  1. ......................"Her strengths have to do with an image that is close enough to Thaksin to gain respect from those who admire him, but distant enough from him to get acceptance from his arch-enemies."........................

    I doubt if either of those statements hold any truth. rolleyes.gif

    Well as someone who certainly doesn't "hold any truth", you should know.

  2. Iron Lady??

    It was the "sexy" reference that made me spray coffee across the table.

    Again.

    She is married to a very wealthy Thai Chinese building magnate..... She made a fortune when she was the minister for health in Thaksins government... No way this uni grad can be the face of PTP. She will be cannon fodder... Stay home with your children young lady.... enjoy your life...! wai2.gif

    She didn't accumulate her wealth from her husband. She is worth more than 10 times what her husband is worth, meaning she reaped her riches from the national trough.

    "meaning she reaped her riches from the national trough."

    An unfounded accusation! unless of course, you can prove otherwise?

  3. Thinly veiled threats...designed to instill fear into the citizens...happens in countries run by communist dictators frequently...

    But this is Thailand...run my a loving father who just happens to be a strict disciplinarian....

    "happens in countries run by communist dictators frequently..."

    But much more frequently in "fascist" dictatorships.

  4. Why would you risk running Win 10 now? RTM is in October.

    Here you can read about some problems to consider:

    Read the links in there too... Many people have ruined their PC.

    Forced nVidia driver being one example that have made PC`s useless.

    Must read:

    For an article that doesn't mention the shared wi-fi functions as a threat, not sure i would blindly believe it.

    As for many people having ruined their PC's, the only thing the article mentions (although there are more) is faulty graphic drivers, released by the manufacturer.

    While i would agree that it is likely best to wait until the bug nest is sorted, is it really worth scare-mongering?

    "is it really worth scare-mongering?"

    Yes, it worked for me. I was going to upgrade as soon as available until I read some of the "scaremongering", now after seeing all the flaws why risk it?. Fortunately I'm running 7 on both my laptops so there's nothing on 10 I can't do without.

    Agreed, why people rush to upgrade is a mystery to me. Every new operating system comes with many flaws, it's surely best to wait for these to be ironed out. My two laptops running windows 7 will not be upgraded until at least sp1, if ever.

  6. "when they don't like something"

    like the repeated violent overthrow of democratically elected governments?

    Or judges making judgement in accordance with the law; or the Shins actually being subject to the laws just like anyone else?

    There was a lot of violence prior to the removal of the caretaker PTP regime which had lost any semblance of control. But I don't recall any violence in their removal.

    "But I don't recall any violence in their removal."

    Their removal started with the shooting and bombing of policemen, seizing government buildings and making the business of government impossible, all done with the approval of the traitor Prayut to enable the coup. The reciprocal violence by the reds was in response to the direct threat to democracy, as has since been proven. As a westerner, your continued defence of the destruction of democracy is reprehensible.

  7. Why are you so keen for windows 10? Every new operating system always has flaws, best to give it 6 months or so.

    I got the upgrade the day it was released after reserving it a few weeks before. It installed without any drama's and left everything as it was before and for me is the best Windows yet. I liked 7 but hated 8. 10 is even better than 7 was so well done MS thumbsup.gif

    Up to you, personally I'll wait for sp1, too old and wise to trust Microsoft to have got it right 1st time.

  8. .

    If they could protest peacefully and in their own backyard nobody would care about it.

    I guess you dont see the irony in that statement?

    Oh and where did the yellows run the airport and sutep lead protests?

    As I've stated NOTHING has been done to solve the underlying discontent, and having suthep and his divisive ways back is only going to make things worse.

    I see it, I just don't think it justifies the red to kill and bomb as they always do when they don't like something. Now if they want to do that let them do that in Chaing Mai or Isarn or something like that. Let them bug their own. At least the protests of the former yellows were on their own home turf and far less violent.

  9. Why people dive in head first to upgrade to windows latest operating system beggars belief, they are always flawed. I've 2 laptops running windows 7 and neither will be upgraded till next year sometime, maybe. I do, on the other hand, have a linx tablet running windows 8 which I never use so I might try it out on that, or not, as the case may be.

  10. Many roads in Thailand are in bad shape.They are good now.You should have seen them in 1971.Um if you value your life you

    Should think twice before traveling on 2 wheels in This country.

    '71? luxury, should have seen them is '66.

    You should have seen the roads in England in 1890 terrible.

    Roads? England? Luxury! When I were a lad .............
