The latest revelation by the police is they now firmly believe weapons were used, very likely guns. Update to follow.....maybe. ????

Also they don't maintain them. When I was there the crossing lights (meant to go red when the button is pressed) outside my hotel on 2nd road were damaged not working , apparently this had been for some time, still not repaired when I left 1 month later
There is no translation for 'maintenance' in Thai language it would seem ????

A disgruntled BMW owner?
Think it was the early sixties, when the first Ford Falcon came out in Australia. One owner was so ticked off by the problems he had he invited the media onto his property, and asked them to film him burning the car.
It made the front page on a couple of newspapers. Would never happen nowadays, too much advertising revenue at risk.
I recall hearing that story but thought it was in the states and that the owner invited the boss of the local Ford Company around to witness the funeral but under some other pretext. However I am damn sure it was a Ford and not a Holden and it certainly wasnt "the Kingswood" hahaha!

Believe it or not this is, in many cases, the result of the prohibition of marijuana which was mainly caused by the USA putting pressure on other countries to make it illegal or toughen penalties. People have for centuries, all over the world, got off on something, be it marijuana, mushrooms, kratom, kava etc. etc. etc. When its made unavailable they look for something else. Unfortunately the alternative is usually synthetics ie man made chemicals. I have seen it so many times in the many countries I have travelled. "Hey Johnno, do you know of any weed getting around?" "No, nothing mate, but Joe Bloggs has got some trips going or you can try Stevie, he had some speed last week"
Why? Because synthetics are made more readily available because of their size. Criminals can make 10 to a 100 times more profit from smuggling or dealing in a kilo of say cocaine, compared to a kilo of weed. Plus there is a lot less risk because the smaller size makes it more easily concealable. Weed needs to be grown over a large easily detectable area outside for only a part of the year or indoors in an expensive sophisticated system to obtain the same profit synthetics can produce out of a normal sized kitchen. The bigger profits also attract a much nastier criminal element just as it did in the US during the Prohibition era. And what did that Prohibition achieve? Endless violence, bloodshed, death, corruption, and political control in the wrong hands etc....but it didnt stop people drinking.
There are some people who have led sheltered lives or have traveled down completely different roads to others. Or possibly they are just victims of propaganda such as "Reefer Madness" (What a joke!) and they make comments on things they obviously have no knowledge of and seem to think all drugs are the same. They certainly are not. I challenge them to produce proof, lets say newspaper articles, where someone on marijuana has for example beaten his granny to death, raped a pregnant women in a phone box, taken his infant son up onto the roof and threatened to slit his throat if the police dont give him a joint etc etc. I am sure you wont find any.
If you do find any it will be a perpetrator who is mentally unstable and the fact he/she was high on weed is irrelevant...they could have done it on anything. The killer in the OP I think was mentally unstable in the first place but the addition of yaa ba sent him over the edge. Its not called "crazy drug" for nothing. If he had been on weed and it was legal he would have merely gone into the back yard and picked a head or two, or got it from a neighbour, smoked a bong and all would be well....no innocent victims. My wife has told me stories of how when she was a child it was popular to grow it on the banks along the sides of the rice paddies, how everybody put it in their cooking and smoked bongs after a hard days work. Its use was still widespread here when I first traveled here in the early 80's . But people still went about their normal lives, went to work, ran businesses, brought up families etc. But there were no killings, savage attacks, or violence at all involving drugs because there was really only weed and kratom, it was easily obtained and it satisfied those who wanted to get off.
Thats my opinion and my experience, take it or leave it, but please dont make comments that you have no real knowlege of or experience with apart from unfounded propaganda.

So the TAT is taking a troupe of Thai hookers to Saudi Arabia on a road show? Sounds like that old proverb (and I mean no disrespect) "If Mohammed cannot go to the mountain, then the mountain shall come to Mohammed",

Utterly disgusting. He had not been breath tested by the police asking instead that he remain in the hospital.
Huh? They could not administer a breate test on site? Equipment too mickey mouse, or need to talk to daddy first? The reason why these creeps rarely get charged, is obvious enough. It is all about the money. You are above the law here, if you are worth over 250 million baht. Any and all laws. A truly regressive system.
Any why the pathological fear of defamation? Homicidal creeps like this loser should be called out by name. Shame the families. That is the least we can do.
Probably asked him to pop into the local police station some time in the next few weeks for a breath test......if its not a bother that is.

Waiting for all Thai apologists to come share their experience in moo ban where all soi dogs exchange wais with them when they pass them.

Anyone considering applying for extensions for Marriage would be advised to not read this topic.
If you qualify and have the correct documents you will have no problem. Simple as that .
Don't read the trolls in this topic.
Agreed. I've been on marriage extensions for 9 years and the only time I have had problems is when I have changed Imm. offices which have different requirements. In those cases I have taken notes to make sure its all correct the following year. My last extension was in September and it was easiest I have ever done actually requiring less paperwork (only 1 copy of everything and only 3 months of bank statements. I have only ever had one home visit where they did hint at petrol money which I ignored suggesting that needed to be taken up with their boss....end of story.
I take the money in the bank route and have never touched it bar the interest, maybe that has made it easier I dont know. However I do take a filing cabinet of documents each extension application time just in case lol and my app is printed from my PC so no pen colour issues. I sign with whatever pen they give me. Maybe I have just been lucky.

A new 4 part Marilyn Monroe documentary has dropped on hdtoday.tv exposing an alternative view of her life and death from many close to her. I found it interesting but possibly not everybody's cup of tea, up to you. "Reframed: Marilyn Monroe", IMDB 6.9

Once I asked for a receipt for the 500 Baht I paid for the residence certificate.
They told me to wait a moment. The two staff talked together in Thai..
"We can't give a receipt, what should we do?"
"Just wait, he will just go away".then asked me to sit and wait!
Yeah I just get laughed at when I ask for a receipt. My previous office used to handle the resident certs in the front main office but when Big Joke first took over they moved to a small dark back office where there were no cameras. Still no receipt of course but it was all entered in a big book. I think the upper echelon didn't trust the lowly subs.

It is Thais...not Thai's.
Maybe we need to correct our own bad grammar/spelling and/or learn to speak fluent Thai before we go too far down the path with our Thai friends. I personally get a kick out of listening to some of the pronunciations and interpretations that Thais use.
Agreed, I was only the other day having a conversation with a mate about how we have both overheard our wifes often dropping the old <deleted> or sh*t as they do their daily chores lol. It brought home just how much us Aussies swear.

When you have sub standard Teachers you will always end up with sub standard Education
Can I ask what experience you have had teaching in Thailand?
I taught for ten years here and found the teachers were like workers in any occupation...some good some bad. However I find many people are quick to blame the teachers as though the teachers have full control in the schools. Its just like our late school president used to say at the beginning of nearly every one of his speeches :
"This may be an education institution but it is a business first"
When I first started teaching here 18 years ago my salary was 40,000 per month. The standard today is around 25,000....what do you expect
I would like to see education in Thailand before we start talking about "Education Inequality". Its like that old saying....You cant complain about the communication if theres none to complain about!
