Not attitude adjustment!!! Bring out the comfy chair.

"Fisheries monitoring, controls and punishments were inadequate and had to be brought up to international standards."

Farang do not understand Thainess. Thailand does not need to meet international standards, because Thai standards are more strict and arise out of traditional fishing practices which are centuries old.

I don't know one industry in Thailand that is operated within international standards.

I assume the guy in green is the complainant. Probably works in hotel security for one of the nearby luxury resorts. He could use a few months away from the buffet line.

How could there not be careless service when a girl was left in a locked bathroom to die? Disgraceful!

AIT is a good university. It is really the only international university in Thailand. Over 70% of its students are foreign-born. It's nowhere near a top-ranked university globally, but I am more willing to hire a graduate from AIT than from Chula, Mahidol, or Thammasat.

In a land where sanuk, being lazy is more important than working hard. In a country where corruption is an art form and in a country where face value is more important than the truth, grades and student progress are a not real,cleaning the house is a waste of energy.

Face the truth and rebuild your house. From scratch and with the help of foreign experts from Japan, Korea and Singapore.

Are you saying that investigating and prosecuting government officials who illegally extorted money from parents and who took that money and money intended to be used for the betterment of student education for their personal benefit is a waste of energy?

I agree that an overhaul of the education system is needed. However, it starts with better pay and training of teachers. It seems some of the reforms mentioned may be a start in that direction.

The PM will learn one day that the pen is mightier than the sword.

I'm sure you can't be referring to Thai journalists and media, but perhaps social media.

If you have established PC, get a warrant and arrest them. If you don't have sufficient evidence, <deleted> and get back to work.

It would be difficult for anyone to be immediately charged in this case, although it doesn't look good for Prawee and his boys. Chang is claiming Prawee and his partners are extorting him for money. Prawee claims Chang took money from him and he is just trying to recover it. I doubt the Pattaya police are willing to invest the time to properly investigate this matter.

How about they turn their eyes on the education system itself. These graduates who can not get a job and can not pay their loans is because EVERYONE graduates. With their NO fail system even some idiot who did not learn anything will get a degree. The companies who hire people know this and look to their class positioning at graduation to know if they really understood and learned. So the rest who just skated and copied their way through school can get hired.

If they got these lazy students out of the school system instead of passing them through and paying even more, they could save billions of baht for a student who tries and studies and learns.

Until the universities develop curriculum and hire lecturers which are designed to cultivate original and critical thinking skills, eliminating flotsam and jetsam is pointless. You just have fewer students memorizing the same worthless information, and not learning how to think for themselves.

What most Thais want is irrelevant, the only thing that matters is what the General and the elite want.

Actually, the NRC proposed direct election back in December, but it was rejected by the CDC. Both PAD and PTP opposed direct election.

We are all here by invitation for R & R Renting hookers & Riding hookers and when this first started in the 60’s no one bothered to complain about nudity on any social media, I have a picture some ware. of a very scantly clad Thai lady on Soi 6 Pattaya with a large sign round her neck with buy one drink free blow job buy to drinks free <deleted>. and No uproar

How long have you lived in Thailand? Sorry to disappoint you, but a blow job is a mixed drink. They are offering a free drink, if you buy one.

Crazy Brit. You don't visit a foreign country, rent a car, and drive with reckless abandon. You don't know the roads and you are a guest.

I hope they lock up Mr. Benjamin in a Thai prison cell for a few years and not just let him go back to the island after paying off the officer's family.

My condolences to Police Lance Corporal Wiroon's family and friends. Terrible that this happens at the end of the Songkran holiday.

The only thing MICT knows about social media is either dissemination of propaganda or censorship. As far as I can tell, the ministry has no other purpose.
