Further right the better as far as I'm concerned, but I've seen nothing to convince me that this country is far right. I'm convinced the UK id far left, but I think Thailand is slightly right-leaning at most.

Translation: "America is on a clear way to not being able to rely on votes from illegal immigrants".

She'll be promoting Thailand's soft power to the UK's soft in the head PM.

James "Do you know who I am?" Corden, so-called actor and all-round nasty basket. Still, as London Mayor, he has to be an improvement on the present incumbent. At least Corden's English.

Picked up my first bout of Covid over a week ago and it has laid me low. I'm at the rasping cough coupled with nausea stage now and am unable to do much except sit around feeling sorry for myself. This is not a disease you can ignore like a common cold, it's actually serious. My infection is easily on a par with my worst ever dose of flu which I had about thirty years ago and remember well. At 80 yoa, I'm quite concerned about the cough which shakes me to my foundations and goes on for quite a while. I'm normally a very fit guy. I too used to mock people for making a big thing about Covid, I certainly won't do so again.

Despite dodging the previous outbreaks, the dreaded Covid has finally found out where I live! I've been hit by it for about three days now and it's a right beggar. I'm at the throat on fire and heavy coughing stage now, having been through high temperature, headaches and sore joints. It's easily as bad as any of the worst bouts of flu I had in the UK. I can't grumble though, I've dodged it for years and it's the first real illness I've had in a long time. Sampling the disease, I'd hesitate to call it nonsense.

Silly post.

Bangkok is huge compared to Pattaya, these things most probably would go unnoticed. I've lived in Pattaya for 18 years and feel safe walking around town day or night. Only seen minor incidents, unlike the small town where I lived in the UK which was like a war zone at weekends.

Whether she gets convicted (she should) or not, that's one ugly broad.

His mate, Bruce Springboard interrupted his performance in Canada recently to have a go at the Donald. Why can't these idiots stick to what they do best and realise that they're alienating their fans amongst the huge majority of Americans who voted for Pres Trump.

Crikey! He's been getting stuck into the pies.

Carney has to be the worst Governor of the BoE, ever! I don't suppose he'll do better as PM of Canada.

Hardly surprising being that Islam is the predominant religion.

I'm all for any school rule that instils discipline in the kids. It prepares them for taking responsibility in adulthood in their career and family life. Without rules you end up with schools patrolled by police because the kids have become uncontrollable just like in the US. The UK isn't much better. I approved of the short hair rule here, also the wearing of scout uniforms once a week.

Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-05-14 Must've been loud if the Thais complained about it!

What's the problem? He got it for free, declared it and it's being used as Air Force One, saving the US taxpayer millions of dollars. Never look a gift horse in the mouth.

There are about half a dozen hard lefties on this forum and they've already quickly waded in with their condemnation of the Brit Special Forces and NATO. The same ones that turn a blind eye to atrocities committed by the Taliban, Hamas, China, Russia etc

When I saw the thread title, I thought it was going to be another lefty rant against Trump & co.

Could it have possible ties to the fact that your 400k baht in the bank has to be seasoned for a couple of months before the application when doing extensions? I know this wasn't an extension, but maybe the IO had a bad day and got a bit confused. The fact that she said you have to have been married two or three months put me on to this line of thinking.

No doubt, like the lefties on here, he won't waste any time in spitting venom at Trump. We won't of course, hear anything sensible, just vile insults and incitements to domestic terrorism.

For years my online 90 day worked smooth as silk, then about a year or so back, with no changes to my applications, I started to get rejections. I spoke to the lady on the 90 day counter at Jomtien and she basically said that I just had to keep trying. This time around I've put in four applications and all I get is "pending". I'll keep trying until the due date, but I fear that another visit to Soi 5 is on the cards.

I'm fine with taking off shoes, but I wish they'd put a chair or a bench outside so that I didn't have to crouch or balance on one leg to remove a trainer. I'm 80 yoa and ok with squatting, it's standing back up that's the problem.

Sanity returns. I for one won't forget these sporting bodies for not making this common sense ruling without the help of the high court, just like I can't forgive them for taking the knee to BLM.

Yes it was. Same with the road to the D Veree hotel, entering on 2nd Road and exiting on Beach Road. Always a few vehicles going the wrong way along that one.

Typical lefty reply, don't give an opinion on the subject, maybe suggest how to reduce crime, especially amongst immigrants. Just call Trump names instead.
