Payboy Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) Well a country run by Clowns, is in fact a circus. What else needs to be said? A circus is better, because it's usually run by professionals. Edited February 23, 2013 by Payboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lounger Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 The places that need to keep product at -18 C should have backup generators already. If not, then they are dumb. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Why? they can let the food thaw and later re freeze it. Ok a bit of food poisoning but hey this is Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puccini Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 All the talk, advise, blah blah blah I am worried and have a bad feeling that the problem will be dealt with Thai style, ie from 5-14 April, if not longer there will be power outage country wide for hours every day. In smaller provinces there will most likely not be any power at all. After all is over, they will talk and point fingers and eventually it will fade away The government will declare 5-14 April to be public holidays. Problem solved.

Bokchoi Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Cannot bear the prospect of going without aircon. At the best of times I'm all steamy & hot. Maybe if all the rich old farangs coughed up enough Thailand could upgrade the power grids or buy power from the neighbors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puccini Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 If you are as fat as your avatar of Mimi from Drew Carey suggests it is no wonder that you do not feel comfortable in Thailand's nice and warm climate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEL1 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 They want to privatise the electric and the oil. Been saying that since the election. Now maybe you'll listen. Engineered? 100% Bring Back Maggieee......... The best thing that happened to the UK since Hovis! -mel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puccini Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 And you really believe that on public holidays people won't use electricity??? LOL.... Factories, schools, governments offices close on public holidays. Should save a lot of electricity, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
