Plod is Moron Number one in The DL's Moronocracy. I'm not sure where Yingluck and Chalerm come, they are both vying for the second spot.
This article is just too funny. Did Plod actually blow his whistle back?
Don't know if he blew his whistle this time but I heard that he does like to blow whistles...

If you need Chalerm you know you have a problem.

I wonder who's paying for this......
It would be fair to ask who is paying for the anti government rally? They sure are not sitting there spending their own money. Sorry i forgot its ok for the other side to be financed by faceless people with an agenda to send Thailand back into the dark ages
Yes it is a fair question.
but what yiou are trying to do is evade reality.
the anti government started with out a sponsor it just arose out of people able to add 2 +2 and get 4 for an answer. It got so big that it did need backers. that is who ever they are stepped in.
the red shirts on the other hand had a backer with no people so he hired an organizer to raise up the red shirts who would have stayed home with out him being clueless why bother demonstrating. But the chance for a all expenses paid trip to Bangkok and getting paid to do it well they just grabbed on to that idea.
So we have on one side indignant citizens deciding on their own enough is enough and on the other side people who are clueless about what is going on but are getting paid to protest.
Agreed.
There have been many small groups protesting across Bangkok for months. All independent. I remember that many politicians and posters here on TV were laughing and said that they were to small and not organized good enough to be a threat to the established government. This is real democracy at work.
What Thaksin is doing is completely different. He rents a stadium, organizes a few hundred buses (transporting people from the north), and pay people
2000thbto join. All done with a few days. Democracy Thaksin style.-

Thaksin's partner in crime.

Any idea guys, if they will allow you to test ride a few models???Thanks- I'm going to try to get there on Saturday or Sunday- I'm not 100% sure I can get to BKK, but I'd really like to go.
I have never been before.

Speed limits depend on your ride. Anyhow, safety first

I went to Ducati Pattaya on 3rd road this morning.
2 new hypermotard outside the shop and I was told they got them yesterday.
1 new hyperstada outside the shop without the side bags on red plates for test riding.
Both models looks very nice and I had a test sit on both. Despite me being app 186cm and long legs I fell much better on the strada and I like the back support the lowered seat gives too. Better mud guards too.
Both models fells smallish, especially the motard fells like an overgrown moto cross bike, he-he.
I asked for a test ride and was told I can come anytime I want and have a 15min ride but shorts not allowed, lol.
I will most likely go and have a test ride later this week despite my wife don't like that I might start riding big bikes again.
The staff was very polite and helpful and gave us water bottles marked ducati on them.
1000 km service is app 3500 baht and 30.000 km service (change cam belt) 15.000 baht.
I am not sure if I want to spend 550k on a strada, it will only be a toy for me and not many nice bike roads around Pattaya like up in the ChangMai area.
They told us 10 of the 820 are on order and about equal distributed between the 2 models and 1/2 Thai & 1/2 expats.
I forgot to add: The nice sales lady told me it's best to run benzine 95 and only gasohol 95 if the first can't be had, <deleted>?
Correct. (it's best)

I've been framed. I've been framed. Well AV now you know how Thaskin feels.
Abhisit is standing in court, in Thailand. Where is Thaksin?
Preparing his red mob to intimidate the judges....as usual!

Not going to help the local stock market or the tourism industry or the food industries or the country.
You are right. Look at it this way too. The last 2 years the government was able to run this country without any obstruction and they made a real mess out of it. They have betrayed the public over and over and on top of that have completely mismanagement this country. They are only interested in 2 things: buying votes through over the top populism, enriching their own family and friends. Thais, strangely enough, can accept this IF they ALSO do a good job for the country.

Phichit don't need the water management. Please let them flood.
How do you know they don't need water management?
You really talk like plod. Remember his famous words: "If you didn't vote PT, please don't expect to much support from us"

Guys like Tarit are the root case of all the mess Thailand is in today.

Didn't take long for the man with all that alleged "strength" to start wobbling, did it?
Are you referring to chalerm at the end of the story?
He is talking about Thaksin's lap dog Tarit. They guy from the Department Of Special Investigations that has yesterday declared war against whistle blowers.

Very entertaining to see all the legal experts, who believe that Thaksin is innocent, suddenly agree with Tarit.
-
Tarit and the DSI have rules that they need to follow and legal processes and procedures that also need to be adhered to.
If this case is kicked out as it seems engineered to do so, it will be to the detriment of the of the deceased and their families and very clearly the fault of Tarit who should equally have been held accountable

Well the dsi has largely concluded that the guys holding the guns didn't kill anyone, but that through some amazing hypnotic power abhisit and Suthep did.
So laughing at tarits legalese isn't too difficult.
In a murder case, the one that open fire and the guy giving the order share equal responsibility.
Really? Let me give you a difficult question. In your logic, please explain why the military is cleared already.

