Flood mitigation: 95 billion baht plan proposed for Bangkok
I agree. Move the city or this will be an ongoing issue that costs way too much and never delivers on time.

Pattaya Mobilises 420 Officers to Safeguard Festive Tourists
They sent 900 to Jomtien to find drugs and dealers. Now they will send 1/2 that to “police” Pattaya during the festivities? The police and other agencies should be out and about everyday, not just on holidays.

Mall Apologizes After 2-Year-Old’s Electric Shock From Decorative Lights
The incident was force majeure? Didn’t they have someone put up the lights. Did they check to make sure they were safe? I think they are just trying to get out of any compensation and making it known that if anyone else gets shocked it isn’t their fault. Glad the little one is recovering well, but they got lucky.

Chiang Rai: Father and Two Children Found Dead in Bathroom
Mr Turd was definitely going through a total breakdown and someone should have taken the kids until he was in a good place. Unfortunately that’s not done here and this stuff happens. If anything he should have left his kids out of his misery and not murdered them. The son was lucky to survive, but will have a difficult time getting back to life with this picture in his head. The mother should be ashamed too having left her kids with him and not make sure everything was fine. She wanted out and didn’t want to take her children. That’s not a real mother. Just a sad case that happens to often.

Jealous Husband Kills Wife, Dies in Shootout with Police After Intense Stand-off
Feel bad for his mother and RIP to his wife. I’m glad though that he was shot and killed just like he did to his wife, although she didn’t have a choice.

Chicken Rice Vendor Saves Italian Tourist with CPR
Well done to Somkiet and the nurse. That is exactly how we should be treating each other, especially in time of a crisis. Kudos for stepping up.

Thai man fatally attacks wife in alleged menstrual blood prank
3-15 years for abuse leading to murder. This justice system is definitely flawed. Hope he gets jail justice served to him as he did to his wife.

Thai bus ticket collector assaulted by passenger for rejecting his advances
Someone should harass those ministery officials and give their numbers out to the public. They are a disgrace and should be removed for blaming the victim.

Gorilla Smuggling Plot Destined for Thailand Discovered at Istanbul Airport
If Thailand was so concerned about wildlife care they would check Chatuchak market, all wildlife importers and release the poor ape stuck in the mall. Lucky Turkey inspectors found it because it probably would have made it through the Thai customs. There’s definitely something going on here. Would someone charge or pay 150,000 to transport and facilitate documentation for rabbits.

Three Abandoned Dogs Attack Residents in Suphan Buri; Authorities Capture One Dog
Just come up to Pratumnak hill and you’ll find many chasing cars, nipping at motorcycle drivers and people walking. Something needs to be done, but unfortunately we know nothing will happen. We have about 16 dogs in 3 packs on Soi 1 in Cosy Beach.

Thai Immigration Arrests Indian Man for 250-Day Overstay
Plenty more in Pattaya when they decide to look again or fill their quotas.

Navigating Pattaya: Are Thai-Language Signs Confusing Tourists?
Their traffic signs are the most amusing and confusing especially at red lights. Most people ignore them anyway these days, and just use google maps to go anywhere.

Convicted murderer who escaped a Mississippi prison on Christmas Eve has been captured
Sounds like a very safe jailhouse, especially for being new. I guess they cut corners or staff.

Dozens survive Kazakhstan passenger plane crash
Looks like the ones in the front of the plane were probably the ones that perished. The pilots were trying their best and at least saved a few lives.

Sad, but at least his house is still standing.

Thai Customs Seize E-Cigarettes, Nitrous Oxide, & Coin Changers Worth Over 30 Million Baht
I wish there were more coin changers around. Not from China, but I know several people that have piggy banks, and would love to cash in without separating them. Maybe they are speaking of slot machines. I guess we’ll never know.

37-Year-Old Man Shot Dead by Father After Heated Argument Over Laziness
It doesn’t sound like premeditated murder. The father probably was pushed too far and when the son grabbed his machete his father finally took action in fear of his life. He shot him in the stomach so it doesn’t look like he planned it and was just trying to end the situation. Gun use is becoming more common, but I’d rather be shot than hacked to death with axes, knives or machetes like they used to do, and still do.

Hong Kong man restrained by taxi drivers after rampage near Phuket airport
We certainly don’t need anymore mentally unstable people here. We have enough already. Just deport him now before he causes any more trouble.

Frustrated with Thai Immigration - 90 day online report frustrations
Everyone just be aware that if you leave the country or go on a local trip and the hotel registers you that you will have to do another TM30 when you return. Just from my experience, but maybe not everywhere. Also if you have a Thai person with you just book the hotel in there name so they don’t register you there.

Bangkok Lowers Speed Limit to 60 km/h Amid Safety Push
I highly doubt that the police will be out to enforce this. They will just depend on the CCTV’s to do their job. This will do nothing considering they don’t enforce the payment of the fines.

Mike Waltz Warns Hostage-Takers: “Bullet in Your Damn Forehead”
It’s time to make America strong again. It’s been weak for years and nothing like America used to be. It’ll take more than this, but it’s a start. America has been the butt of jokes all over the world and at least 1/2 of them don’t even know that.

Trump’s Transition Team Eyes Swift WHO Exit, Sparking Global Health Concerns
I agree. Why should the US have to be the biggest supporter when it’s for the World. They will still get the news, just without a bill. Stay in and contribute 5% and let the rest of the world make up the difference. It can be done, they just don’t want to do it.
