My employment details on uk spouse visa app
Not UK immigration related, but oftentimes when completing immigration forms, the queries ought to be answered from the perspective of the person seeking immigration, not the person (even if the spouse) assisting with completing the form.

Rayong company sends new employees packing with a one-day notice
The FED never made such a statement. Only investors (err, wagerers).

Thai road safety groups challenge extended bar hours over drink-driving fears
You missed the point. Drunk driving should be penalized with incarceration; not slaps on the wrist. There should not be an in-between ground. If the perp has 0.08+% alcohol reading, then off to the irons. I don't care if Thai or (fat) farlang. I like to drink (perhaps too much). But I am not stupid; I do not drive to a watering-hole.

How come English speakers are incomprehensible to others?
Yeah, you were schooled by a narrow-minded teacher(s), and you yourself have not ventured outside a small circle when you were raised. I do not fault you. But hopefully I have answered your question, err, query.

Invite more Chinese tourists. They have the vaccine.

Biker’s road rage terrorising Bangkok family evokes societal concerns
I have two daughters, and more cherished (perhaps?) is my SUV. If some punk(s) came at me in a threatening manner with their motorbikes, I would probably blow it off. But if the harassment continued, then I would honk my vehicle's horn. If more harassment continued, then I would practice making pancakes. A 3500 lbs vehicle will always win against a 500 lbs (or less) vehicle. A word to the youth... don't test me!

Reckless Youth Throw Stones at Train Passengers, Urging Authorities to Take Action to Protect Passengers
That's sort of what I implied. Indoctrination on how to operate a turret gun.

See how useless your Thai bank is when you go and try to register for the facial scan rule.
I did something similar with Wise. I wanted to transfer a mere $100 from my US account to my Bangkok Bank account (it was my first transfer, and I am 'poor'). I had to scan my US passport using my iPhone. No big deal. Someday, I will do the same, but for the 400+K Baht transfer to solidify my retirement in LOS with my Thai wife.

Reckless Youth Throw Stones at Train Passengers, Urging Authorities to Take Action to Protect Passengers
Maybe gun turrets should be mounted on the train cars. Stones today, molatav cocktails tomorrow? Seriously, why would anyone throw stones at a passing train? Figure out the motive.

Pattaya Motorbike Taxi Driver Returns Lost Bag Containing Nearly 100,000 Baht to Foreigner
I can't find the emoji... but a facepalm is what I wanted. The bloke is carrying US dollars, thus appearing to represent the USA. Sigh.

How much sleep should an 8 to 9 yr old thai child get per night?
Bedtime at 9pm seems reasonable, but wake-up time, in your child's case, should be 6am. I have a teenage daughter that has a similar school schedule. I allow her to dictate the time she goes to sleep, but wake-up time is what it is... 6am. She has to be at school at 7:20. [We live 0.5 miles from school; she could walk, but as a courtesy, I drive her.] Next year, she will start at 8:20. She will be in the 11th grade (US). Hot as hell in the summer, and freezing cold in the winter. P.S. She typically walks home, regardless of the weather. We happen to live in a safe area. P.S.S. You did not mention your daughter's age. Mine will be 16. The school system in my area has a tiered schedule for school: High School - 7:20 am Middle School - 8:20 am Elementary School - 9:30 am High school kids are let out at 2:15 pm; the other schools are also let out 7 hours after their respective start time.

Thaipocrisy: United States deny meddling in Thailand political affairs
I guess it is our way of saying "Mai pen rai" (sorry if my transliteration is incorrect)... but I'm trying to convey is... whatever. I am happy as the next person, minding my own thoughts and on goings.

Bangkok municipal pupils can wear hair styles and clothes of their choice
I have to admit I have never seen a Thai youth (or even an adult) with a mullet.

Thaipocrisy: United States deny meddling in Thailand political affairs
The politics in Thailand have never, not once, bothered or affected me. I support the Thai people... not their government.
