If confirmed, Georgian Dream's victory would prove a blow to those Georgians who hope for closer integration with Europe in a vote billed as a choice between the West and Russia. Early official results with 70% of precincts counted, representing the majority of votes cast, showed the ruling party had won 53% of the vote, the electoral commission said. The results do not include most ballots cast by Georgians living overseas. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/georgia-votes-election-seen-stark-choice-between-russia-west-2024-10-26/ Putin will not allow a Georgian break away for sovereign independence. Otherwise Putin will have to conduct another Special Operation.

More like "We ignore any official accusations." The Putin regime is incapable of truth outside its propaganda.

What a great job opportunity. And cultural display for Italy. Maybe we'll see the Star of India - world’s oldest active sailing ship. https://sdmaritime.org/visit/the-ships/star-of-india/ I would like to see the USS Constitution, also known as Old Ironsides - a three-masted wooden-hulled heavy frigate of the United States Navy. She is the world's oldest commissioned naval warship still afloat. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Constitution

If the customer used an app such as K+ to make a transfer, couldn't the restaurant simply use an app to transfer money back to the customer?

It's not the laws are weak but the emphasis of civil disobedience over criminal disobedience. The National Police seems less focused (or ignorant?) on enforcing laws from a criminal aspect to enforcing civil peace which has little to do with the rule of law.

Might better be labeled the 'National Anti-Corruption Corrupt Commission.' Historically in my opinion as a cover agency for the "Good People" who get caught.

Of course. I am comparing former process to current proposals to show how much the weakness in new proposals. It is worse than when it was bad.

Yes, and that's the disparity in the police and judicial system - inability to corrupt them!

It seems like Thailand has a "give and take" foreign fund policy: you give and I take. Rarely do you see (any?) Thailand exporting investment funds to other nations to aid in developing import businesses for Thai products and materials.

May qualify for the 10-year Long Term Resident visa costing 50,000 baht to avoid taxation.

Thailand has been on a dedollarization "warpath," preferring BRIC currencies to other international currencies, many of which are tied to the USD. Japanese yen is not a BRIC currency. But if Thailand wants Japanese investments, it will be baht for yen.

Understandable that the former military coup leader doesn't respect the majority electorate. His coup written 2017 constitution passed referendum with less than a majority of registered voters. As much as I object to an unelected Senate, I agree as a minimum "that at least half of all eligible voters participate in a referendum and that the winning option secure support from at least half of those voters." Frankly, it should be 75% of eligible voters and passage with 50%. The constitution is not some student term paper. Thailand as a Constitutional Monarchy must consider the approval of the majority electorate for whom the sovereignty of the nation resides.

Irrespective of the civil issues regarding what damage and compensation should be made, the rule of law must be applied to determine violation of law. That should be the role of the police, not any civil negotiations. Police should not be collecting "settlement" payments for damage. Police are not civil agents, they are law and order agents.

This is not a civil matter but a criminal matter. Regardless of the intentions of survivors, the law must be applied to bring justice for the victim. In this case perhaps manslaughter. It is the duty of the police to investigate and determine if laws apply and prosecute the person allegedly responsible for the death.

If he intends to live in Thailand as a resident, maybe consider qualification for the 10-year Long Term Resident visa. Annual notifications, extension of stay at 5 years, no bank deposits or foreign transfers required. Cost 50,000 baht.

I also wave my hands towards any oncoming vehicles in both directions like a "hello see me." The idea is people in cars and motor bikes may be focused looking further beyond the crosswalk or memorized by heavy or fast traffic that they don't mentally "see" the occupied cross walk.

The Brtish chose a constitutional monarchy for their national representative of sovereignty wherein the citizens (aka the electorate) through legislation and constitution decide the privileges and authority of the monarch. (see Magna Carta). If the monarchy is by law required to pay taxes appropriate to any earnings, the monarchy will pay those taxes.

My favorite is chicken teriyaki on a wrap (don't like eating all that bread in a 6") with tomatoes, lettuce and sweet onion teriyaki sauce - delivered hot. Always get two chocolate chip cookies. Keep receipt, do online survey, get coupon for two chocolate cookies!

Sometimes in life you just "need a leg up" to reach your goals.

You can cut and paste Thai messages into Google translation for English on your tablet/phone, get automatic translation.

No. But similar to when Thai Red Bull heir Vorayuth "Boss" Yoovidhya ran police checkpoint and hit police officer who died.

Incident occurred 3 September 2012. The statute of limitations on the speeding charge expired in September 2013, and on the fleeing the scene of an accident charge in September 2017. The statute of limitations for the reckless driving causing death charge will expire in 2027. So 2012-2027 or 15 years.

Sounds like the "Red Bull" incident that allegedly killed a cop at a checkpoint. But unlikely this foreigner will be able to escape the country until statue of limitations runs out, nor be able to corrupt police investigators to the extent charges can't be filed in an absentia trial.

Okay - 53.4% for Opposition. Okay - 52.8% for government. Math seems odd, GT 100%? Opposition looks to me to remain strong despite government recent alleged achievements, ie., what has been accomplished historically by the government irrespective of who controls the government. Nothing unique really being done for Thai citizens by the present government versus two decades of previous governments other than getting UN accreditation for Human Rights Committee.
