  1. Hip, Hip, Hoo-ray............. IF ... They don't circumvent it for family/grand-kids of their 'cronie' friends...
  2. TIT.... This is Thailand.... Many years ago, supposedly RUSSIA gave communism the boot. If you are in Thailand and you have a look around.... You can see where that communism went.... (Thailand's best bed-partner, CHINA included)...... This Alcohol thing and business not allowed to do business as usual is nothing but a money grabber for the authorities and has the 'authorities pockets' bulging...... I have almost 45 years past with Thailand, I am married to the most wonderful Thai wife 25 years, and I LOVE Thai 'common People', but I hate those who control them (Authorities) and steal them blind and keep them poor.... THIS RESTRUANT RAID has no concern for 'Thai's', ONLY money for the authorities....
  3. WOW!!!!! That is about the same as giving the TALIBAN in Afghanistan more Military Supplies.... Very Sad... That the intended 'poor' will never see it....... Very Sad, indeed....
  4. Being as how we are talking about THAILAND........... I can't help but wonder what this government has in mind as 'Help'........... After the graft is done I can only guess that the help will be about 500 or 1000 baht monthly..... Certainly not enough to help with a car or land or cow.......
  5. What is the governor apologizing for???? That he was so busy stuffing his pockets with that tax money that he didn't get around to spending any of it on 'Flood Control' and prevention?????
  6. I think she has basic good intent.....Probably a bit over cautious as uneducated Thais can be...... But 'I Think'..... If you look past this and judge by 'other things', You will love her to bits..... IF NOT..... Kiss her bye-bye..... It is so simple.....
  7. I think 'comfy'.... Many passengers will have a whole row of seats to lay down and sleep... Even those Cargo flights will bring in foreign crews that will spend money... More if they can find a restaurant serving drinks....
  8. This lady didn't take time to think about walking moment in the 'other guy's shoes', as my mother taught me......... In other words: take a moment to think about the 'OTHER PERSON'S ' side of the situation.... As if she was out there on those ropes..... So many years ago my mother taught me to think about what it is like to walk a mile in that other person's shoes for a day -- attempt to think like them.... To figure out 'THEIR' reasoning.... Often when doing that you can understand how they were right and YOU were wrong.... A lesson for us all..... My mother tried to teach me many valuable lessons, Rest Her Soul.....
  9. As pissy as that 20 million amount (For the job funded)... It will be a lot less, depending on how many grafter's hands it passes thru before arriving in the proper account.....
  10. In contrast to this... On the same topic.... Have you seen the North Korean guy KIM pictured smiling as he watches some of his own soldiers have their hands smashed with a sledge hammer (among other torturous training) --- AS TRAINING..... HE probably wouldn't condone this law in NK.... https://www.yahoo.com/news/kim-jong-un-applauds-north-185800338.html
  11. I admire you and the Thai wife... What a great achievement.... Sorry to say that i been married 53 years to 4 wives.... (It has been a bit like the 'kiddie' merry-go-round... 2 American and 2 Thai wives.... Number 4 is Thai and I joke with her - we been together 25 years so 'That makes you the 'winner'..... That is what I joked with her recently..........
  12. A VERY stupid comparison........ The answer, since you are so uneducated to know it: maybe 1% might die versus the 99% who will be 'saved'............
  13. Maybe soon we will hear about this guy and his 'millions' and expensive cars or other items, maybe 'wrist watches'.... that he has amassed while holding his Gov't position...
  14. With all the road fatalities and crazy drivers in Thailand..... I prefer something strong around me and family..... That is why I prefer to drive a PICKUP truck..... 4 door......
  15. I like your post because I see your ' Stand for the flag' motto at the bottom........ We are in agreement there......... Love it or leave it......
  16. In the USA that is 'EXACTLY WHAT THEY DO'..... I have had a $20 and a $100 (This $100 I was suspicious of) confiscated here at my bank..... Those 'scanning (counting) machines' they use at money changers in Thailand and Banks everywhere are made to detect counterfeit bills.... When I take cash to Thailand, I normally ask my bank here in the USA to give me 'perfect' bills of the latest or newest printing... I've done it often before Covid and no problem..... Maybe 2-3 years ago an American Friend of mine who has lived in Pattaya for 10-15 years went to Cambodia and saw in a market place that they were selling packs of 50 Fake $100 bills for a couple dollars..... He bought a pack of them and flew back to Thailand with them... Just for novelty, without intent to pass them -- just give them to friends and girls.... I asked him when he told me the story... WHAT IF THEY HAD CAUGHT YOU AT AIRPORT..... and arrested you for possession of a large quantity of 'counterfeit money'....... He then realized how he risked largely... only for a bit of fun.....
