Neeranam notes that RTP detractors is another name for Thai bashers, who move here for developing country benefits like cheap rent and living, desperate young ladies, yet moan about things like the police. 

Can't burn you cake at both ends. 

And most other people note that Neeranamis is talking absolute bo!!ocks.

 Can't have your candle and eat it ????????

If it is a success Phuket will be empty ????????

6th for personal finance and 39th for quality of life, 45th for safety and security and 48th for environment and climate out of 50 cities, sounds rather <deleted> to me.

Just another load of bo!!ocks headline from aseannow.

Sounds like an excellent idea, stop broadcasting football ????????, replacing it with watching paint dry videos, much more entertaining ????????

Best comment I have read in ages ????????????????

Regardless of what country I have been in the only problem I have experienced whilst paying with cash has been insufficient change in a till which has been quickly rectified.

Digital payments? At best, just as quick as paying with cash but that rarely occurs. I have lost count of the times when a customer in front of me has a problem with their phone, not enough credit in their bank and the worst is when they produce a fist full of 'money off' vouchers and a 26 baht digital refund is required. 

Digital currency, a hackers dream, and they can spend your hard earned anonymously in the dark web, trying to recover money from the banks in the UK is relatively easy if your card has been cloned but here? Not the banks fault, you need to take the matter up with the atm manufacturer etc.

Best of luck with the money of the future but for me, if I cant see it, I can't count it, I ain't interested.

A big seminar was arranged in Phuket called the Tourism Safety and Security Conference, rather ironic as a building in Phuket with 30 rooms for rent collapsed yesterday ????????

Imagine a very large country not far away sending its military and missiles here in a 'special military operation' and the majority of other countries do not condemn the action.

Thailand, money number one.

Not intentional... Maybe this couple should go to the local branch, rob it, and when caught claim it was unintentional as they have an account at that branch and just thought they were making an ordinary withdrawal. 

You beat me to it, I was going to say exactly the same ????????

Smashed all the windows and destroyed the computers, it was completely unintentional as I was trying to swat a mosquito.

3rd world and always will be.

So why is it so f in difficult for a photo of the correctly and incorrectly printed 20 baht notes to be shown in this article? Or is that beyond the capability of the editors.

Showing their true colours, money number one.

An iron bar was used to prize its jaws open? Should have been used repeatedly to fracture its skull in multiple places, negates the bill to have it put down.

I watched a news article yesterday regarding the flooding in Bangkok, 50% of the flood water pumps had ceased functioning, maybe an understanding of preventative maintenance would not go a miss but that would require a competent work force.
