    I would imagine it reduces the quality, freshness, and any type of stringency checks regarding hygiene, contamination and danger to the consumer. Caveat emptor.

    That's because they know they can pay whatever they want.? Same with tax.

    Provincial warlord on the rampage. Welcome to the jungle.

    Sounds like someone just came back from a World Economic Forum meeting.. Shove it.

    ^I'd be more worried about the type of psycho that would deliberately destroy your car by arson, tbh. Hope they checked no one was inside first.

    Yep. I bought one a few years ago from one of my Thai staff at work, after an attempted burglary at my home. I sold it back to him a few months later, though. I've never bought 30k's worth of fireworks that I haven't let off yet.

    Erm, so has anyone opened the pot to find out what's inside? Or is this going to be a serialized report? The suspense is palpable.

    It's great that faith-healing, soothsaying, fortune-telling, etc are legitimate career options here. It should make Thailand a superpower, imo.

    Is that him checking out in the photo.?

    Riding two abreast against the flow of traffic, with their feet on each other's foot rests.

    Yep. I usually wait for the annual sojourn to the UK, for cheap shopping, clothes, shoes, etc. Don't think I've ever bought undies or socks in Thailand in nearly 30 years.. All seem to be at least 50% polyester content here also.?

    Well, that inspires confidence.

    Basically these muppets will do anything to introduce the digital money system. Supposed 'money' that can be turned on and off at will, limited use to the area you live to prevent you traveling, has an expiry date if you don't spend it, taxes you at source for spending on things your Govt frowns upon or your social-credit score, and basically uses your supposed assets to control every aspect of your life.

    The other big story today is the Chinese police being imported to patrol tourist areas. I think that answers your question.
  16. huangnon
    Maybe the Chinese Police will be enforcing the next lockdowns here? The CCP is a massive contributor and influence to the World Health Organization, whose "Pandemic Treaty" overrides national sovereignty to every patron country signed up to it. Wonderful news..

    I wonder if drinks were served at this meeting? At least birthday boy limited the carnage to himself and a couple of lampposts.

    Ooh, look. We're just in time for the Festival of Litter!

    Yep. The little land-locked country to the NE of here blows Thailand out of the water when it comes to domestic beer. In fact, it's hard to name any country other than maybe Saudi Arabia that does it worse than here.
  20. huangnon
    Thanks. Your photo makes sense of the Thaiger's story in the OP.

    Came here 30 years ago to set up a franchise from a UK engineering co. with a licensee Thai partner. The business took off, and I'm still here (and in other parts of SE Asia). Didn't really choose Thailand, as much as it chose me, I suppose.

    Strange. There has been a lot of flooding in Rayong recently, but how do manage to flip the truck like that? Also, water looks very shallow in the photo. His friend couldn't have helped Khomsan out after exiting the vehicle himself.?

    Just put the phrase "climate change" at the front of any grant or funding request, and it's magically approved. Scientists wanting funding to study, erm, squirrels just re-name their project "squirrel foraging habits adapting to climate change", and they get their money, e.g. Someone is paying for all this..

    "Greatly boost revenue" for whom? Probably only the BIB.

    Dogs? I had a Thai dog that was an amazing rat-catcher / killer. One quick nip behind the neck; gone. If you don't like dogs, use a slingshot w/ BB ammo. Can get good ones on Lazada, etc.
