Does this not suggest that she died?

Thai deaths are different.

So the revising of the recent revision of the previous revision of the old revision of revamped bus numbers has yet to implemented and the date may be subject to revision.

The only surprise it this has not been exposed before 

No surprise as he was doing the army's dirty work. Took a change of Govt to expose him.

Last year's drought hit production hard. All our neighbours have had a reduced crop, some by as much as 30%. Now they've been told the canals won't be opened for the foreseeable future as there's not enough water in the reservoirs. Looks like some rice farmer's will be lucky to get half of their usual money.

Looks like the cow-pat in our rice field I nearly stepped in this morning.

At least Pita didn't end up in the Mekong with a concrete overcoat so hope he carries on the good fight.

If your embassy is correct then every expat is going to get a massive tax bill and its very simple because minimum 400,000baht ~ 800,000baht has to be brought in to Thailand for a retierment visa every year. The Thai government is not your friend. They want every satang they can squeeze out of you. Only when thousands of expats leave will it become another misunderstanding. 

The tax payable on 400k bht per year for an expat is hardly massive, about 1700 bht per month. Even less if they are officially retired, over 65 I believe, when the allowance before being taxed goes up substantially.

This is what happens when a UK Govt refuses to properly fund it's mental health services and it's Police Force.

How can this be the inaugural seaplane terminal?  What about the failed seaplane venture around 2008?

Thai inaugurals are different.

23 people packed in a truck? theses guys had a lucky star. why on earth is this still allowed? i drive fast, but i still get overtaken by, specially isuzu truck maniacs, crazed thais carrying a load of people.

I counted forty, honestly!, in a pickup once. Eight in the cabin and 32 in the bed. They were sat four abreast on four planks double-decker style so two layers of 16 labourers.

Well, AFAIC, this guy, being a monk, is just fine, masturbating is healthy, as far as one washes his/her hands, before and after. When I was 10 they didn't tell me and I got a UTI.

Masturbation may be entirely healthy but when somebody can't help doing it on a bus in front of adults and kids that's a sure sign they have a screw loose and need some form of mental treatment.

Where has she revealed her credit card details?

 

More like she's having a tongue-in-cheek pop at Thai internet citizen's unhealthy infatuation with other people's business, especially how much money they (probably don't really) have.

When you show your credit card on a public available video, if the quality is good enough, the number can easily be taken down and used by those less honest members of society.

The headline for this article is totally incorrect.  How does she know that the man had intentions to rape her?  Maybe he lives there too.  Perhaps he is waiting for a friend of his that lives there.  Maybe he wasn't going to rape her but just rob her.  Maybe he wasn't going to do anything.  She was smart to text her roommate and wait to get on the lift with someone that she recognized since she felt uncomfortable.  

Don't you think pushing her into the room as she opened her door and then dropping his trousers was a bit of a giveaway?

Pathetic flaunting of supposed wealth followed by a statement that the card is little more than worthless. She should be more worried that she's given away her card details than any attempt at self promotion.

Standby for a ramping up of diplomatic efforts after the Govt pin all the blame on Burma, Cambodia and Laos.
