I suspect a foreigner English teacher devil made her do this. You see, he/she corrected her grammar, made her lose a huge amount of face and drove her to drink alcohol. It is clear it is the foreigner teachers fault. Deport him/her, let the teacher join a temple for a week and all is good in the world.

Damn foreigners.

You will notice on the video that the Fortuner windows are heavily tinted...No law enforcement on window tinting even if the law exist.

Drunk and reduced vision from heavy tinting....

Now I understand why the locals only put ฿20 of petrol in the motorbikes. It's to save them from bursting into flames when being dragged along the road by a drunk drivers vehicle.

Somebody told me there was a Drag strip in Buriram. I now believe them!

Driving a Fortuner on a Teacher's salary?? That should raise some questions on it's own.

The school this teacher "works" at is local to me, the cars the teachers drive range from Toyota Altis right up to Merc C class, with Civics, Vigo and Pajero sport in between. All of them very recent models.

Easy access to very low interest loans.

Have you not heard about the scandalous government loans that they all get?

There is a teachers' bank set up by teachers for teachers. There is nothing scandalous about it and the government gain and lose nothing.

Basically it is set up like a cooperative. Some teachers invest and some borrow. The rates for investment are very good. That ensures that the bank stays in the black.

Anyone can invest in this enterprise. You need to be introduced by a teacher.

It is a no lose situation for investors. Loan payments are taken at source, from the teachers' salary. It is impossible to default. Therefore the bank runs smoothly and teachers have access to low interest loans.

      Trans Woman Falls to Death from Chonburi Condo, Found Wanted on Human Trafficking Charges

      Picture of the scene. A 20-year-old trans woman fell to her death from a six-story condominium in Chonburi, with further investigations revealing that she was wanted on human trafficking charges. The incident occurred at 17:30 on September 22, at a condo located in Moo 12, Na Pa Subdistrict, Mueang District, Chonburi Province. Police from the Mueang Chonburi Station, along with a rescue team from Trikunatham Foundation, rushed to the scene after receiving reports of a person falling from a height. The victim, identified as Mr. Tawan (surname withheld), a 20-year-old trans woman from Surat Thani, was found in critical condition, face down on the ground. Despite the rescue team's efforts to revive her, she succumbed to her injuries shortly after. Eyewitnesses reported that they did not know much about the victim, only that she had rented two rooms in the condo. Moments before the fall, she was seen coming out of the room, seemingly trying to climb from one room to the other by the balconies, when she tragically fell. However, no one was aware of her legal troubles until after the incident. Further investigation by the authorities revealed that the deceased had a court warrant issued for her arrest on human trafficking charges. Police are currently investigating whether the impending arrest may have caused her distress and led to a possible suicide, or if the fall was an accidental result of trying to move between rooms. The investigation is ongoing as authorities question individuals close to the victim and examine the circumstances surrounding the incident. If you or anyone you know is in emotional distress, please contact the Samaritans of Thailand 24-hour hotline: 02 713 6791 (English), 02 713 6793 (Thai) or the Thai Mental Health Hotline at 1323 (Thai). Please also contact your friends or relatives at this time if you have feelings of loneliness, stress or depression. Seek help. -- 2024-09-23 Apologies, ASEAN NOW is not currently accepting comments on this topic //CLOSED//

      Rubbish. Yanukovich was elected on a pro EU ticket and welched on it. The Ukrainians kicked him out as a result. All this stuff about how the west engineered the 2014 "coup" is just Russian agitprop. I've been reading it now for months. Spouted by unregistered foreign agents such as yourself.

      Bus Collides with 10-Wheel Truck on Mittraphap Road, Udon Thani

      Picture from responders. A road crash occurred on September 22, at 16:15, when an inter provincial passenger bus crashed into the rear of a 10-wheel truck along Mittraphap Road 2 in the Non Sa-at district. The incident took place on the outbound section of the road, heading towards Khon Kaen, in the ongoing road works. The collision left several passengers injured and led to significant traffic congestion in the area. Rescue teams were promptly dispatched to the scene to assist the injured. Several victims received immediate on-site medical attention before being transferred to nearby hospitals for further treatment. The exact number of injured passengers has yet to be confirmed, but initial reports suggest multiple injuries, none of which appear to be life-threatening. The bus, which was traveling from Udon Thani, collided with the rear of the truck, which was believed to be parked or moving slowly due to the roadwork. The impact caused severe damage to the front of the bus, with shattered windows and crumpled front end. Police are currently investigating the cause of the accident, with early speculation pointing to poor visibility and road conditions due to the construction work. -- 2024-09-23

      The annoyance of the ++ prices

      Firstly you really have no reason or right to be eating at a university cafeteria, given that you are not studying at that uni. Secondly you mention about looking at the uni girls, at your age that is called being a lecherous perverted old man, and according to you, you should not be doing it. " I just want to tell you guys that.... CELIBACY is really.... The ONLY Way to Go....if you are seeking uncluttered happiness. a. I never need worry about wearing a Green Hat, which means being cuckolded. b. I never need worry about not being able to GET IT UP, which, obviously, is a non-issue for me, being COMPLETELY single. c. I am enjoying many other advantages of being celibate. And, there are just too many to share here with you...at the moment..... So, why not come over to MY side? Get with the program which will add years to your lives.....! Get celibate and flourish!"

      Residents Fear for Their Safety as Land Subsides Under Village Road: Near Pattaya

      Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Residents of a local village in Bang Lamung, Chonburi, are gripped with fear after land subsidance formed behind their community due to water erosion. The situation has raised concerns about the possible collapse of nearby homes, prompting urgent calls for municipal intervention. On September 22, reporters visited Soi Wat Boon Sampan 11, which connects to Soi Wat Boon Sampan 9 in Nong Prue Subdistrict, Bang Lamung District, after receiving complaints from local residents. They found that water erosion had caused the soil to subside beneath a concrete road at the back of the village, leaving the community living in constant fear. Upon investigation, it was revealed that water from damaged drainage pipes had eroded the soil under the road, creating the large cavity. The area is adjacent to a large, water-filled excavation pit, and is dangerously close to several homes, further amplifying residents’ fears. Locals are concerned that if the issue is not resolved swiftly, both the road and nearby houses may collapse. The Nong Prue Municipality has placed traffic cones to prevent large vehicles from driving over the affected road. However, residents believe this is only a temporary fix and inadequate given the severity of the situation. They worry that heavy rainfall could worsen the situation, leading to further erosion and increasing the risk to their safety. A resident living just a few houses away from the area described her growing fear, explaining that the problem had been reported to the municipality but no substantial action had been taken. "At first, the damage was small, but now it has grown much larger. If it rains heavily again, it could collapse at any moment," she said. The residents are pleading with the Nong Prue Municipality to address the issue urgently, especially as the rainy season continues, which could lead to further damage and endanger their lives and property. They are calling for immediate assistance to alleviate the suffering of the community, who are left living in fear of a potential disaster. -- 2024-09-23

      What planet are you from? You must believe that there's a leftist majority on the Supreme Court. And even judges selected by Trump turned down just about all of his team's attempts to overturn the election. But thanks for sharing with us hints about what your crystal ball is telling you. I hope you aren't using one that's made in China. They're very glitchy, by all accounts.
