This problem with buses in traffic snarls have been present before I came here in the early eighties, and will probably persist after my reincarnation... How many politicians have come and gone in this one generation? But as the present coup didn't do away with politicians, the ballot boxes will return. And the cycle will return too...

If she was more famous they would let her drive over those people waiting for the bus. Then she would see how developed Thailand is, for some. You think? I once saw a top British actor of a long-running and top-rated tv series waiting for a bus in Shaftsbury Avenue in London. And Paul McCartney said he used to go to his office by bus. There are others that have used the transport system in London, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a good look at what's going on in Thai schools. The answer to your question is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that there is a chance of any real conflict in the region that the Thais can influence or be concerned with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickudon Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Samuel Johson said "Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel." If you don't like criticism, use this as an excuse. Strange, in the UK, anyone who questions Brexit is branded as unpatriotic, You never get an answer to your criticisms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
