    Not this crap again :saai: Originally, it was within a 300m radius, but then they changed the law to be more in line with modern Thai police enforcement and made it "near" educational institutions.

     

    So let me pretend I'm trying to enforce this law. Now, clearly 300m is way too far and not practical in such a built up city as Bangkok, so I'll be generous and make my radius around education institutions a mere 50m - let's see who needs to be fined?

     

    Well, i came across Mode Sathorn and the Mandarin Oriental immediately. (That's, because they're major landmarks and show up first on the map.) Now, I'll give up my search, because I'm sure I'd probably find 100's of 7/11s, Hotels and Bars within my 50m radius (and that's just downtown BKK :coffee1:

     

    Tawandaeng at the intersection of Narathiwas and Rama 3 road. Plus two 7-11s, one Lawson 108 and one MaxValue (plus a very, very nice and decent neighbourhood pub) all situated within shouting distance of two schools - one government school and one international school, on my soi.

     

  2. It really beggars believe that not only do they have no shame about letting guests come to a place that is less than clean, they rejoice when these guests - their guests - do the dirty job for them! I guess this statement sums up how delusional these people are:

     

    Quote: “The country needs tourists like these..."

     

    I have an idea though - I will not clean my condo for a few weeks, then invite my friends over for the weekend...

    Come on RTP.....my guess is that you already know the culprits....just do your job!

    A hit this big would not be able to be kept 100% secretive...!

    Most probably faffing about to buy time and come up with a (mostly laughable) story on who/what/why/how this happened, or looking for some viable scapegoats, or both, while the real culprits disappear into thin air, if they have not already done so. And that, is the brown clowns actually doing their jobs.

    Should do the same as with the minivans put in a GPS system that beeps if the driver goes too fast and software that reports them to the police at that time. That would help as it would cost them money if they go to fast.

     

    I have read in other topics that it its working for minivans.

    Yup, until someone finds a way around the system, the way they found ways to rig taxi meters... LOL

    “The authorities managed to prevent damage up to a level,” 

    What does this mean? they prevented nothing the bomb went off

     

    Just a massive but lame and misguided face-saving attempt. Basically, they knew jack$hit and even if they did know something, have done absolutely nothing about it. Officialdom here loves to underline their ineptness, you see.

  6. "He said the international community had a good understanding of the new Constitution and the road map to a general election after the government explained the whole process."

     

    And then...

     

    "The Foreign Ministry will later distribute an English version of the Constitution to foreign diplomats to give them a better understanding of the charter content, Don added."

     

    Don the Con must have meant the 'Thai-speaking' international community in the first statement. In other words, the rest of the world has no bloody clue.

     

    Last but not least...

     

    "If any diplomatic groups or international organisation still had queries on the new charter , the Foreign Ministry was ready to hold an explanatory session, he said."

     

    What, organise a special, one-off attitude adjustment party for all diplomats and international organisations?

     

     

  7. Strictly enforced. Yes, right. Ok, holidays are here, time to get to work for the next seven days. Reducing death toll to zero... ROFLMAO... come on you nitwits. Stop smoking whatever you're smoking (or drinking), stop coming up with these lofty (and unachievable goals) and get ENFORCE the damned law. 365 days a year. That's all.

     

  8. Oh dear, the stupidity of the brown clowns continue unabated.

     

    Just yesterday, BKK Chief Clown Chaktip said and I quote: "It's not an act of terrorism or an act to stir unrest."

     

    Now the Deputy National Chief Clown says it's likely "an attack... aimed at creating chaos and panic in society..."

     

    It boggles the mind how these idiots are so really, truly and undeniably immune to feeling stupid.
