Good work guys uncover as much corruption as you can and when you're finished with these guys why don't you investigate Prayuth, Prawit, and the top 200 generals in Thailand?

Excellent news. I think the elephants intuitively know how harmful sugarcane is for the environment and they're doing their best to try to improve the air quality of the nation. Since the lazy, good for nothing politicians won't do anything, maybe the elephants are taking it into their own hands, or feet should I say? Bravo!

It would appear after the recent sellout of PT to the highly toxic and heinous army, that the entire Thaksin family has become almost completely irrelevant. My woman's family who used to be avid supporters won't even talk about them anymore. I think most of Issan has abandoned the Shinawatras, they tarnished their legacy for good, by jumping into bed with the wrong reptiles.

Any time of year Russia is an absolute pit of desolation. I would need a sponsor to come up with $75,000 cash, to even consider a visit to that God forsaken land.

They need to stop making predictions. They are always wrong. Too many variables. And they keep forgetting two things. 1. Thailand is not the center of the known universe. 2. Thailand needs foreign tourists 100x more than they need Thailand. 3. When extreme cowards keep a county closed for far longer than they needed to, out of fear of the zombie apocalypse, it takes time to restore the industry. 4. Whitewashing and homogenizing a nation, engaging in fake purity campaigns, ridding the nation of street vendors, shutting down the nightlife and putting millions out of work, while favoring cronies, is not smart, and the end result is a less interesting place to visit.

He was terrible the first time around. And it was likely he was only allowed to sit as PM, because they knew how awful and ineffective he would be. They love mediocrity. Sretta is proof of that.

A total over reaction. All metals fluctuate. Gold and silver have been climbing for a while. Corrections are totally normal. Unfortunately, bad journalism is too.

My experience has been that people with high self-esteem are not always defensive and trying to hide truth, however the leadership here seems to suffer from major self-esteem issues and therefore are very defensive. The nationalism issue does not help either.

In his case the 2024 models are already out and they're attempting to sell the 2023 models at the same price which is pretty crazy right?

It is they who are mean and mercenary. A dozen good friends who attest to that. Whatever works for you. I am from the US and enjoy spending time here. However, I have witnessed the dramatic decline in the quality of life. This will be my last reply. I applaud you for the passion you have, in defending a lifestyle that works for you.

I prefer a smart woman, who is Asian. Almost inevitably in the West, that same brain that gives you that stimulation, also tends to give you so much grief, it is not worth it, on any level. Always a debate, Always a competition. No thanks. I enjoy all of her other qualities, that make my day so delightful and fulfilling. I learned long ago that an intellectual woman, who can match me intellectually, also tends to be a combative woman, and the chance of harmony is low. I for one, love a harmonious house, where my woman is joyful and light hearted, with a great sense of humor, and an amazing attitude toward life, and us. Just my point of view. Whatever works for you, stick with it.

Are you referring to all English speakers, or just British? Some Brits have very strong accents. Most say Americans are fairly easy to understand. The accent, if they have one, is fairly flat.

An average looking woman here, is infinitely more fun and more attractive, than most gorgeous women back in the US, who are so hard, so lacking in femininity, so unappealing, and not sexy despite a great face and body. Most western women have completely lost the plot, and not only have no idea how appealing real femininity is to most men, but would be unable to express that quality, even if they tried.

No doubt if given the opportunity after breaking dozens of laws over the past decades, he would carry his toxic agenda much further. Towards fascism, no doubt. He is a huge danger, and he must be stopped.

Total fake purity nonsense. People know what is available here. The sex industry is rampant all over the world. Thailand is no different. It is just more transparent. In the West it is much further underground. They are not open and notorious, and sitting out in front of massage parlors. They are online, working as expensive escorts. They work massage, they work in the porn industry. They ply their trade on Tinder, as companions. Far less obvious, but it is the same thing. Equal or greater numbers, per capita. The big difference is the honesty of the Thai women, and the way they go about what they are doing. Far more transparency, and infinitely more delightful. They do not seem to be burdened by copious amounts of guilt or regret. They just do what they have to do, and get on with their lives. For me, that translates into integrity. Thai women, like all others come in many different shapes and forms. Many are really lovely women, who have the kind of heart, soul, and feminine nature a burned out, overly uber feminized women in the West cannot even conceive of. Same applies to the millions upon millions of SIMPS, and emasculated Western men out there. Many of us have met bargirls, or massage girls who are very kind, and are doing what they can to help out their families, who have next to nothing. The culture here gives them few alternatives. The authorities need to start behaving like adults, and come to terms with the industry.

