Chip Butty must be out of touch with reality.

Srettha = puppet on a string.

Indeed, Social behavior is rapidly in decline as witnessed by Airline passenger behavior horror stories. Who/What's to blame ?

It seems like you need to be either Russian or Chinese to feel welcome in LOS.

Thailand should have denied permission and handed these Tatmadaw thugs over to the UN or the INCJ. But....Thailand just can't seem to do the Right Thing when it comes to Democracy. Didn't Thaksin recently go see Hun Sen ?

For this story, Anutin is 100% correct. All these Visa Free schemes for China and Russia are coming back to bite Thailand in the fanny.

Let's see....Casinos YES - Cannabis No. Makes total sense , doesn't it ? !!

"Guilty By Association " says one reader. WTF. Let the man have his day in Court and have the charges against him proven.

I ALWAYS advise friends coming to see me from abroad to NEVER get in a tuk tuk in Bangkok. I have been scammed and others have been scammed. In addition, NEVER listen to touts around Wat Phra Kaeow who try to convince you the Temple of the Emerald Buddha is Closed, and to take a tour with Them instead.

What will those profits be AFTER PTT has replaced ALL of the 7/11's with their own Jiffy Stores.

What farce !!! This should have done 20 years ago.

The Famous Jack Nicholson quote comes to mind _ Thais Can't HANDLE the Truth !

Let's keep the bars open 24/7 so more louts like this one can "enjoy" themselves.

Let's see...NO alcohol between 7 am to 11 am & 2:pm to 5:pm. Otherwise, drink your livers out till 4 : am. Quality tourists ? Hardly. Big spenders ? I think not.

My son is majoring in English at a University here in Chiang Mai. The teacher will NOT let him see his test results to see which answers he may have gotten wrong. She only gives the students their grade. HOW is one supposed to learn from their mistakes this way ?

With Russia having the World's 2nd largest mafia , it's no surprise they are finding lots of opportunity in the Thailand Russian Community.

In another thread this morning, it stated that Chinese Airlines have cut their flights to Thailand due to lack of passengers.

What does this say about the Thai police force ? As for China - send in the spies.

China - You want to be my friend ? Then Do what I say !!

The writing was on the wall when Srettha's first act upon becoming PM was to meet with Xi Jinping - and shortly thereafter inviting Butcher Putin to visit Thailand. He has lost any credibility he pretended he had.

With PM Srettha applauding the 24 hour Chiang Mai Airport operating hours, the myopic PM fails to realize that Burning Season will start soon and the runways will become invisible. That and the arriving passengers will see all the pollution while on descent and take the next flight out.

Eric Loh shows he'd sell his soul for a few tourist dollars - most of which goes to corrupt officials here. Inviting a World Class Psycho, Putin , one who poisons his opponents and mass murders men, women and children across the border in Ukraine, shows the shallow soul of Srettha. He won't be doing Thailand any favors with his incompetent governing.

I would LOVE to see Every Country in the World charge Thai citizens triple prices at museums and National Parks like Thais do to foreigners here. What's good for the goose is good for the gander, as they say.

The gentleman best forget this woman and her family. The dowry is just the beginning. He will be paying for every little " emergency " for the rest of his life. The fact that the fiance is fine with this says it all.

The same is true in Pattaya these days except the foreigners are Indian. Tens of thousands are there, with their own clubs and massage parlors. TAT might want to take these things into account when offering super special promotions to a select few countries.
