Just another affirmation of the "quality destination" that tourists should be paying more for. ????

Yep. Was "SADS" (sudden adult death syndrome) ever a thing before?

Japan has some of the toughest gun laws in the world. Very difficult for anyone unconnected to obtain a gun there, legally or not. I doubt this guy is some random lunatic.

Exactly. Utterly stupid thinking, and proving just how out of touch these people are with the situation (and reality in general).

True enough. Think of how much your trainers would cost without Uighur (slave) labor?

Good luck. Most Thai vets won't do this. I live in Banchang, Rayong, and there was only one vet I found that was willing to help when my old dog was in terrible pain. He supplied the syringe and "pentobarbital" (?) solution, and I made the injection. I think this business / shop has since moved premises now, though. I would inform the vet that you are willing to inject your pet first, I think a few of them have the materials, but won't perform the job.

Wouldn't happen to coincide with "rainy season", then?

Must be a fair old 'back-log' of serious crimes ongoing..? Couldn't possibly be politically-motivated, then..

Basically because they're (CP) allowed to monopolize supply and thus dictate prices to suppliers and consumers. It's not even crony-capitalism, it's cartel-ism. Facilitated by a robber-baron Govt.

Passive-aggressive contradictions. ????

Hygiene, road safety, food safety, clean air, healthy eating, etc., etc. No bandwagon or gravy-train for healthy, confident people, unfortunately.

The mask mandate ended only to try attract foreign tourists back here. It's only the main tourist areas that you also see Thais without masks, tbh. Thais are still getting their info and news from masked newsreaders, masked cartoon characters on Line app, Mor Phrom, etc. In the workplace, a lot of factory workers, contractors, etc still have to ATK-check every 3 days. If they come up positive, they will have to isolate (and lose money) for 10 days, pending negative results. So it's also the fear of losing earnings.. Mandated or not, the mask-wearing will be here in Thailand for a long time.

Yes, it's called "Rainy Season".

"Endemic Era" promotion to lure the tourists back.. Meanwhile, refusing to actually implement "endemic" measures, to keep the Thai population frightened and compliant, and riding the gravy train of PPE / ATK sales.

Lovely bloke. Killed his wife in a similar modus operandi, thirty years ago. https://www.thephuketnews.com/police-suspect-banyin-in-wife-1991-death-58152.php

Like what.? ????

Yep, I vaguely remember those maladies.. ???? Didn't they disappear during 2020?

At the start of this year, he was urging the populace "not to be scared", and being positive about an endemic status of this virus. Now, he is looking to postpone this, and scare-mongering.. A large section of society is trying to rebuild their lives and livelihoods right now. Are you happy to have this guy dictate the parameters of your life for you?

Not much of an increase at all.

All she has to do is slur the magical words; "Do you know who I am?" And get spirited away from the stench of her actions.

Translated: "Signed up to shonky trade deals, in return for loans to buy jets and weapons".

People who gamble will do so anyway. The majority of them do it on their phones or at their workplace, village, etc. I don't see how an actual physical walk-in casino will change normal people's gambling habits, tbh. It will prevent however, the billions of Baht / dollars that Thailand loses just over it's borders with it's immediate neighbours.

Hey! Look over there! The cannabis legalization is just a sideshow distraction from a desperately unpopular government that stole people's democracy and livelihoods at the point of a gun.

Just re-reading a few old Henry Miller classics. Tropic of Cancer. Quiet Days in Clichy. Black Spring. Amazingly rich prose, free-association and vocab. Also pretty visceral and tackles taboo (1930's era) matter with lots of energy. Great reading.

I bet he doesn't even have Covid. Just making a point about non-Thais, not wearing the ... masks.
