20-30 years, dressed in black shirts and long black pants,

You mean, like waiters

Getting Thailands tourists industry moving again.

So why are the mug shot photos blurred? I would think the police want information like, "have you seen these people?" So the point of hiding their identity is?

Possible waiting to tell family, but if they have their names I would guess that has already been done.

Wouldn't it have been nice if the PM had wanted better entry experience at immigration prior to Covid. Once spent 2.5 hours getting through passport control at BKK.

Does that include hand sanitizers

I have read this, but in common for all these proposals in the past, has it been cancelled yet? Normally cancelled by the time I read them.

Glad to see one of the Five R's is not racism and so they may in deed do away with the double pricing for Frangs.

R for Really fast immigration checks at BKK would also be a good idea.

"Prime Minister Boris Johnson's fiancée Carrie Symonds."

I think the clue is Boris's fiancée, and a grip on reality you expect from Briton Trump.

Baccarat?

This 2.5% was due to Chinese new Year moving into January this year (Jan 25 2020), and is smaller bump, because of that, than it should be.

Watch how the drop in February will be blamed on CNY not being in February this year. (Feb 5 2019)

Who took the Photo?

I doubt the taxi driver did, so who else was there?

Is somebody keeping track of all these Falang "suicides?"

Is a new year. Start a tally for 2015

Wouldn't that be convenient

[clinical mode off]

Is nakedly even a word?

Police are looking for anyone but a Thai for this murder.

So what does happen when you send your old passport off to be renewed? No passport for a month or more. 60K in fines?

Another great way to shake down tourists.

Murderer and colleague to be prosecuted tomorrow

Murderer of 13-year-old Thai girl to be prosecuted tomorrow

Small journalistic point here. If the trial is tomorrow then these headlines show pre-judgement. He may have pleaded guilty and staged a reenactment of the crime, but to describe him as the murderer is re-leaving everybody of the need for a trial. Heaven knows there is little chance of the defense claiming that there cannot be a fair trial due to press comment on Thai Visa, but it really should be kept in mind.

And Amnesty International's view of Thailand is?

This is the second call for the death penalty for other than murder in a week.

Think this is MAINLAND Chinese. We here in Hong Kong cannot stand them either.

Can take the Chinese mainlander out of the village, but cannot take the village out of the Chinese mainlander.
