The "hi-so scum" are trying to prevent Thailand from becoming another Zimbabwe. The Shinawatras are socialists and the rice program they instituted was right up there with Mao's Great Leap forward in terms of policy backfires. Thaksin also executed about 10,000 people without trial during his reign.

So it's not as simple as Red Shirts good, Yellow Shirts bad.

Yeah, the Red Shirts have the numbers and would win a democratic election. The problem is that they have shown that they plan to **** everything up when they do.

the rice scheme was flawed, but it's essentially just a subsidy for farmers. that money gets injected into the north-east economy which is the region is most need of development.

one bad policy is hardly going to send the country to zimbabwe status. thailand's economy has boomed under PTP. growth in the north-east of the country has been astonishing. the baht has remained strong. unemployment is under 1%. the market disagrees with your assertion that the rice scheme will send thailand to the wall. zimbabwe on the other hand is a failed state with hyperinflation and a barter economy.

also, PTP have implemented many infrastructure projects in areas of the country previously neglected.

The rice scheme isn't a subsidy, it's a guarantee to buy any amount of rice at a set price regardless of market conditions. That's effective nationalisation. And those farmers still haven't been paid. The rice scheme doesn't create *any* money. It cost Thailand tens of billions because they government ridiculously thought they could alter the world market price by setting their own price. What actually happened is that people bought their rice elsewhere, and now Thailand has a stockpile of billions of tons of rice sitting around that nobody wants to buy.

And it's pretty silly to say that's their only bad policy. It was the one that got Yingluck booted out though. The utter stupidity of this policy alone shows that the government is not fit to govern. A 15 year old child could have told them their plan wasn't going to work.

Zimbabwe is a failed state because the government stole everything from what they viewed as the undeserving rich and gave it to the poor, who had no idea what to do with and subsequently starved. Which is kind of what the Shinawatras have been doing to Thailand over the last 10 years, albeit on a much less drastic scale.

Prior to that happening, Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) was the most successful country in Africa.

umm its probably a terrible idea to get back into poker now when you haven't played since BF. games aren't exactly soft these days

Double dropping viagras is not good man, half or less should do the trick

asia needs more wheat and less rice in their diet

going to nana plaza and getting whiskey dick is like filling up on mcdonalds before your dinner reservation. everyones done in but its lol ridiculous. getting viagra is looking at the problem backwards imo

If you can't get an erection, try punching a woman in the face. She'll probably thank you for it later.

Unless you're over 50.

My theory is that Thais feel threatened by younger farangs and don't want them here, but they see the older expats as pathetic and not much of a threat.

I heard thats the case in phuket town, you can google it and youll see many tourists get told unfriendly to go to patong if they go night clubbing in phuket town.. i rarely do any clubbing though, not so interested in it and I prefer picking up girls elsewhere or else you just find girls that want to go clubbing every night.

My theory is that nobody gives a f**, and that you make too much theory. Why the hell would they feel threatened?

avg dick size is 4 inches in thailand. google it if you want.

you do the math.

I don't know WTF is an inch. Do you mind using the metric system like any normal person on this planet?

North Korea 3.8 inch
South Korea 3.8 inch
India 4 inch
Cambodia 4 inch
Thailand 4 inch
Philippines 4.2 inch
Taiwan 4.2 inch
Sri lanka 4.3 inch
China 4.3 inch
Japan 4.3 inch
Hong Kong 4.4 inch
Bangladesh 4.4 inch
Malaysia 4.4

no wonder the gogo girls squeal when a group of korean or japanese saps enter the bar...

probably a-level is on the table if you're 3.8 inches even with the gogo superstars.

koreans in the gogos all won, no wang. if you know what i mean...

probably

Awesome the dick leader board of Asia, and all along I thought you were useless.

What do you guys do for cash while you're there? Global currency cards and pay the exchange rate? Or do most people open a Thai bank account and try to get their winnings paid into it?

lol I always thought my gf and the hookers were just being nice when they said "its so long". Literally every girl has said that and my gf told me im the biggest dck shes ever had. I always thought they were doing it for my ego hahaha.

Democratic republic of the Congo is smashing the leader board at 7.1".

Congrats on your dick.

try random thai condom that s a huge boost to your ego and great to have some condom breaking scare

Thanks bro I'll send you my next porn video if you want.

thai bank, you just verify a thai address with e.g. pokerstars, and cashout to it by bank wire, or keep your EU address and use skrill/neteller as a middle man

so there's this app 'privasee' you can take pics by tapping screen but no one can see what you're doing, it just looks like a web browser

just remember to turn off the flash or it could get awkward :P

anyone have a tooth pulled in Chiang Mai? I'm looking for a dentist there and wondering what the prices were like, I imagine it's around 3k. I'm only there a few weeks but it's like triple that in the states so hoping to get it done.
