A PROMINENT ACADEMIC has reminded all MPs of the basic principle that they all have been elected as representatives of the people and not the powers that be who might possibly have the highly questionable electoral system retwisted.

This is what many people have been saying for a long time only the MP's are not listening and neither is the PM .........................LOL

The Nigerian man, who was confirmed to be Thailand’s first and so far only monkeypox case, may have contracted the virus in the country, said Dr. Wasun Chantratita, chief of the Centre for Medical Genomics at Ramathibodi Hospital.

It appears to me from this information he probably did catch it in Thailand therefore it stands to reason he is Not the only case of monkeypox in Thailand - QED

Phuket – Fruit vendors at the monkey viewpoint at Koh Siray say less tourists and locals have visited and bought fruits for monkeys and the vendors put the blame on monkeypox, even though it isn’t monkeys responsible for the current spread of the disease globally.

This is what you get when you try to educate the population using scare tactics ...........................LOL

Let's choose:

 

forget studies.    not educated, no skills, workplace destroyed, all companies can only hire complete idiots, world crumbles.    

 

fight.   people die.

 

neither is good.   Kids in HS can try weed, but if they become a pot head they will be in for a shock when reality hits.   kids that fight.....never know, but better odds than a druggie. 

Interesting start to your comment "Let's Choose" I would imagine a very high percentage of people have at some point tried some form of drugs & alcohol, but everyone who tries either do not become addicts to either drugs or alcohol, and progress to lead normal lives - The Choice in life is there as are life's many possible pitfalls so choose wisely.

focusing primarily on dilapidated footpaths, billboards (Such as old and hazardous ones that became dilapidated during the Covid19 lockdowns),

On the few roads or streets that do have footpaths most are unusable due to vendors encroaching onto the footpaths , alternatively sign posts or street lamps positioned in the most inappropriate places preventing full use of the footpath, one does have to feel sorry for any families coming here with small children who require a pushchair.

Few people in Thailand don't believe in spirits or the afterlife so it comes as no surprise that a Facebook post about ghosts and spirits is being well received.

I think this should read Few Thai's don't believe in spirits etc. - Most others are better educated..............LOL
