if only she would have posted photos on face book 6 months ago something might have happened.

Possibly we wouldn't be reading about this, had she done so?

Good thing the author is unidentified.  Else, people wearing dunce's caps may come looking for him armed with a libel lawsuit.

You may well be right, but sometimes the truth hurts.

You DO need one....to boil eggs. Actually you're right, you don't need a kitchen. You could boil eggs in a kettle

Yes, you can. And cause yourself all kinds of problems skin wise.

LCD display boards like that were not even thought of in 1955 yet alone computers! The date is obviously incorrect.

The date is correct for the data shown. The date is not 1955, but 2555, five years ago!

Ktb have charged me 260 fee this past 2 years.

I've spent a lot of time in India over the years involved in medical humanitarian work.  It was always bad.  It's really become hell on earth now.  It is a nightmare.

On a stopover in india 20 odd years ago. On the way to the hotel, our driver pulled over and said he would be two minutes, dont open the doors. Within seconds of his departure the car was surrounded by dozens of kids wanting to sell us anything from newspapers to snakes. More than a bit of a fright for first time visitors

I wonder if this bullshit being offered up is connected to the recent headline stories in the UK papers ? It is about time they stopped with the denials, that no one believes and start a very serious and thorough investigation as to what and who is behind all the deaths. By now it is common knowledge that the island is mafia controlled and people there know, but are too scared to talk about it.

A very serious and thorough investigation requires honesty and integrity. Are we likely to find that? Answers on the back of a postage stamp please.

Will they start getting family permission before cremating victims bodies ?

It is only possible to do a cover up, if the evidence is not available!

These people are always in meetings and nothing gets done.  Having a meeting means truly nothing. 

Of course the meetings produce results. Todays meeting is to decide where and when the next meeting should take place. Then its a case of rearrange the deckchairs on the Titanic sun deck, then arrange the next meeting.

So again we have BKK taxis being pointed towards the straight and narrow. Does the rest of the country not exist? Are taxi passengers not entitled to the same considerations? Or does it only apply in BKK because most of the hisos live there.

Do not remember the situation being this bad in Malaysia.  They dealt with their undocumented workers in a much more balanced fashion.  The junta has caused mass hysteria.  

Are we supposed to find that surprising? If any ansewr to that is yes, they are very new to Thailand.

Sensible!! In Thailand.

He is joking of course.

Another postponed law and will probably another U-turn

Thailand's new hub.

The hub of U-turns 

In more ways than one.

Laws enacted all in a rush and no serious thought. What a surprise!

Every day i see a few dozen familys on motorbikes and a few dozen moms with infants in bamboo seats in front of them.

Why even bother with a article like this. 

This is just another article that shows how far thailand is behind in road safety.

I am guessing about 30 years from now thais will have similar road safety as to western worlds today.

But in 30 years the west will have high speed guided transport and thailand will have baby car seats and law enforcement .

A ratger optimistic assumption. Child car seats maybe, as to law enforcement???????

A good start in traffic control, but why does the rest of the country not have the same rules applied?

Which is precisely the reason why I own both a motorcycle and a car. Two vehicles, two purposes.

 

Evening dining, or going in another province: Car

Going in the city when I don't have time to waste sitting in traffic: Motorcycle

 

I trust this does not include riding on tge footpath?

There's still plenty of money left so, more toys for the boys while we are in charge.

They should take that money and spend it on road safety.

Mostly the roads are safe, the problem is those driving on them.

Er... ahem... shouldn't they be out defending the country?

From what I have to ask?

When I received my proof of life form, I added that I was now married. I then received Bereivement forns which allowes my wife to claim an initial payment of £2500 and then a monthly payment of between £100 or £200 per month for 2 years.dependent on her age. I'm worth more alive than dead, before you all start thinking the worst??

He would do better trying to stop a mad bull charging a red rag.

Someone call the Chinese quick!!!  The Navy's going to placing an order soon for new airplanes...

 

Along with the Chinese submarines, Chinese armored personnel carriers, Chinese tanks, and who knows what else...

We have had the trains and boats, so why not planes to round things off? 

Why, when I read this, did Snowflake, keep coming up in my mind?

Another much needed action for safety on the roads, that if past operations are anything to go by, will run from today, until about Thursday. The cops will have got tired of it by then and will consider the job done. The carnage will continue, because there are just way too many @rseholes using the roads.

The carnage on the roads is as you say, too many AHs on the roads. However, is this down to the driver directly, or the present or past governments? We are all fully aware of the situation but until that situation is properly addressed, we are stuck with what we have.
