So he was right then, overcharged by nearly 40Kbht.

Police made him pay 14,500bht. 

 

Nice girlfriend too, he didn't know what ringing the bell meant, and she didn't tell him.

Probably thought he was "loaded".. ????

Is it just me? Or are others feeling a little cynical? It's not the Thai way to suddenly admit unequivocal defeat to foreigners.

It's not "unequivocal defeat by foreigners", they received many complaints and are reviewing and hopefully resolving the issue. Get a life.

They did not complain when one temple had a statue of David Beckham next to Buddha.

I'm sure they had their red Fanta in hand. 

Some things never change. 

Stop Thai fishermen from throwing all their trash into the sea before heading into port would be a nice place to start! Not to mention oil changes...

There will be flooding in Bangkok as surly as the sun will raise. TIT. 

Good riddance!

No problem, the new mega project high speed train will be arriving shortly.???? Help is on the way.

so the contract goes to the lowest bidder?

That's why CP chicken literally waits until last minute to hand in the bid. ???? 

Simple solution, don't litter. Can't seem to get it through their thick heads. 

Happy times! 

Last week they needed emergency assistance because of the big drought. It's the same story every year. It's obviously not a priority. 

Makes me wonder what is the percentage of graduates from these high percentage rate loan programs? ????

Yes, this is one of the first signs of what's going to be a long drawn out death for the economy.

 

There's always an excuse when it first begins, not so much later when this kind of thing becomes more widespread.

Not to mention a massive investment by CP chicken group in importing the Chinese made MG. Selling like hotcakes. ????

Coincidentally didn't they just take delivery of the first batch of armed vehicles? Oops sorry wrong thread.

The Thai Navy did. When the Japanese invaded Thailand on 8 December 1941, the Thai Navy fought them for nearly five hours, until they were instructed by their government to stop.

Capitulate? Never.

5 hours of negotiation? Wow, must have been many casualties on both sides.

director of the school has set up a committee of inquiry that will report its findings within seven days.

Set up a committee? Seven days? Oh boy, that's a major investigation to do in just seen days! ????

If you think that's bad, you should see the one they use to transport children to and from school! Criminal negligence and child endangerment come to mind. ????

Moving to a quiet Soi is no guarantee that some one won't move in and start the party up. Your best bet is to try to find a house that sits away from a village.

I have lived in a number of places with noise. I just accept it and accept the fact I can do nothing about it and the problem goes away. the noise is still there but it is no longer an issue to me.

Had a wife who accepted nothing fought every thing. Even complained about the noise I made when I changed the page in a book I was reading. Result she was very unhappy very hard time sleeping.

Yes, just grin and bear it. Sleep is not a right it's a privilege. Be thankful.

Anything before midnight is allowed by law as far as I know. If it keeps happening around 2 or 3 AM the police will help you..

True and anytime after 5:30 am is okay too! Thai's only require 5 hours sleep per day. Ask them if they can turn it down a bit and you are in for a violent confrontation. Best thing you can do is move. Welcome to Thailand. ????

Absolutely!

Well you must have seen him do it so why didn't you ask him?If you didn't see him do it how do you know he did it?

True, most likely it was his mommy. Never assume that it was not the mommy. Also I suspect his mommy forgot to properly fasten his helmet.

not wearing a seat belt and not paying a fine on time is worth one point.

So they will be installing seat belts on the converted pickup trucks and 40 year old vans they use for transporting children to school? Safety first after all. ????
