  1. The Thai driver said truck's brakes failed, causing him to lose control of the vehicle, which flipped over in the accident.

    And couldnt grab the handbrake ??

    Yet again, slipshod attitudes to servicing and maintenance causes loss of life.. Same like the boat sinkings etc..

    i'm consistently confused by a large majority of the posters on this site. it was an accident - they happen. it's not just to think 'thailand' or 'thai people' are automatically at fault for the accident. hand brakes or 2nd gear is secondary to the reality that - in tough situations - normal humans lose the ability to think clearly and rationally; asian people are no different in this regard than non-asians. some of you might do a scan of your birth country's newspapers to investigate the number and causes of vehicle accidents and see that, each day, regardless of nationality or race, people die due to accidents.

  2. "One thing we don't understand is why they had to view and delete all the photos in our camera. Those photos really meant a lot to us," she said.

    Umm...because they stole your stuff, and weren't planning on returning it...that coupled with the fact that there weren't, likely, any interesting shots in there.

  3. Hopefully someone out there knows - I have a newish Blackberry phone that's functional in Thailand. I've been away from the US telecom dance for almost a year and a half and was wondering if I could get service in America for this Thai phone using a sim card without signing a contract. Do you know how/where to do it there...and if I need to unlock the phone here or anything?

    Thanks. Clueless, so tons of details would be great!

  5. "Problems can happen when we ask foreign countries to extradite him. We name him in our request as Thaksin Shinawatra but when those countries check his presence, they would not find him because he used different name," Panich said.

    Problems?

    How's about you tell the foreign countries what that different name is.... Takki Shinegra?

    Sorted.

    that is, officially, funny.

  6. Monks do carry out these duties - i found out last night.

    And i dont see the point of discussing this matter on a public forum

    because its only a Thai person that would be able to

    comment on this issue.

    Can you tell me where and how you go about utilizing them. I'm assuming they conduct this service in English.
