  1. Koh Lipe is a beautiful island :-) I worked there for 4 months in 2001, the pre-internet time on the island.... Nice and very quiet! Went back in 2006, and things had already drastically changed; much more shops and development..... All for the tourists....

    I am sure it is still beautiful, no chance for the big hotels due to the sea gypsies ;-) I am sure you have a good time :-)

  2. My method is better. It is effective, cheap and long lasting in its effects. People caught with drugs should be made to swallow, inject whatever it is they do with them all in one go. If they survive then they are free and can go home. But if they dont...........

    biggrin.png I like your idea! Especially for the marijuana.... A joint of 17 kg weed must be a world record, and very very long and fat.... Probably takes years and years to smoke this little spliff cheesy.gif

    However, the guy who has to smoke it, probably will NEVER have another joint in his life again (if he has not died before of long cancer or so) tongue.png

  3. In 2002 I stayed in Korat for about a month, This Dutch guy and myself were offered jobs teaching English. I told this school that I am not a teacher, his reply was that is not important. The thing that is important is " To be white and can speak some English" The Dutch guy could only speak a little English.

    The point I am trying to make is the schools don't care about the children's education they only care about MAKING MONEY

    To me this is a very sad situation.

    I'm not saying that the Filipinas are not good teachers or the Dutch or German but I do believe that only Native English teachers should be teaching English. I just hope for the Children sake they can fix this problem.

    Non native speakers are prefectly abled to teach English. I had a Dutch English teacher in school, I am sure an Englishman could not tell he was not British, just a perfect Accent.

    I disagree with you.

    I agree 100% with Mr Somtam!!! Non native speakers are often much better understandable and have often less accent than a lot of native English speakers, as they normally are taught the queens english. Brits from certain places are completely un-understandable (i.e. New Castle, Liverpool, etc etc); Way too much accents!

    Of course, only the Brits think they speak perfect English tongue.pngcheesy.gif

  4. It would be interesting to insert a truth serum into all drinking water on a worldwide basis.

     

    Yes, that would be extremely interesting thumbsup.gif  

     

    However (there is always a 'however....'), I am afraid there would be a lot of (verbal) fighting, as many  people will not be happy hearing the truth.... It might be very confronting and most people don't handle that very well whistling.gif

    What about the driver with a toddler sitting on his lap

    see that all the time,or standing up between the front 

    seats,an emergency brake and the kid would be 

    through the windscreen like a rocket,no matter how

    many laws,people will continue to do stupid things,it

    must be in their genes.

    As we all know, many Thais have little or no sense of consequence.

     

     

    I am more concerned and worried about the innocent 'bystanders' who get wounded or killed or worse by these completely irresponsible drivers. I do NOT care at all for these drivers as long they kill only themselves.

    Som Nam Na in that case angry.png
