only for passengers on private or charter aircraft? Come on.. man.... Here's my prediction. Within 60 days the Chinese will announce a viable vaccine for the virus. The Thai government will accept it as effective. Chinese tourists with vaccination documentation will be allowed in. The Chinese govern...

doesn't have to be a BobCat. I've seen 4WD tractor setups with a hydraulic driven brush cutter attachment too. I'll check out the links Parrot..

138km of track laid, moving past Vang Vieng and Vang Vieng railway station nearly complete. Total length of railway will be around 422km so they're moving right along.. https://eng.yidaiyilu.gov.cn/qwyw/rdxw/148206.htm

yes, probably so, but are bush hog/brush cutters as I've described available in Udon Thain?

Have a friend who has 6 rai of land to get cleared off. Anybody seen contractors with brushcutting machinery like a tracked bobcat with a bushhog/brushcutter?? He's rather not do the usual and expensive excavator smash down...

to get an idea of how big the estate will be you'd have to have a 4wd to circumnavigate the place. It is huge. Yes, the current concrete dual carriageway road stops after perhaps 1.5km into the estate but elsewhere there is a power substation, several large water catchment/reservoirs and from the la...

dump them at the nearest temple? wellll.. some temples have signs up stating they don't want any more cats or dogs. If you were to dump them in the temple behind my place the dogs there would quickly kill them.. While dumping them at the temple will get them out of your car port, I don't see it as s...

four anonymous sources confirmed Trump's crazy talk from back in 2018. For publication in the Atlantic story a mere 60 days before the election. If these four sources were so incensed with Trump's crap why didn't they spill the beans two years ago?? I'd say the Atlantic story is a combination of fac...

KenR.. you do not have a "Social Security Account" with a specified amount of money tagged with your name. You have an SSA.Gov account that shows your earnings. That's not "your" money. Given life expectancies, if you start drawing that sum at age 62 it'll be gone and you'll be living off the SS tru...

as pointed out, unlikely to happen here with a significant portion of the economy "off the books." Too much business going on with cash at the lower to middle levels of society here to force a cashless system on them. How would the BiB ensure traffic fines were paid?

plus the village chief should know where every boggy sumphole mosquito breeding ground is located and not only fog them but deposit the larvacide pellets in the water.. The mosquito eradication efforts should also include people asking entry into people's land to fog and to find and educate the owne...

So, whatever happened to the police issuing a computer generated ticket that could be paid through your bank, at a pay point, 7-11, or whatever..?? Then the linkup to Land Transport to ensure that those who didn't pay would not be able to get their vehicle tax decal until the traffic fines were paid...

let them also offer as part of the package a COVID-19 insurance policy meeting the Thai government's requirements..

yes, article is over four years old. Any followup?

I find a former Bernie Sander's advisor's opinion on the choice between Trump and Biden spot on: "Nina Turner, a co-chair of the Sanders campaign, told me she has no appetite for the choice she faces: “It’s like saying to somebody, ‘You have a bowl of **** in front of you, and all you’ve got to do i...

sentences commuted to life in prison.. Chances are they weren't going to get put to death. The question is, did they apply for the Royal Pardon? If they did and it had been denied then by the rules they would have been put to death in a very short time frame.. This happened on 18 June 2018 when a 28...

why go for some humongous 4 lane overpass? Why not a two lane one that allows one lane each way to go over both the Sahm Phrao and Nong Sai intersections. Would be quicker to build too. They've done plenty of those big concrete 2 lane U-turns down south of Khorat. So they got it all standardized.. B...
