I'm reading it as the women was basically run off the road by a pursing car. Tragic.

Police have taken the Hong Kong man into custody for a breathalyser test to determine his blood alcohol content

I wonder how this went? Maybe more than a puff involved?

The aim of this program is to shield students from various potential social risks around the time they leave and return home.

What does this mean - various potential social risks!?

Maybe blindfolding the kids on the school bus?

The driver said she then informed passengers that the transport fee from the application was 326 baht, and they had to pay an additional toll fee.

Blame the app maybe, but ultimately a lack of transparency of the fare was the issue.

Sounds like Tassapon should have been consulted before the PM unveiled his plans.

In related news, a 65 year old Thai woman lost 3 million baht in a romance scam after engaging in a month-long online conversation with a scammer she met on a Facebook dating group.

This sounds like a slightly more interesting story.

Is it even legal to have a lion?

A squatter with a safety vest, who is an ACDC fan, and probably pretty good with a hoola-hoop.

Had a similar experience to those other posts. Air Asia has no customer service effectively - and the real people hiding behind their robots are equally useless. They don't care.

The only rationale of the 2 - 5pm ban seems to be kids are buying it during these times. Never really understood that - they can just wait to go out at 5pm like the rest of us. If shopkeepers/7-11 staff etc had the confrontation skills to request ID from minors and refuse sales appropriately, and, if penalties were applied to those selling it to minors - this ban wouldn't be required. This is the culture that exists in the west, but is not something culturally easy for Thais so it seems. Hence these peculiar rules apply.

I wonder how much the debt is? How much is it worth stabbing yourself in the stomach for?

Amazing what rain can do.

I hate it when I get tricked into getting a <deleted>.

Any airline that doesn't have a phone number, email address or a real customer service people to help you when you have

an issue and only a BOT to address your queries, is an airline i will never fly again with no matter how cheap they're and 

AirAsia is one of them...

Yep, left me and my young family stranded in KL and basically couldn't give a f##! Was my go-to airlines, now a very very last option.

In the Netherlands when I was living there we had Amsterdam and Rotterdam Red Light districts and Coffee(Weed )shops and Sex/Toy shops Everywhere.

That's were the Tourists  went .

So Figure It's an Advertisement

Maybe there will be direct flights from Germany to Pattaya soon - just to uptake the demand.

God help us, don't tell me they they are bringing their cars.

The AQI is starting to creep up as farmers start burning off their rice stubs and the rain that clears the air has ceased. AQI up to 141 already in some parts. At least mushroom season is months away and the forest fires haven't been lit yet.

Can the consent letter be used repeatedly or each time child goes abroad, need a new one ? Thanks.

Sorry, can't answer your question but probably a new one would be a good idea.  I wasn't asked for anything at all as it turned out. 

If the refunds are going into a bank account, surely the culprits would be easy to track down? It's the 'insignificant' amounts involved that make it easier for police to issue a warning to restaurants rather than investigate further.
