They could take the wings off and use them as submarines this would save the government a lot of money. Just paint them black and park them at naval bases.

India currently has an AIR BUBBLE with 18 countries to allow Indians to travel overseas. Thailand IS NOT one of the countries listed. So how does the Thai Government get the idea tourists will come from India. Another half baked idea full of dreams and self promotion.

Personal funds must be running low. Time to call in more contractors to do the job at 60% of the budget.

They start them young in human trafficking " Voueng Phorn aged 4"

Vietnam and Cambodia look better every day. Everything Pattaya has but cheaper. Can even afford a wine!

Another reason religion and state MUST be separated as in most democracies.

This will never happen when Thailand attracts opps sorry lures the very wealthy to become tourists and residents.

Don't see how level of education has any bearing on wages for labouring jobs. Incentives should be based on productivity and performance.

All a matter of interpretation. The all powerful government will always do what they want and how they want! and when they want.

Look at the basics. The police are there to up hold the law and enforce those laws. the problem is that from the top to the bottom the Thai police have no idea what the laws are. They view their job as a means of making an income to look after themselves and family. Until values of law enforcement are instilled into the whole of the police departments it is just another job. Education and intelligence are not a prerequisite and are not a requirement to be a police officer. Buy yourself a job and continue with a system of complete ignorance.

If Thailand has a false start and open to early and we see a big rise in Covid cases of both locals and tourists they can expect a big drop off in tourist numbers following a debacle. It will then take a lot longer to recover the tourists trust and dollars. The Thai tourist industry and associated businesses cannot stand a prolonged delay in the arrival of future tourists. "Act in haste repent at leisure"

If TAT/Govt are serious about attracting tourist and they want them to have a Covid test on arrival the Govt should make the test free. This will attract tourist and the Govt will make up any costs by way of the tourist being attracted and spending money. I know this is foreign thinking to the Thais they still want every tourist ripped off from the minute they pass through immigration. TAT definitely needs some good marketing people to run the place.

A fool and his money is soon parted! The Thai government does not realise that wealthy people are wealthy because they do not fall for the gilded lily "bulls**t. The have a brain that functions and will not be conned by some smooth real estate salesperson. The will look for stability and medium to long term returns that are not a floating risk.

Two cases are reported as irrelevant? Not to the people who died along with their families. Poor choice of words.

Brake failure!

With the vast amount of money spent on flood mitigation over the last few years this should not be a regular event. Poor planning and engineering and many brown envelopes are the reason Pattaya has to put up with this disgrace for city planning. Many countries and cities all over the word manage floods but then again the money goes to getting the best job done.

Once I thought I was indecisive now I an not so sure?

Working hard does not mean getting results! Old saying but true "50 years experience or 1 years experience 50 times" With the PM I think the latter applies.

Thailand's tourist down turn is OVER. Yesterday half of India coming to holiday, today 500,000 Russians and don't forget the article a few weeks back that the Chinese will flood back to Thailand as well. Glad to see they don't need the rest of the worlds tourists as all accommodation will be booked out and money will flowing in the streets.

The Governor needs to get in step with the Junta propaganda or he will finish up looking for a new position. The Government report numbers going down not escalating.

Great to see social distancing being enforced at Bang Sue Railway Station?

Can not see where Police Major was at traffic bingle. The article says police major was notified of bingle?.

Sounds like the NCDC has already made up their minds to approve SputniK V according to the statement made. Regulatory authorities normally meet to assess the vaccine and then give approval or deny registration on the information supplied by the manufacturer.
