Former senator proposes ways to cut energy prices
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
How about promoting energy conservation as opposed to more generation? Major savings could be had if there were regulations regarding how cold air conditioning can be. Malls, offices, theaters: the temp is so low one needs a jacket or blanket. I can only take 15-20 minutes in some malls... Maybe 15 yrs ago I read a study regarding energy savings, and the numbers were huge. Sorry I don't have it anymore to share.... -

Innocent man freed after 80 days due to mistaken identity in Thai drug case
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Don't the moronic police, etc take fingerprints, mug shots, etc? Would not be that difficult to compare I know this isn't the west, but seems he is owed compensation for the 80 days he couldn't work (probably fired from his job), emotional stress on him and family (how could they afford rent/food/etc), and sanctions on the idiots who put him in jail -

Deadly Altercation Erupts Among Friends Over 'Hitler' Drawing
Emdog replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Jeez... does the author not know the word 'swastika'? Hitler symbol? could be stylized SS for all we know. "The argument began when Set playfully drew a 'Hitler' symbol on Saul's head,..." Would not have happened if youths were Thai and not Filipino American: Thais are stupendously ignorant regarding Hitler, WW2, etc. Remember when students included Hitler in super heroes mural? -

TCC Outlines 3-Point Revival Plan for Thai Economy
Emdog replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The number one way to accelerate economy is to rid Thailand of corruption (fat chance, right?). But all the kickbacks, payoffs and bribes are like an excise tax, except that the money does not help with infrastructure, services, etc etc.. Okay, slight "trickle down" as villas etc built from ill gotten gains, and I suppose mia nois spending helps a bit -
