  1. He may not have to wear a helmet, but wearing one may result in less serious injuries.
  2. Maybe if whoever stacked/dumped the pallets there had stacked them properly and clear of the road, the accident may not have happened.
  3. But do you think that Putin really cares about that?
  4. Whilst I sort of agree with you, ANY nuclear strike by Russia on any NATP country (should) be followed by a massive nuclear strike and make Russia uninhabitable for the majority of the population. I can see 2 big problems. 1 Putin is quite old and may come to the conclusion that he will die soon anyway, so why not take the nuclear option and many millions more people with him? 2 The other problem is that with Trump taking over in the USA, nobody has any idea (probably Trump also) what the US response will be. The US will probably try to remain neutral, until the US forces are attacked directly on the ground, at sea or on the US mainland. That will be a major problem for Trump. Whether to aid his allies or his enemies. It may also cause a problem in the Middle East between Israel and all the Arab states around them, which may also go nuclear.
  5. Perhaps developing the network as standard gauge, instead of the 1 metre gauge the the network currently is would be a good idea.
  6. I first read about it on AN months ago when Mike Lister first started the thread.
  7. So let the dogs bite you, and perhaps you WILL have something to moan about.
  8. And how would you do that from your hospital bed?
  9. Has anybody asked you or forced you to donate to him? If not, what is your problem?
  10. I went to the tax office in Kamphaeng Phet yesterday with my Thai wife on a similar task. That office said to come back after January 1st with a 12 month bank statement and they coud proceed from there. As my wife did all the talking, I have no idea if they speak English.
  11. Perhaps you could use a mixture of water and ammonia.
  12. As opposed to being bitten by dogs.
  13. Send the bill to the military who overthrew both Thaksin and Yingluck with illegal military coups, but make sure that the military leaders persona;;y pay for it.
  14. So why did you bother to read the post and comment on it.
  15. OTOH I am rarely amazed by the comments, just by the number of miseryguts that show up.
  16. The people that donate to these go fund me schemes are never forced to donate. You either give or don't give, very few people know who or how much was donated and generally if you donate nobody will know who or how much.
  17. Why? Nobody is forcing you to donate.
  18. Could YOUR parents come up with 30k overnight? What should happen is the the person who hit him. their insurance company SHOULD pay up automatically and quickly. That assumes that the other driver had proper insurance. If he didn't have proper insurance. then the onus for the payment is on him. However TiT.
  19. Please explain when the Ukraine invaded Russia, compared with Putin's claim that it would be all over in 2 weeks, as the Russians were invading the Ukraine. I want to see how you can twist that 180 degrees.
  20. Thank you for the links.
  21. Was anything actually proven? Do you have a link for that?
  22. You would prefer Zelensky to be jailed for life for defending his country, but fail to mention Putin, who is far far worse, and started the war in the first place. Biased much?
  23. If Thaksin was born in Thailand of a Thai mother, then he is Thai. The government CANNOT strip Thaksin of his Thai citizenship and make him stateless as that is against Thai and international law.
  24. If these neo-nasties are so brave, why are they wearing masks?
  25. When I go to the local pharmacy, the lady comes from behind the counter and helps me down the 3 steps and I get a genuine smile. The post office manager does the same for me when I simply buy a bottle of OTOP honey. The staff in the local supermarket ask what I want and fetch it for me. To me it is like the UK used to be 50 or 60 years ago. To me (at 80) the Thai people are always kind, helpful and smile genuine smiles. Perhaps because I am old, perhaps because I live in rural Thailand and not in a tourist area. Perhaps because I am polite, smile a lot and try to speak Thai if I can. I have no idea, but I am grateful and thankful for the attention.
