According to the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter Thailand military government is to buy the Swedish fighter Plane JAS Gripen.

The deal is really old since the former PM tried to buy JAS as well from Sweden but wanted to barter with chickens. The Swedish government declined the offer and it looks like that was the best bet.

There is some NGO in Sweden that are not that happy with the sale off course since Thailand is now run by a military government. Even if the deal is sure anything can happen when the new government comes to power after the 23 December this year.

A Thailand tiger has almost vanished and they need to bee rescued now. Before this website supported the Tiger Temple in Thailand with our website walking with Tigers that donated money to the Tiger Temple in Thailand I am not sure now if that was the right thing to do.

The temple does not want to let the tigers go and just breeding them to show for tourists and when I read this advice how to deal with tigers I get very depressed.

If you want to help the tigers there are many things you can do like

Support the website Walking with tigers we support the tigers call for freedom not the temple we make sure our money goes to the tigers no to the temple.

Spreading the word and raising awareness is an important part of efforts to protect wild tigers. Many consumers are inadvertently contributing to the problem. Make sure everyone around you knows that products made from poached tigers are not cool!

Don’t keep tigers as pets

Owning a tiger as a pet is not a good way to care for the species. Holding a tiger captive as a pet deprives the animal of its natural hunting and survival skills. No matter how big your garden, it will feel like a matchbox to a fully grown tiger born to roam a wide range.

Donate to a cause that tackles the tiger trade

You can support the species further and feel connected to these magnificent big cats by taking responsibility for a tiger in the wild. Donating to wildlife protection groups will help support rangers that patrol national parks, species monitoring and care, as well as efforts to reduce illegal trafficking and trade.

Some people thing they do not eat dogs in Thailand but they do. Sure most of the dogs are send to China and Laos but in North Thailand many people eat dogs and think its good for many things.

People mostly like to have black dogs as dinner because they have magical powers and you get power by eating a black dog. In North Thailand some restaurants have bowls upside down outside the door and that mean they serve dogs as food.

Thailand want to make Thailand into yet another hub this time they want to make it into a hub for Muslim food. Sounds like an excellent idea if it was not for the fact that we can hardly control the bird flue in the country and that the government are in war with Muslims in South Thailand with 1000 of people dead every year. Sure Thailand exports some Muslim food but to call Thailand a world hub would be to scream little bit to much. Who created this worlds hub anyway in Thailand?
