Exactly, for that price you could set up a camera with its own satellite system that beams to a receiver at city hall, and still save money.

For that price you could have a decent Police Force and a cop on every corner !

And the poor keep getting poorer and the rich ? Well you know, keep getting big envelopes !

100,000 illegal overstayers and they have managed to catch 300 !  WOW !!   A schoolkid to do better. Must be more than that between Asoke and Nana, and plenty more foreign girls in Soi Nana.  Wont ever see a big raid there, too much money involved,

Should throw them in jail and let them out when they have completed 500 push ups. That will take them a few days !!

It doesn't say in the article that they get deported. Probably buy their way out and go back to their chosen crime. Those that do go home tell their friends how easy it is to make money in Bangkok, so yes, they will still keep coming !

Do your homework and ask locally and then make a low offer and see what the owner says. Too easy !

I hope he gets a nice reward and some sponsors to help him with his sorting career

Imagine how quality tourists feel after spending good money for a holiday by the beach then told not to swim or go in the water?????????????????

There is a good reason which you obviously dont understand....As these beaches are all shallow, what happens is that the rough water and waves come in and as they go out there is a huge under current which will drag you out. Then you swim back in but then the next wave comes in and drags you out again. So you swim back. Repeat this until you are so knackered that you drown. It happens nearly every day in Phuket.  Nearly happened to me a few years ago, thinking it was fun to play in the big waves. Did get in a bad situation, but luckily I am a good strong swimmer and just got back to where I could stand up.  The older tourists will have no chance.  i believe that all beaches should be closed for swimming in rough weather.  Its not a problem to go and swim in a hotel pool. If yours doesnt have one the others only charge about 100 baht to use theirs.

Have those guys really have nothing better to do ???  Pathetic way to work out that fag ends are litter

If you look at the video you will see other bikes on the inside lane going slowly. The kids on their bike were going way too fast. However the truck did do a very wide turn and probably didnt look left, both at fault

Have just seen the film and Cambodia is mentioned as a hideout but there are no shots of Cambodian territory at all.  Stupid decision

No problem, my wife can still legally buy a gun. Foreigners can still easily buy a stolen gun, so the new rule will change nothing, except on paper.

Are they for WW3 or for the election ?

And a lot more......many reports out now that drones are now the big threat to watch out for in the battle against the terrosists. Bombs being dropped from above in stadia where big events are happening ....like football matches and all sports....any place where a lot of people are gathered....it's too horrible to contemplate the possibilities.

PS......and somebody on here says...."what a joke"....All I can say is.......protect us all....not so much from the bombers, but from the people who can think of nothing othet than that to say?

A few years ago aa American student attached a gun to a quadcopter and a servo operated the trigger. It was a seriously lethal weapon and easy to build

Presume all the Thai guys hanging around the beach can smoke ? Thais are the ones that leave the litter on the beach, not tourists.  However tourists are rich and easy prey aren't they ???????

Its a very rare situation to recover ALL the money after so many days. Makes it seem like an insurance scam.  If I had that amount of money I would have spread it around very quick so some of it would never get found.

No mention of the Human Trafficking problem or the slaves on fishing boats that supply USA with seafood.  What did Thailand do a few years ago with Rohingya refugees who landed on the coast ?  Do you remember ?  They were made to lay on the hot sand for hours with no water or food and then pushed back out to sea with rice and water.  yeah, sure, Thailand cares now !  

They don't have a work permit !!   So why should anyone else bother getting one to do business ?

He doesn't really know. He will just spout out some crap that cant be proved unless Yingluck confirms it .  Just wanting attention again cos he has nothing to say worth hearing

So what is actually wrong ? The heads are placed high and aren't covered with anything. So what is the offense ?  It is not mentioned, only that Thai people say it is wrong cos someone told them it was. Thats there way of learning everything. "It must be so because someone told me it is"

She is really taking the p**s out of the Police and Government by remaining silent ! A clever move. Not Thai like to keep quiet but its working brilliantly.

They always get these finds when they act on tip offs.   Dont think they ever find them with their own investigative and security skills.

A ton of plastic bottles 

 

Sounds like hog heaven for those handcart pushing trash sifters.

 

Maybe city hall just needs to bus in a few dozen of them

 

The prisons have a huge amount of free labour.  Get a bunch of trustees to clear it up and give to the trash (Re-cyclers)  collectors and they can cash it in. Perfect solution but too easy for the Thai authorities, and no money for them so it wont happen.

I don't think I've ever paid double with Thai and I fly them exclusively. 

We Fly Thai from Perth and it is over $150 cheaper than 10 years ago

Why would you want to pay more by using an Amex card instead of cash. Or do you like showing off your expensive piece of plastic ?
