  1. IIRC legalising gay marriage was one of the promises of PTP when forming an alliance with MFP. Based upon recent events I would say that PTP is unlikely to keep to their promise now that they are allied to the dinosaur parties.
  2. From the linked article ... Thamanat Prompow, Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister ffs
  3. Q: Why are women and children evacuated first in a disaster? A: So that the men can think of a solution in silence.
  4. Sad news Owl. I hope she will realise the error of her ways and you can save the rest of the farm. Good Luck!
  5. They're worried that some imposter might pay your wife's bill. 555
  6. My wife (Thai) and I each have a WISE account. Apart from the initial setting up of our accounts, neither of us has had to verify anything. I (mainly) use my account to satisfy the "long term stay in Thailand" rules (at least 65,000 THB each month) and my transfer to Bangkok Bank always arrives at 2.00pm the next working day. My wife transfers money, using the "tuition fees" option, the money arrives within seconds. We are both transferring monies from UK pension payments which have been deposited directly into our WISE accounts. Our joint and individual bank accounts have been closed by Barclay's, because we don't have a UK address, so WISE has been a godsend for us.
  7. I guess his only excuse could be that he was carried away in the moment.
  8. From the linked report we know it was "yellow" and "toxic-looking". Brilliant investigative journalism.
  9. They don't give a damn about the public. But, yes plenty are naive. My wife is very happy that they are all forgiving each other so they can work together for the good of the country. I'm tired of trying to explain the truth to her.
  10. If my maths is correct the daily average over 30 years would be about 90M3 (90,000L3 )
  11. That makes the price of a 4L box around 3,400baht - Yikes!
  12. 1L Bells whisky just over 500baht, with schweppes ginger ale. 1L Kulov vodka just over 400baht, with orange juice or cranberry. Yes, I know, not exactly top quality spirits, but they do the job for me.
  13. I'd be a lot happier in the remaining years of my life if voluntary euthanasia or assisted suicide was available here. The prospect of losing my marbles and being a drain on my family terrifies me, and DIY suicide can go horribly wrong. Dying with some dignity would be my choice.
