It's going to be interesting to see how they enforce this.

Why does a temple want to keep bears anyway?

Exactely.

Well done coppers. Now keep going and catch all the other thugs exploiting animals.

Dirty ol man, Wolfgang.

Been in plenty of thai restaurants etc, where the first thing that greets you is a member of staff with a finger stuck up their nose, u turn bye!!

The words that kept me here for over 3 decades: thank god they are not as good as us.

No manners, the chinese.

The Beluga Sturgeon is the largest freshwater fish in the world by a long way and the freshwater stingray in Thailand is third on the list.

A lot of people come to Thailand to specifically target this fish and Jeremy Wade on "River Monsters" managed to catch some.

The Giant Mekong Catfish is stocked in many Thai fishing ponds even up here in Isaan but is certainly endangered in the wild.

Thanks for the link. Very interesting.

Snakes ?

...........Chaiyathat said the park would have sign translated into Chinese as well.........

No sh1t, Sherlock!!

Imagine all those take the kids to school in a car.

Another idiot. Let him learn the hard way.

Wear helmets all you.

Wow, can you imagine the howls of protest if someone had to take a test in talking and writing in the Thai language in Bangkok to qualify for a Thai marriage visa?

The german embassy seems trying to discourage thais from applying for a visa. If we had to do this kind of test, there would be a lot less farang living here.

RIP

What if the person taking photo is just a family member and is not a professional? Is this illegal?

I am Austrian, can give Private German lessons everywhere if all my expenses are paid.

By the way - "My wife, for some inexplicable reason, wants to learn German."

You legally married?

One reason to learn German is to qualify for a Marriage Visa for Germany-Austria,

to get that, you have to make first a test in talking and writing in German language.

For a german 'longstay' visa, the language test has to be taken at Goethe Institute only. This is very inconvenient as they are in BKK.

so we had to wait till 2015 to have someting like this come up in thailand that is full of tourists.

now waiting for a decent ambulance system instead of those stupid volunteers protectung coming up in ... 2120 ( FARANG YEAR NA!!)

So they sure can "speak english" ?? Or is it like the receptions in the malls/hospitals where they also can "spea engrit"

Feel sorry for the man, but I'm not surprised.

Safety First is a priority in Thailand

Think you meant to say Safety first is not a priority in Thailand. Personal safety is just not in the thinking.

True it is.

They seem to have missed the other two ghosts at the right of the photo.

A ghost trio.

Wait till they understand each other's swearing LOL

After centuries of encroaching..........now serious action is taken. A little late, isn't it.
