Re: Nuclear Power for Thailand

LFTR nuke plants can offer a tested technology to fulfill the promise of nuclear power. Look it up. Yeah, I'm a fan of Thorium tech myself but the issue of Nuclear Energy has been sooo hugely muddled by the NGOs of the world and most people, who don't bother to educate themselves on the topic or la...

Re: Is Farang an f word?

Man, what a zombie of a thread. This is turning out just as bad as peace in the Middle East issue with one side willing to make concession and the other side demanding nothing short of a total victory. Here we have the local people and culturally literate foreigners on one side trying to explain the...

Re: Nuclear Power for Thailand

Drake: Leaks are not inevitable you said. Hmm how about Japans Earth Quake? If it is designed and maintained by human beings, mistakes will be made. Its inevitable, sorry. Money prevented them from building the reactor higher up from the beach than they did. Money is almost always the weak link. Th...

Re: Farang cannot know Thai-ness

Drake, what might a homogenized global culture be? A natural element? Or perhaps a sinister fabrication? It's partly organic and partly forced evolution. [these bits were swept out to sea with the last high tides] The Old Way, the Thai-ness that this thread had been trying to fathomed, is buried un...

Re: Brilliant

I believe the general and overall conclusion is sorely being missed throughout most discussion regarding the area. It's not modern reference, it's an historically ancient one. This region [and the dispute] has nothing whatsoever to do with modern times....and it's not Thai. Nothing whatsoever to do...

Re: Brilliant

Your second quote did not originate from me so if you are going to provide an accurate and concise response please dont fabricate what has been said. Your politicians already do this sufficiently. Certainly wasn't your quote. It was a buggered hypertext flag <fixed>. Think what you like but don't a...

Re: Farang cannot know Thai-ness

I get the feeling you are suggesting that Thais get rid of their culture/language all together and replace it with homogenized Western blahs so farangs won't get too utterly confused anymore, no ? I agree with many of your remarks, but that is (for me) beside the point regarding the subject we talk...

Re: Brilliant

Its about time the military were put in the rightfull place. There are two kinds of people in the world, those with loaded guns, and those who dig. The military, they've got lots of guns, tanks, and stuff. You've got, what ? If Thailand wants to be part of the world community, its about time to abi...

Re: Western Democracy Vs Thai Democracy

Thailand has never been known by outsiders as those developed countries to be a truth modern democracy. Mob rule is a rule of thumb in Amazing Thailand. The mob ruled the military, the police, the judiciary, the government houses, and big businesses ... and on the streets. The mobs with the right c...
