The defamation laws were written by sold out cowards, to protect rotten players from reprisals, due to bad service, faulty products and bad business. They have no place in today's world. They represent a heinous over reach of toxic power. 

 

Thailand deserves whatever comes its way as a result of this. Those insane and cowardly defamation laws have been around way too long. They were written and passed by sold out politicians, for men who sell inferior products, offer inferior services, and steal alot of money. And do not intend to be answerable to anyone. Perhaps some of that will change. 

 

For those of us who have been here a awhile, we know that positive change only happens here through utter embarrassment, humiliation, and a loss of face. It never happens because it is the right thing to do, or due to fairness or equity. So, it must be thrust upon them. Egg on the face can be a cure for many diseases and weaknesses. 

 

 

O spider that was really nasty, don't you know that "justice" will be handed out in the next life? If any of the people mentioned ever thought of the karma they are creating surely they would be a little bit humble?

I think that Thai Immigration do this just to "muddy" the waters and to keep long term expats in a state of confusion! Perish the thought that they might decide to move to a more friendly country??

This happened now.  Not 50 years ago.  That's why people have a problem with it.  People don't go around with their t*ts out anymore.

And the problem is what??? An abuse of public decency?? Every woman and most old men have large boobs!

Cleared the hang-up! if the barrel was at 45 degrees the projectiles might have landed in Pattaya?? 5555!

So... none of you retirees are thinking that the photo requirements added to "copies of your home bank statement showing your income " for the last 12 months, so that they can see how you pay your B 65K a month into your Thai bank account means nothing???

Can't you see the thin edge of the wedge? If "they" know what your real income is do you think "they" wont make it a percentage of that income a requirement for a RV?? 

Water, straight from the cold bottle! My preferred tipple is from a 1 1/2 litre, about 3 bottles a day!

Like it or not, any party  wanting to change LM is going to be under threat of a Coup....that's just the way the ball bounces!

Doesn't the Law allow workers as young as 16 in Pattaya? It seems obvious that certain "licences" have not been obtained every month! Tsk tsk!

Why don't the Bolt drivers get licences, it's just laziness or are all of the cars owned by one entity??

It sounds like she's happy. 

Many cultures allow even younger women to enter into "relationships"! If she and her friends are happy then what is  the problem?? My wife of 54 years was told that she was too old at 17 to get a reasonable husband (Northern Vietnam) and was forced to marry at 18 to an Officer who had been serving overseas (spoiled goods) and was told that it was her last chance! Ignore the "blue noses"!

Please! By telling people where the best place is it will be immediately spoiled by an influx of visitors????

Thank you very much for this information, I often visit from up country and 2nd hand books are my favourite shopping task! If you know any more please don't hesitate to PM me!!

Thanks rooster, it's good you didn't stay too long in Sydney!

Or until such time as he comes up with sufficient tea money.

Not this time! I don't think he should make plans for the next 20-30 years!

It's ok for you young blokes but what about us more senior citizens who have to click back to 1945!!!!! It'd be nice if they just allowed us to enter the DOB?

Only 60 years in? Get some time up, you're a tourist....76 for me! I'm jealous of your Thai language!

Bang Sue, where is that in Isaan????????????

I hope it's near Phrae???

I wear my mask every day... I hook one end around one ear put it on my head and then hook the other end around my other ear...it makes a good sun hat when I'm out walking!

In Oz we allowed 12mm per day no matter how large the storage or how deep! It adds up to a lot of water...that's why we have "pool covers"!
