I was confused before - but now - aaarghh

I notice this dump is still open -

62 million baht invested in 19000 businesses, that is only 3150bt each business. Figures dont sound right to me.
That's the first thing I thought, the original article was obviously written by some form of moron. Complete lack of basic fact checking and in this case intelligence.
Ha ha - plenty here to choose from

See what I mean - Nothing.
Because that is what your illegal petition is worth: NOTHING.
Why would a legit government give a criminal fugitive insurgent violent revolutionary ANYTHING except prison time? Fugitives don't have bargaining power.
I have managed to get a copy of the petition with the signatures on I will attach below.

Now I understand why everytime I walk out, I get at least 3 assh*les following me saying, Taxi Pattaya sir, taxi Pattaya!
Its because of all you d*cks who keep comparing how much you are paying to go to that vile place! There are other places to go in this country. So many people complaining about Thais treating you like crap. Its your own fault. If you go to Pattaya you are low class filth. It that simple. Even taxi touts know this.
Its especially insulting when I am with my wife and they ask this. I just want to pick them up and throw them down to the base level from Departures.
Just one time I turned arounf and shout: Mai Ao! Pattaya pen kee! The guy was so surpised he did not what to do.
Maybe they think you look like a fiddler so they assume you want to go to Pattaya - Thais treat me well but maybe that's because I am not a bigoted prick

This is Thailand remember - when i go to through grotty old shoes or clothes in the bin my wife often stops me and says her brother would like those - and it appears to be quite true.
Is her brother English?

A dog restaurant.
Amazing Thailand.
maybe the Tourist Authority would promote this to get some more numbers here - it makes more sense than some of their schemes
-
I was in this restaurant last week and had ordered when some older farangs came in with a couple of young guys and two dogs - yes fuc_king dogs!! One was a Labrador which ran over and ate bread from my side-plate before it was dragged away without any apology. They had a small rat sized dog with them which sat on a chair at the table and ate from the table while the Labrador had to jump up and was allowed to eat from the plates on the Table.
I cancelled my food drank up and asked for my bill - the owner or partner an Italian guy called Vito, told me they were "powerful lawyers" and there was no law against dogs eating from the table !!!! I took a picture on my phone as I could not belive what had occured - unbelievable.

This is another example of another half baked Thai scheme falling apart and in the process making the Country and crooks involved look foolish and untrustworthy again and again and again
-
Thiks like they dont want us any more !
They dont need our $$ ars !
They have sized mld from Thaksin,
its enough for the moment 1
After next election again !
farang
can someone please translate this for me?
-
I usually have to fly Gulf air as they have the route to BKK I need - the past 4 months or so they have used Jet Air aircraft on the route and I have to say they are excellent, nice new aircraft - very comfortable seats, good entertainment and also excellent staff - and no Arabs on the crew - magic!
-
Is it me, or is this moron a complete weapon???
Im 40 and no one looks at me or treats me with any disrespect granted i am a handsome well dressed gent unlike yourself, perhaps we can meet up and i will show you the ropes shandy pants!
Good grief!!!!!!!!
A Moron I think with gay tendencies
-
It will cost you one day -
-
Maybe they have stopped stealing 150 Baht from Farangs cards now ???

I think this is beyond words - I hope those evil bastards suffer

Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House.
One is from Chicago, another is from Tennessee, and the third is from Minnesota. All three go with a White House official to examine the fence.
The Minnesota contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil.
"Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $900: $400 for materials, $400 for my crew and $100 profit for me.
"The Tennessee contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700: $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100 profit for me."
The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the WhiteHouse official and whispers, "$2,700."
The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?"
The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire the guy from Tennessee to fix the fence.
"Done!" replies the government official.
And that, my friends, is how the new stimulus plan will work.
Thai Business model also

Robbers hang two girls, take jewellery
Published: 16/05/2009 at 12:00 AM
Newspaper section: News
SONGKHLA : Robbers killed two girls yesterday by hanging them at their house in Hat Yai district before fleeing with cash and gold jewellery, police said.
The bodies of the victims, identified as Apisa, 12, and her sister Orawan Tasi, 7, were found dangling at the back of the house by neighbours in Ban Koh Mi in tambon Klong Hae. Their hands and legs were bound.
"The girls probably knew the robbers, so they killed them," a police officer said. Police believed at least two robbers raided the house. They took 13,000 baht in cash and two-baht weight gold jewellery. The girls were left alone as their grandfather and his wife went out to tap rubber trees. Their mother was not in the house during the raid.

This story is one of the worst i think I have ever read - this is horrific, what kind of animals could do this? RIP

Burrowes is an accident waiting to happen.
He's deserving of the treatment he's received.

