A well publicised map with names of the "luxury" condos ands hotels (especially the new developments) in the vicinity of the leakage will definitely help the matter rise to the top of the priority list. I hope the residents post it in Chinese, Russian, European and thai blogs.

I suspect lots of guys in pattaya have been with a post-op tranny and not even know it. Or, they are not admitting it.

A case of one person's heaven being another person's hell.

Although, I do wonder what Buddhist heaven looks like.

If he wants to remove trash then he is a garbage man. Lol

Sometimes i have a few drinks anddrive home ,in the UK i would get a ban ,here nothing ,i will say i never drive if 'drunk" but i do drive at a modest speed on the inside lane if i have drunk anything ,i cannot understand how you can drink heavilly and then race around like a lunatic ,which by the state of the car this guy was doing.

Oh dear. I give you full marks for honesty but zero marks for logic and a big fail for social responsibility.

Why do you think you might get banned in the uk got driving after a few drinks?

I hope you get caught, tested and banned (or deported) before you kill someone here.

Don't need another foreigner to add to an already big local problem.

I think he wants to find out why HIS driver did not win the first price at least 3x in the last 6 months.

Asians seem to have very poor judgement of speed / distance / risk / awareness / their own driving capabilities

Aint that the truth!!

Not an Asian thing at all. It is a lack of education issue. Coupled with an absence of effective enforcement of laws. Don't take my word for it... Just look at the many moronic farang drivers who drive as badly as the Thais in pattaya. I could be equally offensive and say many Western drivers here are lowly educated drunkards who have probably been suspended from driving in their own countries.

Btw...I have an Asian friend who is an excellent driver with no accident record and who had undertaken an advance driving skills course when he turned 18, at the insistence of his dad.

The term frankenfish comes to mind. Lol

Is it fair to say that most foreigners calling Thailand home are an asset to Thailand? If so my argument is they should be recognized , if they want to, and be adopted by Thailand. Rather than be given a permanent "limbo" status. It's logical and reciprocal.

I don't think it is a forgone conclusion that most foreigners calling Thailand home are an asset to the country.

I have lived/worked in Singapore, Malaysia and China. Now in Thailand. Many expats here are truly in a different class altogether and asset is not the word I'd apply to them.

If I were allowed, I'd be a PM, I bet I can clean this country up better than any Thai!

And I bet you can't.

Tree tales on east side of Naklua Road. Past soi 13 as you head north.

I am Australian. Our racists usually bleat "we are not racist BUT...":D

It's her beliefs so let her pay to get everything new. She did not ask you to pay did she? If she expects you to pay for her beliefs, then you had better listen to that little man inside.

The real agenda is to check out if Thailand has overtaken Disneyland as the happiest place on earth. And to check out the whopping fairytales being told to the citizens here

Contrary to what most farangs on this forum think I believe China should follow the China model. There are two programmes absolutely worth watching on CCTV if you wish to be well informed about and have a good understanding of what is going on in China and the massive impact this will have on the "Rest of the World" in this day and age of what many already call the "Asian Century". One is called "Dialogue" where anchor Yang Rui discusses geopolitical issues with guests from "both worlds" and the other is "Closer to China" with host R.L. Kuhn which is mostly about the "Chinese Model" and discusses if this could be a far better system than our failed western liberal democracy in particular in Asian countries.The only thing democracy in particular in Thailand has lead to is that they have embraced the worst of both worlds.

​Meritocracy is a far better system as long as it is based on Confucianism or Buddhism. Of course needs checks and balances but if it is based on traditional values it is so much easier to benefit all. Singapore is a shining example of how this can be achieved .

This is what General Prayud is trying to achieve. Most of the Thais understand what he trying to accomplish and are backing him. They also realise that so much damage has been done to the system and the economy over the last decades that this can not been done in a day. It will take at least 5 years.

In the short run -yes the Philippines will certainly outperform Thailand based on economic data. In the long run thy will lose out.

I fell over laughing when you mentioned meritocracy and Singapore and that the good general is trying to achieve that. It's as funny as his weekly Friday comedy hour.

What is wrong with these people???

Nothing wrong. Just the result of a very bad education system.

Download audio file of rooster crowing. Playback in early hours of morning at top of volume of your sound system that you must position facing cockerel owning neighbor. Repeat until said neighbour gets the message.

Can you tell the an irish person from an English person just by looking?

Gee... There must be someone influential living near there. Of all the places in pattaya, many of which have far worse problems with vendors cluttering the sidewalk, why do they focus on this barely 10m stretch of naklua Road?

The entertainment on Beach Road can be much better than whatever is on the tv....a mix of comedy/tragedy/action.

Plus there are lots of clowns.

:D:D

Apparently it's ok to consume "unclean ice cubes" again when songkran is over? Lol
