Special restaurant in Had Yai?
Plenty of good food in Hat Yai. I suspect his meal would have been in one of the many unassuming Thai-Chinese restaurants which are popular with Malaysian and Singaporean Chinese. And yes, Hat Yai fried chicken is indeed glorious, the most authentic is to be had from the evening food stalls near the mosque in Hat Yai Nai on Phetkasem Road between Sois 29 and 33. You'll also find the best roti here too, shop on corner of Soi 33. .

There are far better fail safe designs available that use passive nuclear safety systems which require no active intervention to make safe. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water.

Untrue, current research suggests there's no evidence of harm with MSG, the US FDA says: "The FDA considers the addition of MSG to foods to be “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS). Although many people identify themselves as sensitive to MSG, in studies with such individuals given MSG or a placebo, scientists have not been able to consistently trigger reactions." https://www.fda.gov/food/food-additives-petitions/questions-and-answers-monosodium-glutamate-msg

Pakistani family defends accused in high-profile German businessman murder
A 27 year old man of Pakistani origin with Thai citizenship is fairly unusual too. Maybe he's just copying the current Western fashion for ink.

When is life worth living?
Why would non-belief make anyone fear death? Surely religion with threats of eternal damnation would be more worrisome. Personally I'll just keep going, when I die, I die.

Calling the UK
Yes you need the app to call, but using Skype Out you can call any landline or mobile, the person you're contacting doesn't need to have Skype. Calls per minute to UK landline are 2.3¢ and 10¢ to a mobile. I just use the pay as you go option and buy Eur 10 credit every two or three years.

MYAirline Introduces Presence in Bangkok, Thailand
I struggled with that too, I can't imagine they're bigger than Malaysia Airlines nor Air Asia, and I doubt they're bigger than either Malindo or Firefly. But more competition the better, would be nice to have a second option on the Hat Yai - KL route.
