  1. no evidence at all. He can tell them to ******* his ******. Posts on social networks are not sufficient evidence. Unless they had marked banknotes and 3 (three) witnesses .... Saw it million times and not only TH. Unless he was stupid enough to confess that he can deny in court
  2. What evidence? I used to work at Pantip plaza with Thai partner. You have zero chance to get compensation from the shop - there's no legal contract between you and them, you brought faulty comp. and claim something. Sad, but true. lawyers? Good luck with it! What is the damage you estimate? Is it more than 50K?
  3. Good point, though. I don't think that judging foreigners outlooks is their primary (or secondary) responsibilities, but I saw few times in CW when they just denied service to the american dude for exactly same reason. Unfortunately they got the power and it won't hurt just to bend over a bit.
  4. Indeed! another case of de-humanizing. this time its Al Jazeera out of everything I can only begin my day news with them, they do have much higher standards, while some channels turn into complete ____________ : France24, Euronews, CNN, DW, BBC and even Fox
  5. Well, Trump claimed Supermicro servers had chinese spyware "pre-installed into its hardware" and banned it from US gov. There are very "bright'n'smart" heads indeed
  6. Brilliant and very clear. Too many fear mongers and now - complete instruction "how to do". Sadao and something Bazar - are the most polite and kind checkpoints, meanwhile Aranyapratet (???) - the worst. Been denied there once. Yes, I saw a couple in Dong Muang denied by the officer just "because he didn't like their attitude" - I guess they were pretty drunk. Some baltics according to their look and very thick accent
  7. I wonder what is SiamBioTech doing? Why Thai Universities are closing down faculties? (don't ask, I have first hand info) even Thammasat? What's left? Chula Mahidoll KMUTT Kasetsat for the country of almost 70 millions? Seriously? Oh, there's something in Chiang Mai Uni That's all PS: picture taken from Tammasat this spring: sleeping village.
  8. @TallGuyJohninBKK indeed! I ordered a bulk at Ebay from 3M. I'd say it is quite hard to breathe as N95 are for short time usage, not for a whole day. Also those are costly ( btw, they made fakes here, almost everywhere.
  9. he had dual-head eagle and balalaika behind his back. Also he was dancing "babushka" while stealing.
  10. FYI I haven't seen so many "N95 masks" packed in China Town! During SARS, MERS, last "pandemic" years. Now it is massive manufacturing of fake masks - mind blowing!
  11. 10 Commandments were explicitly given to Moshe Rabeinu (aka Moses) to pass it to jews while wondering around something size of Chonburi for 40 years. The rest (not "the chosen ones") got lighter version of 7 commandment - yes, 3 omitted. However Jews made even more rules, restrictions and regulations and observing (orthodox hard-core) jews have to follow hundreds of them. So hanging that 11"x14" poster in schools is sheer profanity of either judaism or christianity.
  12. spray binary neuro-something over their underwear? drop polonium into their tea? or something even more sinister?
  13. Yes, also she didn't mention 5K diamond ring, 2 bahts of gold, $999 in cash and XL-size condoms. Whatever...
  14. Likely. These days news channels prefer to hire "freelancers" as they don't to pay social and other "fees" And those freelancers are desperate to sell their "content" so we witness very hot market demonizing and "dehumanizing" enemies.
  15. I don't want to argue with you and your choice of sources. In this [obviously] freaky world we see/read some terrifying news. I prefer judge by my experience and acquaintances and recent historical events. As AlJazeera video shows is very sick child only. Again, I really don't want to argue about this, AlJazeera got kicked from Israel and all (!!!) their equipment was arrested. They have a bloody good reason to be angry
  16. according to the pictures >>> doesn't look like famine AFAIK Israelis are not some blood thirsty monsters at all, while UN is very strange source of news (since Kofi)
  17. friend of a friend was snatched $15.000 on tuk-tuk at Pratunam. Thai motocie gang.
  18. Strange, but seems the only place they teach Russian is Thammasat. Isn't? When Bangkok subway (tube) construction was only started they employed Russians to dig tunnels. Unfortunately language barrier was such an issue that they had to cancel the contract. However those tough guys were quite entertaining back than: huge and very friendly.
  19. Don't we just love floods in Bangkok? snakes, cat fishes, garbage floating on the streets. Nothing improved since 90s.
  20. Although I grew up on Pink Floyd music I find Mr. Roger Waters is way too politized. A pig with religious signs? How does it contribute to performance? I think leave music to music, and politics to professional politicians, not musicians and clowns.
  21. don't see them much at Ratchada - Lard Prao area. It seemes that nothing changed at all. brits and americans - a lot, russians - not at all. oh, there were Russian dude shopping at Chatuchak. accent and nothing special. I wonder what this buzz is all about?
  22. He is one frisky mother****, but many many years ago my cousin won a chance to learn the maintenance of photo-prining combains somewhere at West Coast, USA for about half of the year. Big machines, very costly so they [his bosses] didn't "save money" on his first hand education & accomodation. All went just fine for few weeks until him and his friend met local gang. They gave them whatever they had including passports. He told me he never been that scared. Sh1tlessly! Next days they filed reports to police about passports, got some temp. papers, canceled everything and flew back home on the first flight available. He dropped very promising job, and no, I knew him, he wouldn't chicken out that easy. So "animals" he said? Peaceful and lovely, political victims, members of opposition, LGBTQ+- prosecuted, eager to get any job, pay taxes and breath the fresh air of freedom and democracy! My a$$!
