    Locals in SE Asia, Japan, China etc were wearing masks back when Noah was a boy. Even foreigners here on Samui. It is because of pollution mostly - especially diesel smoke and fumes. Why is it a problem for you?

    I need alcohol on the medical wipes that I use to clean wounds. My friend need sit to clean his 3D printer. It does lots of good things.

    According to The Nation on Saturday, the expansion of Samui airport has been agreed. As also has the number of flights to be increased to 73 per day. The airport expansion is planned to be completed in three years. There was no date given for the increased number of flights.

    A total ban is not really working with drugs and e cigarettes. Why do you think it will work with smoking?

    Slightly more than a normal one. Here they do not issue permits until the builder has paid the 'express service' fee. Almost everyone starts to build before the permit has been issued.

    Does that include the whole Red Bull F1 team? Boss is often at the race meetings in the hospitality area.

    Bangkok Airways have 9 ATR 72's currently in service.

    After 20 years, different hogs.

    Are they also going to arrest the MP's who vape in Parliament House?

    Dear Thailand. China is not really your friend.

    Politician speak for 'he schatt himself'.

    I think that the experts should check their equipment more regularly.

    That is an interesting thought. I am sure that it will be manipulated managed out of Suratthani. The governors there have been milking Samui's revenues etc for decades. It only achieved some form of independence in 2012.

    So it is really about 'know the rules' and do your duty? Not sure where the safety bit comes in there. The first thing on the list should be a warning to pedestrians from the USA, Europe, China etc "Here you must look right, left, right before crossing the road and keep on looking (and listening) as you cross."

    I wonder what the Conrad think about this. Their peace and quiet will be shattered. The convoys of minivans will be bad, but the convoys of safari trucks are much, much worse. Reckless at the best of times.

    Hobson's choice or what? A watch thief who hits women v a drug dealer

    And there was me thinking that is was so that China could import more cheap, tacky goods more efficiently. I hope that they get the guys out safely.

    Disagree. Motorbikes have brakes, lights and indicators. People may not be using them, but they are there.

    Envy can be a terrible burden. Look on the bright side - you are living inside their head rent free.

    The guy is totally out of order. The responders do a great job, often under very difficult circumstances. Spouting krapp at folk because of your own stupidity - totally out of order.

    Thanks Poorsucker. I have had a card/SS number for more than 20 years. Not sure how. As a Director maybe? I now pay the 432 baht by standing order. Retiring is not in my genes. My mother beat into me as a kid 'if you do nothing, you get nothing.' 73 and still working 10 - 12 hours a day, 7 days week. (Mostly desk work and talking to guests. Nothing heavy.) Stay well and keep posting.

    Considerate of him to park it away from people and building whilst he destroyed it. It needed to be in a public place to garner the attention of the press.
  23. Tropicalevo
    But very sensible. Buy any other phone, the world is open and it is your oyster. Buy an iPhone and you are a prisoner locked into Apple for the rest of your life. And they steal and sell your data.

    Difficult for me to think of that oil slick as a 'massive' oil spill. Yes, I know writers love attention grabbing headlines, but this was a massive oil spill https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-39223308
