Bangkok governor defends city’s fourth plan revision amid public criticism
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Bangkok needs decentralization to slow growth that can better serve the economic development of surrounding regions. Imagine instead a Bangkok-like development in the Southern and Northern Provinces. But that might dilute Bangkok metro's regional political strength. -
Rejected at Nong Kai border for unknown reason
Srikcir replied to siwiek's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes, especially since June 2022 the TM6 arrival/departure card was shelved at international airports in Thailand. https://www.thailandelitevisas.com/ Then later suspensions such as Nov. 1, 2023-April 30, 2024 at Sadao Immigration checkpoint. -
What happened to the government's plans for Very Small Power Plants created in 2020 to get operated by farming communities that uses harvested agricultural biomass as fuel versus just field burning the biomass? If successful, the then government alleged that it could save money by reducing sime agricultural subsidies and produce improve farmer revenues. Now we're back to "exploring."

Chris Christie exits 2024 White House race with parting shot at Trump
Srikcir replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
Leaving the race, Christie may hurt Trump. New Hampshire holds a "semi-open" primary that allows unregistered voters (aka Independent voters) in addition to registered Republicans to vote in the Republican primary. According to current registrations, Republicans represent about 30% and independent voters about 40%. The unregistered voters have the potential to put Halley in first place. -
Navy Not Lobbying Ministers Over Chinese Submarine: Suthin
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Thailand already paid $193.7 million (7 billion baht) installment on one Chinese sub purchase. Probably why Thailand Navy considered taking a frigate instead so the installment payment made during PM Prayut's regime to China could be shifted towards a substitute purchase. Regardless, without any submarine the Thai Navy (and Thai taxpayers) is stuck with a 540 million baht newly-built submarine facility, training center, submarine simulator centered on the Chinese sub purchase, and a squadron of submariners trained in Germany and South Korea (?). Time to shift priorities Mr. Defense Minister Suthin Khlangsang and find a solution that fits the Thai taxpayer's pocket book. -

Shall the nation move on to people who pretend to be unbiased and non-political senators and judges? Say lifetime ban? -
Senate panel to seek support for censure debate against government
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Instead of focusing on the efficiency and sustainability of Thailand's national healthcare system facing an aging population, declining birthrate, budget coverage issues and increasing mental health-related problems1, the Senate wants to focus on Thaksin's health. Do the nation a favor and dissolve yourselves to better the health of democracy in Thailand. 1 The number of Thais suffering from mental health problems rose from 1.3 million in 2015 to 2.3 million in 2021, not to mention increasing suicides.

How “peacemaker” Thaksin is stirring up Thai politics
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
When the foundations for Democracy in Thailand continue to exist only in the People's hearts and minds without a path to sustainable action, Number One becomes a privileged class rather than any one individual. -
Cigna Global health insurance renewal – Now I’m getting worried .
Srikcir replied to tomgreen's topic in Health and Medicine
In your search I suggest that you try to include out patient coverage given your age. Any cancer diagnosis typically associated with elderly ages will require frequent medical services and extensive medication, regardless of whether you're using private or government hospitals. Don't give up! -
Either a bouy is required for an accurate array reporting or not is the issue, not how they work, cost or available. Depending on the criticality of position and amount of data missing, replacement should be ASAP - not months later. When the Thai military looks to spend billions on armaments to defend the nation against non-existent foes, there's no reason not to stockpile a couple of these bouys against the real and often unpredictable tsunami threats. I hope this helps.

Bull sir.

Swift Action of Sattahip Doctor Saves Injured Traffic Victim

Or amulet. -
"A replacement buoy has been procured from the US, expected to be delivered to Thailand in March." Never anticipated a buoy needing replacement? It's like an American football team with a missing guard. Still operational to play but missing the guard opens a vulnerability to succeed. When the military is trying to buy frigates, missiles, submarines, aircraft fighters, etc. having a couple backup tsunami monitoring bouys would seem just as important to the nation's security.

Thai Team Wins Top Prize at Ice Sculpture Contest in Harbin

Maybe splitting icicles, but the picture of the winning sculpture appears to be a packed-snow sculpture verses an ice sculpture shown by OP thestat. Ice is translucent. -

Charitable foundations in Thailand have apprehension powers versus the RTP? Without police/military involvement such apprehension could be considered kidnapping. -
Tesla crash causes 12-car pileup, driver faces drink driving charges
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Central Thailand
Might have avoided the accident if engaged. Even with just the basic autopilot, if you enable it and don't react to the steering wheel nags, it will slow down to a stop and engage brakes. So likely the drunk driver did not engage self-driving if the option was included (no evidence that is was). -
You are not aware that Thailand had forcibly annexed parts of the South that was the Muslim Kingdom of Patani into the Kingdom of Thailand as well as complete Thai governmental subjugation of Islamic culture, traditions and language? So yes, hardly appropriate. But like Russia's forced annexation of Crimea, provided free access to the resources of the Muslim Kingdom.

Army Commander Refutes Claims of Legal Action Over Traditional Attire
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Maybe as disturbing: Enforcement of articles 22 to 25 of The Act on Prevention and Suppression of Torture and Enforced Disappearance put into law effective Feb. 22, 2023 was postponed by PM Prayut until October 1. On May 18, 2023 the Constitutional Court ruled the postponement was illegal and must be retroactively effective from February 22, 2023. I've not seen any public announcement to date by the new government and its military surrogates that it has made enforcement of the act operational. Recall also that parts of the South continue under a State of Emergency including martial law and the Internal Security Act, which grants the security forces a lot of (undemocratic) power in the region.
