Popular Post snoop1130 Posted January 29 Popular Post Share Posted January 29 China has agreed to lend a new panda to Thailand and has expressed interest in the land bridge mega project, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin said today, following his discussion with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi. He said that the new panda, which was requested by Thailand, will be kept at the zoo in Chiang Mai. Lin Hui was the last of three pandas loaned to Thailand by China in 2003. It died of old age at Chiang Mai zoo in April last year.

Popular Post Foxx Posted January 29 Popular Post Share Posted January 29 China isn't lending the panda, it's renting it. Thailand will have to pay a fortune to China for the privilege of displaying the beast. Typically it's US$1,000,000/year. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retarius Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Didn't they kill the last panda sent here? Or am I thinking of something else. Why can't they just leave the animals alone. I'm sure this new panda would be happier off with its mates in Bambooland 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Bull Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 About twenty years ago drove for two days to go see the panda. The panda was sleeping in its air conditioned facility, woke up took a dump and went back to sleep.On the way home got appendicitis and had to have an appendectomy. Not the best trip I have taken. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to just exhibit that bear that bit off somebody's arm a few days ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
