  • I need your help, because I don't understand two things that have happened today in Bangkok, Thailand.
    First, from the Bangkok news is the latest update on the Thai Election where the votes are in, but it still feels far from over. Second, my latest video - 60 Seconds in Thailand - got age restricted to viewers over 18 years old. Can you tell me why? Seriously, I am asking for your help. Watch the latest 60 Seconds in Thailand news update and if you have any idea please comment below. Thanks!!

    Nice work! I've always enjoyed your channel. Thanks for trying not to be involved in and take side on Thai politics. You've definitely made the right decision because Thai politics is very complicated and it'd take more than 20 years of looking back to really understand it.
    It's not really "pro-democracy" vs "conservative (pro-authoritarian)" like most medias describe. Partially, it's more about corrupt politicians vs law & order, etc. Even more complicated, each side has several factions, good and bad, mixed together.

    Ok. I need to fix this misunderstanding. Those are not electrical wire. They are old telephone wire mix with internet fiber wire. You won't get electric shock with those.
    You can see there are 2 mass layer of wires on the pole. The electrical wire are upper, at almost the peak of its pole. So Basically, the lower are not dangerous. Well, I mean if you don't tripped over them when you cross a bridge, of course. 😅

    This is in regard to your request to watch the 60-second news video and comment on why UA-cam put an age restriction on this video. It was really hard to figure out. The only scene I thought might be a bad influence for young people to watch was when the Russian drinker drank the lit on-fire vodka and it went down his neck and front of his body. Maybe UA-cam thought that was too dangerous and a bad influence on young people? The only other part may be when you were in the pot shop asking them to roll you up a joint before work. But nothing blatant or obvious. I wonder why... ;0

    As soon as you say cannabis the video is flagged and demonetized. Tim Newton said the “C” world gets him all the time so he started calling it broccoli and his videos were also demonetized. The age restriction is interesting, maybe that was added because you spoke about rolling one up for use.
