  1. Hard to believe there was any speeding involved with so many roads under construction in Pattaya! I can hardly get up to 30 km/h most days around the city! LOL
  2. Exactly! As far as social media being judge and jury, that's an just an unfortunate thing now days! Most people don't want to find the facts for themselves, easier to just go along with whatever social media you follow is saying.
  3. That's good advice! Keep your head on a swivel over here! Things coming at you from all directions and all different speeds!
  4. Noooo, this wouldn't happen in Thailand, no way! (insert sarcasm here), for those that don't get it.
  5. This is a perfect example of why you should "keep your head under the radar" in Thailand; pop your head up and bad things happen! And also, not be so cocky and disrespect/assault the locals, especially when you're in the wrong.
  6. Seen this a lot with Thai familes; they think it's a good idea for family members to live together--family stays close......I don't think so! My extended family only comes to visit every once in a while---like every couple of years, a lot better in my opinion.
  7. More brown envelopes makes most things easy here!
  8. Yes, and stupid family also; just so there's no confusion on here, she admits it.
  9. Because it gives you time to pay people off to get the sentence reduced. Fact, had a family member go thru this process, he had 3 opportunities to "make things right" but unfortunately for him, didn't have the cash to make things happen so went to prison for the full term. He didn't serve the full term as he got off for good behavior but could've been a lot less time to start with.
  10. I've always had good luck with these. I get about 10-15 years out of one, and our water is very alkaline so that takes some life out of them. I added a pressure tank on this last one, so the pump starts/stops less but runs longer which should be better for it.
  11. Obviously he didn't spread the brown envelopes around enough......or maybe not at all! Maybe the higher ups were pissed off they didn't get it before he did, that would piss some people off! I've heard of people getting less for murder, rape of children, etc, he just embezzled money........hmmmmm.
  12. The land of endless postponements.........especially if you've got the cash!
  13. Brown envelopes make a LOT of things "legal"!
  14. They've taken on a tough task, especially on that street! Between the girls being Buddhist and the farangs wanting alcohol and Thai pussy, can't see them making much headway! They really don't have much to offer the people that frequent that soi!
  15. He needed to get back to his house to start stuffing more of those brown envelopes! Probably not that easy to do in the hospital with all the staff around!
  16. When in the last 5-10 years has it been smooth flowing........even on a normal day?! Maybe since I live here and am not a visitor it doesn't flow smoothly for me! LOL
  17. Even though it seems like it was the Thai guy's fault, more than likely there will be people trying to "influence" the Kuwaiti into paying for the hospital and possibly buying the Thai guy a new sidecar. "You have money, you rich, he no have money, he's poor, help him out." I can hear it already.
  18. Banned for life from all airlines, compensation to passengers/airline for any and all delays or missed flights--and yes, including the extra fuel used. This BS has got to stop, people need to be taught how to behave out in society, obviously this guy wasn't taught much as a child. Once the bans start people will realize there are consequences to their actions and planes will be a safer and more enjoyable environment.
  19. Was there ever any doubt he wouldn't have an ankle bracelet, be serious! I agree with bokningar; this is one of the many reasons Thailand can never move up on the world stage, hard to take them serious with blantant/rampant corruption going on!
  20. Shouldn't the headline read, "Thaksin to walk free from the hospital on Sunday"?
  21. Sorry but they only give one copy and that goes to immigration, I don't keep a copy of it. It's just a year long statement of all transactions, mine doesn't have many as it's a fixed account and nothing moves in/out of it, I only keep it for the visa extension.
  22. I've always provided this--from Kasikorn, for many years with no issues.
  23. It's just the way it is, but I wonder why it's not for individuals 60+ and why it won't work for those previously infected. I'm above sixty and have had dengue once and obviously don't want to get it again. I keep reading these articles hoping they come up with a vaccine which will work for ALL cases.
