Why don't they put more money into vaccine projects and labs instead of this waste of a brain dead drug.

you obviously are not familiar with all the benefits of this plant... that is, next to profit!

I think that they should allow and control gambling only in Pattaya, make that a sort of LasVegas! that would be the only visable solution for that resort...

in Chiang Mai schools open upon Monday 25!

burning ban only one day? that won't help much...

Be interesting to see how much they sell a dose for!

 

Well this batch should be even cheaper given the quantity! I wonder how much margin they are negotiating?

in EU they sell it for 1.78 € per dosis...

the EU pays 1.78 Euro per dosis. now let's see for how much it will be sold here. of course only to farangs as Thai get it free...

and anóther one with the urgent need to be in the limelight!

so why not open the schools in ChiangMai again? what difference does it make as bars, restos back open! better let kids go to school, in March starts the big termbreak. I see it happen that they open the schools longer because of "insufficient number schooldays"... and that will be in midst of burning season!!!

when you go to the bank, ask for a "Bai Rabrong" [statement] and just say it's for immigration. the rest goes 'automatic'...

"You don't have to rich to apply for permanent residence. You only have to meet the 80k income requirement if applying on the basis of working here. If married to a Thai it is 50k baht."

this is strange, because I asked for info at MHS-immigration and there they showed me what I needed, amongst other requirements also 190.000 baht + 7000 baht as apply-fee that I won't get back, even if the application is cancelled/refused... anyone knows more about this? 

" Bonbon Ratchathani " : Freudian slip of the tongue?

do you want to know more about Thai people? go drive a car for a while and you'll know exactly how their mentality works! I don't like generalism, but in this case I make an exception! so many nitwits on the road that have absolutely no clue about what's going on with being part of traffic! you wonder why there are no more accidents per day... I'm sure that half of the drivers have no drivers-licence, nor ever did any test... they just do something until it goes wrong... and then the family must help solve it due to lack of money...

a very welcome positive song! nice teacher to do this!

he's so rich that he borrowed 150.000 from her... what a joke... she's absolutely right to sue him! sure not the first time he gave her a beating...

4 lcd screens in each 2nd class car? So there will be thai tv on? Or movies? Who is waiting for that noise? Just after they mentioned about the noisy engines beneath the 'old' cars that will be replaced by 1 engine-car.

By the way the present cars used are from Daewoo which is S.Korean not Japanese...

Pai (MaeHongSon) has nice natural hotsprings but there are nearby some resorts with pools with hotspringwater!

Very recommendable!

Why the girl did not press charges and why is she still living with him? That gives us something to chew on, ey?

I'm planning to take one of the public buses. Too many safety issues with minivan drivers. Anyone know the answer to my question about the air conditioned buses?

how about the safety-issues of the bus drivers? when you are in pai check behind the policestation the leftovers of a bus [the airconditioned one that you want to take] that didn't make it... some busses still are the old ones, open windows no aircon... there's no exact schedule of the aircon-ones, this goes random as anything else in t'land... minvans are still ok, i agree it depends on the driver but that's always the case, also with regular cars...

but there's a private company "aya", with schedule 5 or 6 times a day; their office is situated across the railway station, they drive pretty good i think, at least the vans they use are new and you can't say that about the vans that leave from arcade bus station so take your pick and keep your fingers crossed!

hi there, i have been in a similar situation and thank God, i have a good lawyer, we arranged a divorce at the ampuer and that lawyer made her sign a lot of papers in which she agrees not to claim any land [was on her name before] or house nor goods or motorbikes etc and also gave me custody of our own daughter[2+half yrs]. she has another daughter [7yrs] living with us for several years, went to school etc etc but now she wants that daughter to move back to her own mother's house, which means that she will not seperate ourselves but also our daughters who grew up together... all this because she met the wrong people when she went out by herzelf and now heavily into drugs. we went to koh samed for a "family-holiday" because she said she missed the kids so much, but after the first day she started to vomit several times a day, which means that her body asks for dope that she could not get there...

the dpe she takes is ya-ba, ganja[personally i have no problem with that when it's smoked in moderation] extacy, crack and coke, and maybe even heroine, because she don't know herself what it all is... by the way: what is "ice"??? some degenerated heroine-waste-product similar as crack?? anyways, i did support her for a while, but the debts got bigger and bigger because she also likes to play cards in illegal casino's... so now i have stopped paying her anything more... she's completely out of control, her mind and body is controlled now by drugs and she can't think straight anymore... whenever i talk to her by phone she askes in a conversation: 'what day is today?' in other words: off the real world... also my question: how does she pay for this dope, by "rendered services"??? we went to the maharaj-hospital in chiang mai to make a appointment with a psychiatrist, but on the day of the appointment she refused to go there... so still in the denial-fase... difficult, because we have children, but i agree with the previous speakers: you've got to be tough, this is a battle you can't win, she needs professional help: maharaj-hospital, martin-building[next to sripat] - female-doctor: surinporn ! good luck and otherwise break all the ties, because you can't help her anymore, you are emotionally to close to her... i've learned my lesson -as many of us- and i have a good "mae-ban" who took over the mother-role, she feeds the little one, bathes her and sleeps with her, so there is still a kind of family-situation... this won't disrupt her brains to much and next month she goes to nursery-school, then she can play with kids of her own age and forget about what her real mom is going through... her mom has to rock the real bottom first and maybe end up in jail where they put her in a cel for a week of two and without help let her rehab by herself, that's the hard way! the easier and more effective way is the maharaj-hospital.

take my advice: either professional help or pack your bags!

good luck!

similar interview was also on al jazeera, but more critical questions asked that were not answered by thaksin. he's the biggest crook that t'land knows, only in isan they don't understand that yet... yeah, education is not high standard, because that is in favour of the politicians: when they know to much, they talk to much... all red shirts are on the payroll, 600 baht per day. but they are less already, i guess they had to go home to celebrate songkran, or what's left of it!

This one really should have died a death by now. Where is your proof that *all* red shirts *are* actively receiving 600 baht per day? How many have you met and talked to at length? I'm sure that *some* have received money in the past, and maybe some of them still do now, but this is not unique to the red shirts. And, more importantly, I think a sizeable number of them would turn out (if financially able to) to support Taksin and the Red Shirt cause. They are fed up with having the military and "elite" keeping them down, and who can blame them?

most demonstrators are being paid, just as the yellow shirts at the airport got paid. this is very common here, money is the name of the game. thaksin can confirm that because he's got never enough... like everywhere else also here in t'land is economic crisis, not many go to bangkok and stay there several days/weeks for free, how could they afford to do so? no problem, as long as they don't use force, but this evening they went to far with one dead citizen as result. i really feel sorry for the people of thailand, not many know what democracy really means...

One shot dead by red-shirted protesters

BANGKOK: -- Red-shirted protesters shot a person dead and injured two others when residents of the Nang Lerng Market came out to criticise the protesters, PM's Office Satit Wongnontaey said.

Satit told Channel 11 that the protesters shot at three people and one was killed while the two others were injured.

-- The Nation 2009-04-13

Interesting to note that Red's are claiming many shot and killed by army, but currently the only Verified death is between the red's and local residents. Very sad.

Freddie

Can someone send a message to Taxin and let him know he is not the hero, he is just like a common criminal who thinking people still luv him ---- WRONG

And to make matters worse...the BBC has just had Taksin on the 10 o'clock news backed by a Thai flag saying that the protesters a right and the army are wrong and that it's time the government was changed!

No mention of the fact that he started the whole thing or that he is a convicted felon on the run from justice!!! Bloody BBC
