    Elections have consequences.

     

    This last election has had the consequence of removing a man who stands with America’s enemies and has replaced with a true patriot.

    Really? What are you chomping on,raw cannabis, living in a fairy tale world. I suppose it is the act of a true patriot to open the Southern Border to anyone who wishes to enter, without a visa, without health checks,without means of support. Why not replicate these rules to all entry to the USA  at all ports of entry, no visa, no money, no job, no health restrictions...save a fortune in Immigration personnel and consular staff, just buy a ticket, in you come. A true patriot would be interested in the financial  and personal welfare of the citizens and not interfere in the infrastructure that is in place, or being developed, to improve living,safety  and cost benefits to resident citizens.

  2. Over 5000+ pages of legislation for covid-19 relief? What a load of deceitful garbage from a load of self serving professional parasites. Probably only 200  pages required for relief of citizens and businesses from loss of income caused by this virulent virus, which is not fatal in over 98% of cases. What were the other 5000+ pages for? This just epitomizes the corruption of US politics,where long term public servants, joking, have become extremely rich, must be by investing their salaries wisely, cannot legally see any other way. All other spending should be in bills designed for specific purposes, not lost in the labyrinth of over 5000 pages of of effluent so funds can be donated  surreptitiously without justification.  Still it`s up to you myopic US citizens to deal wth this, the rest of us will just look on and laugh at you being fleeced by these servants of the people, after all it`s your tax money that is being deceitfully appropriated for expenditure that has almost no benefit to the ordanary member of `we the people`, or should that read sheeple?

    Thank you for your attempts to cleanse the Thaivisa forum of any actual discussion or debate.

    I cannot imagine what sort of twisted process an expat must go through in order to end up believing that people he disagrees with deserve to be deported. Clearly, however, having me deported would be easier for you than countering my facts with any sort of argument.

    I would, however, point out that, as your post mentions moderation, it is in flagrant contravention of forum rules and should be deleted.

     

    Interesting reply. what facts?..you have not supplied factual proof of the suggestion of anything, only conjecture in your post...and I implied that by inferring that people who have the power to remove permission to stay in Thailand  of any action that is not ethical could lead to the closing of Thaivisa and cancelling of visa. I am all for open discussion of any topic , but this is Thailand and one must live and speak within the constraints of the society we reside in and keep your 'FACTS' to yourself unless the Thai authorities actually broach the subject in public themselves. Just because big jerk has filed suit against the government for infractions of labour laws does not justify unconfirmed allegations against some very powerful people.

    Does anybody have some knowledge the Thai naval doctrine? The Gulf is large, but reportedly has an average depth of 68 meters and the deepest parts are 100 meters. May be smaller 300-500 ton subs will be more suitable. Or fast patrol boats can give sound coastal protection. There is probably some kind of inter-service rivalry between the Army and the Navy, and the boat boys want sexy toys too.

    What is the purpose of the submarine?
    They provide intelligence and underwater protection for surface ships, and are able to detect and lay mines more efficiently than any other navy vessel. Submarines provide a means to land special forces in hostile regions and, if fitted with suitable weapons, are able to strike land targets.
     
    Unless Thailand enters into international aggressive hostilities, deep sea submarines are pretty useless. They would not last 5 minutes in the Thai coastal waters against any half decent opponent, so would be of little use in protecting Thailand.  They will be an even bigger white elephant than the empty air craft carrier as the supporting infrastructure and operating costs for these items would make  a huge dent in the military budget.

    These massive movement of people, first Thais back to the village, second this  movemnt of Cambodians & third Laos folks all heading home will spell doom for Thailand & its surrounding countries, maybe until Christmas,

    The only way to fight this virus is limit carriers movement.

    Can they not understand this or just do not want to listen to the specialists?

    I am Thai, I know best, it will not happen to me, by the way what is listen?

    i think when people say 'quiet' they usually mean lack of things to do, which ironically seems to cause more noise

     

    when the speakers come out these villages are louder than most cities

    I love living in the middle of no-where...had to go to Pattaya on business for a couple of days...road works and incredible traffic congestion, hated it...the only drawback, as mentioned is the 300 decibel speaker addiction, death,marriage, barfday, new house occurrences. Mostly it is very quiet and civilised, people are friendly and polite...except for my wife...reasonably decent vet within 12k..local hospital 12k, decent private hospital 35k, tesco, big C, good dog food suppliers 12k..I have plenty to do caring for my canine tribe, bed before 21.00 rise a 05.00....I have a good internet connection, for news, online books and torrents, True tv...(for what it's worth)...95% reliable electricity supply...very rare traffic problems. I like it.
