he family involved in the incident, particularly the attacker's wife, defended their actions by accusing the nurse of disrespect. Disrespect should only be allowed if aimed at others. In this instance, it was aimed at him. (I must find a way to reword this) Hehe So yes, disrespect is part of the culture here. Particularly on the roads. Erratic Driving, parking, reckless speeds, ignored traffic laws, enhanced exhaust noise. But then how can anyone dare disrespect 'ME'....

Why is All the Hate Towards Russia and Not China?
Andre0720 replied to Yagoda's topic in Political Soapbox
Again, what is it in the word 'seem' that you do not understand? It does not mean that it proves anything. But many Thais believe so, as supported by many facts in property ownership. Might not be true. Same as the fact that they believe in Buddha. Might not be true. -
Why is All the Hate Towards Russia and Not China?
Andre0720 replied to Yagoda's topic in Political Soapbox
Seem. Anything in that word that you do not understand? New condo owners... As an example... In the Kamala, Kathu District, Phuket area, Russians have been a significant force in the foreign condo market, particularly in leasehold properties, with Russians dominating in terms of both units and value purchased. -

Foreigner Assaults Thai Man in Road Rage Incident in Pattaya
Andre0720 replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
This video perfectly illustrates that foreigners, typically the fit ones between 22 and 32 years old, who think that they are above the law, because they are stronger, and become more of a danger on Thai roads. These foreigners show no respect for other drivers on the roads, using bigger and faster motorbikes. Which compounds the dangers that they cause... -
Why is All the Hate Towards Russia and Not China?
Andre0720 replied to Yagoda's topic in Political Soapbox
Might very well be because the Russians seem to have more success... What can the Jews themselves do to minimize the hostility that they face? I gave a one word answer: 'Fail'. Because as long as you succeed, you are going to be hated. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/49wAPLj9XBs Thomas Sowell on Jew Hatred: Envy of Success Explained in Brian Lamb Interview -
When Buddha is there to protect..... Met a Thai friend some weeks ago. Was telling me that he had a bad accident, and strangely resulting in only minor injury. Attributed to being protected by Buddha. Beliefs, very dangerous as they are. Prevents one from realizing that if Buddha was there to protect, the accident would never have happened. All these motorbike drivers, no helmets. Difficult to understand. But when 'beliefs' are factored in, then it starts to make sense. All efforts by authorities to convince Thais to wear helmets, have failed..... Getting a bit better though. Perhaps those who do not give drinks and food to Buddha on the sides of the roads, are getting worried sometimes... Or is it that these protections show no strength and masculinity, no virility. But then women seem to wear helmets less often. Oh yes, factor in that it is the women who give the food and drinks to Buddha on the side of the roads... They are already covered...

Seems like just about nobody knows about wine in the US. And Trump is no exception.☺️ He is holding his glass exactly, but exactly the way it should not be held. But then perhaps he is a cognac drinker, since that would be the right way to hold a cognac glass. Amuses me to watch all these movies made in Hollywood, by rich people. All the same, holding the glass wrongly. Then it shows that people with high intelligence and having great fortune, like Trump and actors, in the US, will not include a sommelier course in their general knowledge.

Dog Barking Drama: When Neighbourly Conflicts Turn Threatening
Andre0720 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
My good friend back home had a small dog, one of those that will bark at anything. So since he was in a civilized country, instead of blaming people for being annoyed by the sound of a barking dog, he bought one of those 'bark collar', which controlled the useless barking noise. Electric Bark Collars Pet-Tech is proud to present our advanced and effective electric collar dog solutions available in Australia. Designed with your pet's safety in mind, our electric bark collars utilize sound, mild static correction (shock), and vibration to curb unwanted barking. With customizable levels to suit your dog's sensitivity, our products are rigorously tested to ensure they're both safe and effective. Explore our selection of electric dog collars to find the perfect fit for your furry friend. Respect and politeness is what it is all about. What is even more bothersome is that all these owners of barking dogs, selfish as they are all, (or mostly), were taught to repeat ad nauseam all these annoying sounds and gestures, that are meant that they do possess empathy, politeness, and respect. -
She has started asking for money
Andre0720 replied to Magpiefan1892's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Not all that you will read here will acknowledge the culture in Thailand. Many Northern girls come to Phuket to find a man. Many were told by their mothers not to take a Thai man, because they are typically irresponsible. The culture in Thailand regarding relationships, and sex, is quite different than what we see in other countries. In Thailand, there are three governing principles driving so many actions. Saving face. Taking care. Generate money. So many girls will go to bars, trying to find a partner, at a time when they are attractive. Those who cannot have success, just add more make-up, and become professional bar girls. Not promising. But that is not the type of girl that you have encountered. But the old trick of a mother at the hospital is quite ominous. Thai girls are just more easy to try for a one night stand. Certainly does not make them 'whores'. Not in Thailand, as looking for a good man, to take care of, while generating money, is not frowned upon in Thailand. Part of the culture. Otherwise what to think about meeting a girl in a bar in Europe, and finishing in bed. Same. Except that in Europe, ladies are not in need of money as much, and no need to drop some money on the night table. In some instances, it leads to a steady relationship, same as for Thailand. And one must understand that a steady relationship in Thailand also includes a salary for the lady. My good friend here met this bar girl some years ago. He brought her home one night, after paying the bar fine, and left a 1k on the night table. The next night, he went to the same bar. The lady was there also. He just drank a few beers. Then this lady came to see him and told him: "I really like you, but if you do not take me tonight, I will have to go with another man, as I need money to support myself and my daughter." So he took her home again that night. Spent some 10 years together, and she was still with him when he got sick, and she took care of his burial. So, yes, many stories in Thailand, some good ones, and many bad ones. But she might have realized that you would not be able to live together, and see if it could lead to a long term one. Nobody knows. But the old trick of the sick mother in the hospital, well.... You might already have seen through that... So if you could not be the one that she could be taking care of, well, let's try to generate some money... Good luck. -
10,000 Baht Cash Handout Announced for Thai Youth Aged 16 to 20
Andre0720 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
On the positive side. A bit lacking on so many forums. It will stimulate the economy, as many Motorbikes shops will be busy modifying exhausts, to stimulate (again) speed and noise. It will stimulate the economy, it will increase the workload of those illegal cigarette vendors, (where no ID is required), and perhaps some Super Cheap Minimarts as well. It will stimulate the economy as some of the thousands of cannabis vendors which certainly have some difficulty getting a share of the market. Well, certainly no one could do worse in the field of responsible spending than Biden. But let me think now. Is this last comment positive or negative.... Certainly someone will help me out on this.... -

However, his visit took a dark turn, leading him down the path of illegal drug distribution, Oh yes, certainly came here for the beaches and Buddhist calm. Then looks like he accidentally turned in a dark alley. Only racists would hold such accidental actions against him. -

Did Trump bring shame upon the US with his Zelensky lecture?
Andre0720 replied to spidermike007's topic in Political Soapbox
Totally agree with you. Zelensky was not fit to do this job, after all these years of failure. The US is there to help. And then finally Zelensky understood that he was inapt for the job. Resigning. Hopefully someone of Trump's caliber will replace Zelensky. So peace can be finally achieved.... Thanks for pointing that out...
