    Ah yes, the Tak Bai incident where the military fired their guns up to the sky and the bullets came down and killed people in the crowd.  That is what the former PM in exile gave as an excuse at the time.  Before attending an ASEAN summit shortly after he did announce that if anyone brings up Tak Bai he would walk out.

     

     

     

    Yes, the actual videos of the start of this massacre were on Youtube which his govt actually banned for a short while.

    This lethal Lao Khao they make is sold at most Ma and Pa shops, it is deadly and yet it continues unabated. from 10b a small MI I5 bottle, so many die from continued use. But the local police do nothing except maybe take a backhander.   

    It's maybe toxic by design. An unemployment / pension solution.

    Why only in Bangkok and why only vehicles.. In my province you can here bonk bonk bonk from miles away if there is a party or concert. Only the bass, I don't understand why Thai people like to here bass only and in the cars more noise than a club in the western world.

     

     

    The louder and more bass-heavy the better.. Usually find that the cost of the sound system is inversely proportional to their bad taste in music. ????

  4. For me it's Kaeng Liang (pumpkin curry), Pad Siew Moo (pork & veg w/ large noodles), and my go-to favourite; Phad Krapow Gai, Kai Dao (Chicken, basil on rice with a fried egg). It's usually the first meal I order any time I come back to Thailand.

  5. Seems that we could be on the brink of nuclear war, similar to 70 years ago during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.

    One of the only differences being that back then, the US had a President that opposed the Military-Industrial complex and the bankers that were pushing for regime change to any country daring to defy them. (He of course paid the price for this, 1 year later).

    Fast forward seventy years later, and the media are now showing us the well-appointed nuclear bunkers of the elite, and indeed advising people of steps to take during a nuclear attack, <deleted>:

    This can only be solved by diplomacy / detente, yet the prevailing narrative is all-out aggression against Russia. Utter madness.

    The constant flood of 'yabba' and others that continues to come in from Myanmar could, in my opinion be likened to an act of war with plenty of Thai conspirators involved.

     

    Someone said something similar about the fentanyl crisis in the US, it's more of a weapon than a drug.

    Exactly. Vast military structures need an enemy, and it's usually their own populace.

  7. Quote

    Associate professor Dr Seri Suphathit, director of the center for climate change and disaster at Rangsit University said that many areas of Thailand had experienced worse flooding than in 2011.

     

    Dr Seri expected Bangkok to experience more long term flooding and even worse rainfall to the tune of 50-70%.

    I suppose that as a newly appointed "Director of Climate Change & Disaster", he shouldn't be sounding too optimistic, then? ????
