Chinese organized criminals are a horrible scourge tainting an otherwise wonderful place. 

and who operated, till recently, with absolute  impunity because of widespread corruption among officials in just about every Govt department of this "otherwise wonderful place".  lol

What?  Did you bother to read the OP which detailed the motive?

Why read the article when the imagination is so much more exciting lol

Just another indication of how <deleted> 40% of Americans are.

Totally agree.  As everyone now knows, and its impossible to deny, hes a pathological liar, the figure should be more like 99.99% against (the 0.01% allowing for Trump and the other mentally challenged voters),,,,,but we are talking about americans after all.

I just checked Bangkok Hospital and Bumrungrad and it is the same price for Thais and non-Thais

 

 

Yes because they overcharge everyone irrespective lol!

Searching for something new yesterday I stumbled across this documentary which, while initially put off by its Sand Sharks vs Godzilla type title, turned out to be a real find.  If you are even mildly interested in sharks, fish or fishing you will find Shark vs Tuna extremely interesting.  I watched it on lookmovies.

A news article with more adjectives than you can shake a stick at, demonizing the Chinese.

And the repetition, especially in the Thai Examiner article, over and over and over.  Reminds me of US news reports where they are desperate you believe it.

Hmmm….. why do we need to read this horrible sort of news? How does it edify our daily experience of life i wonder?

A smart man once questioned why we boast our failures at the front of the news (papers) and our accomplishments (sport) at the back?

Yes, I remember it, a great movie.

And a great actor Jimmy Stewart.

Last week or so my attention has been taken up by my wife mostly (lol), but in between I have been watching:

Blue Lights

The Devils Hour

The Godfather 1 - 3 (again!)

Lawrence of Arabia (couldnt resisit it....for the 20th time)

The Power of One

True North 2006 

Avatar 2023.

All great shows with the exception of Avatar which I felt dragged.

An old favourite I want to revisit soon is "All the Pretty Horses" with Matt Damon.  If youve never seen it and you are a Matt Damon fan you should not miss it and same with "Good Will Hunting".

"Organ harvesting in Thailand"? Cheeky bar-stewards..

This is from China, the world's organ-harvesting center, where "criminals" are executed to order, and minorities incarcerated specifically to harvest their organs for sale.

https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2021/06/china-un-human-rights-experts-alarmed-organ-harvesting-allegations

So the article mentions nothing about actual organ harvesting, only "....blood tests and organ examinations such as xray....."

no answer yet?

Must have been a hell of a fight, knocked the brim of his cap all the way to the back.

What China hopes to get out of this is a Korean-like ceasefire, where all the Western countries pay to rebuild both Ukraine and the occupied Russian zones and China just happens to be the winning bidder for all the projects. Thus China advances into controlling yet another region of the globe and Americans pay for it.

So it wont become one of Haliburtons cash-cows?

New Aussies series just started.

If you liked Underbelly, there's a fair chance you will enjoy this.

 

 

I usually like to binge watch complete seasons but as soon as you mentioned Underbelly I couldnt resist.  Thanks for the recomend, great show!

Vetiver grass, obtainable from your local government agricultural office.

Thank you,  Ive been sitting here for 20 minutes trying to recall the name.  Excellent for such a job and they may still be supplying it for free (from Govt Ag).
