  1. Yes, and the Thai version is even worse than the original.
  2. Bangkok Post gave an update today on the accidents that resulted in fatalities. From the Bangkok Post
  3. Thailand's stance on human rights is indefensible. It's record is well documented world wide. How Thailand was ever allowed to sit on the UNHRC is just beyond belief.
  4. It's a sad day when I read the above headline and say "Again!" I hope that I never have to travel on that overpass. Or even underneath it.
  5. Nine people caught smuggling drugs over the Full Moon Party period. Maybe organised from KPN. Lots of cannabis plantations can be seen when riding around the island.
  6. 100,000's of females might disagree with you. However, a girl who is smashed of her trolley may be at risk. Again,100,000's have survived that with no trouble.
  7. A bit of a sad comment to belittle someone's valuable and possibly life saving contribution to the community where she lives. Well done Khun Sawai.
  8. Why was the 16 year old Lek not arrested and kicked out of school?
  9. So numerous complaints and the BIB's finally do something.
  10. Thailand should never have been allowed onto the council. Their record on section 112 is another reason.
  11. Well spotted. Now we know why most Thai criminals are repeat offenders.
  12. Thailand went through those crossroads a while back. They are firmly in bed with China with no intention of moving away. They are taking the move slowly so that people get used to it and do not complain. Europe would have been a better bet than both the USA and China but China had the clout. Expect to see a lot more Chinese influence here.
  13. Larger Tops supermarket. Waitrose own brand plus others. Different percentages of Cocoa https://www.tops.co.th/en/search/dark chocolate
  14. Sorry guys and gals. 2 kg less cannabis in the bags please.
  15. Thank you. At least Samui is not on the danger list.
  16. The craziest thing that I have seen on a motorbike was two smallish pool tables balanced between the driver and the passenger. One table legs facing forward, the other with legs facing backwards. Second prize was two motorbikes with the each driver holding the end of a 15 - 20 foot bamboo pole with a blade. Used for cutting fruit from trees. They were turning right at some traffic lights. The first guy got through on green. The second guy at the back didn't. The cars did not see the pole and shot off as they normally do when the lights change. Carnage.
  17. Sadly, this trafficking of young girls is not unusual. A very good friend of mine found out that her daughter (14 years old) was being offered for sale as a virgin, by the girl's own grandmother. My friend took the daughter away from the grandmother and moved to another province.
  18. https://aseannow.com/topic/1354505-dogs-bark-brings-rescuers-to-5m-king-cobra-under-car-bonnet/
  19. The good old Thai election system. Any excuse to avoid making a decision and possibly upsetting an 'influential' person or three.
  20. If you want to rent my planes, then you take the pilots as well. They have the relevant experience. If something should happen to the plane, replacing it would be a time consuming process these days. This is the very reason as to why airlines are resorting to wet-leases. Manufacturers cannot build planes quickly enough.
  21. What integrity? There is none in Thai politics, especially at the senatorial level.
  22. Compared to the 9 Burmese found in a the cab of one pick up truck, this is luxury level people smuggling.
  23. That is not what I would call a 'luxury' condo.
