Former-PM Yingluck acquitted by Supreme Court
This is the second case that the courts have "cleared up" for Yingluck. All that remains, I think, is the rice scheme "case".

Air Force to surrender golf course at Don Mueang airport to AoT
"In principle." Translated: Don't hold your breath. The RTAF/military agreed in principle last year, then reneged. Their TV station(s)? Overthrowing and forming governments might be considered non-military business activities.

Thai taxi driver slams cops for toll indulgence
Sounds like this may have been Bolt? A lot of visitors use that service as it allows for cash payment. There shouldn't be any confusion as the passenger and the driver have the same route/price info. Any tollway option needs to be discussed and agreed to. Probably some confusion on the options, but the driver has the receipts. There are a few toll routes and non-toll routes from the DMK area to Wat Bowoniwet. I am curious about the disputed amount. I don't think it could be much more than 50 ~ 60 baht.

The Russians seem to have had much better success annexing Phuket than they have had in Ukraine.

Thai surrogacy revolution: Foreign couples welcome
This will go badly, again. Just as it did in 2018. Someone with power must be pushing this agenda.

TM30 online - how to delete a submission ?
I'd file a new one, with the corrected information.

90 day rejected
When was your current TM30 filed? You may have to file a new TM30 on the new website. There has been anecdotal speculation that the TM47 system bounces against the TM30 system, and with a significant mismatch in data, the TM47 is rejected. If you live in Bangkok then you have to file a TM47 in person at CW; you can make an appointment.

Public anger boils over in protests in Phuket against Swiss man Mr Uli and private beaches
The villagers are definitely getting restless, and they want a head on a pike. Even the National Police Chief is commenting on this "case". He has ordered the CIB to fully investigate "David the Swissman". Seems like there is a lot of animosity towards foreigners and tourists busting loose. The amount of focus on this one case seems way out of proportion.

Cabinet Reshuffle Only Depends On Thaksin, Not Srettha
When you have to say that you're not a puppet, guess what, you're a puppet. Next step: lap dog. If he had a gram of self-respect he would resign.

PM Srettha’s billion-baht plan to transform Suvarnabhumi Airport
They should probably start building a new, bigger airport if they expect to service 75 million people. This is under absolutely perfect conditions. Maybe. The third runway is too close to 1L/19R for simultaneous dual operations. Rainy season? Meh.

How far in advance can you go to immigration for a retirement visa extension?
Best to ask in your reporting office. Think there have been reports of even earlier than 30/45 days, with proof of travel. Google: how early can i renew retirement extension site:aseannow.com

What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2024)
Dune Part 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UtYt6Vg2nY IMAX Siam Paragon Epic, amazing. Near perfection. Cast/performances, writing/dialog, cinematography, SOUND. Will clean up on the Oscars. Everything I imagined when I first read the book in 1966. (IMAX theatres here were showing Dune Part 1 in the week leading up to the release of Part 2, for 99 baht! I did go see Part 1 then in IMAX.) See this on the biggest, best screen available. If not IMAX then the Pavalai theatre at Sima Paragon. The only ding for me was Christopher Walken's performance as Shaddam IV. Painful to watch, less cowbell. Director Dennis Villeneuve has said he is interested in making a PArt 3, based on Dune Messiah, completing the arc of Paul Attreides. There is a TV show due this year called Dune Prophecy, a prequel on the origins of the Bene Gesserit (Jesuit), perhaps based on the Brian Herbert Book "Sisterhood of Dune".

Land title deeds for farmers: Can Thailand escape the poverty trap?
Which document(s) is conveyed from the government/RTA (in most cases mentioned so far) to the recipient in this new scheme? Is it still a Sor Por Kor 4-01 It can't be a Chanote right? Sor Por Kor 4-01 deeds to be changed into normal title deeds as a New Year’s gift The Sor Por Kor 4-01 documents held by farmers will be turned into land title deeds as a New Year’s gift for farmers, Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister Thamanat Prompow said. Speaking at Government House on Monday, he said the Agricultural Land Reform Office (ALRO)'s secretary-general has been appointed to discuss the legal process of the change with relevant agencies. Thamanat said the change will be discussed by relevant officials to see when it can be granted. He added that there will also be an approval of details related to land possession. https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/policies/40031749 Whenever I see Capt. Thamanat associated with some new government policy I am immediately suspicious.

Watch Your Drinks
How does a Thai person get Rohypnol? How do they know what the proper dosage is? Are they worried about killing the intended victim? The symptoms described in this story are consistent with Rohypnol.

Thailand Plans Year-End Ban on Recreational Cannabis
Can you expand on this statement? Is there a list of these licensed herbal practitioners? Who are they? Where are they located? What qualifications were required for their licenses? What types of extracts can be prescribed? How are those dispensed? Are foreigners eligible? Which diagnoses are approved for cannabis? Can they write prescriptions today for cannabis flower over 0.2%?

Retirement extension completed in minutes - NO AGENT
Why would the OP be so vexed about how others manage their visa/extension processes? This fascination with how others do something, and the neediness of these people to shame others is perplexing.

Thai leader Paetongtarn Shinawatra among 150 selected for new NDC defence course
I think this course has but one goal, to strengthen personal networking benefits.
