I heard our serial killing neighborhood PM, Hun Sen has a security detail of 5,000 men. Likely what it takes to keep him alive, as he is despised like few others. I wonder about Prayuth.

Has the "highly investigative media" considered the construction standards, applied to the railings, the lack of adequate height, or any other possibility? Stoned? Is that all you guys have? Really?

Michelle, by a long shot. However, she was gorgeous 30 years ago. I am not into 60 year olds, though she looks great for her age. She is very talented. One question. Am I the only one who thought Everything, Everywhere was a convoluted mess? 7 Oscars? Are they serious? I couldn't even get through it.

I disagree. I have a CX-30. It is a giant step up from the Mazda 3.

I wonder how many "humanitarian missions" they have flown, relative to trips for the overly entitled, overly wealthy, overfed, relatively useless generals. And what exactly does the army do for the people? 5 billion baht seems like an awful lot of money to shlepp the generals around. The army sometimes feels like a giant vacuum cleaner, absorbing as much of the national budget as they can. And what do they offer the people in exchange?

I find both the Yaris and the City downright boring and conventional, compared to the Mazda. Any newer Mazda. And little if any fun to drive. Life is short. Enjoy something nice.

You would be pleasantly surprised by the power the CX-30 has. And it gets good mileage too. In the mountains, I have never felt it lacks what I need. And the paddle shifters increase the fun of driving it.

I agree. However, he is not really stealing work from the locals. He is helping his friends out. The letter of the law becomes a trap, when applied literally, especially when the laws were written by short sighted, xenophobic morons. I have never been a respector of badly written laws, and hope I never become one. Some rebellion is needed in this day and age. Some of us really enjoy putting up a fight, in the face of nonsense.

I am about 183 cm tall and a fairly big guy. It is a little small getting in. But, once inside it is very comfy and spacious. Headroom is no problem. If you are 200cm tall, might be different. Worth it. Great car. Would buy another.

You are providing a good service for your friends. Whether it is legal or not, some laws are so lame, so onerous, so ignorant, that they are meant to be ignored. March on. Keep providing a great service to your people.

This article is very misleading and highly disengenuous. Welcoming a refugee, who is fleeing political persecution and is penniless, is a completely different thing than welcoming a tourist, willing to spend alot of money to stay here. Please. It is immoral to describe a Russian tourist as a refugee. Sure, they are fleeing a madman dictator who seems to enjoy killing women and children. But, they don't fit the description of most refugees around the world.

I don't want to sound irreverent or totally disrespectful, but I can think of a dozen reasons why someone might want to take out a politician here. I am surprised they don't need 24/7 protection.

The Fortuner is a real gas hog. Way too big for my taste.

Go for the CX-30. Not big at all and very easy to drive, park, and maneuver. And it is a dream car on the highway. My Thai wife drives it, and loves it! So do I.

In the US, the difference in cost between the CX-30 and the CX5 is not that much. Wonder why it is so much more here. I like the extra space of the CX5, but was unwilling to pay the vast difference. Go for either. Great cars.

We did alot of research, before buying our Mazda CX-30. It is the best small SUV on the market, for the money, in my opinion. Handles great, looks good and is fun to drive. Well appointed, with a Bose sound system that sounds excellent. 1.2 million baht. Worth it. The Honda HRV and the Toyota Cross are utterly boring by comparison.

Used cars are very easy to sell here, if the price is fair, and the car is solid. I have sold a few cars and bikes. Facebook, Craigslist, many online forums for listing. The market is strong for used cars and motorbikes.

Don't charge them. Don't jail them. Just transfer them at full pay. And continue sending the message that corruption is not only expected, but condoned. The crime is not the taking of bribes. The crime is getting caught or embarrassing the RPT.

I tend to agree. Not much harm. Immigration is so overly toxic here, it is a kind of sick justice that we can skirt their rules with a bribe. I have no issues with that.

How often do we hear of an active police chief being brought up on charges? Never. Can't wait till they go after the big joke. It is likely that only some Papuan Korowai tribesmen have more skeletons in their closets.

That would suggest mostly Ukrainians. I think most in Phuket are Russians. So, how about little Saint Petersburg?

Are there any immigration offices where bribes are not possible? Many even encourage them. On my last visit a very senior officer actually tried to refer me to an agent, who would accept the bribe on her behalf. The stink is nationwide. No amount of posturing by the Joke, changes anything. Same applies to the department he leads. The RTP. Does he not profit from all the nonsense?

Since his genius and his skills know no bounds, it makes sense to load him up with important appointments. After all, if an engineer can become a health minister and expert during a pandemic, why not transport minister too? His mind is so vast, he has no limitations. Anutin the Amazing.

When you consider the fact that it is unlikely any of them will ever see the inside of a jail call, it seems like an awful lot of effort, to pull off this public charade. But, that is who and what the big joke is all about. PR deception.

My wife's family is far and wide, and she has a huge circle of Thai friends. They are all unanimous, in their condemnation of Prayuth, and this sorry administration. And some of them work in government.
