They should, but will not deport these Guides, fearing some retaliation from the Dragon.

More likely, in the true Thai style, the Guides will be transferred to inactive positions, in another part of Thailand.

Usual thing. The Buses are used by the less influential people and the Bus Station is situate on prime development land. So to hell with the needs of the People. There's lots of money to be made!

Why not sell it's low cost subsidiary Thai Smile and the shareholding in Nok Air plus Thai Engineering which could be snapped up by Haeco who would have greater competency to maintain Thai's aircraft to a higher air worthiness standard minimising the need for so many back up planes?

Hope the Lady has told all her Friends. It might encourage young Thais to take life a bit more seriously.

You have to keep the Bank Manager sweet!

That's what you get cheating a poor Bangkok Taxi out of fare!

Why were the Thai Police so naïve? This story should never have been made public, but rather referred to the Thai Foreign Ministry in Bangkok to be sorted through the usual bilaterals.

Stupidity reigns as ever!

May not be much cheaper but CP would rather get end users into their other interests like Tesco Lotus and 7-Eleven. Yes CP have investments everywhere.

CP Makro is primarily for the Trade who use the wholesaler as a one stop shop; not just for beer but almost everything else to fill the shelves. In the UK, Makro will not allow non trade into their stores, but with the hammering they are presently getting from Costco, who are sweeping across the Country, that may change.

Hope they deported him on arrival. His behaviour, if true is a disgrace to the country he has come from and the land of smiles continues to attract drunks and dropouts.

I am keeping Win7. I am running win10 in a virtualbox. For those who have not tried it, it is easy and the net is full with useful tips. So far, I have seen no value in running Win10. Another example of giving the consumer something they dont need; in this case, for microsoft to set up a fairly enclosed but financially useful monopoly as Apple has done with their system and Apps.

Should have gone to Spec Savers!

Makes our Government in the UK look not so bad after all.

This seems to be a copy cat tactic sweeping the Country with the Thief thinking the Police will just release him/her with a smack on the wrist but no excuse. Charity of one kind or another is Thai Culture and no one needs to starve. Simply, theft is theft.

In the circumstances Russia chose not to ask Sweden for assistance. They would prefer to allow their Crew to perish than admit the Sub's existence in Swedish Waters and risk censure in the United Nations. The Russians probably hoped this vessel would lay undiscovered for many years to come. Bad luck!

More ducking, diving and a conspiracy theory. Why bother giving this Man more publicity. All stories lead to invention.

Good concept but it's down to economics. It needs volumes which can be sold and quickly before this type of beer goes off. It's not the same as Thai bottled and canned beer which can be stored for Months.

Once they get it right and attract Customer loyalty prices will tumble.

Don't do that! Allowing an XP PC onto you network is inviting infections across the other workstations as this O.S is very vulnerable to viruses.

Phu Chee Fa, Chiang Rai Province. Take blankets!

Smarter than Detroit but Bangkok does not have so many "hookers".

As read great and most people would be in agreement but Thailand has laws adequate to prosecute most offences.

Let's hope the Police don't just laugh at the General and ignore the offences. ENFORCEMENT IS EVERYTHING and should also apply to the Police also for failure to do their duty.

Just make sure you have Kaspersky Internet Security installed on your PC and Phishing will not get through. Main problem is that many Thais and Farangs alike are too stingy to pay for proper protection.

Usual thing. An inherently unstable pickup truck being driven to fast on a wet road. Pickups are for business and need good loads in the back to help stabilise them. However much Manufacturers try to tart them up as sports vehicles they remain as of very old technology with live rear axles and leaf springs; no match for modern front wheel drive vehicles. The only real advantage for pickup vehicles is the under body sold steel chassis.

The Thai Government needs to set a level playing field by increasing the VAT on Pickup trucks to discourage their use by private individuals. It would not increase the costs to Companies who could reclaim the VAT through their business accounting.

Give 30 minutes Internet Access time on the Network against each bill. Easily managed.

A Friend who flew Norwegian Air said it was very good but very restricted on leg room. Does anyone know what the seat pitch is?

Folks,

Do be a bit more tolerant. You have to give the Thai People a chance to spend the money they haven't got!

Is it possible that through the "back channels", which are never known to the public, that the U.S. told Thailand: "Buy the Chinese subs and we will screw you every possible."

And it's possible that the earth will be invaded by aliens tomorrow. But it's not very likely.

Nevertheless, it's a pity, I kind of like the idea of Thailand wasting their money on chinese junk.

You mean the type with sails on. That should be much cheaper.
