So what's the point of including it in the article then? It's just smeering the guy's name more for no reason. (No, I don't condone his behaviour or think hes' an angel)

There was supposed to be a race in 2015, but that never happened due to legislation banning street racing in Bangkok (was never going to anyway, the whole "plan" was wishful thinking from the start) The dream: https://www.eurosport.com/formula-1/thailand-now-aiming-for-f1-race-in-2015_sto3539527/story.shtml The reality: http://en.espn.co.uk/f1/motorsport/story/109939.html

Who Is Really in Charge In Thailand? Voldemort 🤫

Can think of many countries where the PM or president has time to care about or comment on entertainment deals regarding pop stars 🤪

Indeed. He's worried about then children, but they've been smoking weed (and meth) forever and will continue to do so. They're not the ones entering the tourist weed shops and spending 300 - 1000 for a gram. The tourists are - that's where the 1.2 Billion is coming from since it's the legal and reported (and taxed) part of weed in the country. Are they really going to cut 40 Billi9n THB from the economy? Madness

No, not only that. The next paragraph that you quote clearly states that she was in Thailand for 13 days (contrary to her claim). So it's fabricated.

I'll save everyone the trouble. This thread will be posts along the lines of: 1) This rule is stupid. 2) If you think this rule is stupid, then you're an alcoholic 3) Thailand is technically not a Buddhist country by law, why not have bams for other religious holodays? 4) You can still drink, just not buy. Again, stupid rule. 5) Real religious people won't drink anyway. 6) Stock up in advance. 7) My local mom 'n pop still sells. 😎Tourists will be pissed (angry or drunk or both?) 9) Don' t forget, you're an alcoholic for questioning this rule. 10) This rule is stupid, but TIT.

This country and stupid laws. Gambling Is illegal (except for horse racing and the lottery). Now I learn that there is a "Class B" of gambling which is legal for 20 year olds and over to participate in, but then also learn that snooker was classified as such an activity, which is ridiculous. Where is the gamble? The fact that your ball might not go in the hole? So is golf also Class B gambling??

Yep, they're skimming everywhere. Down south, I've seen the lines of farm workers doing their 90 day reporting. However, each of them are also charged a service fee of 100 Baht. Last time I was in, I saw them take about 5,000 Baht for this service in about 30 minutes. I wonder how many workers are charged this fee monthly?

It might be where you are - sure, the Bangkok crowd aren't wearing them to the mall but in my family's hometown they're seen everwhere and the shops that sell them aren't targeting foreigners. They're not that "new" either. My father-in-law is nearly 80 and very conservative "old school" Thai. He's been wearing them around the house for years (as long as I've known him. They're comfortable.

They're the most comfortable long trousers/pants I own. I've never cared too much if they "look good" - they're just extremely comfortable in the heat.

They better be careful. Isn't amending laws tantamount to treason these days according to the constitutional court?

This article is almost as convoluted as the last name of its author. ⚕️

Absolute garbage from Tulsatith Tabtim. It starts with this nonsense: "No outsider can really tell who is right and who is wrong." and gets worse from there. Do yourself a favour and don't click on the link to the original (very long) article by the pseudo-intelectual Tulsatith.

They were definitely NOT going past Sydney on the way:

Indeed. It's unfortunately unfolding as I prediced last week: "Cleared of this, which shows the court to be neutral . This sets it up nicely for a party dissolution next week which then surely wouldn't be political because the court is "neutral". " Wish I had been wrong.

Struggling to sell your videos?

Alleged? So it hasn't been proven that it happened? WTF

Stupid headline. He didn't "praise" anything. He basically alluded to the fact that Thailands was "becoming" more democratic which is a good thing in his opinion.

Cleared of this, which shows the court to be neutral . This sets it up nicely for a party dissolution next week which then surely wouldn't be political because the court is "neutral".

"The government plans to prohibit the sale of cannabis buds for smoking... ' So shops will just sell the same buds but the signs on the counter will say "For Tea"

Didn't know PM2.5 particles could read.

"It would imply that our legal system can be manipulated by those in power to serve political ends, thereby undermining the very foundation of our democracy." Nothing needs to be implied, the system is and always has been manipulate by those in power and continues to undermine democracy. Has this journalist been living under a rock??

So the nightclub was flouting existing regualtions. What's the point of creating more regulations then? Of course, the core of the problem is enforcement (the RTP) - more regulations won't fix that.

It's neither and both at the same time - quantum level stuff, like Schrödinger's cat. Us mere mortals aren't smart enough to understand.
