  1. What Western luxury watch is made in China? I believe none, albeit some parts might be Chinese manufactured such as a casing or minor moving parts. For example Swiss Luxory watches must have final assembly in Switzerland with 60% Swiss made parts. So why would one (ie., Thai customs) use a Hong Kong representative for verification of authenticity?
  2. Is there such a thing as a Russian veteran from the Russian-Ukraine war apart from being severely wounded (excludes lost of limbs!) or dead?
  3. A majority supported Putin's 2014 invasion of Ukraine's Crimea and support actually increased when Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022 with over 80% in July 2023. 2017 Gallup International poll, favorable views of Putin by country: Thailand @ 43%.
  4. I thought police were trained using nonviolence methods to detain violent suspects: Cops reveal stick method to subdue suspects TUESDAY, JULY 18, 2017 SHARE
  5. Complete diversion and fake competitiveness for a most serious failure: Thailand's exports have declined for nine consecutive months. Would Bank - Higher productivity is key to Thailand's future economic growth and prosperity (2020). But in 2023 weak demand from China, US and Europe has stalled Thailand’s exports.
  6. Great. Can they start with China's grab of the entire South China Sea as part of China's sovereignty?
  7. Ironic, fossils being carbon neutral.
  8. The current government tried Thaksin in absentia under a new law devised by the former junta leadership but now seems to make every effort to keep him from returning. That's FEAR.
  9. MFP doesn't owe any other party "good faith" when itself is denied the same. Where is the good faith for the Thai People?
  10. Or was it the Committee on Injustice and Inhuman Rights Affairs?
  11. No mention for songtaews or public buses where there is more likelihood for mass injuries in a crash?
  12. Revenue sharing is unpredictable unless there's "price fixing." How is that competitive?
  13. Convicted in absentia. Provision in the new Organic Act on Criminal Procedure for Holders of Political Positions of 2017 passed by a pro-junta Parliament that allows trials in absentia. Sounds more like a Jester court than a kangaroo court.
  14. I've heard of booster shots but now I know what a booster gratuity looks like.
  15. Is this why among other reasons the RTP has yet to implement the Prevention and Suppression of Torture and Enforced Dissapearance Act of 2022? RTP says it lacks the money, training, equipment and guidelines to implement the law. You know, like it seems with all the other laws RTP is supposed to enforce. Just as an aside, the RTP is under the supervision ofthe National Police Commission chaired by PM Prayut.
  16. It might also pay attention to the caretaker government's delay through the RTP NOT to comply with the Anti-torture and Enforced Disappearance Act of 1922, law announced in the Royal Gazette on October 24, 2022. So I guess for now the "old rules" still prevail with RTP in dealing with public disturbances - rules an anti- democracy leadership might find effective to suppress freedom of speech.
  17. In a democracy you vote people out of power, not at gunpoint.
  18. There are 35 spaceports and launch facilities worldwide that can launch spacecraft or satellites into orbit or suborbit. In Asia there is Japan, South Korea, India, French Guianna. Thailand would be smarter to partner with these countries, but Prayut is all about his egotistical Thai Hub of ASEAN. What Thailand really needs is more dependable electrical power generation such as nuclear power and reduce its import of carbon-based fuels.
  19. I suggest dissolution instead of resolution.
  20. It should be seen as a constitutional requirement, regardless of pay. The Constitution doesn't make Parliament voting optional. I would apply the same to abstaining on a vote as well. Breach the Constitution, the Constitutional Court should suspend the Parliament member without privileges of office.
  21. That was not MFP's agenda.
  22. I'd like to know the specific facts and applicable law in this case. Do the 12 individuals legally and historically (ie., not the day before sale) each have a title/charnote for a parcel of the whole real estate? Might be a partnership of the 12 with equal individual percentages of ownership. Would it matter? May depend on a partnership agreement where parcels can be sold individually without unanimous partnership agreement. The public perception might be a single property ownership but legally the opposite. A further complication is that Thailand uses common law driven by culture and tradition versus case law.
  23. 1981 – Ferdinand Marcos won with 89% of the vote US doesn't use popular vote for POTUS but electoral college whose electors come from state popular voting. Thus, for example US Electoral college results: LBJ: 486-52. Ronald Reagan: 489-49 Abraham Loncoln: 212-21
  24. I too just saw the movie at a regular screening at Major Cineplex Central Rama 2. I'd say about 85-90% is closeup dialog that really nullifies paying for high-tech screening. The theater had only 8 seat rows and IMAX not available.
  25. Toilet paper doesn't qualify as classified documents.