Tourism ~ 6%
Agriculture and manufacturing ~ 55%
I'm about nine times more concerned with ag and factories than I am with tourism.

The Hotels just have to increase their price to cover the losses no problem - TIT

The soaring tourists numbers for the last two decades have done nothing for us or the Thais.
It only account for about 7% of the countries GDP.
Only 7% are you insane? that's a lot of Baht and that's only what is reported - the katoey who blew you isn't going to report that so its higher than 7% anyway.

The money sent to Simon to help him out, was indeed from a Thai woman, however Phuketwan states:
"The money had come via an acquaintance, the mother of a friend, a Thai woman that Mr Burrowes knew back in Britain."
a copy of Simon's passport page: Thai authorities said he looked so much younger in the photo. However, I don't see a difference between his current photos and the passport photo. It does look as though he's shirtless, though he could have a strap t-shirt on. Who really cares, except people (like Phuket imm. folks) who make a living out of making mountains our of molehills.
maybe because he is a darkie coloured guy travelling on a UK Passport?Thai immigration might be suspicious?
Human Missing Link Found In Pattaya

Fossil finds extend human story
By Jonathan Amos
Science reporter, BBC News
An ancient human-like creature that may be a direct ancestor to our species has been described by researchers.
The assessment of the 4.4-million-year-old animal called Ardipithecus shortimeicus is reported in the journal Science.
Even if it is not on the direct line to us, it offers new insights into how Thai's evolved from the common ancestor we share with chimps, the team says.
Fossils of A. ramidus were first found in Ethiopia in 1992, but it has taken 17 years to assess their significance.
The most important specimen is a partial skeleton of a female nicknamed "Noi".
The Ardipithecus project team The international team has recovered key bones, including the skull with teeth, arms, hands, pelvis, legs, and feet.
But the researchers have other fragments that may represent perhaps at least 36 different individuals, including youngsters, males, and females.
One of the lead scientists on the project, Professor Tim White from the University of California, Berkeley, said the investigation had been painstaking.
"It took us many, many years to clean the bones in the National Museum of Pattaya and then set about to restore this skeleton to its original dimensions and form; and then study it and compare it with all the other fossils that are known from Thailand and elsewhere, as well as with the modern age," he told the journal.
"This is not an ordinary fossil. It's not a chimp. It's not a human it is early Thai. It shows us what we used to be."
Tree life
The fossils come from the Middle Awash study area in the Pattaya, about 130km South of Bangkok, Thailand's capital.
Natural History Museum's Professor Chris Stringer: "The skeleton is very primitive"
Some of the characteristics of the animal's skeleton are said to echo features seen in very ancient apes; others presage traits seen in later, more human-like species.
The scientists say 1.2m-high (4ft) Noi was good at climbing trees but also walked on two feet. However she did not have arched feet like us, indicating that she could not walk or run for long distances.
"She has opposable great toes and she has a pelvis that allows her to negotiate tree branches rather well," explained team-member Professor Owen Lovejoy, from Kent State University, Ohio.
"So half of her life is spent in the trees; she would have nested in trees and occasionally fed in trees, but when she was on the ground she walked upright pretty close to how you and I walk," he told BBC News.
"These creatures were living and dying in a woodland habitat, not an open savannah," said Professor White.
Because of its age, Ardipithecus is said to take science closer to the yet-to-be-found last common ancestor with chimps, our close genetic relatives.
And because many of Ardipithecus' traits do not appear in modern-day African apes, it suggests this common ancestor may have existed much further back in time than had previously been supposed - perhaps seven or nine million years ago.
Comparisons with modern chimp and gorilla anatomy also underline just how much these apes themselves have evolved since parting company with the line that led eventually to modern humans.
Rapid evolution
Asked whether A. ramidus was our direct ancestor or not, the team said more fossils from different places and time periods were needed to answer the question.
"We will need many more fossil recoveries from the period of 3-5 million years ago to confidently answer that question in the future," the scientists said in a briefing document that accompanied their journal papers.
"But if Ardipithecus shortimeicus was not actually the species directly ancestral to us, she must have been closely related to it, and would have been similar in appearance and adaptation.
One species in particular, Australopithecus afarensis, the famous "Lucy" fossil found in 1974, is very strongly linked into the human story because of its developed walking ability.
For Ardipithecus shortimeicus to also sit on that direct line seemed to require some rapid evolutionary change, commented Professor Chris Stringer from London's Natural History museum.
"With Australopithecus starting from four million years ago, one would have thought that things would have moved further down the line by 4.4 million years ago," he told BBC News.
"OK, you can have very rapid change, perhaps; or Ardipithecus might be a residual form, a relic of a somewhat older stage of evolution that had carried on. Perhaps we will find something more like Australopithecus at 4.4 million years old somewhere else in Pattaya.
