Yes, I am one of 3 main characters in the program (which is still being filmed by the way!).

Finally people will see what we REALLY do, which is very different to the BS written on chat forums.

It follows the Tourist Police around Thailand, but the main "action" comes from Pattaya.

might be a good show but your comment to see what we really do is ludicrous. you will be good boys when you know the camera is rolling. lets have someone follow you with a camera without your knowledge and see if we get the same movie. I seem to remember a guy sitting on a stool filming you and "oh boy"

Shawn W Crispin, Asia Times Online's Southeast Asia Editor, has additional points on why the petition is doomed to failure and additional why A desperate plea for amnesty is crucial to the red shirts in an article there.

Hello,

Any sci fi movie fans? This movie called District 9 just looks amazing.

How do I find out when it comes out here?

I found it on the SF cinema city website http://www.sfcinemacity.co.th/index.php/en...tail/District-9

But it's not in English and I see no dates. Does anyone have a link for release dates?

The Thailand premiere was held in my living room yesterday and the audience of 2 liked it very much. While it's not always necessary to wait for the cinema to show a current movie, but this movie will be worth seeing again once it arrives on the bigger screen here.

Thaksin's spokesman has some pretty strange ideas about amending the constitution, the coup, and the cause of the turmoil:

MOD: Could the thread title be edited to actually reflect the newsposts headline or content? Thank you.

MOD: Could you also remove the editorializing within the opening post as well as shorten the news to the first three sentences.

A public warning, I am not going to edit Bangkok Post articles quoted at length anymore. They will be deleted with no warning and no PM.

To those who are unaware. The Bangkok Post does not allow us to quote the entire article, but rather the first three sentences and a link. Also, if you are going to post a news article please do not editorialize within that post but in a new post so that there is no confusion regarding content. And please do not edit the article in anyway with font changes, either in size or color for emphasis. Instead, quote the relevant bit in the next post and editorialize from there.

Just a reminder, as it's 18 hours later and was hoping for consistency in the news forum. Thanks.

I've been watching it on cable TV on EuroSports channel. It's been very exciting.

Doesn't True Visions carry that? It's a lot more expensive than cable.

Well, this is getting tedious as several of you say very little constructive but think that debating and discussion is about dissecting the content of others' ideas instead.

For the record, I am a trained psychologist with a classical education and yes, I went to Cambridge. No big deal for me so don't even bother to comment on that but I tell you only to point out I have spent many years in that field and related subjects like anthropology and sociology. If you don't like proper argument which comes from proper education, no problem but then do not engage me. Thesis, antithesis and then synthesis each time and I do not ramble, you do...

It is fact that certain races, cultures and even genders are different. Smarter, more imaginative or even more malevolent at certain ages. Fact. Look it up and stop being so PC dim. All the girls are taller at 11 than the boys and smarter... In certain South American countries they have a third sex... The male sex is the prominent one at embryonic stage but by death is out-numbered by the female 2:1... Middle Eastern people have lower spacial awareness skills... Do I Need to go on... This is all in 'general'. I knew very smart PhD students from Thailand too. But general makes the population and if you look at the normal distribution, steroetypes are rarely wrong...

So, Thais are gentle. Score highly for EQ but not for IQ... Generally.. And have a low IQ Generally.... fact...

I do not look down on them. I feel sorry for them as this is a result of centuruies of deprivation and abuse by the ruling families from BKK but rather than support the casue of their repression, I want them to get them emancipation and have a working brain to think for themselves. That's so bad....?

My wife is Thai and I love here dearly as she knows her strengths and weaknesses. She is not the smartest tool in the box and she does not try to be but she has other very admirable and worthy traits and is a wonderful mother.

My son is already showing signs of being very bright even at 7 months so I am glad he has a good brain and good looks. A banana as the HK say - yellow on the outside but white on the inside. Yes, shock, horror, that's what they say in HK as they are plainly far more liberated and tolerant and not to be so PC to be stuck up their arse as in going-noand I will ensure he understands morals.

I love many aspects of Thailand but certainly not the inane stupidity of the farang who think they are soooo Thai but are just really unabel to think for themselves.

Grow up some of you and stop getting personal and if you have the guts explain your own beliefs to this level of detail, please do! Otherwise, stop being cynical and petty. We are all here to debate and we all have different views but there is no point being here if you cannot respect others and be honest to your own beliefs.

If you spend your time picking through others' posts looking for weakness, that makes you very, very weak indeed...

Did anyone else's jaw drop lower and lower as they read through that, or was it just me?

You are certainly not alone.

Shockingly distorted and racist views as well as misrepresentation of scientific findings.

If they represent his true feelings in real life, I feel sorry for his wife and family.

Choosing Pattaya as a location was a failure on Abhisit's part.

Why?

Could the same not happen elsewhere?
