This news article MUST make the rounds in western countries. Let future visitors know about the utter contempt the Thai government has for them. Perhaps it would serve as a valuable lesson to these idiots in power if the tourist streams from Europe would come to a halt as well.

 

But then again, by tomorrow this twit of a minister will sheepishly announce (not by himself but through a spokesperson, of course) that it was all a "misunderstanding."     

...and we can breathe easy.

You never know when you're going to get raped, and I'm sure you rape so easily.

I am going to get a farang pink ID card...Should sort the ploblem..

Yeah it is useful. I just bought a new truck and new bike with one the last couple of weeks.

That's great! I didn't know it doubled as a credit card with a high enough limit to buy two vehicles.

I'm off to the BMW showroom in a minute.

Many of the tourists arrived onshore on bicycles from the cruise ships and were going to pedal round the town of Nathon.

They must have been hoping to get a good price for them.

They didn't spot me having a high temperature. Mind you, I did have a bag of ice cubes down my trousers.

Turns out that the mechanic needed the fire brigade before attempting a repair would be my advice for any leaking gas tanks after my near incident a few weeks ago????

I don't know, but will the fire brigade come out if there's not a fire in progress?

If 5G is ever implemented, they will be cutting down all the trees.  For those who survive the microwaves at that time, I suggest you get into the timber industry because you will make a killing!!!

Hmm, not a coincidence to have 'killing' and 'microwave' in the same sentence.

I got a litre of isopropyl locally online last week, so it seems that they do seem to sell it.

I take it you didn't order it between 2pm and 5pm.

Oddly, there's a different story in The Telegraph, saying he was reported as dying, then the Chinese media deleted their story, saying he was fighting for his life:

Of course they are. You can buy sanitary towels nearly everywhere.

First thing he asked was, what financial benefit is in it for me.

You can't be wrong there, as big P must have very little knowledge of the new technology.

The commission takes into account the benefits that the state and the people will receive from structural changes in the country in terms of production, finance, politics, public health and agriculture.

I really don't see how 5G is going to be that much better than the 4G we already have for any of the above, especially given the enormous expense of the infrastructure needed plus the health worries regarding the microwave frequencies it will be using.
