At last, Thai is making a profit ..............LOL

Why is there no fogging campaign during this period, in the Middle East and many other countries where mozzies are problematic the governments are soon out with the fogging blowers as soon as the first infections are realised, after all Thailand keeps boasting it is a "World Class" destination ..............LOL

The thing I find amazing in Thailand it the various embassies are not lifting a finger to help, this situation and the way the Thai government is treating everyone must have been reported in every country in the world, I can but hope they are saving this information for a rainy day as it really is scandalous how the Thai government are treating people who have made investments in good faith only to defecated on by this none elected government

Just to amuse and educate yourself,go spend some time where these kind of barriers are installed

and count how many people (both cars and motorbikes)are going around them.

These are installed for a good reason but the safety aspect of them is nearly out weight by the danger they create.

Absolutely nothing will work other than full gate crossings, these half road barriers will never work here as it gives them a way to go around, only total road blockage will work .......!!!

Varangkana said the non-flight businesses – catering, repair and cargo services – have adjusted their strategies in order to raise revenue.

Or to put it in other words "Thai have gone into the catering business as they can't organise flights" ....LOL

The "Flex One" scheme will offer 5 to 20-year visas to foreigners who buy properties worth at least Bt10 million. The cards, worth Bt500,000 to Bt2 million, will be purchased by property developers and then passed on to foreign clients.

Enough is enough, it's about time all the government department leaders sat down and talked to each other,  (If they can find a room big enough) the only thing they appear capable of doing is creating confusion and hysterior among the population. The amount of uncertainty regarding stability of this country must be at an all time high, obviously the government have never heard of the saying "Too many cooks spoil the broth" there are so many stories running at the moment nobody is taking them seriously, they make these ridiculous statements one day and the next frighten people away by saying "Ah but you can't stay in your new home until you jump through these additional hoops that we have just thought up, going to the dogs is nothing in it .........!!!! 

It is good that they have been imprisoned but I would not have reduced their sentences, a clear message needs to be sent that injuring a professional health worker especially a doctor will carry a heavy sentence.......!!!

A well known politician who they did not name appears to have offered assistance.

I don't think it is too difficult to deduce who this is, there is quite an elite Thai gathering in the middle east these days ....LOL

I don't think it has anything to do with poor eyesight, but rather with motorists (and pedestrians!) simply not paying attention when negotiating traffic.

 

Trains in this country are not exactly bullet trains approaching at 300kph, are they? Passenger trains travel at a maximum speed of 70kph, while freight trains are usually considerably slower. If you actually pay attention you can see them coming - and it still takes them a minute or so before they actually reach the actual crossing. But if you're not looking...

Absolutely correct, and the government still think Thailand is a "World Class" destination - Can't wait for them to get the high speed trains then they can really go for it ...................LOL

I would really like to reply to this but would probably be banned for life ......!!!

A panel will be established to investigate the breach of duty, which could result in a salary cut, demotion or dismissal.
