  1. Past hour
  2. He went into the back country to personally meet Thais of all classes. He met with Heads of State. President Barack Obama meet with King Bhumibol Adulyadej of the Kingdom of Thailand, at Siriraj Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand, Nov. 18, 2012. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza)
  3. Why don't they carry Tasers, and use them on idiots trying to resist arrest. Or would that need an apology from the PM.
  4. A nice example of how mediaeval barbarism outlasts fitful Western attempts to bring modernity and freedom ... Though of course it was (at least in part) the Soviet invasion of late 1979 that set off the current round of endless horrors.
  5. In a way I feel sorry for you Aust24R, mainly because it would seem that you have strong feelings for your wife, and I believe she is playing you, especially when you find out that she has been "with other men". It's time to "man up" and get out of that relationship because it's toxic, and I certainly wouldn't stand for my wife shagging other guys whilst I was away, for me that would be an absolute no-no. I was in a steady, almost 6 year relationship with a good woman here and the only time she ever asked for money was for her mother's funeral, which I gladly gave her, and I also went to the funeral up north. However during that time and for some time after the funeral and the burning, she refused to speak to me, as if I had done something wrong, which I hadn't and I couldn't find a reason for it. So we were living in the same house with her young daughter and there was no communication whatsoever, and I did warn her that I wouldn't put up with it if it continued and gave her a deadline, once that deadline passed I gave her another one and when that passed I told her to get all of her stuff together and leave – – which she did. Being the softhearted guy I am I wanted to provide the daughter with a future, so I took care of her education, as well as buying a small business for my ex-GF for her future. Basically I got out of the relationship because it was not conducive to a happy life for me and I didn't come here to be miserable. I have taken care of "our" daughter and she has now just graduated from university north of Bangkok and is to be a teacher, and I am still in touch with my ex-GF on Messenger, and we are fine. Life is not about trying to keep your "head above water", but enjoying it as much as possible. My advice is to get out of that situation ASAP.
  6. 1. AFL is back! Crazy game, crazy people. 2. MLB is back. The polar opposite, I think. 3. That's it for now. You can add your own.
  7. Lots of big obstacles to overcome to build a Nuclear Power Plant. Where in Thailand would be suitable? Constant water supply for cooling and away from areas subject to sea level rise
  8. Keep your notes in the proper orientation in your wallet and place it in your back pocket and sit on it. By your butt crack is ok just don't step on it.
  9. I'm fine with that, can I suggest that you don't ask simple questions that only require one word answers, and then accuse the replier of lying.
  10. Why that corrupt fascist Trump is not in jail by now is beyond me. A coup plotter, however incompetent he may be, is allowed to run for president again, like nothing happened. Certainly an embarrassing performance by the famed American legal system. And all this while Biden is in charge. This certainly will be his legacy, democracy and the rule of law going down the drain.
  11. You're probably right, because they are all dirty. And the dirtiest of them all is the de facto PM.
  12. If you don't act you can't make mistakes. Srettha has to first check how many influential toes he would tread on if he acted (assuming of course that one of those toes isn't his own). It's a legal mine field out there, as brave as this lawyer is it could be his financial ruin, it isn't only bullets that can silence a man. This is Thailand and it doesn't like the light of truth.
  13. Which impeachment? The GOP has dropped the idea after having been regularly ridiculed. 😀
  14. Yeah I dunno too. I make up my own mind with 1m baht.
  15. so nothing to do with the fluctuation of the Baht then strangely the dollar performed in a similar way against the baht
  16. London calling what's this dusky pink red notice you sent us ..is it some kind of bad joke 🤔
  17. The campaign going on across the West to make criticism of Israel, in particular its policies regarding Palestinians, be categorized as anti-Semitism is intended to suppress legitimate speech, even outlaw it in some cases. There is a government ministry in Israel created to combat BDS (boycott, divestment, sanctions). In the US this campaign is pushed by Christian Zionists who are a major force in the Republican Party.
  18. Will casinos have bookmakers as well, assume that is a big part of gambling scene?
  19. You wouldn't happen to have a list of benefits of leaving would you? I mean in real terms, not ideological terms. Taking back control? Bwahahahahaha.
  20. Absolutely true - plus you must never visit the Mother/Family - the wife can go by herself (like she did before you arrived). Sorry to say this, but you better start checking things out in detail mate. She could be genuine and her mother/family is just using her to get money out of the Falang, or she is actually an active participant in squeezing money out of the Falang - and maybe has already done this before. Whatever happens, never allow her to access your money/bank - Thais are extremely 'compliant' and daughters will do what they are told to do by their Mother/Family. You need to keep a very close eye on things and keep her on a very short lead - and watch how things develop going forward. Plus - mate - you need a plan B - a quick exit strategy and plan in place - just in case. If it does all go to sheite one day, you must leave the country - you have no idea how things can be brought down on you by a Thai family in 'revenge mode' - everything from Police arrest and charges to being charged with some very serious crime. Now that might never goping to happen, but by the sounds of it and yourself, you need to have a Plan B in place. If that happens - go home and regroup and try another country - Philippines etc. Dont come back - you could be arrested at airport or just denied entry.
