    Someone ought to tell that to the operators of tawdry 'zoos' here who keep the poor little critters in tiny cages, only let out to perform pathetic 'shows' for tourists. Hello "Underwater World" and "Nong Nooch Gardens". 🤢

    It's brilliant that Thailand has a taxpayer-funded org like RID and indeed a "Smart Water Operation Center" to handle seasonal rainfall.

    Yep, he's all "show" and no 'go'. Basically a vapid distraction merchant.

    Basically, Thailand operates in the narrow little bubble of it's own language and culture. And superstition. Some "prominent" guy in a white coat and backed by some important-sounding acronym can say anything he wants, and it will go unchallenged here.

    Yep, watching this from my office window. Has expanded and increased a lot within the last 20 minutes. Maptaphut surrounding company sites have been evacuated already according to local news, just hoping fire fighters can get this under control within next couple hours..

    No good deed goes unpunished. What an utter nightmare for the toddler's parents.

    Well spotted. I didn't bother with much of the OP at all. Every time there is a smidge of "extreme" heat, rain, drought, or cold snap; it's "breaking all previous records", blah blah. You still taking these headlines at face value?

    Probably a relative or friend of a real (alleged) cop working there. Some companies working in this area (ours included) have been targeted by fake cops soliciting for 'protection' money, or 'donations' for PPE / bulletproof vests, etc. All scams when reported to the local officialdoms.

    Gosh! Another year, another "hot season" marked by temperatures in the 40's, the hottest areas in the North (Tak and Lampang). The only difference (in the 30 years I've been living here) is the reporting and the "fiery" graphics used.. 🤪

    My BIL works for them on a port project in Rayong. He has not been paid for over two months now. Rumours are that SCB bank is buying them out.

    "Brain failure leads to.."

    Yep, just another globalist acronym, seeking to centralize power into fewer (unelected) hands.

    My lawn has been rejuvenated by the (so far) very light rain here in Rayong. Bring it on!

    Yep. Only they didn't just wrongfully charge the husband, they actually tortured a BS 'confession' out of him. Utter and complete scum.

    I watched a documentary recently that stated a lot of those conscripts are drafted into military and secret police duties. Basically spying on their neighbors.

    Exactly. Manchester airport particularly, imo. The only airport in the world (as far as I know) that charges for baggage trolleys.. <deleted>hole.

    Seasonal hot weather returns, as it does every year upon year. Hey, but let's use a bit of fear-mongering to steer the chickenheads a bit..

    Focusing on the thriving tourism sector helps avoid the criticism of the exports (80% of GDP) industries which are really in the doldrums right now.

    Thanks for the info. 👍

    I might require to visit France next month, mid April. Is the ETIAS visa now required for UK citizens, or yet to be implemented? The info online seems a bit confused and contradictory.
  22. huangnon
    Yep, another "grey area" where cops can make money on selective enforcement. Basically a 'gimme' to the BIB. Ho hum.
  23. huangnon
    Gosh, Barry. I didn't mean to upset you so much.. Or indeed Taylor and her "Swifties". 😆 Good job she has such a sanctimonious soul like you to defend her, eh?
  24. huangnon
    Get over yourself. It's just an opinion. The quote was from PT Barnum who was the godfather of promotion. Like you say, she is a multi-million dollar industry, has a big team behind her, managing her image, writing her songs, making sure she says the right things, etc. Tomorrow there will be another pretty face, when her 15 minutes are done. Big deal.
  25. huangnon
    Big deal. Anyone would think that Taylor Swift is some sort of musical / cultural messiah, instead of being just another vapid auto-tuned pop-star. Just shows that like PT Barnum once said, never underestimate the stupidity and bad taste of the general public. 🤣
