Thai teacher accused of striking boy’s penis with steel ruler
Why? so far there is no evidence it actually happened the way the child said. Cameras showed nothing. Teacher claimed it was her day off. Only a 3 year old saying it happened that way. My 4 year old tells lies all the time about what things he thinks he will get into trouble for. Blaming anything and everything on someone or something else. So it is plausible the kid is only agreeing with grandma because she initiated the theory about the teacher doing it.

Chinese Murder Suspect Arrested at Phuket Airport
Aren't these 2 statement contradictory? The Chinese contacting Thai immigration to prevent this man from entering Thailand and arresting him for deportation as compared to their system flagging individuals who are wanted in other countries?

Thaksin Denies Role in Anti-Coup Legislation Moves
Hehe.. i am sure the facts that he was ousted by the military had no effect on the efforts to stop the military doing it again. Besides, soon there should be another one but then it will be Thaksins fault for making his daughter do what he wants as PM. No-one wants the military to engage in coups. But in some cases like Thaksin and Shinawatra a coup is needed just to get them out of the office. Otherwise this country would end up being another N. Korea with a dictator as the leader.

Explosion at Tak Festival Leaves 3 Dead, 39 Injured
I would tend to agree with you. Although news outlets usually push the worst news to the front especially violent crimes it seems there are more killings and violent acts now compared to previously. Are the younger Thais now getting older and more brazen? When will Thailand step up and take the blame for how kids are taught not to be responsible for their actions? These types of acts will continue to increase in the future.

Indian Man Arrested for Selling Ice Cream Without Permit in Sa Kaeo
a lot of sarcasm here today.. and although he is not committing a serious crime. He is working without a permit (with which most of you criticized in other OPs) and he is on overstay (which most of you criticized also. So what makes this Indian any different? Just because he was on overstay selling Ice-Cream?

ABC News Settles Defamation Lawsuit with Trump for $15 Million
That was when they changed what Harris said in the interview to show her giving a better reply than she had. CBS claims it was done for time allotment purposes although we all know differently. It will need a jury to resolve it. The ABC network knew they would lose so they opted to pay Trump the lesser amount than any jury would have meted out. CBS will fold and pay out also in a settlement if they see they are losing in the case or there is a chance they will lose.

Where Does It End? First She Wants Breast Implants, Now a Brazilian Butt Lift!
From the sounds of it... That is the reason she is asking money to begin with... Otherwise maybe she would accept the way she is and love him for real without all the demands or complaining that she wants those things done to her body.. The man, should be more interested in preparing for the medical costs to come with her advancing age..

First Mitch and Now Nancy Have Taken Bad Falls. Some Sources Say Pelosi Has Broken Her Hip
Am surprised no one here has yet posted the idea that these accidents are really Trumps fault. Perhaps he is the devil's advocate and has cursed them all to suffer for their parts in trying to suppress him haha.. Personally I hope they suffer more. But then, I do not like either of them and think they need to be sent to a geriatric ward with a muzzle.

Where Does It End? First She Wants Breast Implants, Now a Brazilian Butt Lift!
If she does not love herself the way she is, she can never love you for the way you are. You need to stop trying to modify her body. She should be happy with herself and that she has someone that loves her for who and what she is already. MY wife sometimes asks me about getting bigger boobs. But it is asked out of jealousy for other women who have bigger than she does. Seems to me you need to get your wife off her phone and into your arms more. Perhaps she thinks you would be happier if she had these medical procedures done. You are not telling her enough that you love her the way she is.

Transgender Fencer Sparks Controversy with Prestigious Win on Women’s Team
Have you ever read or seen or heard of a trans walk away from taking advantage of someone who is not a trans? Their competing against a weaker sex gives them the unfair advantage to win as shown in this OP. 26th place against men. 1st place against women..

Transgender Fencer Sparks Controversy with Prestigious Win on Women’s Team
They need to make special sports events strictly for trans to compete against each other. This unfair practice of allowing trans to join the same ranks as women is ridiculous.. They are neither men anymore nor women.. So why allow them to claim being a women when their bodies are biologically that of a man. It is a completely unfair advantage. Even with hormone injections the male is superior to the female in athletics.

Donald Trump Honored as Time Magazine's Person of the Year Once Again
Correct... https://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,2019712_2019694_2019588,00.html But, it was given to him prior to his reign over the country and destruction he caused. About a year after they named him this. They however did not name him Person of the Year afterwards. This is Trumps 2nd time being named it. A far comparison using Hitler and you are grasping at straws trying to do it.

Three Arrested for Stunts on Luxury BMWs; Bikes Confiscated
The OP fails to sa if they did these stunts on a open road causing any danger to the public or violating any traffic laws. Since none of those charges were addressed I fail to see why they were charged for the other things. Stunts should not be a crime unless endangering others. If people stop trying to challenge themselves in ways that may be dangerous. Then we as people become passive sheep waiting for the herder to give us things. There is no bravery. Also, I have seen in parades these types of stunts in the USA and China. Quite popular for fans of it to watch. It is an expensive lesson these kids learned this time. One I am sure they regret.

