27 minutes ago, Denim said:It means individual police officers , using their position as government employees , have taken out private loans to buy cars and homes etc but are struggling to make repayments having bitten off more than they can chew.
not the police force as such.
@denim--Yes you are correct. Firstly they have to pay a fairly large fee to even enter the force. As gov't employees they can borrow sums much larger than their incomes support. Hence the heavy handed fining system at road blocks or anywhere else they can get involved. My sister in-law did exactly that. Within weeks of getting the job she borrowed her tits off , new car, old loans paid off etc. I know she has borrowed $ from madam to make payments a few times. All a gov't job in Tland provides is unlimited borrowing power.

What's mind-boggling is that the western countries are spearheading this mass murderous psychosis. It's not tin-pot dictatorships, it's the countries who purport to be the world leaders of freedom and democracy...UK, Oz, Canada, NZ, USA, Europe. I had to flee Canada. If I were still there I would be unable to leave. Somebody pinch me please and wake me up from this nightmare!
I left CDA in 2004 to retire here. I can't believe how gullible Canadians are. They re-elected in Turdeau 3 times? <deleted> is happening? Their leader has never held a real job.
He's a trust fund baby and doesn't give a fiddlers ---- about the people. He's got them on the run..imagine wearing a mask when driving alone in your own car? I would never have taken the sax if it were not being able to renew my visa. Dystopian CDA. It's not perfect here but a lot better than my sister in Niagara. I ain't never going back..

I found Shopee to take too long on delivery - order to door....
Only COD when I order - still have cash stuck in Lazada's wallet from orders the sellers dropped....
Probably at 90%+ Lazada versus Shopee....I will cross check against the other on items that I am unsure of what a reasonable price is....
I'd rather shop locally - Thailand available over feeding China's engine but they're avoiding disclosure of origin... With Shopee there's little doubt of origin....
I've been fooling around with Lazada for 3 days trying to access funds in my wallet. Now a foreigner can access the wallet where previously you couldn't. When I called they said simply apply to activate your wallet...thats where the fun began..still trying

Better to set new goals so that the government can gloss over the fact that the old goals were never met. Thailand joins the global symphony of politicians benchmarking new targets that will never be achieved and with dates pushed out far enough that the lying politicians won't have to justify the future failures because they will be retired or dead.
Aussie, You are correct sir. None of the climate zealots predictions have become true to date. "Wrong Again: 50 Years of Failed Eco-pocalyptic Predictions " This headline is very easy to find..a quick google search will show exactly how wrong they,ve proven to be.
IE: The push for electric vehicles needs a lot of infrastructure work like charging options, power grid limitations on and on.

I know of noone who has or had the so called wuflu. I changed my mind when they target 5 year olds . ONLY if they threaten to deport will I consider taking endless shots? what for?

I would say if it has a Honda engine on it should be ok ,just make sure it is not a Chines copy .
That Hyundai will do the job a 7.5hp engine will have all the power you will ever need ,coming from South Korea it should be of good quality.
Yes if it has a Honda motor it's best. Problem is how can you tell if it's not a Chinese copy? What do you look for? Thanks

I've used "Caverjet" injections (but I don't know if they're available here) - and it doesn't fail to give a rock-hard result -
1. but sometimes it can be painful: making it next to useless, and
2. sometimes it feels very unnatural: making it very unsatisfactory, and
3. sometimes it does work well.
So, in all: not cheap and mixed results.
Good luck.
I ended up getting some from a guy i n the Phillipines.It was expensive. Sticking a needle in your penis is not fun. It didn't work every time and you've got to get it exactly in the right spot. Once I inserted the needle too far it it caused minor bleeding. It produced a semi erection that felt like a "rubber banana" 555
I finally gave up and tossed the whole lot out. It usually was painful most time ( injecting)
I'd love to get some of that cream to try out.

Dropped out of high school to join the Navy. Served 6 years most of it on submarines.
Worked at a smelly pulp mill on the west coast of Canada for exactly 30 yrs. Stationary Engineer. Retired at 55 moved to LOS and started working O&G off/on for 6-7 yrs (Safety Officer) and now happily retired here.
The mill work provided a decent pension. No regrets but 30 yrs of <deleted> shift work takes its toll.

1 hour ago, CM Dad said:"Many chronic diseases"??? Only two were mentioned and both probably caused by his obesity, As for his cataract surgery, that is a common problem many face as they age, I have had cataract surgery on both eyes and neither time was my eye so sloppily bandaged, His arrival at court was staged theatrics and all for show.
I agree, actually it's comical to imagine his aides slapping on the bandage in the parking lot. What a farce.How dumb do they think people are? Here is a so called captain of industry levelled to a common crook. They should add on several years of jail time for bad acting on the jail term he'll never serve.

