My personal opinion is certainly that Trump is no angel. However Clinton to me represents all that is wrong in American politics. She is a liar and a thief, and I truly look forward to the general election when all the facts about her sordid past are aired out by Trump. Attack ads on Trump ??? Don't throw stones if you live in a glass house.........

Attack ads on Trump are as easy to put together as cute kitten segments. There's endless material.

The Republican Attack Machine (RAM) and now Trump,have been going through HRC's garbage pail for decades, and they don't have much to show for their tireless efforts to try and find mud that sticks. If she had stolen a candy bar at 8 yrs old, the RAM would have shouting tape loops of it running 24/7.

Digging dirt on Hillary is like shooting fish in a barrel....

Start with Whitewater, work up to their theft of White

House furnishings, and then move onto the cash cow

of the Clinton Foundation. So far Trump has not been

running against her, so has kept his powder dry. When

the general election starts, the fur is really going to fly....

Just amazing that this dog has been woken up.....

This case is a serious blight upon the IQ of the

military leadership. I would have thought that they

would have wanted this wound to heal up and be

forgotten. But apparently the thought of receiving

compensation from Britain has brought out a bit

of greed, so time to reopen this case. I am sure

that Porntip is having some sleepless nights now.

A waste of time. This will go nowhere since the army was one of the main purchasers... and we know that they can do no wrong!

Kind of what I was thinking. This was a massive money

maker for the military. The military is currently in charge. Why in

the world would would this old chestnut reemerge ???

Thailand really is amazing.....

This killed me military and experts in the same line , to take over Pattaya, more like ruin it.

Do not under estimate the military...

IMHO I am convinced of the accusations that the farther of the current mayor is the head of an organised crime syndicate and hopefully the military will now be able to do something about the organised crime like the Jet Ski and Baht Bus mafia.

I always considered the fact that the mayor of Pattaya is the son

of the Godfather of Chonburi, as the best inside joke in the

city. And people wondered why corruption was so rampant

in Pattaya....

Used to be bit of running joke if you had a jealous

Thai girlfriend, or even a possessive bar girl, they

would make the sick threat about cutting off my

penis and feeding it to the ducks. I would look them

in the eye, and tell them I would instantly kill them

if they did that. At first they thought I was joking,

and then quickly realized I was not. So they never

again uttered that ridiculous cutting off the penis threat .....

After 14 years in Thailand I am pretty clued up on the endless

Thai men who want to be women for some reason. However I

am a bit confused at what I am looking at here. The photo is of

a somewhat effeminate man. So I am looking at a woman

who wants to be a man ?? Guess I am more used to tough

looking toms out with their cute dee girlfriends.. What the hell

is the difference between a tom and a transgender man ??

Sigh, I miss the good old days.......

The bosses keeps reshuffling and moving top brass around in a musical chairs games, and yet,

those parlors and other dens of inequities continue to operate in impunity, it seems that this action

is the standard move and answer by the big brass to the persisting problems, prosecute, fine and

jail those guys who fail to do their job might bring better results rather than transferring personal around......

Chess comes to mind ........ lol

...........................snakes and ladders!

Whack a mole.....

Can't be bothered to read every post, <snip>

I wonder how many people realise it is now 2016, and not 2015 - the date of the initial post.

Haha but still timely, and probably will be 50 years from now...

Can't be bothered to read every post, but hopefully

some thinking person has brought up the fact that

90% of Thai prostitution is for the benefit of Thai men.

The image of a fat farang waddling down the street

with a skinny gogo girl is a common one, but not

really that accurate when it comes down to what is

really happening in Thailand. But it certainly suits the

Thai " leaders" who enjoy the services of underage

girls at their favorite soapy, but try to deflect blame

on those evil farangs......Too funny for words.

What gender is on the transgenders ID card ?

As per Thai law, he is a man. Putting a wig on,

taking hormones, and having bolt on tits does

NOT make a man into a woman. His being able

to compete against women is unfair, and only

possible in the land of loony liberals , America.

Have not researched it, but pretty sure trannies

cannot compete against women in events in

Thailand......

The government of Thailand faces an ongoing dilemma. First

off, it is important to preserve the river of money that flows from

prostitution places like this one into the proper pockets of

officials. But at the same time to preserve appearances, they

must do minor crackdowns once in awhile. So a sacrificial

lamb massage parlor is picked out, a bit of noise is made,

and then everything gets back to normal. Pretty funny to watch

year after year. .....

"So don't think that all monks or all temples display good conduct. Conduct can be rotten to the core. Open your hearts and use your intellect to discover the truth."

Is this guy muslim?

Nope.. he is not .. this is just a realistic thing to say. Can fault him for many things but these comments are valid.

