Motorbike noise
Why would a tourist on 2 week holiday care about a first time Motorbike noise outside their holiday rented condo at 7-8pm? I can understand if someone lived here and the bike noise was continuous most days of the week, or at midnight or early morning hours. I just can't picture this anywhere in the World that a 2 week Tourist would call the police over some Motorbike noise at 7-8pm when it's only happened on one night that they've been here? -

Thai Officials Face Probe Over Fatal School Bus Inferno
I hope that the whole investigation does not end up scapegoating some of the officials and private individuals involved in this sad incident. The real problem is the laws that allow the circulation of vehicles, weighting many tons or carrying dozens of people, well beyond their reasonable age limits. In Thailand, vehicles that in other countries would be considered vintage and collectible, are allowed to travel fully loaded and to carry out commercial services. If busses and trucks first registered in 1970 can still be legally used to transport people and goods, despite not being equipped with ABS, ASR, and all the modern technologies and devices capable of ensuring maximum safety, Thais will always be exposed to high risks when they travel by road. If obsolete busses and trucks are allowed to travel on Thai roads, no transport company equipped with modern busses or trucks will be able to compete in the Thai market. Outdated bus and truck operators will always outcompete modern bus and truck operators, because their paid-for-in-full vehicles give them a decisive competitive cost advantage. If the Thai authorities are serious about start tackling the road safety issue, they should start by progressively banning the oldest and most obsolete vehicles from the roads. And what better starting point than busses heavy trucks, which are the most lethal vehicles not only on Thai roads, but on any road? -

Israel Hamas War the Widening Middle East Conflict
Months ago, I saw this coming. They certainly are "encouraging emigration" 😢 Jewish settlers, including ministers in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's cabinet, gathered on the border of Gaza on Monday, where they called for settlements Israel evacuated two decades ago to be re-established in the war-torn Palestinian enclave. Ben-Gvir also called for Israel to "encourage emigration" of Palestinians from Gaza. "It's the best and most moral solution, not by force but by telling them: 'We're giving you the option, leave to other countries, the Land of Israel is ours'," he said. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/edge-gaza-israeli-settlers-want-back-2024-10-21/ -

Khon Kaen office move? Maybe January.
In Hua Hin they don't require any paperwork for 90 day report renewals at all, you just take your passport, they scan it then print the paper and put it in the passport. It's been like this at Bluport in Hua Hin for a few years now. They do always ask if anything changed, so I get the impression they would want the paperwork if something has changed. -

Is Trump God's chosen one to be president of the United States in 2024?
Some people think that God has already chosen Trump to be the winning candidate November 5th. And, Franklin Graham certainly thinks so. Franklin has now told us that Trump is God's chosen one. And, if I know Franklin, which I do, and quite well... Franklin has an uncanny way of often being right, and not left. Anyway, I would suggest that if you are a believer, you might find this video interesting. And, by the way, I must admit to being quite stirred by Franklin's moving oratory. I am so moved now that I have been praying, myself, after just having finished viewing this video. In fact, although I am not a believer, I have decided to become a believer, IF and Only IF.... God delivers Trump to the White House for a second term. Well, here I am now.... Praying away at my desk, in the hope that my prayers will be heard. I do hope that you are with me on this. Best regards, Gamma -

Should "Ethnic Minority" be Replaced with "Global Majority"?
Maybe the controllers prefer lower IQ races - easier to coral & control and completely unaware of 'human rights' -

Thailand’s smog showdown: Clearing the air with a bold 30% cut
All the vow's and waïs will not help....as long as people continue burning their garbage or crops all over, nothing will change. Places like Hua Hin (hin lek fai area) have become worse with burning stench all over every third day. And of course nobody gives a hoot. All the more reason here not to stay in Thailand for more then 60 to 90 days maximum (for those who can). -
