  1. West side is generally OK if crossing from Satun or Songhkla, If traveling through Pattani, Yala or Naratiwat you should be OK if you stay on main roads, would recommend traveling between 0800 and 1600, don't hang around the border towns such as Sungai Kolok in the evenings.

    Statistically you are more likely to have a road traffic accident than be a victim of terrorism smile.png

    Exactamundo? From Pulp Fiction.

    From the Fonz, long before pulp fiction.

  2. "Outsiders do not understand"

    yup we 'outsiders', we lowly 'farang' and 'aliens' do not understand about precious Thailand that xenophobic of countries

    truth is... most Thais don't 'get it' either... but DAMN you Ambassadors!!! go home !!!!!!!!!!!! I AM THAI !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yes we do understand. The problem is we don't agree with you simple as that. A big difference. if this man is to become a real PM then he needs to grow thick skin, a backbone and stop offering to have a 'straightener' with anyone who disagrees with him. Very childish IMO.

    I often here from Thai that outsiders don't understand Thailand. Many of us have been here long enough to fully understand. It is we just don't agree with you. Please deal with it. I deal with the fact that your views are often different to mine.

    I agree.

    I'll make a bold - or not so bold - statement that most Thais do NOT understand the world at large; outside it's tiny borders/mindset/experience/education.

    Not bold at all, just the truth, most Thais have no knowledge of, or interest in the rest of the world.

  3. Sounds like Glyn Davies written all over it. If it was him he would have understood exactly what Prayut said in Thai especially since Glyn and his wife and kids did the intense Thai language training. They even introduced themselves to the Thai people on video showing off those new polished language skills.

    When one comes from a background like Davies that has seen him meddling in Korean politics he must be forgiven for thinking that it is normal for America to have complete and utter control and manipulation over another country like they have over South Korea.

    Maybe Davies should have spent more time studying Thai politics and history and less time studying the language.

    It wasn't him, maybe you should have spent more time studying the thread instead of running off at the mouth, as usual.

  4. Okay now I'm worried about staying in Thailand. The situation is getting worst for foreigners. Bombs, lack of human rights, immigration rules changing, borders monitored and now this. Time to get out, before the lynch mobs arrive.

    Done it, left in May after a long on/off relationship since 1966, for what looks like the last time. TBH I fell out of love with Thailand years ago after all my favourite places were encased in concrete, heck I don't even like paved roads, dirt bikes n 4wd used to be much more fun. As me and her indoors broke up in April can't think of any reasons to go back, it's not even cheap anymore, Malaysia, Cambodia n Vietnam are cheaper, maybe even Burma, not tried there yet.

    Sawasdee Thailand, it's been lots of fun.

  5. ... Outsiders do not understand what's going on in our country," he said.

    Honestly I think the Supreme Leader should stay home from UN in NYC - he will def feel most unwelcome there, just like if Jung-Un suddenly showed up unexpected ...

    If Kim went, it'd be Jung-Un and Wrong-Un.

  6. An Israeli doctor says: "In Israel, medicine is so advanced that we

    cut off a man's testicles, put them on another man, and in 6 weeks, he is

    looking for work.

    The German doctor says: "That's nothing. In Germany, we take part of a

    brain, put it in another man, and in 4 weeks he is looking for work."

    The Russian doctor says: "Gentlemen, we take half a heart from a man,

    put it in an other's chest, and in 2 weeks he is looking for work."

    The American doctor laughs: "You all are behind us. Six years ago, we

    took a Muslim with no brains, no heart and no balls and made him

    President. Now, the whole country is looking for work!"

    This joke actually won an award for the best joke in world competition held

    in Britain!

    What joke?

  7. I've got a chromecast and I love it, don't need to use with chrome browser but it is the only thing I use chrome for. In about 40mins I'll be casting the moto gp, can't wait, c'mon Vale!.

    great to hear it, I already bought the TV and look forward to trying out a chromecast.

    One thing I don't quite understand u say u don't need to use with the Chrome browser but it's the only thing u use .chrome for.

    Don't quite get it......

    Sorry, just mean I have firefox on my laptop which I use most of the time but chromecast is just so easy to use with chrome I use chrome to chromecast.

    My phone is android and chromecast works well with that but don't know if it works with apple stuff.

    If you like sports there's an app called olwebtv for android which works great with chromecast, once again no idea if it works with apple.

  8. My first two laptops were IBM Thinkpads back in the days of yore. They were brilliant, the tank of laptops, really sturdily built and never any problems. On the strength of those, in Oct last year I bought a Thinkpad edge off the internet. From day one I was dissappointed, very flimsily built, would creak and groan if I even looked at it. It wasn't long before it started having problems, every time I turned it on it would go into startup repair which was eventually traced to a faulty memory stick, and then it devoloped a line down the left edge of the screen which has now developed into 5 lines all in a laptop less than a year old. I would never buy another Thinkpad and in fact am typing this on my 5yr old Inspiron which is a brilliant laptop and has never given me any problems.
