I'm sorry. I do not speak Japanese only. Use Google Translate. We have it in Thailand, "Land of Smiles" and expressed. Many prayers arrived in Japan from Thailand when the earthquake 3.11. I hope that everyone in Thailand to reach my prayers. "You" "Lovers," "family" "friends" pray for the safety of everyone. Do not expand the flood. . . And "Land of Smiles" to continue to pray for daily life and come back soon....

[lovemaker1972]

@888kabe Fact is that Bangkok sooner or later will be ocean this entire city area is below sea level my friend so the sea level still rises year by year.ithink in the next 20 years bankok is gone.they need t move the captial again.maybe to Northern thailand .the problem with thai people is most of them dont learn from their faults in life.it is this nevermind bullshit thinking.but come on this is no way to have a good life in Thailand.bangkok is way to big too many people.

@Agustason Mate these crap stories on Thailand sinking are just that. CRAP. They are being put on youtube by fools who believe the "end of the world" is here!!!. So, as I said to you before, runalong, do some better research, and stop spreading bs. Bye for now.
