Next they should go after the drivers that refuse to use the meter. Start at Asok after 9 pm.

She has cash flows between 1-2 million baht a month on her account.
As a bargirl she will never have earned so much.
This would corresponds to 1000 shorttimes per month.
No way.
She is a high-class drug trafficker.

I'm paying too much for short times.

Now what about the Red Bull murderer ?

First thing I thought as well.

The wires which are currently suspended in the air and subject to the monsoon rains are waterproof, as are the junction boxes. These can be submerged below ground without problem. They will be installed in ducts anyway. The electrical cables will have to be replaced and uprated as there is no air cooling below ground.

Actually no. Aerial cable and buried cable are completely different types of cable. Cable buried in the ground is generally filled with a gel or pressurized. Aerial cable is not.

I'm surprised the cops didn't make everyone reenact the crime.

Plenty of late night venues in Singapore. 

 

Can party all night their these days. 

Yep.

I think I've read about 100 cases of things like this happening "regulated" taxis.

I guess he forgot in rains in Thailand.  Maybe he should relocate.  Libya maybe?

This ought to be a fun thread. 

The government should shut down Line and these kind of things wouldn't happen.

I bet you're right. He was referring to extension of stay which I can't get because I travel constantly. Well I'll just keep going to Laos every year.

That's what I thought but this barstool expert was telling Mr that if I ever wanted to get permanent residence that I would have to renew the SAME visa for 3 years and not get new a new visa everytime because that resets the clock. This got me thinking "how do you renew the same visa?" I didn't think that was possible and it appears it's not.

It's not really possible for me to get an extension of stay because I travel almost every week.  I guess I'm more concerned about renewing my existing Non-O.  Is this possible, or do I need to go get a new one outside the country around the time this one expires.

I currently hold a one year multi entry Non Immigrant O visa based on marriage.  I'm hearing conflicting information on what to do prior to it's expiration.

Can I renew the same visa for another year?  I was told if I ever wanted to apply for permanent residence, that I would need to keep renewing the SAME visa for 3 years

If it's possible to renew the same visa, can I do this within Thailand at the Chaeng Watthana office?

Or do I have to leave Thailand and get an entirely new 1 year multi entry via from a Thai consulate in another country?

Thaksin has been running around for years with a revoked passport. He just paid off some governments and got a couple new ones. What's stopping this punk and his family from doing the same thing?

Democracy is the best of a bad bunch. At present there is no better system. If you want to have democracy, you have to educate your people to a certain level. You can't complain when they fall for people's lies. Trump elected, the Brexit, these are things people voted for, and boy are we learning as we go along. 

 

In the US they have the electoral college. This is supposed to ensure that America doesn't vote in a mad man,  but ironically 'Trumped' the popular vote that Clinton won. We now have Trump and are learning the hard way. Trump is also learning the hard way that he can't simply do whatever he likes. Checks and balances. 

 

Democracy will never function well in a country where there are no checks and balances. It's up to the people to speak out and fight against corruption and injustice. Sad but true. As for dictators, you get an unhappy peace. You'll never develop as a country with a dictator in charge. 

I hear the electoral college argument alot. It's hard to predict what happen if the president were elected by popular vote. Basically 8 swing states decide the election. It's possible the popular vote would have turned out in Trump's favor if there were a popular vote because I argue that the voter turnout would have been much higher in states that are a foregone conclusion.

That said it was nice to live in a state where it was a foregone conclusion. It saved me from the endless political ads on TV.

Not sure why anyone outside the media should care.

Not true.

 

There was no govt at time of this coup due to flawed elections. 

Exactly.  Not sure why this is overlooked so often. 

Russia. .. ok then. Infowars.com

So tell me the relevance. I don't want to hear the bs about every president releasing them since Nixon.

It's a witch hunt. The guy has plenty of other warts.

What is this obsession with the guys tax returns? I think they've already been leaked. Find something else to worry about maybe the hair.

What BS? Should I post the results? Like I said.. keep crying.. in 2020 you'll have another shot.

FTR I agree with you that the guy is a clown, but the voters have spoken. The elected an unqualified idiot twice in 2008 an 2012, and they were consistent again in 2016. Get over it.

Resisting an autocratic demagogue not a waste of time.

What a monumental waste of time. Maybe they should find a job.

Out of curiosity, did the cops oppose bail in the case of the red bull brat?
