Perhaps he is happier in the company of his family rather than that of coup makers and countries leaders, who speak different things out of both sides of their their mouths. As for ASEAN, all they are is an expensive talking shop. They have NEVER been a doing shop. They must always end in a face saving compromise. If Thailand wants to support China or the USA it is up to them. What they cannot do is support both China and the USA equally. It has to be one side, or the other, or neither. IMHO, the time for fence sitting is over.

It will only apply to the opposition parties. The PPRP, BJT, the minnow parties and the Democrats (perhaps), will have the Nelson telescope applied.

Assuming that you actually have a phone banking app. I do all my bank stuff on my pc.

Actually there is no "WE", but there is you, and if you believe that you are speaking of most people worldwide, then you are completely wrong. You are certainly not speaking for me. The only lessons that EX president Trump could give is how to spin 30,xxx lies in 4 years, and how to lose an election.

A link to the ships of the Ukrainian Navy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_active_Ukrainian_Navy_ships I am not sure how a Ukrainian Navy could sail undetected by anybody. It would have to sail through the Black Sea, through the Bospherus Straights, Istanbul, through the sea of Marmara, into the Mediterranean sea, through the Straights of Gibraltar, into the Atlantic, the Bay of Biscay, and either through the English Channel into the North Sea, or around Ireland and back into the North Sea, through the Straights of Denmark and then into the Baltic Sea. The Ukraine doesn't actually have ANY submarines or depot ships so they would have to use surface ships along with supply ships and it would take a fair amount of time to get there. Not to mention applying for permissions from various countries whose waters they would travel through.

OTOH they may have done it themselves to throw suspicion onto the West and the USA in particular.

And if so are they the "best before" dates?

In Thailand it is the guy with the most guns, the same in Myanmar.

IIRC a squeezy/squirty bottle of water with some ammonia in it is a fair response to a soi dog attack. The %age of water to ammonia is a trial by error, too much and you could blind the dog, not enough and it would be a waste of time as the dog will still bite you. I think that after a while the dogs will get to know you , leave you alone and find an easier target.

The UK was declining long before the 2008 crisis and has continued since then. There does not seem to be ANY political party in the UK who is capable in any way to restoring the UK to as it was perhaps 40 years ago. I could go back to the 1960s when the unions were dictating to the Labour government what they wanted and that they would make it happen going back to Harold Wilson's first government. You would have to go back to 1905 to 1922 when the last Liberal government was in power. Since 1922 there has always been either a Conservative or Labour government apart from WW2 which was mostly Conservative even then. Since then it has been Buggin's turn next between both parties. Each has promised many things and both lots have failed the UK people. Soon it will be Buggin's turn again for a while. Will it be any better than it is now. IMHO, yes for some and not really for the majority. If only there was a spot on the ballot paper saying "I wouldn't vote for any of them". That would be a sure fire winner.

Actually Thailand has as many choices as the current government will allow

Thursday afternoon close to 2 pm.

Would that be because Gordon Brown did so well with the UK when he was Chancellor and PM, before Labour was booted out the last time? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premiership_of_Gordon_Brown Do you remember this? https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-politics-24173270 As outgoing chief secretary to the Treasury following Labour's defeat in the 2010 general election, Liam Byrne famously left a note to his successor saying: "Dear Chief Secretary, I'm afraid that there is no money. Kind regards and good luck." https://www.buzzfeed.com/emilyashton/byrne-baby-byrne When Liberal Democrat MP David Laws became Treasury chief secretary in May 2010, his new private secretary handed him a sealed envelope. “Here’s something your predecessor left for you,” the civil servant said. Laws opened it with interest. “Dear Chief Secretary,” he read. “I’m afraid that there is no money. Kind regards and good luck! Liam.” Five years on, the hastily scrawled missive from Labour frontbencher Liam Byrne is still dominating the political agenda. For the Tories and Liberal Democrats, it's the perfect symbol of Labour’s supposed spending spree in office, which, they say, hugely inflated the deficit and precipitated the financial crisis. The note is mentioned by David Cameron and Nick Clegg in speech after speech, ministers relentlessly refer to it on TV, and parliamentary candidates rail against it at public meetings. The Conservatives never miss a chance to tweet about it. And you think that Labour should be back in power?

It worked back then but it is a bit dirty now. Rinse and repeat.

The time to do this is when reforms and corruption in the police, military and civil service are fixed and projects like this can invest ALL of its budget on the project and NOT lose 30% or more to corruption.

Why are you living in Thailand then?

But not so happy when other people have different opinions to yours.

The second of three identical posts. I am sorry for these.

No. Most Thais at least in rural Thailand aren't bothered about it and there is nothing in it for the police, so they don't bother either. The Immigration people know but aren't interested either.

The only times that I wear longs is at my visa extension renewal and funerals or weddings, otherwise I always wear shorts. Around the house I don't wear a shirt. If I go off site then I wear a shirt.

IMHO, Thaksin would be welcomed in Thailand and be a far better alternative than the current mob who, over the course of the last 8 years, have led Thailand into the twilight zone and disaster area. This is, of course why he is the current government's #1 bogey man. Really? If Thaksin were in Thailand were in Thailand and there was a relatively free and fair election, who do you think would win it? Thaksin and his party, or Prayuth and the PPRP. Please remember that our opinions don't count, as only Thais can vote.

Yet another party hopping dinosaur at 69 years old, wanting to be the next PM with his minnow party.
