Honda has motorcycle schools. For a newbie they have the basics theory etc. Then after getting the license I"d recommend doing the more advanced courses at the Safety Riding Park. There are other professional schools available as well.

I reckon if you live in a city find a motorcycle taxi driver who has been working the longest and pay him to teach you how to ride and stay alive in Thailand cities.????

Russia Is Taking Advantage of the Invasion-Stirred Migration Crisis

 

By creating migration waves that will destabilize Europe, Putin is harming the continent without directly using military force against countries outside Ukraine. As ever, Putin is happy to generate chaos that will hurt others—and to take advantage of it for Russia

It would be a lesson about an alternative universe because Kiev was never the capital of the USSR.

The city is still considered a sacred place for all Orthodox Christians in Russia and Ukraine. It was also the first capital of the Russian State, which at that time was known as Kiev Russ. From Kiev you move to magnificent Moscow, the present capital of Russia and its business and culture centre

Kiev was never the capital of the soviet union.

Oh dear !

OKyiv was the historical capital of medieval Kievan Rus' from 879 to 1240, and is now the largest city and the capital of Ukraine.

Many news sites are using ChatGPT now

 

Here's another example of how to use it >

You don't get it do you.

The phrase 'I love you' when spoken by a male to a female is 'phom rak khun'. Spoken by a female to a male it is 'chan rak khun'. However, when speaking about love, these terms are quite formal or traditional and aren't always used.

When was Kiev the capital of the USSR?

Hope the OP has loads of money then

Well that's why members here are are insisting on a good motorbike 1st class insurance cover. 

The thing is I was told I had free 1st class on my crf250l when I bought it new but when looked a the cover it was nowhere near as comprehensive as my 1st class truck cover.

Just now, brianthainess said:

Like the dead actress ? all victims/families will want to be paid out. What if the driver lives. ? 

If poor not a lot, the rich are usually covered by insurance or rich enough to pay off.

Depends on the circumstances.

No need to explain why this world is ruled by short term voters and cheap sale arguments. 

 

Why Im not surprised, when people do not understand organized chaos, is a weapon, weapon of strategy filled with emotions, same as the very same is surprised Ukraine was invaded, even history of other neighboring countries. 

I thought Putin wants his USSR'S old capitol back which is now called Kiev.

I think he is asking how to translate from English to Thai and confirm the translation is, in fact correct as most people who live here know what google translate from/to Thai often comes out as gibberish.

 

What I normally do is use google translate and then I feed the translated Thai sentence back to google to be translated back to English to check if it makes sense. Not bullet proof, but it works most of the time,

That's what Ozi was explaining and the best way get a near enough result.

You know, and I know this is how it works, and always have worked for empires and alliance's, because we need to secure the borders against our enemies and also the need to control available resources. Same for Russia who trying to secure their future position as a growing economic with available resources who feel they have been controlled, suppressed and limited for quite long now! 

 

Aand of course it is a chess game with to many players. 

 

When Turkey managed to become a member, anything is possible! 

 

Turkey a very much needed buffer against middle east!

Yeah Startrek type world gov is a long way off.

What are they using Ukraine for? Just another ridiculous conspiracy theory. Non NATO countries also give direct military aid to Ukraine, what are they using Ukraine for?

If you cannot see a wider picture then there's no point in explaining.

This is Thailand, the reality is a little different, how many parents have been prosecuted for allowing their kids to ride motorcycles, ?  

Not many mainly because there poor and have the  bike withheld by the police.

If a kid take a bike without the parents knowing if it's taxed it's insured as well so police can only find for no DL.

Where do you get motorcycle training in Thailand. Serious question.

Honda had places in Bangkok and there are schools about.

Not just the police extorting money,

no license= no insurance, and in the case of an accident huge hospital bills to pay for all those involved, dead, injured, damage to property, could amount to millions of baht.

Not much to pay if dead.

A few victorian style disciplinarian fathers on here, I wonder if they regularly administer a good spanking to their wayward adult daughters.

She's 18 and can do what she wants. it she can raise the money herself, then he has no leverage left regarding her decision , all he can do is advise her to ride carefully

Thai daughters and sons you are responsible for until 20 years old.

I guess you know better than the Ukrainians whether or not they are being used. Even ethnic Russian Ukrainians have overwhelmingly turned against Russia.

Why don't you ignore my thoughts and opinions I refer to NATO no-one else.

Apparently, you haven't been doing much reading for the past 2 years. The only reference I can find to that 13% figure is from a poll that Levada took before the war began.

Well lots of media sources out there when I search Google are dated so hence the word allegedly.

51% support mentioned for July 2566 I would say it's even lower than that.

Apparently at 22 years old she is also not an adult who should make their own decisions? A bit too much control. At some point you can give your kids advice but you can't tell them what to do anymore.

Yeah I would find it amusing to find out what my 3 daughters at 22 years old would say if I tried to be a control freak.
