Ever tried Thai food? Or is that not "quality" enough for you? Just curious...

Yeah... THAT will turn things around.

Surprise... kids don't read and write very good already before the Covid, and now with 1 year no lessons it wold not improve.. The education ministry should ban 50 kids classes as some schoola have mixed classes. How can you prperly teach kids if you don't have a minute a kid in a lesson?
In other words, "on-site" education never worked very well either. Not that the Education Commission would admit to this...

former Deputy National Police Chief Wirachai Songmetta one of the kingdom’s most well known and respected police officers who is also one of the richest men in the country.
Allow me to interpret that for you:
1) He is one of the wealthiest men in the country BECAUSE he (was) a deputy national police chief.
2) He is only so well respected BECAUSE he is one of the wealthiest men in this country.
3) If he had been a low-ranking policeman throughout his entire career, he would now NEITHER be one of the wealthiest men in the country NOR be well respected.

The only way booze is going to prevent you from catching Covid is if you buy an appropriately large glass jar and fill it up to the rim with your favorite tipple. You then pickle yourself in it, making sure that you stay submerged permanently. Oh, and please ask someone to screw on the lid!

Not to worry.
TAT and the Tourism Ministry assured us all very recently that soon 10 million visitors from the Middle East will be pouring in thanks to the re-establishment of diplomatic relations with Saudi-Arabia (a country of 35 million, of which only 12 million are actually locals).
And then there still is the Thailand-India travel bubble that is going to bring in tens of millions more.
So... with these wonderful prospects, who cares about a measly 40,000 Russians and whether they stay or leave?

Which explains why he is driving an "absolutely non-clean" fossil fuel-guzzling Porsche. Ah, the hypocrisy!

It's because Germany has very strict child protection laws.

Wife: "Oh, look at that! Thailand gives out 10-year visas for a mere $30,000..."
Husband: "Wow, that sounds like a great deal!
Wife: "Wait a minute... the small print also says that you're required to invest a minimum $1 million in order to qualify."
Husband: "Really? Hm.... let's instead go get citizenship in Dominica or St. Kitts and Nevis for only a $250,000 investment. No more visas needed at all. AND it's much closer to home,. AND they all speak English there, too."

He said that Thai ganja was highly regarded comparing it with Khao Horm Mali (Jasmine Rice) for its tourism pulling power.
This statement alone already proves that Chartchai Rotrungrangsri without a shred of doubt is delusional and far removed from reality.
I have never ever (ever!!!) heard of a single tourist who visited Thailand solely because of its jasmine rice.
And the ludicrous assessment that "9 out of 10 tourists" are going to try ganja... does that mean that Thailand basically banks on the arrival of millions and millions of stoners that are going to fall over one another in heaps as they storm airports worldwide? How about the families with underage children, the millionaires? Junkies, all of them?

When will TAT finally recognize the fact that it is Thailand's onerous entry requirements that keep the bulk of potential visitors away?
TAT can pull as many fantasy figures from its hat as they want, but that will not do anything to help bring in foreign tourists in droves.
Just last week TAT projected "10 million visitors from the Middle East" in 2022 in a ridiculously enthusiastic announcement just because the country had re-established relations with Saudi-Arabia. Either you've got to be really detached from reality or have a child-like mind (or both) if you truly believe that the mere re-establishment of relations will now suddenly cause every other Saudi national to immediately jump on a plane to Bangkok.
Just get a grip on it, TAT, and stop annoying everybody with your endless recital of wishful arrival figures as if they were some kind of magical mantra.

As unjust and cruel Russia's malicious attack on Ukraine is and as much as the world community is entirely right in condemning Russia for its despicable action, please let's not forget to also apply the same yardstick next time the United States of America unilaterally decide that they must "liberate" some foreign nation.
Remember Haiti, Grenada, Somalia, Iraq.
What's good for the goose should also be good for the gander.

The Thai Government wants to play Jelly Fish while the most "neutral" country in the world (Switzerland) has taken a firm stance against this war?
I never realized what invertebrates they were. ????
The truly despicably pathetic thing is:
If Russia wins and assimilates Ukraine, Thailand will proudly proclaim that it has "always been with Russia".
Yet if Ukraine against all odds should survive this and Russia is being shunned by the world community, Thailand will proclaim that "in principle we always supported the cause of Ukraine's independence".

While Don takes a "neutral stance", Thailand's ambassador to the UN yesterday voted "yes" in favor of a resolution to condemn Russia's attack on Ukraine. Go figure.
When one day Thailand's big bosom buddy from the north decides they need to expand into Southeast Asia in what they (just like Russia) may perhaps cynically term as a "defensive attack", I hope that the rest of the world likewise will maintain a "neutral stance".

He is lowering unemployment.
He is growing the economy.
He is doing everything in his power to open the country up again, and increase tourism revenue.
He is increasing exports.
He is abiding by all of the terms of the ASEAN charters he signed, and allowing the duty free importation of all beer throughout ASEAN. Bintang, Beer Lao, Bia Saigon, Bia Huda, Bia Ha Noi, Dagon, Saigon Special, 333, are on all of the supermarket shelves as we speak. We are not longer subject to the very low quality local beers, as promised in the recent ASEAN charter, that Thailand agreed to and signed.
He is making visa policy easy, simple and streamlined, and all tourists nad expats are very happy about that. He is working on the attitudes of government workers, and making sure they are open and friendly to both tourists, and ex-pats.
He is improving traffic and public safety.
He is working day and night to eliminate the air quality issues, that have become a catastrophe for the nation. Corruption is being eliminated, and innocent fall guys are no longer getting charged for murder, and being put to death. The taxi mafia on Samui and Phuket have been eliminated, and tourists can now get a taxi at a fair price. They are also adding multiple options of cheap public transportation on the Southern islands.
Life is better for all now that this great man is demonstrating his genius and vision on a daily basis. All he cares about is the welfare of his own people, and the happiness of both tourists and the ex-pat community. He contemplates this day and night.You forgot that he also can turn water into lao khao with a snip of his fingers and can predict lottery numbers when you give him a good rubbing down.

Hi guys. I am writing a novel about people who want to write a novel about ladyboys who are in long-term relationships with foreign men in Thailand because they are convinced the world is desperately waiting for yet another volume of that sort. For my book, I'd like to interview a couple of authors who have taken on that subject. If you happen to know anyone, please drop me a short line here. Thanks.

He is fighting an impossible battle. Thai Bev and Boonrawd are not going to simply give in. They have more than enough 1,000-baht bills up their sleeves to ensure that the market continues to be theirs - and theirs only.

Say goodbye to Big Carl as Carl’s Jr leaves Thailand by the end of March
in Thailand News Headlines
Posted
I accept that. I love a substantial and tasty burger from time to time and Carl's Jr.'s were goood. However, what irked me in the original posters comment was his notion that Pattaya didn't have enough quality food around, making it sound like he exclusively lived on burgers and other western fast food fare.
