  1. The plan includes deploying 30 units of fast-moving vehicles equipped with flashing lights for enhanced visibility during night-time, particularly aimed at alerting drivers. Also aim those vehicles at reckless drivers. In all the years I have been here, I have never seen anyone pulled over for speeding or recklessness. Get the useless highway patrol to actually patrol the highway. How about 30 days in jail, for any highway patrolman found in an office, instead of out there on the highway? Roadblocks accomplish very little, except clog the highways. It is a lazy approach.
  2. Nothing compared to massive field fires from burning cane, with the columns of smoke billowing hundreds of meters into the air. The range of your smoke was likely 25 meters. Compared to many kilometers for one field fire, and hundreds of kilometers from countless irresponsible sugar farmers. Lock up the big agra bigwigs. Nobody will miss them.
  3. Don't go after big agra, the real culprits here. And don't go after the sugar farmers either. Go after the pork vendors! And this guy was elected? With an IQ of 72?
  4. A bizarre event. Normally, you would just open the door and scold the idiot who was pounding on it. And this is a good reason why every home should have the equivalent of an aluminum baseball bat. He would have been the one who fled.
  5. Many Thais celebrate any and all holidays. It is just a part of their fun loving spirit. Any excuse for a party, or some good times.
  6. Public or private? Most would argue Medpark is the best private hospital. Blows away Bumrungrad. And many would argue Ramathibodi is the best public hospital, not only in Bangkok, but in all of Thailand.
  7. Not sure what is said, but the fact that 28% said 300 baht per hour was enough, sure said alot. A rather callous and out of touch reply, for sure.
  8. Never betray your family. It shows a huge level of moral bankruptcy, and a total lack of character. The upside to all of this is that the entire family knows exactly who this worm is now.
  9. Wrong. Most use Carnation. Carnation® Evaporated Milk is from milk with about half the water removed - making it richer, creamier and perfect to cook with. Store in a cool dry place. Refrigerate after opening.
  10. True. But alot of online sales are down too. I know many who sell online. All of them are reporting lower sales this year.
  11. How about the Dow at 3400? Unemployment at 36%? Just wait.
  12. There is no doubt that the US political system is just as corrupt as the Thai system, it's just much further underground and much of the corruption comes through morally bankrupt individuals called lobbyists and their equally bankrupt overseers.
  13. I wouldn't touch that topic with a 10-ft pole.
  14. Some real news for a change. And it's only going to get worse. A huge correction is likely coming. Last quarter, the euro zone economy contracted 0.1%, official data has shown, and December's Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) - seen as a good gauge of economic health - suggested activity has now declined in every month of this quarter. That would mark two consecutive quarters of economic contraction, meeting the technical definition of recession. https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/euro-zone-business-activity-declines-further-dec-pmi-2023-12-15/
  15. Excellent point, not only a proven moron, but a fraudster, and a serial bankruptcy king, a draft dodger, and a man with multiple personality deficits.
  16. Condensed milk is actually very dangerous here, because often times an open can is left out in the heat and hot sun for many hours, it spoils and it could cause food poisoning and all kinds of other ailments. I stopped asking for it, and I request they don't use it in soups, etc. Many people get sick from it.
  17. Yeah that's a very interesting point, and one wonders what kind of crazy acts or shenanigans the highly toxic army government goons are going to pull, in order to maintain those senators, select new proxy senators, or somehow try to maintain that power base. Power hungry fools do not let go of power easily.
  18. That owner would have to have been very much out to lunch to have not missed 8 million baht per year in revenue. The guy needs to have his head examined.
  19. Absolutely. Like the zombie apocalypse.
  20. No it's actually quite simple, I would like to talk to just a few retailers who say their business is good, either in Thailand or in the US. I haven't been meeting many. I have friends who are real estate developers in the US, and they own shopping centers and malls, and they all say the same thing, retail is way down and a lot of the stores are really hurting and having a hard time making rent. Find a car dealer who's willing to be honest with you and ask him how many cars did you sell last month? Find any retailer that sells medium to high-end products and ask them the same question, how much business did you do last month?
  21. Yeah in the US right now the economy is unbelievably sluggish, in the retail sector. The government is not letting on at all, they're still creating fake numbers, they're still lying about inflation dropping, and the unemployment numbers are probably fake too. The economy is in really poor shape and I have a very bad feeling too, I think it's only going to get worse. Here I think the economy is quite bad too, the government is not admitting just how sluggish it is, after many years of The Prayuth Decimation.
  22. I think I would need 200 hours of therapy after looking at the granny section, that would be utterly frightening.
  23. On your own plane or on someone else's plane? Is that service currently available, and what is the cost?
  24. It is simply inane to see somebody walking outside in an area that's uncrowded with a mask on, it feels like an atmosphere of the zombie apocalypse, and it does create a sense of fear and dread in the population. It's just not necessary at this point unless it is within a hospital or used for pollution. And I happen to enjoy warm coats in the winter time.
  25. How about limiting a run at the presidency to only veterans, only people under 65 years old, people who have never filed for bankruptcy, and people who have children that are of age to serve in the military. And a promise that if the president declares war, his children will serve on the front line! How's that for a qualification?
