Filipinos must be narcissistic.

Narcissus, means "inordinate fascination with oneself; excessive self-love

What is the US Ambassador saying about this type of democracy?

Sent from my iPad using Thaivisa Connect Thailand

Silently wishing they could get away with things like this,

Who says they don't?

Most likely who Thais jearnt from,

Can someone tell me what Yingluck is looking at in the OP picture ? Can't be a source of drinking water.

Looks like a cess pit where her cronies hang out,

What is "Paddy"?

In relation to what is mentioned in this post.

Paddy is a rice growing paddock.

Paddy is an Irish person

Most prob'ly Swampy may be designated airforce base, or under their jurisdiction.

THAKSIN has much to answer for,

His sister and their avaricious co-horts as well.

And the 2 pax would have had no idea they were in an illegal taxi. Oh well it worked out Ok for them, no injuries, and on their way with a smile

Wonder if the driver owned the illegal taxi.

Likely not so.......

The real question is......

Is he really two metres tall?

Good 6'2".

Clean as a whistle, tourist police must have corrupted him.

hub of surrogate mothers, well there is a business model... how did they get their name on the birth certificate as father (not married with thai woman) and how can those babies leave thailand (passport, authorisation from mother....)

big lawyer business setup me thinks

and, how much was it ?

Quite obviously, you have NOT READ the full post, the original article.

Go read.

Yingluck to farmers: "I feel your pain."

Yeah, rite.

All the best Don , I used to enjoy Dons Cafe........Thailand is a place to never forget where you come from as the Thais will NEVER let you forget.

I would never invest another baht in this place and bitterly regred the decades spent/wasted here in hindsight

Great to catch up with Don.

Must have visited "Don's " many times during my visits to Chalong.

He had a great café, ambience to die for.

Maximilien François Robespierre, Thailand NEEDS your expertise, HELP.

He is an Australian, wotya expect.....LOL

Would this include Kiwis and Ockors?

Be under no illusion the Phuket Tourist Police and the volunteers who worked with Halpin knew exactly what he was up to. If they didn't they should be made resign. I believe he was a topic of conversation on many occasions with the Hon Consuls with regards to shaking down tourists. He was brash and brazen because he thought he was a protected species. Many reported him but nothing was done. He lived a life of plenty with no apparent income? Prior to working with the Volunteers he barely scraped a living.

What crap.

Garry was part owner of a dive business in Chalong.

I do notknow if he is still involved, but presumes so.

My last bottle of "Johnnie Walker Red"had never seen Scotland!Wont be long before we see people die from Illicit alcohol brews.

Already happening in Indonesia, soon here too.

Dont marry some poor Isaan girl who's familly grows rice ,then it goes as far as your wife and children ,sorry if this seems harsh but its the truth and sometimes it hurts.

Don't foget wifey's, mama's sick buffalo'

I had type 2 diabetes about 2.5 years ago, and the only thing that I did was got out any refined sugars, rice, pasta, white bread, cereals and started more excercising. for breakfast I would have my normal breakfast of eggs and a piece of whole wheat bread. My diabetic clinic told me not to drink any type of juices or banana's. Now 2.5 years later I have lost 55kgs and no longer have high blood sugar. Hope this helps

Bloody hell, 55kg is a whole Thai person. You managed to get rid of a whole Thai!

Hmmmmmmm, one way to get rid of wifey.

"Officer 1,274" - does anyone have any idea what exactly is the occupation of "officer?"

Possibly, Tourist Police.

I guess the relevant mafias will share out tea monies and business will be back as usual.

Given the quality of the Internet on land here I'm sceptical as to how good it will be at 40,000 feet.

It should be better, after all your closer to the satellite...

Agreed but if it's anything like True Visions it will suffer terribly from rain fade,heavy cloud cover and sun outages.

Thai may not be the brightest lot of fliers, but how much cloud and rain will there be at 40,000 feet?

Sun outages, all nite flights I reckon.

Methinks Stoneyboy needs to get real.

I tried again, it's doing the same thing. Taking me to the landing page and not opening, doesn't matter, I got the gist of the story from the link that SE posted.

Same here, I think it is Yahoo causing the problem.

I agree, some sentences are racially unfair, and biased against the poorer population.
