Kat atas tu ada banyak kedai makan, setiap kedai memanggil2 tetamu untuk makan di kedai mereka. Banyak yang menyajikan menu Siam. Yang menariknya di situ waktu akan jadi kurang satu jam sebab ntah macam mana phone akan ikut waktu . Terpinga-pinga dibuatnya.

Ch3 news was showing some vision of a policeman applying CPR. If this person lived it was not due to the CPR which was done completely incorrectly. I'm glad the officer tried, and we have good samaritan laws here to give people confidence to help.

But, how is it that a policemen has not been trained properly in CPR?

George Lee gave up meat for 100 days after his grandfather died, per his native Taiwan, traditional Buddhist mourning ritual. It was then that Lee “started to feel something that anchored my interest in vegetarian cooking.” Today, Lee is a vegan chef, and Atlas Obscura talks to him about “A-Gong’s Table,” his new cookbook that explores the potential of plant-based foods. https://flip.it/GldfRg

context:

harvesting #durian in the #philippines or #thailand

someone up high is cutting off the fruit and dropping it down

it's a heavy hard fruit, a hit to the noggin is definitely life threatening, and durian has killed

it also has lots of big sharp spikes, that's how it catches in the burlap

i'd be dead within the first hour of work

#IDF says two #Thai #hostages earlier believed to be alive in #Gaza were killed in the October 7 attack and their bodies are being held in the Palestinian territory. "We informed the families of two kidnapped Thai citizens, who worked in agriculture in the plantations near Kibbutz Beeri, that they were murdered in the terrorist attack on October 7 and their bodies are being held by Hamas," said army spokesman Daniel Hagari.

Indonesia is moving its capital to Kalimantan island. And now,

"#Thailand may have to consider relocating its capital #Bangkok because of rising sea levels.

Bangkok’s city government is exploring measures that include building dikes, along the lines of those used in the Netherlands, he said.

But “we’ve been thinking about moving”, Pavich said, noting that the discussions were still hypothetical and the issue was “very complex”."

#Sweden is likely to offer a Lease/finance arrangement similar to the one
it has with #Thailand. This is more
cost-effective than an outright sale
even compared to a "budget" fighter jet
such as the #FA50.

It's also expected to further sweeten
the deal with the offer of an #Saab2000Erieye early warning system as part of the Gripen package #Philippines
