People go by their own experiences when they put forth suggestions as to the why and hows of crimes, and some are right on, while others are just reaching. Nothing wrong unless they are using prejudice as a diagnosis.</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:53:46 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Pro-Israel Politics Loses Big-Time in NY Election</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397545-pro-israel-politics-loses-big-time-in-ny-election/?do=findComment&comment=20571667]]></link><description>California... The poster child. Most homeless. Most illegals. Highest unemployment.  And their taxpayers are fleeing to Red states.   That's the problem with indoctrination as opposed to education.  They want them stupid enough to leave their home state because they can't make a living under the Blue policies, then vote for those same people and policies where they relocate to.  Then they're surprised when that place becomes a crime ridden, high cost craphole.  Perfect example:  Austin Texas.  Californians have ruined it.</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:53:26 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Opinion:   The loss of Crimea Could  Brings Putin Down.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397591-opinion-the-loss-of-crimea-could-brings-putin-down/?do=findComment&comment=20571665]]></link><description>Imagine having an election now and Russian electorate voting to put him back in power.......I mean.....how stupid can an electorate be?</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:52:53 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Average cost of in-patient operations RECENTLY paid in hospitals</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397334-average-cost-of-in-patient-operations-recently-paid-in-hospitals/?do=findComment&comment=20571666]]></link><description>Just did some stuff at Bumrungrad a couple of weeks ago. Procedures included , colonoscopy, endoscopy, camera endoscopy, TURBT, inguinal hernia repair, and consultation with an oncologist because they couldn't figure out why I was slightly anemic. An iron injection resolved that within 3 days. All in was around 700k but I haven't totalled it up yet. 3 nights in the hospital.  The high quality Canadian doctors had been trying to figure out the anemia for 15-20 years. Bumrungrad, 5-6 days. Canadian health care sucks. To see doctors of the same quality in Canada is impossible. You're lucky to get an appointment with a specialist, let alone be able to pick the one you want.</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:52:53 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Truth About Thailand's Notorious Bangkok Hilton</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397570-the-truth-about-thailands-notorious-bangkok-hilton/?do=findComment&comment=20571664]]></link><description>It must tough in there when there's a power cut and the air-con stops working for a few hours.</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:51:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Peak Trump</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397582-peak-trump/?do=findComment&comment=20571663]]></link><description>Two posts all in CAPS have been removed, you can stop with the derogatory name calling as well please</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:50:43 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Australian Arrested at Bangkok Airport Over Pattaya Murder</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397575-australian-arrested-at-bangkok-airport-over-pattaya-murder/?do=findComment&comment=20571662]]></link><description>He's admitted killing her after seeing CCTV, says self defense</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:50:26 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Australian Arrested at Bangkok Airport Over Pattaya Murder</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397575-australian-arrested-at-bangkok-airport-over-pattaya-murder/?do=findComment&comment=20571661]]></link><description>True, and many serial killers get away with it so long because they blend in with the population, some with nice features that disarms the women until they have them trapped, Ted Bundy coming to mind. Some of the roughest looking biker types I've known have been family men, who treat everyone with respect including their women and children.

There's a good photo of his right arm, and a partial photo of his left arm, whilst he's being escorted by police. I can't see any scratches.  A member has posted a photo of him at the police station. I don't see any scratches on his neck.  I made no comment about the deceased in a suitcase.  I will do as another member suggested and look for other photos published on the internet. I merely stated that in the photos on this thread, to date, I can't see any scratches. That doesn't mean I am lying, or the police are lying, just that I can't see any scratches in these photos. Nothing more, nothing less.  It was just a comment.</description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:50:06 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Australian Arrested at Bangkok Airport Over Pattaya Murder</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397575-australian-arrested-at-bangkok-airport-over-pattaya-murder/?do=findComment&comment=20571659]]></link><description><![CDATA[https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06-27/australian-arrested-after-teen-girl-found-dead-in-thailand/106850896?utm_campaign=abc_news_web&amp;utm_content=link&amp;utm_medium=content_shared&amp;utm_source=abc_news_web]]></description><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 04:50:03 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Going-To-The-Dogs?: 2nd-Gen Asian-Americans?

Fall from Grace?   Dear Folks,   When Asians take their children to America, do they REALLY KNOW what is in store for their fine offspring?  I think they have no clue. I think they believe the myths and the hyperbole, and the misinformation about the American School System, and the Land of Opportunity.  Instead, what do they meet in places like LA? Garbage Black Prison Culture? Although, some of the young things seem to enjoy the Black Studs&#x2026;.up until after the first year of marriage, and then they realize it was all just a heavenly dream.  Would you send your beloved children to the USA for schooling, beginning in late elementary or first year Junior High School?  REALLY?   https://youtu.be/f6rLbcFtPaQ     Why don&#x2019;t they just stay where they are? They could be happier. The grass is NOT greener in America. This is a myth.   So, would you send your kids to the USA, to live in home-stay, while they become brainwashed, as we can see from this uplifting&#x2026;.   Music Video about the Night-Scene for Asian-American Second Generation&#x2026;.?   What are the parents even thinking?

Everything works there. The place is clean, tidy and well maintained. Sidewalks  are level and safe.  Crosswalks are 95%+ controlled by lights, coordinated with traffic flow. It's POLICED properly, on the roads and off road. Their presence is everywhere....and they are polite, helpful and multilingual...spoken and written. (Your 15yo daughter and friends  can walk around in total safety at 1am, any day)  Nearly everyone speaks English! Signs (mostly) are in Chinese and English.   Young ladies are fit (they walk everywhere, not a motorcycle taxi anywhere), confident and very smart and sexy....short pleated miniskirts, G-strings, low cut blouses and dresses......very rarely seen in the average, modest ladies here.  Of course,  Mainlanders are the majority of the tourists, and they spend big bucks!  Sorry, got a bit off topic there!!
