  1. I've said this about Thai workers in whatever job they are 'employed' in. There is a genetic predisposition towards work avoidance sometimes requiring greater amounts of energy than actually working.
  2. 'the Assistant Chief of Police, the Police Commissioner, the head of the Immigration Bureau, and the Governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand,' - Four of the Best Purveyors.
  3. 'Thailand, who has no dog in this fight,and were there to earn a living, should sue the Hamas and all other terrorist groups in the international court of law for compensations for lost of life, pain and suffering, Hamas has billions and so the other groups, let see them justify the atrocities they have inflicted on the innocent Thai workers.' Thai lawyers are far too overworked to consider any new cases. They are still working on appeals dating back ten years.
  4. Slow Horses S3 E1 out Dec. 1st.
  5. A good trick for an admiral. He's only here looking for draft-dodgers.
  6. Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin will be taking credit for this, unaware that Thais are considered worthless as bargaining chips in a stand-off. I note that of the others released, at least FIVE were over 75 & at least one over 80. Hamas is now reaping the whirlwind.
  7. How easy is it to take my car? I accept it will be a righthand drive amongst most lefthanders.
  8. Boat Story - one episode in & I'm hooked.
  9. So he'll never do any time and some selected local cops will get new cars.
  10. Seeing is believing. A new round of projects will be 'mulled' before the allocation of the next budget is announced.
  11. Why don't they form a force of paid volunteers to observe plumes of smoke coming from burning forest & farms and so take action against the arsonists? They could give them brown uniforms.
  12. And I have written two Thai based books + a Thai TV series and can't get a sniff of fame & fortune as my submissions to agents are written in English.
  13. + he has exported billions abroad. Remember the good old BP days (Before Prayuth) when there was a crime called 'being unusually rich'? He effectively abolished this, thus giving carte blanche to the nodding-dog senators to drink deep from the public coffers.
  14. I thought TAT already boosted tourist numbers by dodgy mathematics?
  15. Another couple of weeks and Ten Hag would have been available.
  16. Akin to any of the tasks Hercules accomplished.
  17. AKA Junkets and his plan to rack up airmiles as he attempts to pose as a legitimate PM.
  18. There are laws about seatbelts in the back of pickups; black car windows; helmets on motorbikes; all mostly ignored by the police until times are hard. 'the people (represented by the politicians) have no say' - I would say this effectively sums up the present Government.
  19. Where are they for 38 weeks of the year? They emerge for the 14 Dangerous Days to collect their overtime then hibernate. Policing in Pattaya is scandalous.
  20. The police decide what laws to enforce NOT their political 'masters'!
  21. I'm off to Laos & taking my 800K with me.
  22. A rare triumph for Pattaya policing.
  23. The police don't need to look far afield.
