

Sadly you are correct. Happily I will not be there to see it. I noticed this 45 years ago. Sadly they are monolithic- witness what is happening in British jails these days.

Thank you. That is helpful. My due date is 16th May.

That's the information I received from immigration officials at the Pattaya office two months ago. Therefore, I am only passing on information, in good faith. TBH I don't really like your attitude that is rude & hostile.

It has to be a full two weeks before the renewal date.