These comments are taken from the book of Issara the mad monk who is doing his best to bring down Thai Buddhism. Issara and Suthep with their facist agenda are restarting, resetting and reforming to suit the elite's roadmap for continued control of the masses.

In the international headlines Thai Buddhism is portrayed as a laughing stock.

Thai Buddhism has always been a laughing stock, mainly used to

fleece money from common people..... Buddhism is a series

of teachings, none of which Thai people follow. To bring a smile

to your face, look up the five precepts of Buddhism, then look

around at what Thai people actually do. It will bring a smile

of irony to your face.... :-) What has happened at the Tiger

Temple is simply a more extreme example.

Ban them all from Pattaya city. Bangruray did. The place is a much nicer place now. Less crime and no! bullshit like this.

How dare you give yourself the right to make such a general judgement against a whole community of people,whosoever those people are.Do I need to remind you of Shakespear'saying"only fools generalise"?The lady boys you are asking to be "banned" are not a punch of steert dogs or stray cats,they are PEOPLE,who have RIGHTS.One of those rights is to be judged on individual basis.That means punishing each and every individual for whatever violation of law he,or she,commits

,not the whole community or family.Do you accept to go jail because some family member of yours was busted with drugs?Do you accept that your child be banned from school because some other child,who belongs to your community,broke a class room glass window,or something?Collective incriminilisation of a whole community of people is totally racist and inhuman.Germans are Nazis,why?because Hitler was.Muslims are terrorists,why?because Bin Laden was.American white police men are racists,why?because Mark Furhman was.Do you see how easy,and dangerous,collective judgment is?

Wonder which way a "vote" would go on this one.

I vote ban.......

I am sorry in my thinking with this because I don't know the answer with any certainty. But given Thai unique outlook on accomplishments, one has to ask if she actually climbed this herself, or if she had paid experienced climbers to get her the way up to the top?

The mountain climbing term is " short roped" . In essence you pay

a whole bunch of money, and the guides virtually drag you up

to the top. Not sure if that is what she did. In the Everest tragedy

written in the book Into Thin Air, a New York socialite was

short roped to the top.

There are good monks, and I use the term loosely, bad monks and heinous monks. These monks fall into the last category. I hope there is a law whereby the courts can nail every one of them.

They should be prosecuted for 'bringing Buddhism into disrepute'. This heinous activity above and beyond wearing a 'stupa shaped' dress or Buddha images on bloody T shirts. How on earth could this have been allowed to go on for so long?

Easy. A news report here in America just said the temple

made 6 million dollars a year. So clearly a portion of that

money went into the pockets of government officials who

are supposed to control this business. And yes , everyone

with half a brain knew this temple was trafficking tigers

to China.......

I am somewhat surprised that Prayut, with one man rule complete

with re-education camps, cannot handle a few monks. I would be

fascinated to learn who the moneyed elites are who have tapped

into the river of money the tiger temple produces, and how they

are able to keep protecting it.

An old and well known story. A girl I knew had one of those

late night bars that used to spring up on Sukumvit. She told me

that she paid money directly to the police in order to run

her bar there. So I assumed this is a widespread practice.

Surprised to see a " crackdown" on this practice.......

I would have thought with the current one man rule in Thailand,

that the standard government molly coddling of wealthy elites who commit

crimes would be over ridden. But apparently not..... Whenever I see

a photo of the wimpy red bull heir, a smile comes to my face when I see

the irony of him having the nickname Boss... :-)

I truly look forward to their return to England, when the true

story of how they feel will come out.... Plus am sure the Mirror

will pay handsomely for the story. Also am sure the part where

they tell how much the Thai government paid them to say they

would return to Thailand should be interesting....

What a sickening video...... My opinion of Thai men continues to

sink to lower and lower levels. Kicking a granny unconscious who

is already on the ground ? Sucker punching the other Brit ??

Well I guess the tourists should be lucky once they were already

unconscious on the ground, that the Thai " men" did not continue

to kick them in the head as the Thai security men like to do outside

Pattaya bars...

Thailand is no country for old men......... These young Thai men

are like jackals who attack the weak, and run away from the

the strong. Well unless there are 10 jackals against one farang.

I guess incidents like this will not affect Chinese tourism, but

am fairly certain it will make a dent in Brit tourism given the

airplay it has received. At this point the best spin control

Thailand could do is have a quick trial and put the attackers

in jail for 20 years for attempted murder. But any long term

expat knows that will never happen.......

The PM seems to have pretty low understanding of women.

These women want to be unwrapped.....

Western culture like half-naked lady boys, Walking Street, Pattaya...

That was my first thought. Western culture seems pretty

tame compared to the sex in your face culture that

Thailand is the world leader in. I am still positive that there

is no Thai word for hypocrisy ....

Knowing Thailand somewhat well, I suspect the role of

AMLO will be to cover up and assist any Thais named

in the Panama papers.......
