    It offers a much better alternative to those of us that come and go frequently, that's not open for debate.

     

    What's not normal about it, pls tell. The only thing i see is you get your nose / throat raped 3 times, it's a great time to visit the beaches of thailand, cleanest they've been for decades and the water. hardly anyone about, what's not to like?

    Still wouldn't swim in a Thai beach. Just because you clean the toilet seat doesn't mean it's safe to drink from the bowl.

    A shipment that large and concealed how ot was needs a lot of moving parts.  You need quite a number of people.  Thais, Chinese, Australian to pull it off.  Glad that somehow, during the process that the crime was discovered.  Pity the shipment wasn't stopped before lea Thailand, because Australian prisons are too nice for lowlifes.

    If they stopped it before it arrived in Australia then Thais involved could be prosecuted and not run for office.  Ask a certain agricultural minister who trafficked drugs to Australia and spent time in an Aussie prison.  The Thai courts found him squeaky clean as he drug trafficking was abroad.

    And, of course students who protested remain in jail with no bail.

     

    And those who led the 2014 protests, were CONVICTED, but released on bail within a day.

     

    The Thai "legal" system. Curious.

     

    Wissanu says a fake PhD is irrelevant if Thammanat has a genuine BA degree

     

    Even if Deputy Agriculture Minister Thammanat Prompao’s doctorate degree from a university in California is fake, it does not disqualify him from being a cabinet minister, Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngarm said today (Friday).

     

    Citing a provision in Constitution, regarding the required qualifications of a minister, he explained that a proposed cabinet member must have graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in any field.

     

    In Thammanat’s case, he said the Office of the Secretary-General of the Cabinet had checked the embattled minister’s educational background and found that he graduated from the Chulachomklao Royal Military Academy with a diploma equivalent to a BA degree.

    A diploma isn't equal to a degree
