'The sluggish revival of business tourism, coupled with Thailand’s failure to establish itself as a global connection hub, has resulted in Thai Airways’ brand value lagging behind its rivals. Conversely, Centara Grand Hotels & Resorts has emerged as the strongest brand in the nation this year.' Spot the difference in the BP's opening para & this.
  2. but my guess is they put the roof on before building the walls.
  3. Heart warming indeed. I felt sure our hero would be a taxi driver to counter the thug stories. Why would the tourist 'initially fabricating a story about a lost silver bracelet'?
  4. 'Police Hunt Down Culprit for Attack on Elderly Dutch Tourist in Chonburi' or put another way, 'have not yet hunted down culprit.' I was about to congratulate (for the 1st time ever) the local police (who are still waiting for someone to blab and do their job for them as every other day.)
  5. This is Prawit's day job. Maybe he has a night job too?
  6. And cash in on lucrative building contracts. Why would Pattaya need another terminal 40 kms from Laem Chabang?
  7. Unfortunately I spent time in Hat (Rat) Yai and watched its population soar at weekends as the Malays (all male) descended for Thailand's famed product: oats.
  8. Yet I know of one cop who died of it.
  9. Theft timed at about 5pm; discovered at 5am? Was she just coming home at that time?
  10. I thought Bentleys and other luxury cars were exempt from police action?
  11. A future crime waiting to happen. Pattaya Plod are wetting themselves at the prospect of solving a case without the public's help.
  12. It was, by those who commissioned the project in the 1st place!
  13. 'Quick Police Action' this is the ultimate oxymoron; quick police! police action!
  14. It's always complex when police are involved. Extra warrants are being sought to enable the guilty to make arrangements.
  15. There is no need for ANY charity contributions; the King has said he will pay for every thing.
  16. He's a military man so immune from the law.
  17. Agreed. How was this serial offender identified? If the RTP could read his plates why did it take so long?
  18. It won't pass; the police won't allow it. Same as seatbelts in the backs of pickups; black windows in cars; meters in taxis; red-light running; speeding.
  19. The walkways will have been maintained as well as Thai-owned cars are.
  20. Nobody at Sattahip cop-shop does any rushing. My mate turned up for two pre-arranged meetings with the station chief only to be told he had gone shopping with his daughter! The constable who attended my accident turned up 20 minutes after two helmetless morons ploughed into me at 90kph as I waited to turn right at a U-turn. He immediately decided it was my fault for crossing a major road from a minor one.
