  7. A severe freshwater crisis has hit Thailand's southern province of Krabi, leaving Phi Phi Islands without tap water. In several other regions, residents receive tap water only on alternate days. The escalating crisis resulted in the suspension of water services by Waterhill Company, which operates a reservoir on Phi Phi islands, as raw water levels reach critically low. Despite efforts from the Royal Rainmaking Unit at Krabi Airport, which commenced twice-daily cloud seeding operations on Tuesday, April 23, the targeted areas have seen no rainfall. Furthermore, even Mueang Krabi, a major urban area, is not spared, with the Provincial Waterworks Authority stating that there's an insufficient raw water supply for tap water production. Phi Phi island's reservoir, which has been dry for three days, spans five rai, while the Royal Irrigation Department's reservoir, supervised by the subdistrict administration organisation, covers three rai and is also in a similar condition. Consequently, residents and small businesses without their water sources have to purchase water at escalated prices of 150-200 per cubic metre. -- 2024-04-26 Get our Daily Newsletter - Click HERE to subscribe

  13. Some of this agree with. The gift thing, totally on board with, but it's little different in the West when you go visit you take a bottle of wine or the like. I've never liked holding hand and certainly not kissing in public, so that for me is a given I supported my parents in their old age, but maybe an Hispanic thing not totally Asian. Food ditto Gik thing. Well pretty sure my wife would chop off my balls in my sleep if I even thought about it!
  14. Big Joke demands top job at Royal Thai Police HQ Picture: Creative Common License via Bing General Surachate Hakparn, popularly known as 'Big Joke', made his return to the Royal Thai Police headquarters this Thursday.

  15. General Surachate Hakparn, popularly known as 'Big Joke', made his return to the Royal Thai Police headquarters this Thursday. The former top police officer pledged to take legal actions against what he strongly believes is an internal conspiracy aimed at thwarting his chances of becoming Commissioner. Recently removed from his position, 'Big Joke' voiced grave criticism on the current acting National Police Commissioner, General Kittirat Phanphet. He singled out the acting chief for particular scrutiny, stating that his dismissal process was legally flawed and argued it was based on an outdated procedure. Surachate argued his displacement was executed based on an obsolete method, which was superseded by the updated Thailand 2022 Police Act. The assertion insinuates that his removal may have been unceremonious and potentially unlawful. Despite the challenges, Surachate remained steadfast in his belief that he is the most suited for the role of the National Police Commissioner. He reiterated his aspiration to assume the position in October. Asserting he was the best fit for the National Police Commissioner role, he subtly criticized the acting Police Commissioner, General Kittirat Phanphet. Hakparn spoke out against a group within the police force he described as a 'cabal,' which he believes is trying to thwart his advancement. He promised to initiate legal action against them. He contended that the method used for his removal a week prior was ill-conceived and based on an obsolete process replaced by the 2022 Police Act. After retracting a complaint against the Prime Minister two days prior, Hakparn made a resolute comeback. When addressing reporters, he affirmed his position as a deputy police chief, arguing that his dismissal hasn't been officially confirmed with a royal decree.

  16. That's true but the Allies fought an actual World War; Europe, Asia, Australia\Oceania, Africa, N America, S America and the oceans and seas throughout the world. Stalin fought the brunt of the war in Russia. He was also allied with the Japanese and actually gave Japan information concerning Allied intelligence. After the Allied victory of Okinawa, Stalin declared war on Japan in August of 1945 and invaded Manchuria. He knew the Allies would invade Japan from the south. He wanted a piece of it and would have invaded from the north. If that happened Japan as we know it today would not exist. It'd been another Germany; there would be North Japan and South Japan; North Tokyo and South Tokyo. It was also estimated that an invasion of Japan would have claimed at least a million lives. I'm not disparaging the Russian people at all. They suffered the most during the war and a lot of that is on Stalin. To claim Stalin saved Europe is quite laughable.
  17. can someone please translate this comment into actual english. i am far too stupid to understand it.
  18. If the victim’s phone was locked (like most are) then any banking data on her phone would not have been available to the thieves.
  19. Still remember the face of the bastard Thai purser that refused to serve me more alcohol in the first class cabin of the 747 on a flight from Bali to Bangkok around 10 years ago.
  20. I married my wife 16 years ago... she was 32 at the time and the Pinkey ( the baby in the family ) I paid for the 2 wedding bands ( gold was very low at that time ) her eldest sister put up wads of her cash and jewlery on the Sin Sod display trays to show boat ( she said that was old school and not fair to me ) and we split the bill for the reception dinner, Monks and ceremony at the Siam House in Bangkok ... quite spectacular food and atmosphere $1200/US for 75 people there was also the envelopes with 100Baht ea for the brides maids 1@ front door 1@ stair case to go up and 2 for the maid of honor at her dressing room door I gave her 1 and she smiled and said.. Oh.. you don't love her that much ? so I had to fork over a second.. ha ha ... Then at the end of the party when I went to retrieve my shoes .. i noticed her cousins all wearing sh*t eating grins,, so I paid 1 envelope and got 1 shoe back then ( me being somewhat of a smart ass..) I had some blanks with me and handed 1 over to get my other shoe back ... funny as hell when he opened it and it was empty. ( and we are still good friends to this day )
