So the whole crackdown is nothing but raising the fine from 500 to 2000 baht? what have they doing the last 20 years? Thailand is still at the top for motorcycle deaths and injuries in the world every year there is no comprehensive program involving early education and training in school or part of DMV efforts or community outreach programs their whole program is to raise the penalty to the equivalent of starting fires…and we know how ineffective that has been the rains will clean up the air pollution but will have the opposite effect of riding in the rain and wet/flooded streets

What a ridiculous statement about more vietnamese workers than Thai workers… there are probably more Thais in that downstairs freelance place on lower Sukhumvit then the total number of vietnamese workers in all of Bkk

A bullet better than a shotgun shell 😎

The word surge means to get stronger more powerful moving forward etc the article should have used the word weakens as that what the Thai is doing against the dollar Thus article poorly written

More likely excessive speeding and losing control… never the driver’s fault…killed by the car and not the driver…he was along just for the ride and so driving in LOS continues

Maybe you chose the wrong place to live? You chose the wrong side of the RRtracks…always amusing of guys who speak of moral character with a Pattaya address Pattaya is nothing but a dirty beach dump and we shall go from there… try Hua Hin or Trang if you want respectability

Get serious….

Sounds like a lost soul…

I just a rinse off...I save the soapy stuff for Bkk

Here is the problem with your thinking…you must already have regulations being enforced before you can throw out mystical punishment and penalties

So the owner has 5k baht to clean up the mess…if no damage just collecting trash and cleaning the rental….that cost is way less than half the deposit so the owner actually made a few baht should have collected the extension monies in advance forcing the renters to clean the place if they wanted their deposit back (which is always at the iffy/mercy of the owner)

That is against the law…this isn’t Vietnam

Is this part of the Thai Rak Thai campaign ? neighbors not helping is a disgusting practice….response was an hour late b/c people didn’t call it in or the response was truly late?

Arrest him in England…do the trial there?

This is just a distraction technique from real issues like the dangerous Thai roads or air pollution or hazardous waste dumping at sea

Not paying rent the electric bill is bad behavior…but she is getting high for free…she says she is devastated…no, a family member killed in an auto accident that is devastating…..garbage does not equal damage place looks dirty but no examples of damage were given…why was that left out of story?

Hard to believe that staff couldn’t find a vein so the doctor told the patient to go w/o conscious sedation? Never heard such a thing

The point is the poster is correct...You invite theft though obviously the thieves have had no idea bike values... Where i come from which is the bike capital of America, only 10% of bikes are recovered...Very sophisticated pro bike thieves at work...Not stupid enough to do what happened here

not smart to lock such an expensive bike outside and at night... Not smart to list on FB asap

I am not going to quibble. Living in Thailand is 1/5 of the cost of living in the USA. The US does adjust for COLA regardless of overseas living so we are lucky. I do understand why countries don't give adjustments. We are talking big money savings to those countries given it is so much cheaper to live overseas...

If you have your current 90 day receipt stapled in your PP, it doesn't matter what process you used to get it there....

I didn’t take it he was high at the time of the murder…amazing that the baby wasn’t stabbed but it must of fell to the floor and away from the assault?

Pretty sure the child can’t leave thailand on an expired thai passport but can come back if the passport expired when the child was gone… I just got my 14 year old child her new thai passport and they wanted to see my passport and my wife’s thai ID/passport and we both had to sign a screen document what I don’t know is what you have to do if one or both parents are not present with necessary documents… must be a way given that parents divorce die or out of province/country good news is they delivered it by post within one week to home address at least in Chiang Mai

Do you mean like Ali? Float like a butterfly and……I’ll let you finish his 2nd most famous quote… and if you can’t, go away

It’s not…May is going to bring record breaking humidity