So, it doesn't require evidence - just clear charges.
The last time the Dems presented evidence, Tarit took it away as homework and hid it under his favourite stone.
I believe evidence on the Rice Scam was produced in the house implicating a red shirt wife.
I'm sure the good people at the ministry of finance (the ones that haven't been moved to jobs where they can't hurt the PTP) could show in jiffy that the scheme is corrupt. The percentage to farmers was very small. Where did the rest go?
The rest of the money is still in the rice stock. One day rice will be scarce and then PT can sell it for 3 times the buying price.

Another crazy attempt from the Dems, it never stops. A bunch of cry babies. AV leads the pack.
I believe that the question is how much evidence and material they have to show, and how much have they actual submitted. I can't believe that they have submitted zero reasons.
In a democracy, its good that the PM answers some questions about her actions and decisions.
Personally, I would love to see Yingluck being grilled.

Well the Dems are busy pressuring the court to dissolve PT, so did anyone not expect a response?
In what way? I have not seen any evidence of the Dems camped outside the court or homes of the judges nor have they given out addresses.
They have repeatedly said that they want to give the constitution court the support to make the right decision. The reds have said that they are interested in the courts decision. Both meanings are the same and that is obvious to everyone: we want a decision favouring us and after Wassant's interview both sides know that decisions based on politics, and street demos and not law happen. In fact it is no surprise that both sides take to the streets after what Wassant said.
To understand the subtexts and how these things work PAD Sondhi statements before he was shot in the head are revealing along with lots of wikileaks too). The context is important and does anyone think the players are neutral (check polls on what the Thai people think of some of the courts, or just listen to Wassant on the perception of the court he used to head.
"The reds have said that they are interested in the courts decision."
The Reds have said a lot of things or rather their leaders have. There are many memorable quotes from the Red's leaders and many that are recorded on youtube.
The Reds like this, like that, agree with this don't agree with that..... Their leaders always act as if the Reds are 10 years old. The leaders decide...

Didn't know the reds are also legal experts. I always thought that their field of expertise was setting things on fire.

Sometimes i wonder if the red shirt supporters can actually hear themselves, with the things they come out with.They could make their voice heard in the next election too. That's what people do in democraties. Of course, they get free food and entertainment at the rallies... It must be a magnet for some people who have nothing else to do.
The hypocrisy is really quite staggering.
Indeed. I am now witnessing the first democratic rally in Thailand since long. No violence and most people join have day jobs. It's not fair to compare them to the reds. Day time it's fairly quiet, except for noon time, and then the more protestors show up again during the evening.
Some people believe that democracy is only about elections and if you win you can do whatever you want. No checks and balances, no accountability just do as you please. Sad indeed.

Poor children, living in England in the winter- a terrible fate.
Too true, but I guess the alternative was Dubai and the kids are streetwise enough to know that Dubai is no place to be. For many, Dubai is a bit like Xanadu, with the promise of eternal life, but once you got there you could never leave, so what was the point. Dubai is much the same, it seems all glitzy and fun on the outside or to the casual traveler, but once you are embedded there it's a completely different story.
Good luck in London, but the downside.....watch out for the press and the journo's, because they won't hold back like here, and every nightclub will be full of 'friends' with iphones and smartphones!
Too true, but I guess the alternative was Dubai
I have heard that Thaksin was kindly asked to leave Dubai by the end of this year due to his continuous involvement in Thai politics and the threat he had received from Al Qaeda.

Well, whistle blowing is much more peaceful than smashing an iron bar through a car window.

The police are in the ptp's pocket, what else can you expect. They let the red shorts run riot last time and here they are coming down on these protesters even when the pm said they werent to do so. It would seem that big brother is paying the right people to do his bidding again, this will just keep happening, its Thailand what can you expect
Some people might not know that but during the Red shirt rallies in 2010 there were parts of Bangkok that were controlled by the reds, not the police.
Yes, that is correct - although are resident apologists (most of whom, were not in Bangkok in 2009 or 2010) will be along shortly to dispute that.
They can dispute whatever they want. I lived in the area and had to pass a few intersections with trucks standing in the middle on which a bunch of wasted red shirts were having a party. Total anarchy at that moment.
Ducati M796 Motor Expo promotion 449k

Posted · Edited by Nickymaster
Not many people were going to buy the 795 anymore, anyhow. They are waiting for the newer models. Therfore Ducati is making this deal to keep the sales going untill the new model is released.
Sexy swing arm + 180 rear tire (not to forget!!!).
