Maybe it would be good to use the word curfew when there is a curfew, and 'bar closing times' for what this is.

I'm sorry but the article mentions the word CURFEW.

CURFEW is something very serious happening only during war time and, speaking about Thailand, during the frequent coups.

CURFEW is NOT harmless. This is serious. With army keeping the streets empty.

So, please journos, tell us if we are speaking about a CURFEW or just a "bar closing time".

Winnie thinks we are speaking about "bar closing time" but remember that a Military Junta is running this country...

Chuwit as Police Chief and the motorbike taxis as officers => within one week, all the places making money on the vice will be identified and published in the newspapers. Then... it's up to the Phu Yai

As mentioned in the article, every thing depends on the Thai Extremists. If they act -under martial law-, it will be the proof that "someone" is masterminding the story.

As an observer of the case since 15 years, I can tell you that the worst guys in charge was the team Abisith - Kasit who really wanted the war because they indeed believe, like the crazy yellow shirts, that the temple IS Thai.

Trafficking ice in a fridge is a must.

Not only question of money. Question of values, as well.

Thais don't mind to kill => check in the prison => your sentence will be far lower if you kill your neighbor than to if you carry 100 gr of drugs.

Obviously in a street, GOD is the CAR. Not Buddha and first of all, not the pedestrian which is just a human being. A driver is more than that, it's a human being able to by a CAR. His value is higher than a pedestrian.

Nor need money or end corruption to drive with respect to the pedestrians or cyclists.

In some country pedestrians have the priority and the driver will care and respect them. In Thailand a driver can do ANYTHING to a pedestrian or a cyclist just because he has power but, one more time, it's not a question of money but of value => he could be rich and respect the poor. Or not.

"empowerment of the people, clean and balance politics, social justice and peace for the nation" is kind of far from the 12 Junta Leader values.

It's close to the horrible western values Junta Leader hates.

Thais are not different than the other people in the world.

If they cannot compromise, it's not a question of race or "losing face". To compromise is something people can learn. At school for example.

But, of course, it supposes first that every body accept the concept of "equality" between the human beings.

Anyway, this is obviously foreigners because, as you know "No Thais are vile enough to make something so disgusting."

Thailand considers that, as the country is richer, it gets automatic impunity.

Thais can kill Cambodians, this is natural, like the cat can kill mice.

Cambodians are not allowed to kill Thais because it would go against natural laws.

Bla bla bla then

"Apinan Aramrat, director of the Chiang Mai University's Northern Substance Abuse Centre, said drug suppression measures so far hadn't involved major dealers."

And what if police caught the major dealers first?

These journos discuss as if there was a discussion opportunity.

Thailand is ruled by a military junta. This is a dictatorship. This is not a value judgement, this is an objective fact.

Period.

The Junta Leader tries to take advantage of the decision already made by the Japanese.

They officially announced that they are willing to make this track a few days ago. Check the news. NOT to please the Junta leader but because they want to help countries like Cambodia and Myanmar.

Too bad that the junta is autistic because this article shows good points.

Learning that, population in Dakota, Mississippi, Nevada and Wyoming became scary and beg Thai Wise Leaders to forgive American politicians for their insolence.

Keep cool Pornpimol, you'll get a stroke.

30 billions! OMG! Double sentence =>the drug problem will not disappear + corruption could increase.

A tip => don't catch the smallest fish bcz he will crowd the prisons, just use him for backtracking and get the big fishes.

Another English speaking newspaper in Cambodia suggests another story.

Try to find it and read it.

Obviously the Sofitel boys are scapegoats.

No one go to the gym with $140,000.

My guess: the general lost this money at the casino but does not dare to confess to his wife.

Is this "Groundhog Day" or what?

Every 3 months, I awake and read the same article about Thai people who should learn foreign languages...

...

...

...

and didn't.

These Thainess fairs are for Thai tourists in Thailand.

I visited the one in Lumpini. It was successful. Thousands of people, mainly Thais.

No interest for foreigners as it's just a big OTOP event.

Foreigners don't care to know that in this small village, local residents make honey or body cream or bags or dress.

Foreigners like sun, good hotel, nice smile, cheap massage, "aroy" food, not poor craft or folklore. Not special to Thailand => craft and folklore are ALWAYS ridiculous for foreigners, in any country.

Khmer Yang (Grilled Khmer) is a Thai delicacy available at the border thanks to the Thai army.

Who is the source / writer?

Is it me or this article sounds "weak"? The writer, NBTC, Facebook, all of them seem to know that the step is absolutely useless, pointless, hopeless and other words in -less.

Discover Thainess

and

Visit Thailand

are very different concept

Who would be interested in Frenchness, USness, Spanishness (major tourists destinations)?

People want to visit France USA or Spain.
