No one is STOPPING. There are plenty of legacy manufacturers who put their fingers in their ears and covered their eyes and hoped EVs would go away. They didn't invest in the technology, they just hoped it would pass. They are still trying to get EV models out but they are not competitive. Looks at Nissan's EVs - pathetic. Look at Toyota's - pathetic. Very very expensive and pathetic. Meanwhile the Chinese brands invested heavily over the last 20 years and are so so many light years ahead that the legacy marques simply can't compete hence shelving projects as no one would buy them as they are too expensive and too inferior in spec and technology. It is almost too late for them to catch up now and many are partnering with the Chinese to license their tech. Toyota have literally invested millions and millions in anti EV propaganda hoping their brand name alone would see them through and the technology would go away. It hasn't, and it won't. Toyota markets "self charging hybrids" which only the most gullible would ever fall for and pay ridiculous money for. Expect to see many legacy brands either go under or merge with each other over the coming years.

I am neither a boomer - much younger sorry - and I don't have an EV. I am just not a MAGA anti-EV blinkered sheep. I have an open mind, I have tried EVs and can form my own opinion. What is your opinion based on exactly?

Another genius with a worthless comment.

And they are "just around the corner", right? Almost ready, coming soon. It's good to know the millions that Toyota spends on anti EV propaganda has reached at least one person. Would love to know more about the technologies and how they are going to destroy EVs. You would have a link I assume? How does compressed or or water power an engine? Keen to learn.

Literally no one who drives an EV on here cares.

Ok, in that case I apologise, I got it wrong.

I hope by "they" you are not talking about Toyota. So who are "they" and what are these alternatives?

Yes I did. And I was questioning your "I can't breathe "tactic". No doubt a hilarious reference to the death of George Floyd. Sad.

Yes.

You need help.

"Tactic"?

Because 90% of people on here have the same anti-Thai prejudice as you do. You still haven't answered why MONEY was the issue when their decision undoubtedly cost them much much more than landing at Changi would have done. I look forward to you explanation because no doubt you have thought it through. None of your 90%-ers have answered the question, they all just parrot the same cliche.

As said where? In your head? They had to pay for fuel to fly all the way back, they had to pay to land back at BKK, had to pay for the logistical nightmare of deplaning everyone, getting their bags off, storing them, looking after everyone for 6-7 hours (feeding and giving them drinks), assuming letting those people go who didn't want to be rescheduled, then bringing in a replacement plane, fuelling it, catering it, staffing it with an entirely new crew, then getting it a slot to fly out of BKK and fly in to SIN, then flying out. All to save a landing fee in Singapore. Do you see how ridiculous you sound? This forum is full of the most moronic anti-Thai posters who post without even thinking.

Tough men don't laugh.

ooooo we have an internet tough guy! Woooohoooo!! And one who proves that Americans don't understand sattire. Thanks for the laugh tough man.

Jonny, you are so far to the right that your "left of centre" is still far right. Jonny F "left of centre". The funniest thing ever.

What a joy you are.

Jeez, he's not just discovered an untapped Maya Bay and is promoting it to Hollywood producers. It's effing Sizzler - a low to mid level food chain that literally everyone knows about. Get a grip man. It's like getting upset about someone saying Pizza Hut are doing a deal - nooooooooo, don't ruin it! What's your purpose??

I just completed this quiz. My Score 50/100 My Time 102 seconds  

I really wish people wouldn't post AI summaries. They are long winded and useless and we can all ask Gemini/Grok/Perplexity. Also no vouching for the accuracy of anything they come up with.

Yeah, I have had screens replaced before (phone, not tablet) and got it done at the service centre in MBK. I don't remember the price but thought it was reasonable at the time for what it was (it was a curved screen so not cheap). Service was good.

Funny how people who live there or visit regularly say the transport is great, but the anti-Khan brigade who don't live there and don't visit say it is screwed. Interesting.

Thank you. It's nice to hear from someone with first hand experience of living there, so tired of the nonsense from people who don't and who don't even visit. I lived there until I moved to Asia and have lots of family there and friends and they are all happy with Khan and his achievements. I visit twice a year. We know why the right hate Khan and it is nothing to do with ULEZ. Londoners like him (not only "the Muslims" as is claimed).

Thought I would give you one more try to answer a direct question as I am curious how you can reconcile the fact he keeps getting re-elected by Londoners (who live in London) with your opinion (after two visits in 15 years) that everything is worse. But yet again you don't. Says it all.

Games? What games?? I countered a post saying Sadiq Khan had destroyed public transport and "ruined people's lives" with low emissions mandates. I ask you again as someone who doesn't live in London and has just admitted they've been there twice in 15 years - Why does Sadiq keep getting re-elected by Londoners then? Why are they happy with him if everything is worse as you claim?
