Finally some reasonable idea

which one you talking about ? Korn / Knock or Sarawat / Tine ? Asking out of curiosity as I like both pairs anyways

My Engineer completed, hope it will be promised season 2 as it makes an impression of unfinished business on the last episode which by the way has two great kissing scenes - Duen / Bohn and King / Ram, last pair is my favorite couple out of 4 in the series and only one not acting childish .

reminder to us that there are countries where Covid is not the most pressing and malicious problem

lesson from Belarus where also ladies feature prominently in protests. Very few governments want TV footage showing cops massacring grannies and young mothers not to mention school girls

those are not normal times, in fact it's unprecedented year, at least when comes to travel as all previous pandemics were well before mass travel time. Very rich are also mostly in high risk group and may be less inclined to travel those days until they find a way to bribe virus to jump on somebody else.

Venezuela comes to mind

not that badly as in 8 episodes I did not notice it, only when I read it here I realized that it's the case. Or perhaps I'm too stupid to notice ? By the way I think Ram is most handsome of the whole set.

I wish them fun filled vacation as certainly the whole scheme is devised to ensure

In meantime those who can have an access to THE ECONOMIST , last , 17-23 October issue may find interesting quite detailed and surprisingly frank article "Thailand's royal battle ".

in meantime people who normally would be waiting tables, manning receptions, selling trinkets and busing tourists around with all that free time tourist void created can and do attend rallies demanding structural changes to a country

Watching ' My Engineer " now, after slow start around episode 5 it starts becoming interesting and making me curious 'what's next ?". Side character Ram extremely handsome, unusual character for the movies as he barely speaks, all face and body expression only.

what's that? unheard of recently

I sense you don't like Orange Overlord

I'd gladly fly even 737 MAX to BKK with 4 or 5 refueling stops on the way

who calls those cheapies "Elite' ?

market economy at work

as we are grounded along with 737MAX , now it's good time to try to scare us from flying, LOL

and probably you saved a lot. Few years ago I had some dental job to do and I saved about half of my flight cost on difference between my local price and what I paid in BKK. Other countries with good dental value are Hungary and Poland

Thailand , new North Korea but without nukes

# me too

add some vinegar that that salt you are rubbing into our open wounds

only question is where it will be flying with most flights grounded and airports half mothballed

my problem with " first past the post " is that large part of population may be left without representation. To extreme , in country withy say , 500 constituencies theoretically one party needs only 500 more votes nationwide than all others to have all deputies in parliament. Other is that practically only one constituency is electing prime minister. Party may have absolute majority and lose on only handful of constituencies , one of them is where it's choice for PM was starting and lost. Bottom line is either system has good and bad sides

problem is that due to weight of American presidency in the world affairs nobody is really outsider
