Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra insisted yesterday that all decisions on the Cabinet reshuffle were entirely her own and that her brother, former PM Thaksin, had nothing to do with the matter...........Meanwhile, Sakda Kongpet said he knew he would be given the post of deputy education minister after he met with Thaksin in Hong Kong before New Year's Day.

"I flew to meet Thaksin and subsequently learned about my appointment in advance," he said.555555555555

Tsk tsk, give the girl a break.

Maybe she told her brother about it last year and he let the cat out of the bag.

Never shopped there so I couldn't 'carree' less.

I don’t think it would be unrealistic for MR Bean to play the leading role after what’s been written.

and with Teddy playing the lad's part there'll no issues with child labour laws or work permits.

We are working hard on this case. We don’t need any help from the Crime Suppression Division or the Department of Special Investigation. We are quite able to handle this case by ourselves.

"Round up the usual suspects"

20% of the 2 trillion THB for Chiang Mai. Oh dear me

and 30% into the pockets of others.

The son of a friend of mine quit a good job overseas so he can be with his family when the end comes later this year.

Thailand would be a boring old place without its beliefs and customs though eh.

I just thought they were too lazy to pluck. I didn't know it was a gay thing.

I'll ask my mustachioed BIL next time I see him.

I'm pretty sure he's not gay but.

Remember, that harmless-looking lizard may have been a stunning girl in a previous life. How would she feel if she saw your shrivelled-up "doo-daa"?

It's still going to be bigger than anything she'll find among the jingjok boys.

Well named.

Jinda said her family sought no money or assets from the "groom" - as she described Thongchai; the families speak of Chumwit as the "bride" - beyond the gold-and-diamond wedding ring, because love and understanding were more important than money.

But seriously, I hope this tradition catches on.

I don't know about taking jobs from Thais but the 'lender' who services our village is an Indian on a 6 month visa. When his visa is up his brother takes over for the next 6 months.

and our ice-cream vendor is a Bangladeshi also on a 6 month visa.

The police sealed off all the exits but the culprits escaped through the entrances.

I wonder under what authority they can order a foreign company to return their money for products already delivered.

Under the ancient German law of Habeas Aeroplanum.

Steyr-Daimler Puch is an Austrian company based in Graz, Austria. It is not German.

Well, some of us got the joke.

Yes, เงิน is a long vowel, thank you for pointing this out.

No! It has a short vowel!

.

Listen to it, it's a long vowel.

It's the same sound as when saying 'you' or 'your' etc in English.

The edges of my tongue touch my upper molars at the set up and moves off them slightly when producing the 'yaw' sound. The tongue stays in contact with the molars when making the 'yin' sound and touches the upper front teeth at the gums for the 'n' part .

I can't think of any 'yin' soundind words in English.

I was a Jehova's Bystander for a while.

Sort of like a Witness but I didn't want to get involved.

Geez, lighten up.

I'm LMAO at "Sangkhaloke" antique chinaware bit.

Talk about hit the nail on the head.

More on the story, it looks for all the world like an honour killing to me.

The first pictures emerged today of seven people gunned down as they opened their presents on Christmas morning by an estranged husband and father wearing a Santa suit.

Aziz Yazdanpanah, who had separated from his wife in March, is believed to have opened fire at an apartment in Grapevine, Dallas - just after the family opened their gifts - killing seven people including his children and wife before turning the gun on himself.

From another source I read the father was a control freak who checked his daughters mobile phone records and nailed the bedroom window shut, that's before he became estranged from his wife. He then turned up at their home dressed as Santa Claus and murdered the entire family, all because he disapproved of his daughter choosing a boyfriend from a different culture.

Why, because of the surname?

Just another jilted husband going nuts.

The Thai Opinion page may not exist in 12 months.

Opinions will be abolished along with the free press.

Those members who are interested enough to try and learn a bit of Thai find this site most helpful.

As for the others,

Can buy it any time at any place that doesn't give out receipts.

The red ones are owned by the BMTA, the blue ones are privately owned but are contracted by the BMTA for route service. I would assume that the private ones in addition to collecting fares also get some subsidy money (render) from the BMTA for operating the route otherwise I doubt that they would make a profit with the cost of diesel these days

So, could one assume that the red ones would be a safer ride than the blue ones?

The merry old land of Oz.