  17. I might contribute my history (and experience) in Thailand going back 40-50 years... I have been married 4 times... 2 American wives and 2 Thai wives.... I am now 25 years with #4 Thai wife and I tell her she is the winner.... The hardest working most thoughtful woman in the world.... BUT, 25 years ago I met her thinking she would be same as the previous 3 and gone soon, I met a girl in Thailand at near the same time .... For 25 years I have continued a relationship with both (I have an huge amount of Airline miles)... In the US a legal marriage, In Thailand only 'Mia Noi' 25 year status... Presently I have 4 other Thai girls, I consider my 'Harem'.... and during the Pandemic and my absence for a year and a half, I am still supporting them all, Bi-weekly or monthly... I am not cursing any of them nor are they cursing me... The American-Thai wife doesn't know anything about the others, But is over a millionaire (in the US), and could care less.... The Mia Noi in Thailand knows pretty much all I do, But doesn't dump me because she owns 5 homes (2 in Pattaya, 1 in Bangkok) and is probably a 'Thai money millionaire' several times over.... The Harem is 4 Thai Bar girls (2 Lesbians - but Bi-sexuals).... And I am honest and tell them that I am married and I AM NOT 'HUSBAND MATERIAL' And they are free to look for guys that will marry them and care for them. They are greatful for my support during this pandemic while their bars closed..... Soooo. The Point I am making and hope you will realize is:.... There are all kinds of people out there in this world... In Thailand I find their is a large amount of desperate poor, some of them think the farangs are for milking.... But there are sooooooo Many Thai girls who are desperate and respectful and appreciative and would NEVER do you as THIS lady did to you.... My 3rd wife was a Thai bar girl I met working a job in a bar in Patpong in Bangkok and she was much the same as your lady... She didn't last long... Number 4 wife, A Thai lady I met working in a 'Sweat-Shop' in Los Angeles sewing clothes for $18-$20 per day, (not a bar girl).... She is the 'winner' and enjoys her comfortable life..... I want to make the point clear, Whether in Thailand or America, or Australia or Austria, You may have either good luck or bad luck in the people you meet... Some of us guys aren't perfect also, AND I BOIL IT DOWN TO YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR... vs, WHAT YOU EXPECT.... And one last thought is 'Your Thai Lady/wife' may not have gone astray if you stayed together 100% of the time.... Sometimes they just are vulnerable when left alone......
  18. Status Yes...... 'Face'....... Stupid people think these dogs make them look 'Daring' and 'Loving' at the same time.... Or something similar, In the eyes of other 'Hiso friends'.... They are STUPID........ AND you can't fix STUPID...... So you must 'fight FIRE WITH FIRE.... THOSE WHO HAVE THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF INTELLEGENCE can beat this STUPID bunch.... Rat poison has Arsenic in it... Mixed with other dog food It does the job.... But bear in mind that the rat poison is geared toward a creature less than Half a Kilo..... Arsenic builds up in a body, never vacates that body, so for a dog of 10-15 kilo, You could need 10-15 doggie snacks before you see results... So compare a rats size to a dogs size to decide what is required, and don't forget that it builds up in a body and never vacates a body.... I use rat poison fairly often for Rats and Gophers... A few years ago I had one of my 'pet dogs' find and eat some rat poison and that dog in a few days time dwindled away and died... a lesson for me about keeping my pets safe.... Just a bit of my personal experience with dogs... I hope it is helpful to this forum..
  19. Yes.... This is something to be considered also.... There are a few trolls around on this forum.... But the feedback I am reading is worth that possibility/risk... I still find most replies helpful in case this actually happens near you/me.....
  20. Would you be open to 'Personal Mail' from other posters, as this one in OP, for recommendations to your lawyer and his location....I don't think lawyers need to be in your same area to be helpful.....Lawyers in Thailand cost MUCH, MUCH, LESS, than in Most countries, and I have had good results with a Thai Attorney some 40 years ago...
  21. Why should this guy bitten badly by a pit bull have to move, as you suggest......... That costs bundles of money and every family, especially families with kids are in danger.... Do you recommend that if 20 -30 -50 families move away the problem is solved???????
  22. Many cases you don't need to pay a lawyer to talk and get information... If you had to pay it would be minimal and well worth it.... Talk to your friend to seek out a lawyer... It could be a very good solution... Maybe talk to 2-3 different lawyers would be better....
  23. MY DREAM IS: To see this 'trigger an investigation' Into EVERY COP in Thailand, Starting at the top and working down..... The RTP will have many openings for moving up to higher positions.... As I say..... It is my dream........ and most of them never come true.... LOL...
  24. Now days I am receiving emails similar to this...... I first look at the 'address' of who sent it to me...... If the sender address isn't an official address of companies I do business with.... I dismiss it and click on spam.... I am getting many of these now days... and checking the address of the sender can give you a clue it is spam.... trying to get some of your personal info.... MY ADVISE: never reply to an email received but contact that company WITHOUT replying to the email you received...
