The biggest joke has had a long time to demonstrate to the world if the RTP is serious about fighting human trafficking and slavery in the fishing trade and elsewhere. He has shown us nothing. Why? The top guns are simply too powerful and too well connected. They are the untouchables. Above the law. Any and all laws.

I would certainly put it up there in the top 20. As a place to live. And they are not taking into account the women, combined with a very agreeable standard of living. That would push it into the top ten. Lovely women who are comfortable manifesting the dignity within femininity, who embrace their femininity for the precious quality it is, and push back on the me too extremism. That is special. That is the reason alot of us are here! Just say no to nonsense, is how alot of us feel about things back in our home country.

Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
spidermike007 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
While much of what you say is true, it is not connected with the attempt to revise or erase the history of the holocaust. Abbas is a blazing fool. That was one of the most horrific things to happen to mankind in the past century. Right up there with the atrocities committed by Japan and their insane emporer. -
Phuket Airport taxi turmoil: Grab’s entry drives cabbies to complain
spidermike007 replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Anything that brings competition to the Phuket taxi mafia is a good thing for tourists. Let the buggers complain. Means nothing. -
The authorities to the people: We realize the Russians are not well liked and lack basic social skills. But, the Russians, Chinese, Indians, Malaysians and Arabs are all we have now. Very few Europeans, Australians, Kiwis, Americans and Canadians are visiting now. The high airfares must be a deterrent. Are there other reasons? We don't know. You don't have to like them. We work with what we got. Right?

Pareena Acquitted: Court Drops False Asset Declaration Charges
spidermike007 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
What ever happened with the army promises to root out your bad apple immigration guys, on the border? They likely let in thousands, to line their greedy pockets, during covid. A question to Sretta. Do you care at all, on any level, about anything other than your own enrichment, and the vintage of ridiculously expensive champagne you will have this evening? There is no saying the extent of the corruption in this new administration, but the army and the PT are not exactly known for integrity. -
Is he trying to emulate George Carlin? For a PM who was installed based on corruption, and the theft of an election from the people, to say he vows to eliminate corruption, is a bit like Trump saying he vows to offer transparency, be honest, and honor election results. Not gonna happen. Not with him and not with the morally bankrupt PT/Army partnership in place. If anything, this was all about maintaining the gravy train, not stopping it. Who does this joker think he is fooling?

It is all about contentment. And if renting, hard to beat a good landlord. If it works for you, stick with it.

When one can rent a great place here for under $1000 a month, why buy? It is a renters market here. Hooray!

To each his own, I guess. I get it, if the budget is very limited. But, I do not understand opting for a tiny space, when the budget permits a nice place. Life is way too short for that kind of thrift in my opinion, especially with the reasonable rents here, in most areas.

And the judicial system vows to end the madness of Trump! He is a relic. The future is definitely not in gas powered vehicles, and this guy is the polar opposite of a visionary.

‘Russian-only’ businesses in Thailand’s Phuket spark backlash
spidermike007 replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
No, I did not, Simply a callous reference to the Cossack crusades, serial killing, and massacres. But, most of us come from cultures which have a savage history. As an American it was not only our history, but it is our present too. Especially within the US. The land of the free, and the home of the mass murderers. -
I have recently sold both a desktop Mac, a Macbook pro, and my gals PCX to Thais. Very pleasant folks. Straight, easy to deal with, and met when we were supposed to meet. For all the generalizations we see on here, there are alot of sincere, hard working, very decent Thais, also. I would say the vast majority.

And that is all that is important. As long as it works for you, means absolutely nothing what I think or prefer. Contentment is a beautiful thing.

Involvement in "Boss" Case Accusations denied
spidermike007 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
He has previously clarified that he neither assisted nor endorsed any unlawful actions in this case. Wow. Now we know he is telling the truth. LOL. Any political leader here who insists he is innocent, has to be considered guilty! And anyone at the national level, likely is. -
Nope. Not for me. I love space, and have been fortunate to have lived in alot of spacious homes, lofts (NYC), and apartments over the years. Few things in life beat the luxury of space.
