    You'd think the owners would have learned after the last raid how much the going rate was.

    It could have been worse; he could have swerved and killed a child avoiding the dog. I fail to understand Thais who bang on about wearing masks to guard against disease yet allow hundreds of thousands of these critters to pollute every soi in the country.

    I meant 'Somewhere Boy' (I've corrected it elsewhere.) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13045814/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_2

    It's not developing very fast! I've been here 18 years and the same stories crop up every year: floods; drought; police corruption; army coups; crooked politicians. The only new scandal that has surfaced is the importation & naturalization of Chinese Triad members.

    They will be flying him out of U-tapao shortly. I believe there's lots of empty seats on outbound flights despite them being full on arrival a week or so earlier.

    I thought Prayuth was waiting at BKK with a basket of fruit. Amazing that he was the 10,000,000th foreigner to visit Thailand this year!

    Not necessarily. The BIB are open to offers.

    That could be construed as ' lets have a crackdown on policing'. Long overdue.

    Along with policing; dog control; governing ...

    Amazing how many criminals have the foresight to disappear before the police arrive; forewarned is forearmed?

    Up to 23 in Pattaya ATM.

    Of course he's going to 'endorse' all these projects with this amount of money sloshing about in the kitty.
  13. mikebell
    Of course it will, given the huge sums involved.

    If Thailand had a police force that 'served and protected' its citizens by rubbing out dangerous drivers instead of feathering their own police stations, I suggest fatal accidents would decrease significantly. Speed is the major common cause of fatalities and surely the easiest to spot and eradicate?

    Won Hung Lo - a famous Chinese magician?

    It depends who his father is.

    Meanwhile another 20 people died on the roads.

    How do you turn a motor bike into a petrol station? Magic?

    I see the whole of Pattaya's police force is present in the photo.

    Every other year some prat comes up with yet another harebrained scheme. A feasibility study is organised at great public cost then nothing happens till the council want another influx of cash. The baht bus mafia will never allow anything to break their grip.

    The poor guy might have just dodged being conscripted into Putin's war?

    Fancy riding in a plane that smells of old chips.

    He & the police chief look remarkably cheerful in the photo heading the closed thread. (Do they know something we don't?) His sentence had 34 years lopped off already; how time flies in Thailand!

    Dementia has set in! I meant SOMEwhere Boy - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13045814/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_2

    'Nowhere Boy' is my 2nd choice of best series. The central character is kept in a time warp by his dad. They only watch old movies and listen to music from my by-gone years which adds an extra layer of nostalgia. Most of the central characters are worth caring about.