Pattaya Police Raid Karaoke Bars: Underage Patrons & Illegal Workers Discovered
I know it will not happen. but this kids parents should be arrested and charged with allowing their child to be out so late without their presence. It is no wonder that lately teens are acting out, joining gangs, killing or injuring others when their parents take no actions to care and raise their kids and allow them to be out late without any repercussions or punishments. In the US, if your child does not go to school. The police can arrest the parent. If they are caught out late at night without the parents presence, the parents can be charged with neglect and lack of care over the child. Thailand needs to adopt some laws that ultimately make the caregiver responsibility over what they allow their child to do.

I have decided I am going to write a book about my life experiences in Thailand.
It is your choice to write something or not.. Getting it published is an entirely different story. Making it in a way that does not shame or show Thailand in a bad way is nearly impossible as a foreigner if you write things that are factual. Why don't you try instead making promotional leaflets for Thailand to their tourism ministry. There you can lie about all the good things and never worry TPD does not come knocking on your door in the future for something written showing Thailand in a bad way. I am most certain if i was to write about my time in Thailand. I would be arrested for pornographic written material and showing the unsavory side of Thailand to the world for sure. But, i would bet you have spent your time in a nice condo or house, travelling to nice places. Never really seeing Thailand for what is hidden from most tourists. So your opinion would be better for tourists and more believable by them as well..

The '50-50 Race' Pre-Election Polls Were Phony
Funny of you to say this.... Because it was Harris who promoted the hate messages for Trump consistently about 100 times more than any hate messages given by the Republicans. Even the supporters for Harris did this and added that if you voted for Trump they would hate you also. Her whole campaign was about hate for Trump.

Canada is Petrified
I have yet to buy anything I can say is good quality from China. Not in 30 years... Cheaper yes. But not good quality that lasts.. The US needs to start making their own goods again of quality that they used to. Not being dependent on imported goods of lesser quality. People do not mind paying more if something is of value and the quality is worth making the purchase. The problem is and always has been that because 3rd world labor is cheap and manufacturing is cheap making it available for even the poor to buy. Those are the ones who will suffer when tariffs are given. Perhaps, if there are new opportunities for Americans to make their own quality goods again then the prices will be reduced and people around the world will begin to want American products again. But i do not see that happening for a long time. Instead prices may increase for the cheaper quality goods rather than people taking the opportunity to make their own high quality goods. Made in America no longer means good quality. Although, I think if something is made in America even with imported goods the quality is better than buying in Asia. Perhaps some of you do not know but what is sold in China to the Chinese is not the same quality as what is shipped out to other countries.

Thailand to tax residents’ foreign income irrespective of remittance
Also, if we are tax paying foreigners in Thailand why then do we have to pay double or triple for things just because we are foreigners? They should allow us the privilege to pay the same as Thai by showing a tax number or long term visa. Tourists can pay the double standards and be taxed accordingly for their purchases. It appears the government is trying to punish those of us living here, married here with families, or working here with yet another double standard. The country coffers must be drying up and this is their way to refill it. There are 2 other countries that have the taxation for income in and outside their countries. But they do not make you pay additional charges simply because you are a foreigner. Every person in the country is charged the same for things and services.

Thailand to tax residents’ foreign income irrespective of remittance
I am still curious about how this country can tax income that is earned and deposited overseas? If it is earned in another country then their respective banks would be reporting it to the local tax. But they can only do that because you signed releases to allow it when opening the account. Thailand banks may have new rules to make you sign a release so they can gain this information. But what about older accounts? Would anyone actually sign something new to allow them this authorization? None of my Thailand banks have my tax or income information other than receiving wire transfers from another country. If they request blanket permission to access my banks private information I would refuse and take my money from their bank. If they request access to my tax information from abroad I would not be able to give it since I never file taxes there. Un-taxable income is not required to file a tax return. So there is no record for them to check anyway. Given the really bad security issues dealing with banks leaking your personal information make me think it is not a good idea to provide banks with data from my country. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2425127/police-nab-state-officials-selling-user-information-to-scammers https://thethaiger.com/news/national/thai-bank-officer-nabbed-for-selling-customer-data-in-nonthaburi Does anyone else feel there may be risks in giving more information to the banks in Thailand than is absolutely necessary or to the government about the money we have or make outside of Thailand?

Nearly 15 Million ‘Fragile’ People Entitled To Digital Wallet Within Fiscal 2024
Don't they mean only 15 million... that number should be a lot higher. i would think that many who do not file taxes or have their names and incomes on record are a lot more than this 15 million
