Pretty low tech all round, not just the bomb, the reporting as well.............

The explosion caused a hole, which is two feet wide and five centimeters deep

Please make up your mind, are we using metric or imperial units.

One pound of dynamite

Has Thailand ever used imperial units of measurement???

Does anyone use dynamite??

I thought it was all high tech like C4.

As the saying goes, "You can't make a purse out of a sow's ear." Thats what makes Thailand a 3rd world country; like it or not. You can bet that other interests

are being protected.

While in other news...every other country in the world are staring migrate over to 4G. We might as well face it, Thailand will probably never get anything faster than EDGE...what a joke!!

Wonder why so many Thai people smile and laugh so much? Maybe because Thailand is the JOKE. The entire civilized world is learning this. Let's all laugh at the joke in which we live.

It would seem to me that the mother which took the money knew well what she was doing in a conspricary to prostitue her daugher, and yes she innocent until proven guilty as well. However she along with the frenchman should have also been arrested and arraigned in a thai

court on indictment.

No mother or father or any family memember should under thai law presuming there are statutes on the books already, which is highly unlikely to press charges against the mother as well.

Since people in this Country will consider money more important than other values, this and other misdeeds always happens more and more.

Yes I agree he pays the parents to abuse the children and they knew exactly what he was going to do with the child. Now the parents want to take civil action against him or more money. Double dipping. What action are Thai authorities going to take against the parents? They are just as guilty of rape as he is. They provided thier own children.

After living in Thailand for 10 years I am hardly suprised by this news.... It is the rule rather than the exception.. It is hard to imagine anyone being surprised by it.. It is business as usual

Well the story says they loaded the machine into the pick up and the key word here

is BEFORE they drove the pick-up away. Now that is commendable...Hopefully the

Thais will get that....

Just a couple of criminals going to work where there are plenty of opportunities (i.e., Thailand). I expect their length of stay in Thai prison may be a little longer this time around.

The buffet dinner will be for an outstanding job in corruction, and also for reducing

the load on the infrustructure by 400 people. Can;t you just see those nice big

trophies now.

So what will the Government of Thailand do to the Thai Recruiters of were involved in this conspiracy??????

I presume that the governemt will treat them to a buffet lunch at a 5 or 6 star hotel along the river for a job well done. The Penn Hotel has a very

nice one!

This the cumulative state over many many years of Thailands inability to product quality teachers, quality education programs for the majority of the poor in this country.

There has been enough money raised thru governement corruption to provided a first class skills and education e very child here in this country who begs on the streets in Bangkok or who lives in 90% of the country which lives in the sheer ongoing agony of poverty whos shelters are made of tin and wooden shacks.

Who ought to serve time are the people who knowning let this happen; the ones who have filled their pockets from

payoffs etc etc etc

Low-lifes dealing in the misery of humanity. I would lock them up and throw away the key! What is even more sad is the willingness of Thai workers to give up their families and leave to be able to support their spouse and siblings. Then being handled by these animals, makes me really sick! This is nothing short of human trafficking and slave labour.

No doubt he is talking about his own course...Let him first serve his time in prison first. The the only course at present he is entitled to under Thai law I presume.

I wonder if he really believes what he's saying?

Come on now, let's look at the positive side: All that money that was saved by putting this whole thing up with minimal costs bought some nice cars and houses for all the officials involved.

The question presents itself once again: STUPID, or EVIL. I go with evil this time

There are still a lot of OLD FARTS around here in Thailand that don't have anything better to do than to complain about this and complain about that.! It gives them something

to do besides play with themselves.

More pseudo social gibberish from the watchdogs of social morality.

All the OTHER girls were doing the same, she just joined in,

and the pundits are having a slow news day.

We can see 'more' at most any place in Thailand most any day.

She's got nice legs, no point in hiding them, when all around are not doing the same.

When it Rome.

I DON'T think I could imagine that happening..That would be like seeing hayle' s comet twice in 76 years:whistling:

This had to happen. It probably a good thing. You'll "hopefully" see performance of voip, web mail, etc.. improve. Torrents are drain especially since most peers exists outside of TOT, if you look at an average torrent drainer using a steady 1mbit the economics just dont make sense. I cant even buy full transit routes on 1000mbit commits for < 550baht/mbit (or anywhere near that). So hopefully TOT stop, separate, or traffic shape them.

Ideally I'd like to see torrent drainer pay a massive premium. Part ignorance for most windoze users as the systray hides the little U, but wow imagine how fast the internet would be in Thailand without torrent drainers.

Ends rant.

Well a good old fashion war would be a BIG boost to the Tourist Industry. All those nice people at the 100s of travel agencies would be tickled pink. And what about the scammer trade at the airport. The Thai police might just have a stroke.

They like the watermelon there!
