Four million Russians? No wonder they are losing the war, when so many of their best and finest (i.e. thugs and criminals) hightail it to Thailand.

Apparently some of the conscripts still receive some sort of training first, but it seems that most of them are shipped off to the front right away and thrown to the lions.

Go Ukraine, kick the Orcs out of your country, and make it hurt!

Apparently Putin is going to try to do what Stalin did in WWII: throw massive numbers of soldiers into the battle and win just by sheer numbers. But the sentiment back then was completely different, as it was clear to all Russians that the very existence of Russia was at stake if they didn’t manage to defeat the Germans, so the willingness to fight and possibly die for the motherland was very high. This time around, it is all about the megalomania of Putin and his clique of fascists, and it’s quite obvious that the willingness to fight is not exactly there, as we witness many Russians fleeing their country so as not to become cannon fodder.

From at least the 15th floor, just to make sure…..

Not just condemned, but brought before a court and sentenced to be put in prison in solitary confinement for the rest of their sorry lives.

You can not believe in Karma and at the same time care about a country that’s been brutally invaded by Russia?

In this Karma is probably coming back to bite them in the @ss, then.

Have you spent any time in Thailand at all? Myanmar? Laos? Vietnam? All countries with unelected regimes that don’t shy away from violence if necessary. As for the hypocrisy, again: have you spent any time in Thailand at all?

Because maybe some day the shoe is on the other foot? What if China decided to invade Thailand? Wouldn’t it be nice if other countries came to your rescue?

Yeah, right. Do you really believe that?

That’s how it works here: pick some unlucky guy (probably someone who refused to pay off those higher up in the chain) and go after him, to show the public that they are really doing something against corruption. But at the same there are thousands (if not tens of thousands) of other corrupt cops and government officials who are left untouched and they can enjoy the fruits of their corruption in peace.

I wonder if this is an example of a ‘token bust’? Because I would be very surprised if he didn’t have a little something something stashed away somewhere safe for a rainy day. And by a little something something I mean enough to live on for a long time, so millions and millions of baht. It’s no wonder Thai men want to join the RTP: guys like this show that if you apply yourself and work hard at being the meanest and dirtiest of the mess that is the RTP, you can work your way up and become filthy rich. Joining the army and becoming a general is, of course, another way to go to reach that same goal.

More like brain failure.

Who said I pay tea money? But plenty of people do. And it’s so nice to see someone identify themselves as ‘genuine people’, whatever that may mean.

Even if there were, they wouldn’t do anything, because Thai cops don’t give a rat’s @ss about traffic safety, they only see traffic as a source of income.

Wow, looks like some of the worst bush tracks I have seen in Africa in the rainy season.

Maybe add a few: Don’t drink and drive. Don’t text (or use your phone in any way) and drive. Pay attention to the road in front of you when you drive. For stick shift cars: the brake pedal is the middle one. For automatic cars: the brake pedal is the one on the left. Most importantly: you are not infinitely more important than everyone else on the road.

Many Russians scrambling to get out of the country, rush on tickets out of Russia after Putin’s speech. Can’t say that I blame them for trying to escape Russia and not become cannon fodder for the Russian army in Ukraine.

Yes, they sure are. Unfortunately for them, they live in a country with an evil dictator, supported by a clan of billionaire kleptocrats who don't give a hoot how they make their money.

Quite right. Thailand would invite Satan himself for a nice vacation if he paid enough.

Let’s get more of these Panzerhaubitze to the Ukraine army! And much more advanced weaponry in general, they make such a difference!