Ignoring truth does not change it one iota. Sure, there are some good women in the West. I have a dozen friends back there who are decent looking guys, in good shape, who are smart and successful, and they have a very hard time even getting a date with a normal, well adjusted woman, who is decent looking. They are not making that up. It is their life! I am not making this up. I also have many friends here who are decent looking guys, in good shape, and who are smart and successful. Not the losers you insist we all are here. Good guys, with good Thai women. There are thousands who fit that bill on this forum. We all just got sick of a lower quality of life back in our native countries. And do not think for a moment, that your women would stay with you if you were broke. Money matters everywhere. Just a fact of life. Justify yourself all you need to, but do not deny reality and truth. That is not a helpful contribution to this thread.

It is about a man who is comfortable being a man, making an effort to preserve his masculinity in the face of a war on what the fools are referring to as "toxic masculinity", by extremist "me too" women, SIMPS, and feminists. It is about a man who still maintains some testosterone, and is fortunate to be with a Thai woman who is totally comfortable manifesting the immense amount of dignity within femininity, and utterly denying the "woke mind virus". This has nothing to do with Epstein, the murdered sex offender (and yes, there is zero chance he killed himself- zero!), Weinstein, or any of those other entitled fools. Do not even attempt any equate any sort of masculinity with what they did. Sure that is toxic behavior. But does that make all men toxic? A truly masculine man has deep respect for women, and great regard for the quality of femininity. It is about men comfortable being men, and women being comfortable being women. A very alien concept in the West, and in other very weak, emasculated nations like OZ, and NZ.One of the most wonderful things about Thailand, is that the judgment level of couples with significant differences in age, is not as harsh, as in the west. My woman is quite a bit younger than me too. It works really well for us. When I dated women close to my age back in the US, it rarely ever worked out. Most were very rigid, too judgmental, conventional thinking, closed minded, and set in their ways. Plus, many liked to go to bed very early, and behaved and looked as if they were 20 years older than they were. That was not fun. I find younger women to be far more vital, more vigorous, and if you are fortunate to find one, far more open minded and adventurous. I find when we are out in public many men stare at her, as she is still very attractive and fit, and look at me with envy. Women here seem to be fairly neutral. In the US we get some attention. She gets alot of looks, and the guys look at me like they presume I am a centi-millionaire. The gals look at me like I a felon, and have committed a major crime, by refusing to jump over the hurdles prescribed by them, the feminist diatribe they prescribe to, or think they have to obey, that I am and taking a shortcut to heaven. Same with Western women tourists. That is so much fun. It is a wonderful feeling to watch the Western women squirm and to witness their confusion, scorn, and disapproval.

You are totally glossing over much of the reason why millions of men leave their home countries, for greener pastures abroad. The women are better. Lets face that fact. Infinitely better.

This is a horrific tragedy for those involved, their friends and their families. Nobody knows exactly what happened yet. But I know one thing. If those lazy, nearly useless highway patrol officers started patrolling the highways, rather than sit in their air conditioned booths playing cards, waiting for an accident to happen, there would be far fewer fatalities on the roads. If they were pulling people over for the reckless stunts I see every single time I get on the highway, accidents rates would drop. Thailand would all of a sudden have that bizarre notion known as a deterrent. Those guys are criminal, in their lack of fulfillment of their job duties. Perhaps we should start locking them up.

