Why did you write that, other than to use this as an opportunity to express your ignorant hate? There is no evidence to support your claim  that israelis are  complaining about noise. Altogether they are less than 1000 of them on the island.  There are far more Europeans. The noise complaints are legitimate and it is not about marriage bands, but the ongoing boozers that plague the island. There is nothing traditional about a massive sound system that blares hearing damage levels of sound. The noise disrupts the natural fauna and prevents people from living in peace.  You ignore the fact that  the locals don't respect the agreement to keep the noise levels down and to stop at a specified hour. It is unreasonable to demand that someone should be able to play their "music" past 1 AM at 100 decibels+.  Have you ever seen one of these events, with the drunks and the drunk drivvers? try being next to one where people are  urinating on your house or car because the host  has no toilet facilities. The complaints are often made by the guests of hotels and rentals. Often they demand refunds, so the operators respond in turn complain about the activity. Have a look at some of the accommodation reviews. You will see enough mentioning the  ripoffs and the noise levels.</description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:40:15 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>3M Baht "condo investment" visa</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396341-3m-baht-condo-investment-visa/?do=findComment&comment=20543631]]></link><description>Keep trolling, you don't even have 3 million baht</description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:39:27 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Foreign Tourist Masturbates on Pattaya Beach</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395877-foreign-tourist-masturbates-on-pattaya-beach/?do=findComment&comment=20543630]]></link><description>Lots of strange people come to Thailand.

Rep. Luna pressed  Rubio on Singham, an American millionaire based in China who has poured over $278M  into nonprofits since 2017, including $1.3M to Code Pink.   Rubio confirmed Singham’s role in bankrolling far left radical groups and noted their suspiciously rapid, pre printed sign protests following events like Maduro’s extradition, calling them anything but organic. Side note, the Communist funded Campus protests &amp; Minnesota anti Ice Chaos.  This foreign influence operation, with clear CCP links and ties to pro Cuba activism, perfectly illustrates how the left has overplayed its hand by becoming dependent on adversarial funding that fuels division and anti American agitation.   Groups like Code Pink, intertwined with broader networks including the Communist Party USA and Democratic Socialist of America, exemplify the sick cult dynamics coordinated, well financed radicalism that prioritizes ideological warfare over genuine grassroots concerns.   Aforementioned underscore the external enablers turning domestic progressive activism into a tool for foreign powers to sow chaos and undermine U.S. unity.  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ccp-connected-millionaire-allegedly-bankrolls-minneapolis-agitator-groups-through-dark-money-network https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nGhyqO_Jbk]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:35:54 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Has Trump completely lost the plot?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395777-has-trump-completely-lost-the-plot/?do=findComment&comment=20543625]]></link><description>Remember when the cult were whinging about Trump tariffs which were going to tank the stock market?

I expect that some people are going to make unfounded assumptions. Where did the  people come from? Cambodia, Myanmar, Malaysia or elsewhere? How many were repeat attempts? there are some people who make repeated attempts to cross. If 20,000+ were from the region, it offers a different picture than if they were mostly EU or Russian nationals.</description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:25:29 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Communism is dead.

Not just money but quality of life, well-being. Not enough jobs to go around so UBI. Only the rich get richer.

Suicide and euthanasia are two completely different concepts. Your attempt to equate the two is why supporters of euthanasia have to overcome multiple hurdles to allow people with terminal illness to die with dignity. Euthanasia is for people who are dying and are at the end of their life. Please educate yourself and stop trying to shove your simplistic  bankrupt 1970's socio- political ideology on everyone.</description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:20:04 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>I think people are wishing they had voted for Kamala.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396299-i-think-people-are-wishing-they-had-voted-for-kamala/?do=findComment&comment=20543612]]></link><description>Nope, the topic title was just pure clickbait of the best grade.</description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:20:04 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>I think people are wishing they had voted for Kamala.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396299-i-think-people-are-wishing-they-had-voted-for-kamala/?do=findComment&comment=20543610]]></link><description>Dems, Repubs, they're all the same.

It had been Egyptian controlled, and lost when the Arabs sought to eliminate Israel.  In 2005, Israel withdrew completely from Gaza. In 2023, Gaza attacked Israel and as a consequence, in 2024 entered parts of Gaza in 2024. There are no Israeli settlements in Gaza.  There are disputed parts of the Palestinian Authority territory in the former area of land that Jordan  had annexed, commonly known as  the "West Bank" (of Jordan) and historically as Judea and Samaria. You do know that that Jordan invaded and occupied this region in 1948, taking it from Israel, and annexing it in 1950, don't you?.  In 1967, Israel recaptured and liberated the territory. For some it is politically convenient if "occupation" started in 1967, and not  in 1948 when Jordan invaded.  It's another case of Arabs not willing to accept an agreement, and trying to take more, losing and then crying about the consequences of their own  savage greed.  There are no elections in Gaza or the West Bank and they have been run as dictatorships by Hamas in Gaza, and Fatah in the Palestinian Authority territory since 2006.</description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:15:21 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>EV Charging Stations (CS)</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1279914-ev-charging-stations-cs/?do=findComment&comment=20543608]]></link><description>One of our hotels had ERGE chargers.
