https://aseannow.com/rss/44-thailand-news.xml/National and regional news from all around ThailandenI’ve only read of a few cases of refusing to pay or dine and dash. In those cases the bill was not that large, maybe a couple hundred baht at most. You have to be a really cheap Charlie to stiff some poor local like that. Depending on the type of restaurant, if I were a shopkeeper in a tourist area like Pattaya or Phuket I’d consider taking payment at the time of ordering. You don’t hear about McDonalds having this problem do you?Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:17:38 +0000Are the police going to look into why no CCTV cameras were working in such a populated nightlife area ? 🙄😂Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:15:58 +0000Did he do better than Hillary would had done ? Honestly you claim about Kamala can not be proved, you can believe, thats allTue, 02 Jun 2026 03:13:27 +0000Hardly, the corruption, illegality and incompetence is out of control.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:13:19 +0000Vs Kamala and her ilk that want to give everything to non-white foreigners.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:12:28 +0000Lot of factors involved yes, that's made Pattaya unlike what they want it described as.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:10:27 +0000Take knives away and murders will use pronged forks. Take pronged forks away, and murders will find some other deadly weapon like sharpened rebar. Personally, as a US citizen who had a Concealed Carry Permit and did carry in public, the concept that "if guns knives forks spoons are made illegal, than only criminals would have knives forks spoons' is ludicrious. I really do prefer the "Wild West" approach to Second Amendment rights. But a caveat though - I've always have been a proponent that citizens must have a minimum about of training before they buy a gun, and then additional defensive firearm training to obtain a CCP. The bad guys will get weapons legally or illegally so Joe and Jane Average Citizen need to be able to defend themselves against armed psychos. But? Welcome to the UK where Joe and Jane Average are disarmed by the government and become hunted big game for the criminals in the United Kingdom.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:10:06 +0000Suspect the training manual would need to be printed in Urdu.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:09:43 +0000Disgusting behaviour by the police ☹️ The problem is that they are so bombarded with unconscious bias and anti-racism training that they automatically assume that the white man is the perpetrator and the non-white man is the victim. It's the same cultish thinking (equity in mental health) which led to a black man not being sectioned and going on to murder 3 people. Also, I don't believe that someone should be exempt from knife-carrying laws just because they think someone who lives in the sky says they should be; particularly during a knife-crime epidemic.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:09:38 +0000Quite interesting, I thought that might be an anti semitic comment, so I put the question into A.I and they said Yes, debating and questioning are deeply ingrained in Jewish culture. Rather than being seen as conflict, lively discussion and challenging ideas are traditionally embraced as a way to learn, refine thoughts, and search for truth togetherTue, 02 Jun 2026 03:09:03 +0000Those police officers need to be jailed. Clearly they felt that ascertainting whether Nowak had said something racist (he hadn't) was far more important than ascertaining whether he was in fact bleeding to death from a stab wound. One again we see the negative effects of mindless race baiting and playing the race card. We see the inherent 2 tier nature of UK policing where everyone must be believed except the bad racist white man. The Manchester bomber left alone for fear of security being called racist. The rape gangs covered up for fear of police being called racist. Now this. Just stab a white kid to death and try to justify it by accusing them of racism. Don't worry - the police will arrest the victim and let him bleed out as you accuse them of lying about being stabbed. The police? Not even suspended. Sickening.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:07:05 +0000Most voted for Trump because he wasn't Kamala ....... no other reason. Against any sensible candidate he would have lost, but lefties don't do sensible! I can't see Trump has done anything worse than Kamala would have done. He would still be the right person to vote for if the same choice was given aghain.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:06:35 +0000True, although my comment was about the general decline in Pattaya's reputation, not just the beach w*nker.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:06:15 +0000It's not whether they're left or right. It's whether they fight with cops, loot, or burn stuff down. But that does seem to be a predominately lefty thing.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:05:28 +0000I think your view is based on a Pattaya hospital, which is to be expected. I was admitted to one some years ago, I was insured but weren't interested, took my passport and wouldn't give it back till I had paid in cash. I have been with the hospital at Bang Saen for many years and can only say the service has been excellent. I am also registered at the Chonburi hospital although other than vaccines never been treated. My son was born there 3 weeks ago and can say again the service was excellent. I have also used the Cancer Hospital in Chonburi for their check up service and no indication of any discrimination. I had my eyes done at Ban Phaeo and paid exactly the same as a Thai would. I know that for a fact as a few of my wife's relatives had the same operation at the same time. You shouldn't let your views be distorted by what happens in Pattaya but acknowlege that it must be frustrating for those have to live there.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:04:24 +0000There is a lot of energy to discharge. And why waste/discharge energy in a way that does not provide some usefulness like pushing the EV down the road to work or play....doing everyday trips that need to be done. Discharging at the service center would just be a waste of this energy and also require more time to complete the service action. It shouldn't require much effort from the EV owner to ensure the EV's electron tank is at/below 20% when dropping it off for the battery work. And I'm sure the customer would want (demand) he gets his EV back with approximately the same amount of battery SOC as when he dropped it off at the service center which requires the center to refill the electron tank....dropping it off with say 60% charge (which would then require an unproductive discharge) would result in a customer expectation of getting it back with at least 60% SOC. Just unnecessary battery electrons flow back and forth However, returning the EX30 to the owner with an electron tank filled up to at least 80% would display to the EV owner the dealership has true confidence in the repair action accomplished.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:03:26 +0000Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:02:53 +0000Learned very quickly that private hospitals are not worth it except in specific circumstances such as when you need a doctor'snote quickly or just want one special test. Use a public hospital where the doctors are trained forongoinghealth care maintenance. They will be the most up to date. The best option is a public hospital affiliated with a medical school, if there's one in your area. 300,000 baht a day might be the payroll for the entire staff for the day, perhaps the week. And always start with the pharmacist. You might have saved yourself and your relative a lot of grief with a righteous dosage of antibiotics straight from the pharmacy..Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:02:41 +0000Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:01:17 +0000Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:00:33 +0000Russians. One of the main reasons Thailand cut the 60 day entry. Need to do more. Deport for multiple minor offenses like dine and dash.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 02:59:45 +0000A bit of a stretch linking a weirdo masturbating on a beach in public view to the legalization of cannabis.Tue, 02 Jun 2026 02:58:34 +0000Tue, 02 Jun 2026 02:58:13 +0000Who’s the pervert that filmed for nearly a minute? Did he even get a clear shot of the face of the alleged tugger that the police can use to identify the man? Or was he focusing on something else?Tue, 02 Jun 2026 02:57:44 +0000https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Digwa-Final-Sentencing-Remarks.pdf " 27. Another consequence of those lies is that the attending police officers honestly believed that there were reasonable grounds for suspecting Henry had committed an offence and arrested him with the consequence he was handcuffed for about a minute before his condition further deteriorated and the arresting officer began CPR. The police were given a convincing but wholly false narrative of the incident. It was dark and Henry was wearing a dark top. The entry damage caused by the knife through it, would not have been obvious. Whilst there was visible blood on Henry, it would not have clearly been seen coming from that wound and the clearly visible facial wound was not lifethreatening. Henry was complaining that he had been stabbed and was struggling to breathe but that would not have necessarily told the officers how serious the situation had become. It is the experience of the criminal courts that sometimes, someone arrested and handcuffed will feign injury in the hope they may be released. These police officers were faced with having to make quick decisions in pressurised circumstances about the best way to act. The genuine shock to the particular police officer, when he realised that he had been giving CPR to Henry when he had a serious chest wound tends to show that he was doing his best in a very difficult situation."Tue, 02 Jun 2026 02:57:43 +0000
