  1. Yeah yeah, it's a big world, plenty of other countries to 'flee too' - I'd bet a load of them will end up over here.
  2. Then just like that for no reason whatsoever everyone left Dubai and stopped using their airline forever!
  3. It's odd that he's wearing a jacket at this time of yer. Likely hiding distinguishing marks on his arms which suggests intent.
  4. The website is still online, the Mupparna.net one, not sure about the darknet version. One of the first things I saw was Yabba for sale, lol
  5. This is an oddly long sentence for something that's seemingly victimless. An example, someone but another mans throat and he died, he did a few years - like 3 before he was out again. I saw the fight where this happened, he used a machete and but his throat. 18 years for a 'document fraud' which happened in a foreign country - something doesn't add up here
  6. Did they recover much or even any of the money?
  7. They're not in the 'opposition makers' either....
  8. People are arrested so they can gather evidence. Most of the evidence comes from any interview should the suspect decide to open their mouth - or computers. This guy had a long time to prepare - I doubt they will find anything - but whatever is in the Epstein document dump is out of this control......
  9. A little odd, wasn't he arrested over mentioning some business deal he had done to Epstein who then went on to make some money out of it somehow. Classic insider trading by Epstein, but unless old 'airmiles Andy' knew his intent then I doubt it's even illegal to mention your work to some guy you know - unless of course there's a lot more to it, and/or a pattern of this type of behaviour on an ongoing basis. Which is why they will be interviewing him, in some naive attempt to get him to incriminate himself. His lawyer will tell him to keep his mouth shut and make no comment.
  10. How did these items end up in Switzerland - were they purchased from someone in Thailand at some point or gifted ?
  11. So what? When I lived in Europe I wasn't too fond of most of the people there either and kind of mixed with the people in by 'social bubble' - you know - the people I knew and met with on a regular basis. It's the same thing.
  12. That's the problem with any food related mincer, processor - complete pain in the arse to clean - even those cheese graters where you turn the handle - stuff gets everywhere!
  13. Lets not forget the 'snowbirds' who own holiday homes and like to come for the winter. I guess they don't really want to continue selling all those holiday apartments and houses because they're definitely making it a lot more hassle to visit your own luxury apartment when retired. People hate paperwork and don't care what the criminals do - also the criminals will do whatever they want, if they get caught then they get caught - they don't care either.
  14. What are we talking about here, many million Baht transactions or like 100k Baht and up ?
  15. They're sending a very clear message here - they simply don't care at all. Add Laos to the <deleted>list and never go there. Government warnings should be issued. There's no deterrent preventing them from doing this kind of thing again and again.
  16. If you work for a large corporation they're likely going to want to check the legal status of your situation which leaves only the LTR option.
  17. That's a bit of a problem isn't it - they should order immediate by elections in these areas as many people vote early. Elections in those areas where the margin between the end result and the number of votes cast for suspended candidates should be considered null and void.
  18. Nobody can read your emails. Think of the email address as a phone number. If someone sees your phone number written down, they can't listen in on your phone calls. It's the same with email.
  19. I entered Egypt at that crossing many years ago. We had to wait for many hours while a convoy was built up it then had a full military escort all the way into Cairo. It's been closed for a very long time.
  20. Gold tanked by about 10% at one point yesterday....getting very volatile out there which would be kind of normal I guess after an epic run up like this. It's correcting.
  21. The suppliers have to make some profit I guess and that will vary.....they're essentially the same price.
  22. Just get one of these : From here : https://www.invadeit.co.th/product/ups/cyberpower/ups-online-sc-ols2000ec-2000va-1600w-tower-p036492/ Double the capacity, online - decent price and decent brand.
  23. Makes that 15 year extension of my previous 5 year membership for another 500k Baht back in 2024 look like peanuts, well worth it I guess. I can come and go as much as I want until 2040 with what I have now. I do believe they will be forced to reduce prices and start introducing basic entry level offerings just like they did before in the next year or two due to a total lack of new sales. In 2040 I'm not paying them millions just to extend again, that's for sure.
  24. Well, this is what happens when they're allowed to literally make it up as they go. People getting ejected on arrival - not a good luck - people will just limit trips, many can't be bothered to apply for a visa, especially if they want to audit your bank account. I would never get such a visa that requires me to disclose balances.
  25. They might as well give up on this one, nobody wants to use it based on what I've heard. I used it a few months ago but the Mrs won't go anywhere near it.
