    The burglar started shouting and stormed against Mr. Freddy to attack him, but the Dane fought back and managed to neutralize the burglar. Only for the man living opposite his house to come over and start to hit him with a hammer. The burglars managed to escape on a motorbike with the number “760”. Standing with blood flowing from his head Mr. Freddy called for help and the police, who arrived at the scene but refused to arrest the neighbour even though the bloody hammer was visible inside the gate to this neighbour’s house.

    They always stick together against farang :)

  2. It is true that psychotic females exist everywhere,I remember reading last time in England about a woman in Nottingham who had a very successful millionaire businessman for a husband.

    When he came home from a hard day's work she would always greet him with a glass of red wine,he was ill for a number of years then admitted to hospital.

    Apparently the doting wife had been slowly poisining her hard-working husband with anti-freeze in the daily glass of wine,he ended up virtually blind and unable to walk and she in prison,instead of down in Acapulco sipping Margerhitas on the beach!

    Same thing happened in US. Woman killed two husbands with antifreeze to collect life insurance.

  3. Ford to move its Asia executives

    Ford Motor Co. will move its headquarters for Asia, the Pacific and Africa from Thailand to the People's Republic of China -- a nod to the growing importance of that country as a global economic power.

    ...

    Thailand has been rocked by political unrest in recent years, including a series of coup d'états. But, Foard Small said the unrest did not factor into Ford's decision. Rather, she said the move is part of the company's continued integration of its once-disparate global operations -- a key element of Chief Executive Alan Mulally's "One Ford" strategy.

  4. Don't be fooled.

    DOVE is made by Unilever, which is the same company that is guilty of pushing the whitening agenda with brands like Citra, and Fair and Lovely.

    Last time I was in Singapore it seemed that Estee Lauder had bought up all of the ad space in the MRT stations for their "Cyber White" ads.

    YALA, June 12 (TNA) – A Buddhist monk was shot to death and another was severely wounded in a drive-by shooting attack early Friday in the violence-stricken province of Yala after three people were killed on Thursday in presumed insurgent violence in Narathiwat.

    The two monks were receiving alms in the early morning when two assailants on a motorcycle shot at them with an automatic weapon.

    The 60-year-old monk died at the scene while the other, younger monk was seriously injured and underwent an operation at hospital. His condition is still unknown.

  6. I was going to get a bus last time i visited and had real trouble deciding which one to get to take me to where I wanted to be. Any idea which one would take you closest to Sukhumvit soi 11?

    Bus 3 goes down sukhumvit. Get off at soi 6 and use nana station to cross the street. Come out exit 3 and you'll be right near corner of soi 11.

    Monk Phra Bunphithak Jomthong entered the U.S. four years ago on a religious visa and has since devoted himself to serving a burgeoning Buddhist community in Southern California. Barefoot and clad in a saffron robe, Mr. Jomthong recently gave what amounts to the most accurate job description he has: "to share Buddhist practices and to promote peace and harmony among people."

    But the U.S. government wants to deport the 47-year-old monk, after denying him permanent U.S. residency, or a green card, on the grounds that he was employed without authorization after his temporary religious visa lapsed. Now, Mr. Jomthong, a citizen of Thailand, is fighting in federal district court and immigration court for the right to remain in the country.

    At issue is the meaning of "employment." Mr. Jomthong's fate may depend on whether his attorney can convince a judge that the monk's unpaid religious services don't constitute employment. "The monk may work at his religious labors but he is not employed by the temple. He took an oath of poverty and doesn't receive wages," says Angelo Paparelli an immigration attorney with Seyfarth Shaw LLP who is representing Mr. Jomthong free of charge.

  8. I'm a bit puzzled why everyone seems to have been robbed of the neat amount of 100,000 Baht - give or take a few, if you read the article and count the times "(worth) 100,000 Baht" appears, it seems to me to be quite a lot of coincidence. Do victims get the allegedly stolen amount back from someone, no further questions asked? Personally I've never managed to store more than half of that inside my wallet.

    You have to file a police report in order to make an insurance claim...

    Anyone carrying a guap in bkk is a nutter.
