The whole thing is rigged; the Stage has been set and the Farce has begun, now we just see how it plays out !

Ah yes; he wants to return to breath the same polluted air as his Brothers and Sisters ! Lol.

We've been using the same one for 16 years and never been asked for anything else. Can't understand what this thread is all about ?

PT are shooting themselves in both feet and whenever the next Election comes around they will be ignored by most ordinary Thais !

Keep an eye out for the ones arriving by Dinghy; they start with a trickle and later it becomes an Invasion !

Under the bed, under the floorboards, inside walls, cash , gold, i've seen it all here but the most wealthy keep thier dosh offshore and 'invisible', often invested in property abroad.

Comparing Scandinavia to Thailand is not exactly Apples for Apples is it . Pita is an Educated Man but also a very naive one or he wouldn't have entered the Political fray knowing full well that he had to be absolutely 'clean' and free of anything his Enemies might be able to use against him to stop him leading a Government Being Educated doesn't always mean being Smart and Street Wise !

Sadly a lot of Thai Males cannot be described as 'Normal' in the way we tend to think !

Following the National Practice of shooting itself in the foot !

Do you Love Me.... or is that a Canoe in your pocket ?

The only thing of economic interest to these twerps is getting their fingers in the money pie. Other than that the Countries fortunes can go to hell !

They never learn and they never will !

Seems to me that most Big C outlets are poorly managed; stock control just one area of concern but it's no surpise to me as having lived here for 16 years i have yet to find any Business well managed . When Thai's get to managerial status they appear to act like some kind of God, hardly ever 'at work' and more likely to be on the Golf Course or out with the Mia Noi. When they do pop into 'work' nobody dare say anything or make any suggestions on how to improve all the glaring shortcomings. Nothing is likely to change in my next 16 years !

In the long term they will eventually fall off !

Tip of the Iceberg; one that's been jutting up under the carpet for Decades. If it's not Teachers it's 'Uncles', Monks, Fathers and Grandfathers all trying to get inside young Girls underwear using one excuse or temptation or another. In our Local Villages such stories pop up at regular intervals and the majority of this 'News' is suppressed by embarrassed Families or indeed, the Girls themselves.

Yep; 'Teachers' in Wife's Family and circle of Friends all up to their eyes in debt. In the Staff Room they are scorned if they don't have a 'suitable sized ' new Car every year or so and many knowing how useless the Thai State Education System send their own Kids to International Schools or Universities at huge cost....money which they borrow. My Wife herself was a Midwife for 25 years, never borrowed a Baht but was, and is still in retirement, harrassed by the Banks to borrow huge amounts of money just because she was a Government Employee. As usual it's the Government and the Banks (mainly owned by Government) who are at the root of the problem..... along with the dreaded 'Face' problem !!

Or less than that if they get to eat shortly !

He will be there filling his greedy pockets until he croaks !

In Thailand it's not what you know but who you know that makes you successful !

Got one of them near me but the Benz belongs to a Geezer who visits his 'Gik' in the Shack from time to time and gives her a few Baht. Things ain't always what they seem !

To impress the Mia Noi you undersatand !

Or a Beer in hand ! People in our Local Villages bitch continually but when eating and drinking not a care in The World.

Another ''Let's wait until something happens '' story from the Hub of Zero Maintenance !

Anyone (apparently) running this country is in the hands of a 'Certain Person' plus the overwhelming power of the Big Five Families that control 95% of the business in the country and as these people are the ones owning all the combustible fields that are at the root of the problem then it is in their economic interests to ensure the burning continues. Anyone trying to make something different happen will find themselves looking down the Gun Barrel of a Tank !!