Just another way of controlling everyone and everything, creating a myriad of rules and regulations and then bribing cops to ignore them or fining people for breaking them.
Correct Safety, It's all about control. This new controlling gov't won't be giving you your freedom back any time soon. Same picture around the world. Our basic rights and freedoms are forfitted via Covid (protection) they're doing this to protect you from CV. 555

Don’t do it. They are hideous. Tried last year and spoiled Christmas dinner.. subsequently tried Thai raised fresh Turkey and that was a major disappointment as well. I am going to try goose or ham this year.
Here's what I do. Get a pre cooked chicked from Makro, Make or buy stuffing/dressing, mashed spuds,gravy and cranberry sauce. You should be able to get 2 meals from that for under 500 baht. It works for me. I've been to local places that sell Thanksgiving turkey dinners and they shredded the meat?? yuk

We had ceiling fans fitted in the living room and the master bedroom when our house was built 15 years ago. We don't use them very much, our floor-standing fans give much more cooling and can be directed where they are needed. I wouldn't bother if I were you.
I agree, when we bought our house the previous owner installed them in every room. We never use them, totally useless. Wall and floor mount fans wotk the best for us.

It seems like your life is being limited by ham radio. Obviously it's something you love. I am just curious, if you like talking to people around the world, isn't the internet sufficient. Is it like a trip back in time or does it have some other appeal.
My only experience with ham is when in the early 70s I was in the RCN on a diesel sub on the surface off the coast of California . The chief radioman was a ham operator as a hobby.I gave him my parents ph.# in central Canada . In a few minutes he called me to the radio room and there was my old mom on the line..lol trying to explain to her where I was exactly.
Quite exciting in a way.

Do not go to Thailand unless you must. No need to visit this dry caliphate devoid of tourist infrastructure. Go elsewhere, or be prepared to have your year ruined.

We bought a new Yaris mid range a couple months ago for 600k.
Used it for a few local trips and very happy with it.
I considered 1-2 to yo with low mileage but decided the savings for used just wasn't worth it.
You can't tell if the odo has been tampered with.
When I was a teen my buddy's dad had a used car lot. Every couple months someone would come by and ask which cars they wanted done. He had several tools wrapped up in a cloth.
Some looked like dental picks etc. This was decades before digital.

23 hours ago, spidermike007 said:Social media is too great a force now, and opening without any nightlife, is a misplaced, misguided, and overly puritanical sentiment. ALL tourists want some nightlife. Expect 20,000 tourists in November, 30,000 in December, and 50,000 during what used to be known as "peak season".
It feels like willful sabotage. You cannot kill tourism more effectively, if you were doing it deliberately. Therefore, the verdict is in. They are trying to reduce the industry to ashes, and rebuild it in their own image. That of saints, sages and holy Buddhists. Put all the bars, nightclubs, go-go's, and related businesses out of business entirely. Then rebuild the industry as a Disneyworld, family type attraction. Pure as winter snow.
Of course we all know this will be a dismal failure. I expect no more than 4-5 million tourists a year, 5-10 years from now, and for that trend of diminishing arrivals to continue, for the next 50 years. News bulletin! They killed the golden goose.
It is time to admit that the tourism industry has been sabotaged to the point where it will never recover, to any meaningful extent. Ever. Decades from now it will be limping along, and thousands of large hotels will either be closed, or they will attempt to convert them into low priced condos. Eventually many will be razed to the ground. Trillions of dollars in tourism infrastructure down the toilet. Prayuth, Phiphat will go down in history as the men who destroyed the Thai economy, and set the nation on a scorched earth path toward a position of 80th in the world, in GDP, and a dramatic decline of the standard of living, for all but him, his cronies, and the very rich.
I suppose time will tell how how your predictions turn out. I've spent countless hours warming a bar stool over the years. My last fave was the "Bodega" bar on the corner on Soi Post Office and 2nd rd Pattaya. I used to meet a mate of mine there every day at 5pm for happy hour. We guzzled beer and people watched . Very entertaining if you have a brain the size of a pea. In today's world I'd probably never go back . Pattaya will lose all the things that attracted me here in the 1st place. I still live in Pattaya but am content to forgo the night life at this stage. My adventure started in 1990 and I'm all out of hot rod gaskets , not that I need them . 71 yo next b/d. It's been quite a ride to say the least.

I'm thinking the cops will get the dead mans family to ask for restitution and then split it with the family! TIT

I notice some enterprising Thai's selling quality seeds on FB. It's possible to grow your own these days. Everything you need is on Lazada and Shopee. All you require is an unused shower room are large closet...for an indoor tent. They say the hardest part here is keeping the temps reasonable . A/C is a must.