Nearly every friend I have in the US is single. Why? Because for a man in the US, who is past the age of 50, unless he is willing to get with a woman at least his age, his prospects are dim for finding love, or companionship. Some guys like me, simply prefer younger women. Not kids, but women who are 5, 10, 15, even 20 or 25 years younger than us. For a dozen very valid reasons. I could break them down, but why bother? The PC crew will jump on this and say it is not right. You should not be able to have this kind of life, without jumping over ridiculous hurdles! Means nothing to me. I do not do PC. Why be with a woman our age, if we do not need to? Nothing wrong with it, if it works for you. But It is virtually impossible for a 60 year old man in the US, to hook up with a 36 year old woman, unless she is very fat or very ugly, or he is a centi millionaire, or is famous. Period. It just does not happen in this day and age. Here it is possible. Granted he will likely get with a woman of lesser means, who needs a guy who can provide some financial stability. So what? Who cares? Most women want financial stability anywhere in the world, whether they admit it or not. The difference is here the women are more honest about their financial needs and desires. I know a lot of men who have engaged in relationships with lovely, kind, supportive, humorous, and sexy women here, who are no longer lonely. We have very good lives. Fulfilling lives. Lives we could never dream of having back in the US, Oz, NZ, UK, Canada, or Scandinavia. Even though my woman is very smart, I do not get much intellectual stimulation from the relationship. But, I get so much else. And in all of the relationships I was ever in with really smart women, who I got intellectual stimulation from, there was also so much grief to contend with. Such combative women. So much competition. Yikes. Thrilled to death to have left all of that behind. When I was only in the relationship for a year or so, I had dinner with a very sharp American friend. I asked him about that. He laughed. He said, when you feel the need for intellectual stimulation, call me. We can hook up for the meal, and break down the origins of the cosmos. Do not fret. That same brain that gives you that stimulation, also tends to give you so much grief, it is not worth it, on any level. Get over it. Enjoy all of the other qualities, that make your day so delightful and fulfilling. Great advice, that I have followed to this day. I learned long ago that an intellectual woman, who can match me intellectually, also tends to be a combative woman, and the chance of harmony is low. I for one, love a harmonious house, where my woman is joyful and light hearted, with a great sense of humor, and an amazing attitude toward life, and us. Just my point of view. Whatever works for you, stick with it. I am always looking for harmony, in a relationship. Nothing beats a quiet home, with an outstanding woman who is a great mate, a fun person to be around and always has your back.

To a large extent this is about Western men trying to escape the woke mind virus that is so spectacularly toxic, and is leading to the diminishment of civilization and relationships. Reject it with every nanogram of your being. Eventually it will fade, hopefully. Or else, society is doomed and the population will drop precipitously.

The police here are not law enforcement. They are franchisees. The franchisees who represent a morally bankrupt administration, posing as puritans, are cracking down on a financial pillar of contemporary Thai society. How does a reasonable person even respond to this? Best to not respond at all. Fake purity in the worst possible form. Not convincing on any level. This is merely about fake Quakers attempting to deceive the masses.

It would appear that the "imposter do gooder" is hungry for publicity again. They are pretending that they don't know what goes on in Pattaya, when the entire world knows what goes on in Pattaya. The place is infamous. And they are pretending that a video like this is going to damage the reputation of Thailand, when everybody already knows this information. There's nothing new here, there's no emergency here, this is just a man desperate for more time in front of the cameras, pretending to address a problem that has existed forever.

A voice of reason within the wilderness of absolute delusion. Sretta is no doubt on a daily basis revealing that he's totally unprepared for this job, his policies are not what is needed right now, he has no vision and if he thinks this 10,000 Baht scheme is going to fix the economy the man is suffering from massive amounts of delusion.

Easy answer. The same reason men from all over the world renounce their native women and come here in search of a real woman. I think a large part of the equation is the erosion of femininity in the west. It has gotten so bad, that masculinity is now considered toxic. This is an existential threat to civilization, no doubt. It is me-too, and uber-feminism that has been the real nuclear bomb to relationships and a woman's ability to express herself, have sex freely, date normally, manifest the incredible dignity within femininity, and relate to men, in a healthy manner. It seems to contribute to an extremely unfulfilled female gender, and has resulted in making life very difficult for most men in the West. Post Covid, things are even worse than before. Thankfully, little of that toxic nonsense has reached the shores of Thailand. Women here seem to intuitively know how powerful their innate femininity is, and they use it to the fullest. I am very thankful for that. I think many have simply rejected alot of mind numbingly wrong headed Western notions, that women are saddled with. The most important aspect of this, that most Western women cannot see, nor understand, is that most Asian women are very comfortable manifesting the dignity and beauty within femininity. For most men, that is incredibly appealing, and a hugely refreshing change from what they have become used to, and learned to tolerate.
