  1. It is vice and it is taxed by the police. That being said soi 3 and soi 11 are full of foreigners who aren't necessarily drug addled whore loving degenerate nihilists - although many are. On a positive I think it is good that it is restricted to the scum-bag red light district. Sure some sex tourists may be bothered by some smirking black people that make them feel scared, but probably the same amount of fear that is felt by a tweaking drug user when he sees some aggressive whore-mongering johns spilling out into the street. It really is a slippery slope.

  2. the sad thing - the amount paid out to the officers family was truly a pittance..

    It's not surprising that he will not be punished, the the whole sequence of events was over the top even for Thai standards. Especially once the cocaine usage came to light (for a week only?) and then disappeared again. Ah well one of many evading justice.. Mean while innocent people are locked up for LM charges, Karen activist "Billy" is still disappeared, those grandparents are locked up for picking mushrooms, Cambodians are being burned alive on the border.. an so on. Human rights still have a long way to go, as well as the value of a life. Not sure how this will come about, but perhaps a constructive dialogue may contribute to positive change. Sadly it seems if these cases do not involve money, importance, or influence, they just don't register as important.. not with the government, and not with the public majority as well it seems.

  3. many Thai women are independent and full of money and are not looking to defraud foreigners of their stuff.

    That doesn't mean many ignorant foreign men come here and get easy <deleted> through money / money related stuff. these people often get a reality check sooner or later

  4. As a fluent Thai speaker, you should translated the relevant documents for your friend. And don't be so hard on the colonel, he is on a paltry salary and they have to purchase those uniforms themselves!

    Moral of the story, what the christ have you be doing for twenty years? You think you would have at least a beginners grasp of things. If you are serious about pursuing this issue - may consider getting some people to take care of it on your behalf.

  5. Where is Yoovidhya cash at? (Red Bull), and since when is Heinecke a Thai national? Also the Juangrongruangkit people.. (Summit).. misleading list as some of these fortunes must be split through to multiple heirs or just hack reporting/research.

    These old Chinese got some sick $.

    Also.. pretty sure theres another individual that controls a very large fortune that was left off that list

  6. กทม thread. Bangkok !

    Here is the full name (big letters, in black) of Bangkok, as well as the explanation of the meaning in both Thai and English. Reading it straight through in Thai can be a challenge, mostly due to Sanskrit and Bali roots.

    Here is some more info : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangkok

    Also please note all this crap is pasted from elsewhere, I am just relaying it here biggrin.png

    กรุงเทพมหานคร อมรรัตนโกสินทร์ มหินทรายุธยา

    City of Angels, Great City of Immortals,

    มหาดิลกภพ นพรัตนราชธานีบูรีรมย์
    สง่างามด้วยแก้ว ๙ ประการ และเป็นที่ประทับของพระเจ้าแผ่นดิน
    Magnificient City of the Nine Gems, Seat of the King,

    อุดมราชนิเวศน์มหาสถาน อมรพิมานอวตารสถิต สักกะทัตติยวิษณุกรรมประสิทธิ์
