I agree the locals upset jealous they were not invited so grass them to the police.Not as bad as the bridge club arrest ,if no money on show just cards and chips no case really.Everyone knows and sees thai gambling the king card game i think after they pay who lost like snooker clubs too.They don,t try to hide it,just wait for the casinos to be legal and see who is at those tables playing poker -

Pattaya Police Raid Poker Gambling Ring, Arrest 9 Foreign Players
Aren't they supposed to be referred to as "gambling dens"? And, thank goodness that no one in the villages does any kind of gambling where they go into debt and end up owing the loan sharks thousands. Fortunately for me, no one in my extended ever got caught up in the sin. -

Jack Smith’s Struggle in Pursuing Trump: A Fumbling Legal Strategy?
Let him keep doing what he do. It hasn't had a very good result so far. He is part of the reason Trump looks likely to win at this point. -

Looks like Thailand is slipping slowly back to the stone-age. Hits like this don't do them any favours. -

The Urgency of Addressing Iran’s Nuclear Threat
Anyway as far as Iran is concerned they will have a nuclear weapon you would need a Time Machine to stop that now. There nuclear program is way below the ground and even if you could get to it the know how to make a centerfuge and would just do it again. The time is long gone where any country or block can prevent other countries from technology that dates back to WW2. I am sure the Japanese for example could make a nuclear weapon and stick it on a missle these days in about 15 minutes. -

Thaksin and Pheu Thai Party face constitutional showdown
Almost zero consequences for any of them and their actions, managing a nation is just one big schoolyard game to those involved. But I suppose that goes for most countries on Earth. -

Trump chickens out again.
I'm told that, rightly or wrongly, Trump's team now believe he's heading for an easy win come November 5, therefore further appearances on TV not necessary. -

No travel insurance for me !
It never fails me the naiveté of folks when it comes to insurance. Health 'insurance' Medicare or whatever you have in your country for older folks in the West isn't insurance it's a State backed guarantee. Real health insurance is like car insurance. Have a couple of claims and watch that annual premium increase. Private health insurance inside Thailand is the same. Raw, real insurance. My wife had a ruptured fallopian cyst which resulted in sepsis, required emergency surgery to save her life. After that rider on our policy to exclude all gyno problems. So travel insurance, same thing and it gets to a point where you just can't get it. My Dad in in the last years of his life just couldn't get travel insurance to visit me in Thailand because of age and pre-existing conditions It's the same thing all aging expats in Thailand face. Age and pre-existing conditions can make any insurance either unaffordable or just impossible to get as the risk for the insurance companies increase -

Wild Elephant Attacks Leave One Dead and One Injured in Chanthaburi
A wild elephant attack in the Kaeng Hang Maew area on October 10, has injured one individual and resulted in the death of another during a rubber tapping incident. At approximately 06:40, officials from the Khao Si Fif Chan National Park received an urgent report from Mr. Anupong Sukwiset, the district chief of Kaeng Hang Maew, regarding an attack involving the wild elephant, which occurred near the villages of Nong Samet, Moo 12, and Nong Tien, Moo 6, in the Khun Chong sub-district. Upon investigation, the authorities confirmed the identities of the victims. The deceased was identified as Mr. Theparot, 47, a resident of the Khun Chong area, and the injured individual was Mr. Phuwai, 65, both were rubber tapping at the time of the incident. The Sawang Katanyu Foundation promptly transported both the injured and deceased individuals to Kaeng Hang Maew Hospital for emergency treatment and to assist the family with arrangements for the deceased. Prior to the attack, officials had been working to relocate the elephant from the area. The animal was reportedly fleeing when it encountered Mr. Theparot, leading to the fatal encounter, then after injuring Mr. Phuwai in the vicinity of Moo 6, the elephant ran off from the area. In response to the incident, park officials have mobilised a team to track the elephant and are working to inform local residents about safety measures to prevent further incidents and loss of life.
