The accused looks decent enough; Clean,  modestly dressed, shaved etc.

I had a difficult time recognizing who the gangster was. They forgot to point.

Excellent article by Theodore Dalrymple. From 2006 but things have only got worse since then.

His last sentence perhaps sums up why so many of us are happy living in Thailand.

[But one does not feel the defects of a foreign country in quite the same lacerating way as the defects of one's native land; they are more an object of amused, detached interest than of personal despair].<BR clear=all>

Did some real grocery shopping there today for the first time since the handover and didn't really notice much of a change. All my favorite departments were pretty much the same, including the dairy/cheese, meats, and bakery. There was still a good selection of imported dairy and canned/jarred cheeses and sauces and all my favorite breads were still there. Don't know about prices as like someone said, if I need/want something I just buy it. Fruits and veggies seemed the same as well...not as good as Central Beach but on par with Foodland.

Likewise at Carrefour (Now Big C) Ratchada Rd BKK.   Little change there. "Casino" products have taken the place of the Carrefour
brand products.
