'tropical fish market', or as it's more commonly known, the 'wet market'. 

The wet market in Chatujak is very clean The Thais have always paid close attention to it In China they simple do not care No cleaning NOTHING

I do not get it Other countries answering the virus closed down early in the week or last week What took Thailand so long?Oh yes The government

Yes it should be cancelled Why risk the virus from spreading Perfect breeding ground  Close  contact and lots of water

As they are allowed to transit through the country, why not let them dock here in the first place?

Thai thinking "illogical"

 And the Government will go back to a status quo because the problem for now is abated. The government has not backbone to solve this problem They will just pass it on year after year SO SAD

I am reading this story and it seems the government is blaming the private sector for the number or tourists coming.

The Thai baht plays little if anything on a travelers decision if it is within a 10% range The real reason is the smog No one

wants to go to a smog filled venue. Its time the government took strong action against smog by passing some serious legislation with regard to this issue. Otherwise the cleaner venues will win out big time Yes environment is a big issue with travelers 

 After all if they can ban plastic bags so fast then Smog should not be a real issue because it results in sickness and lost

productivity

Why don't you set up a panel to see how pollution can be improved. I just had a friend who said he was going to come to Bangkok I told him not to bother because the pollution is bad Maybe he will come someone next year and maybe not

Bottom line is this pollution is hurting tourism and people breathing Without clean air productivity drops

Sounds like a very fast confession by this ruthless killer only ever seams possible here ????

Ya well then took him to a "safe house" Somewhat of an oximoron

There was a dealer that just offered me 175,000 for my vios I listed here.

I am considering their offer

In the meantime if there is someone out there who is willing to go

176,000 Then I will sell it for that

Just text me

Average 5000km per year !! Wow

Ya not may km per year Runs the same as new

I want to sell my Vios I bought it new so know its history Never in an accident Good servicing

Low Km 56,000 mostly highway miles

I just don't drive much anymore so It just sits there

Price is 199,000

I have checked around This price is very very good for the km

Good condition

Interior is good Recovered seats 3 years ago with leather

New tires battery & alternator  White automatic J model 

Well I can with certainty say it was not a grouper that bit him. Other than a crazed lamprey  it must have been a shark

I have a great idea Start banning Diesel engines. Tell automakers first they cannot sell anymore diesel cars. Give the trucking industry 5 years to come up with a solution and implement it Tell the private sector they have 5 years to switch over to petrol or electric or face  ban within city limits

Here we go; and so it starts. How can any counter be illegal when the country was illegally taken? Suggest holding up middle finger instead of the three.

The smart thing for the Police to do is issue a written warning to the leaders that then need to be notified of a protest before it takes place That is not unreasonable If you charge the leaders you are only going to create more unrest and further protests

True.  Most insurance only cover emergencies and this is clearly a preexisting condition.   Sucks but true.

Best bet is to get insurance from your own country that has International coverage.  Cigna and Aetna are good in Thailand.
