Absolutely useless against unarmed students but generous inducements.

They won't dare introduce this for the Chinese, the original source of the pandemic.

Flip Flop.

By the police!

True. Arrests are always as a result of 'information received', never as a result of police action/investigation.

I know you're being ironic but my point is you need to get someone to glance at the footage occasionally.

Because they are allowed to live undisturbed until Thai police are called on to do something.

Nearly.

How many hands had s(he) got? Is this a prime example of multi-tasking?

And murder is suspected?

The first time a Thai citizen sees corruption in action is at the local cop level. It grows upwards and outward from there and permeates every facet of Thai life.

All for the lack of WD 40.

'Youth gang violence in Pattaya escalates all over' - there, fixed the headline.

Luxury hotel? There's only one charging more than 2000 baht.

No such problem on Finnair; There's no free booze for passengers and the pilots can't afford the cost of a G & T on board.

It's not his vision - it's Thaksin's who was whispering about making the Ambassador Hotel Na Jomtien the 1st casino 15 years ago. Now Thaksin is back so is this idea; Tax Sin.

The lawyer is committing suicide by police fire.

It's the Thai air; he has risked further 'illness' by going to Chiang Mai.

Meeting Agenda: Item 1 - Commissions Item 2 - see Item 1.

Surprised the police showed any interest in that case.

Just back from a MAMMOTH session at Jomtien Immigration. 1st job a 90 Day report - I know; do it on-line which I did but made a mistake & wrote GB Overseas. This is the 2nd time I've done it & it was accepted but not this time! It took an hour which was not a problem in the shiny A/C waiting room. Then I went to get my ticket for Re-Entry permit. The boy checked my docs; ensured I got correct photo-copies of relevant pages then dropped the bombshell, 'Come back at 1pm!' This was at 11.20! My as-yet-unpublished book entitled, 'Noodles at Noon', details how Cambodia's invasion plans swing into action just before the whole of Thailand shuts down. I need to re-name it with a special mention for the ironically-named Immigration force. So I waited. Just before 1pm all officials were behind their desks; the front four places in the queue were filled by agents holding weighty bundles. Precisely at 1pm the crowd surged forward. My tickets showed I was number 1 at counter 2. At 1.10 the officials deigned to notice me. I paid my 1000 baht & watched the undisguised abhorrence on one officer on counter 1 as she had to deal with farangs every few minutes. Finally my passport was returned to me & I went home; only to find my SIX MONTH re-entry permit lasts only until my Retirement 'Visa' runs out in six WEEKS! One of the questions on the form asks when will you leave/return? I filled in May 15 - June 19th. Apparently these dates were invalid. Nobody thought to mention this when they were checking & taking my money!

By the home-owner or the meter reader? Mine was higher than expected.

I see more than two in every Go-Go bar I visit.

Years ago there were 'secret' plans to develop The Ambassador Hotel Na Jomtien as a casino - the 3rd PM + an unmentionable high authority were said to be behind them.
