One thing to note is that this request is probably from a "Buddhist" perspective, and less to do with encroachment of space.
The foot is considered the dirtiest part of the body and people don't want to accidentally brush against it.So from that perspective, it is complete BS - they are probably disguising the actual motive under the pretext of "blocking the way"
No way is my foot the dirtiest part of my body !

Here we go again with the (mostly) negative comments towards Thailand . . . Why do we need to take a position (against Russia)? Why only white versus black, “who is not with us is against us” . . . ? We do not know anything about the real thoughts and actions of politicians, military and other rich and powerful men, none of them having righteous motives
Many things are in the play, Freedom (we cherish it . . . euh . . . hello Covid vaccination mandate), Democracy (we fight for it . . . In the EU, the Commission takes the decisions, the Parliament handles only less important matters, just like in the old URSS), Economy (selling arms, controlling energy – think of North stream 2, . . .) . . . these are some of the visible reasons. But there are more obscure reasons, one of them being the need for the USA to rally its NATO and EU allies to quell the beginning of some dissensions withing the group . . .
For me, it is wise for Thailand to take a neutral position.
So, if a Russian guy shot your family would you condemn his actions and want revenge on him ?

Appears to me she crawled out of the car after it came to a stand still.
Shows how little you know ! It says that she was thrown out of the car. Better quality cars have self locking doors when you pull away, and are designed to stop the door from opening on impact but unlocking when the car stops.

Thailand to Implement 300-Baht Fee for Foreign Arrivals
in Thailand News - Discussion
Wonderful Thailand ! Now they think that tourists are rushing to get to Thailand for the monsoon season, they are now telling airlines that they have to collect a measly 300 baht and do all the paperwork to see that it goes into the wrong hands in Thailand. Are there even a decent number of planes flying yet ?
