Not surprising considering the amount of 7-11 and Family Mart stores
where many people do their shopping and where there is not one piece of healthy food, everything processed.
ask a Thai kid what their favourite food is and many will reply KFC.
Its rhe 21st century, the century of the fat and obese

I hate dual pricing but I can accept to pay more in nature parks so Thais can enjoy their own country for a cheaper price then we do. Its their national heritage. I can't accept it for normal companies and businesses.
Oh so shut up. You want to pay more so the locals can enjoy their own country?
I didn’t realize there were still so people Who looked down on the ‘poor local peasants ‘

The main problem is that children are available for foreign paedophiles, but unfortunately no one will go after the local Thais who are providing the children.
That won’t make the headlines, ‘Foreign Paedophiles in Pattaya’ that’s a headline ‘Thai pimp arrested’ that won’t make the inner pages.
And sorry for being so cynical, but there is money to be made out of foreigners: several hundred thousand Baht and you can go free, how much will a Thai pimp have on him, couple of hundred Baht? not really worth the police wasting their time!

poor boy .... this would be horrifying for him.
The school was trying to cover up what actually happened.
The perpetrators must be punished fully and possibly expelled from the school and the director should be punished also.
The poor boy will have burn scares for life.
Listen to yourself, nothing will happen. You are obviously very new to Thailand and don't know how things work here. If teachers get away with beating a child, if teachers get moved to the next district for having sex with a student, what to you honestly think will happen in this case?

Don't know why these stories are reported, it doesn't matter, teachers beat children; it is illegal, but as I was told recently at a child protection conference by a Thai professor "its Thai culture, you foreigners don't understand", in other words they know it is wrong but the teacher is higher than the child and so can do anything they want

I am British yet I cannot understand the fascination and awe that many British people feel for Diana and her memory. I remember when she died. I wasn't really bothered. Am I alone in feeling this way?
No you are not alone. She shook hands with someone with AIDS and walked through a mine field that had no land mines, and she took loads of holidays and we're expected to still miss her; be glad when the day is over.

And the church has never stolen anything, nor have they raped children? Nothing gets much lower than the righteousness of the religious
