Will it be investigated for arson? We never hear about any fires in Bangkok investigated for arson let alone arrests.

[Happy Grumpy]

Don't suppose there's a property group head by a Top Cop that wants to build a Mall/condo/nightclub with no fire exits on that spot?

I knew this thread would soon have a stupid cat joke. For at least 30 years I have wondered why is it that Westerners or Expats cannot mention the

subject of a Chinese restaurant without suggesting they would surreptitiously serve cat?

Has a Chinese restaurant ever actually been caught doing this or is it just subtle racism?

The truth is there is not much meat on an alleycat. Cats are a legendary pain to round up and despatch at it is a lot easier and predictable from a commercial point of view to just order provisions from a restaurant supply company or market. Plus it just isn't funny anymore.
