PHUKET: A raid on a gambling den yesterday (Oct 25) by no less than 15 officers of the Kathu Police accompanied by Royal Thai Army soldiers from the 25th Military Circle, the division stationed in Phuket, resulted in just one arrest – that of a 72-year-old man.

The raid was carried out on a building located in Division 3 at the rear of the Phuket Villa Kathu housing estate, located on Phra Phuket Kaew Rd, yesterday evening (Oct 25).

The raid was organised after officers were informed of gambling at the site, explained Kathu Police Chief Jakkawat Thaweekulsawad.

Never heard of this. I know 'Pok Daeng', perhaps I should get out more often.

Straits of Hormuz and Bab-el-Mandeb Closed - Impact on World Economy

connda · March 1Mar 1

Well the Islamic hating, war mongers got their collective wish as Israel and the United States declared collective war on Iran and its allies. In response Iran and Anserallah have closed the Straits of Hormuz and the Bab-el-Mandeb Straits. Economists are predicting oil prices sky-rocketing from $150 to $400 dollars a barrel and in the process, wreaking the global economy. Personally I expect that oil prices will and gas at the pump will quickly become unaffordable, and that if the war is pro

Trump pleads for allied warships to guard Hormuz

bannork · yesterday at 04:33 PM1 day

Donald Trump has urged Britain and other allies to send warships to the Middle East to help secure the Strait of Hormuz — a sharp reversal days after claiming the conflict with Iran was effectively over. The US president appealed directly to foreign governments to join naval patrols protecting oil tankers in the strategic waterway. The plea came as Tehran threatened attacks on shipping routes that carry a large share of the world’s crude exports. The shift marks a stark change in tone from Trump

The Art of Becoming Irrelevant

I am not going to address anyone directly because I do not want anyone to feel like a jilted lily, but I have noticed something interesting about my own forum reading habits. For one, I read far more than I post. Often I do not even log in to scan through a few topics, and if someone averages about a dozen posts a day, I tend to skip right over anything they write. It did not start that way. At first I just noticed certain posters who write extremely long posts waffling on about their personal

Religion is no joking matter!

unblocktheplanet · yesterday at 09:17 AM1 day

Don’t make fun of anybody’s religion… they might be right! The Nation of Islam worldview was dominated by an apocalyptic and prophetic vision which held that the African American, the "original" or "Asiatic" black man, fell into a state of social domination that began with slavery.'1 This situation was a direct result of the machinations of an evil black scientist, Yakub, who grafted white people, also known as "devils," from original black people a little more than 6,000 years ago.

McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?

Kyoto Kyle · Friday at 10:31 PM1 day

I’m wondering if McDonald’s beef patties in Thailand are actually any good in terms of meat quality. I can’t remember the last time I had one here. Maybe once or twice many years ago. The reason I’m asking is because I just realized there’s a 24 hour McDonald’s within walking distance of where I’m staying now. If the patties actually taste decent, I was thinking that late one night I might buy two double cheeseburgers, or maybe two Quarter Pounders with cheese, take them home, stack all four pa
