Black Diamond in Lamai will be open till 7am every morning, and will show the football on there Plazmas

There is a yellow mistsubishi Evo flying around Koh Samui at the moment ( Well actually over 6 months now ) and the car is on Malaysian number plates ( mostly parked oppoiste the PTT in Chewang )

The car is also for Rent now at 8,000 THB Per Day...

But my questions are

1) How can a malaysian car stay this long in Thailand without having to transfer to Thai Plates?

2) How can the legally hire a car that is not registered in Thailand to people staying in Thailand?

Has this person just brought the car over from Malaysia ( as it seems the owner may be local ) and intend to keep it here without paying import tax ect ect..... as we all know Samui can be a lawless or blind eye turning island

Even they where to ban alcohol next year, it is only the sale, thus people will stock up prior... also note songkran for example has only lasted 1 day in Samui.... how they could ban for 7 days!, kiss goodbye to the tourists!!!!

If they pin pointed the promblem to BAD policeing, maybe there would not be so many deaths.......

I myself have lost a very good friend yesterday who was killed..... he will be just another satistic, but the crash/acciedent was avoidable if the police where doing there Job !!!!!!!!

Kind of like this

I was in Phuket Friday and drove back to Samui Saturday morning.... all in Phuket and every town and village you i drove threw before i got to Donsak had a well orginized police check point.... and Samui ...... NOTHING!

This kind of speculation could cause a collaspe of the smaller banks!! as everyone may start to transfer to the lager ones ... similar to the northern rock panic, where everyone withdrew there savings.

I bank with Siam Commercial... hope they are safe....

Songkram last year started in the afternoon at Soi Green Mango and was full on until the bars closed. This year will be the same with the Thais joining in on the 13th. After the 13th you can smack anyone in the mouth that soaks you. The Thai way of celebrating is great just a sprinkle of water and some talcum powder but as usual the farangs come along and ruin it.

Songkram last year started in the afternoon at Soi Green Mango

which afternoon? 12th or 13th?

Even on the odd occasion i have had to stop along either beach road or second road, i have always been told 5 Mintues MAX as this for TAXI and TUK TUK!

Should these Visa Runs not be more about Safety rather then Speed? What is the Rush to get back anyway? I would rather arrive back in Samui at 6, but know that i am arriving back safe, and with cleaner pair of underpants then if i had taken Herberts one day theme park roller coster dodgam car excuse of a visa run!

The National Counter Corruption Committee (NCCC)

How many staff work in this department?? would need to be in excess off 20,000 civil servents to cater for thailand's taste of 'Tea Money'

and where was the plane originally coming from??? as how the hel_l did the Guy get a Knife onto the plane?!?

some people have to much time on thier hands....... this car looks horrible!

In the event i ever need to Rent a car, i always use the Brand Name car hire firms... Thus if you do have a crash ect, you know you are covered!

OK, sounds fantastic!!!.... What with Thailand at the moment still having the worst internet speed and connections in the world!

I presume this will be introduced sometime within the next 10 years!!!

Hi

With Songkarn just around the corner, does anyone know what day it is starting in Koh Samui ?

For the last 3 years, it has always kicked off on a different day to the year before, and also the time length?
