This air is out to get you

Informative opinion from economist on this from yesterday's paper. Basically tourism is not a high value added product.

Because they are hung up on the so called domino effect. Just give Putin 20% of East Ukraine that is Russian anyway and that will put an end to this.

This is another proxy anti communism war that started in 2014 with US backed coup that installed fascist government. As was done in Chile, Nicaragua, and failed in Vietnam. And don't forget how supporting Al Qaeda in Afghanistan worked out.https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/neo-nazis-far-right-ukraine/

Yes tidal currents are more dangerous the rip "tides" . A scuba diver was swept away in Samae San . I assume you were wearing fins. Dive fins would not be as effective as Duck Feet fins

There is not enough strychnine in Thailand

You wouldn't expect much from .2% : The density of THC is about one gram/ml. So in these little 5ml bottles that would be .01gram THC that equates to .01ml. So : percent by volume .01ml/5ml = .002 , .2%. By contrast if a 5ml bottle contained 850 mg THC, that is, .85ml .The percent by volume is 17%

There are really alot of things worthier to complain about around here Hoss

That was Sairee beach where the AC bar is located. Where Dave and Hana were partying and last seen. Also in that bar that night were the connected thai locals. These facts seem to be overlooked. In my opinion this was not some random attack at all. These local lowlifes were probably hitting up/harassing the girl. So Dave notices this and steps in to stop the harassment. Of course upsetting the lowlifes. They were followed out of the bar and attacked. So a normal tourist there should have no problems at all. But opening up a dive shop ?? Or going into a bar where thai males are drinking?? I visited there and had no problems at all. The most dangerous thing was the gangplank boarding the ferry in Chumphon. It was narrow and about 10 meters elevated with no handrails or rope to hold on to.

Da Nile river is overflowing today

Indeed, Would go to Half Moon Bay from the Monterey bay area just for the fish and chips. Have no doubt this guy was known as a whacko case even before this. And law enforcement should have been watching him. It's called preventative law enforcement. Unfortunately the liberals block this since some whackos civil rights are more important than public safety.

So because the $19 billion manipulation does not jive with your agenda here then it's a "story". And maybe you should read this again non selectively; 37/$ by mid 2023. expected. And from this BOT mumbo jumbo quote it seems "volatility" only requires intervention when the baht is weakening as this case in point. I ain't clinging to anything here Hoss, my standard of living is not affected whatsoever by these FX games the thai government is playing.

Could have fooled me. $19 billion not exactly chump change. And why do knowledgeable people like Enrico say they expect the baht to be about 37/$.https://www.thaienquirer.com/44229/thai-baht-heads-to-near-37-baht-us-as-bot-defends-its-use-of-19-billion-in-defending-the-currency/

Yes when the baht is weak at 37 they buy baht. Then when it switches up in value at 32 they buy dollars. And it is no coincidence that those that benefit from this are also in influential positions. Again with a very minor currency it is not difficult to do this. Not saying this is the total picture, as outlined by the OP .

Seems you have "overlooked" this BOT manipulation on the baht when it was at 37/$. As you say a very controlled boutique currency . And for this reason not difficult to prop up as "needed" https://www.thaienquirer.com/44229/thai-baht-heads-to-near-37-baht-us-as-bot-defends-its-use-of-19-billion-in-defending-the-currency/

And now a new row of seafood venders have set up on sidewalk that was Southern border of the first/front parking lot . As you approach from South on side walk just past the new parking garage . This sidewalk corner is now blocked forcing pedestrians to walk on the road where vehicles are turning left to enter.

Before getting DNA test a parent can be eliminated with certain "impossible" blood type combinations. See. chart.https://www.britannica.com/science/blood-group/Paternity-testing

That test can only be made after birth right.

It is imparitive that this case be followed: And if he gets off with less that 15 or 20 years then a very serious letter writing movement to embassy's is in order.

He is not over stating, he is describing the situation in Pattaya on the Pattaya forum. While beach cities like Santa Monica have homeless I don't think beach towns like Carmel , Newport, Laguna, La Jolla would put up with the riff raff that infest Pattaya Beach. Fwiw I've given up on Pattaya beach and motorbike promenade. Besides the cigarette smoking low life locals, the white cigarette smoking foreign slobs Not my problem anymore. Hello Jomtien

thai males- Don't even look at them

Ok if the Brit did not instigate this then that sure does take "these pos thai males" down to a lower level.

Instigate: to start or initiate. No one is say that the two above are the same. I hope this thai pos is locked up for 20. But the Brit had been drinking for hours and although there is only one witness, I believe the Brit instigated this with the banging on car.
