Bangkok Streets to Undergo Significant Improvements
RandolphGB replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
You have yellow tinted glasses and by the sounds of it, you don't walk along lower Sukhumvit very much. There are better payments in Beirut after an Israeli blitz. -
Bangkok Streets to Undergo Significant Improvements
RandolphGB replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
A couple of years ago the pavement along Sukhumvit Road from Nana to Phnom Phong was repaved at great expense. Already the paving slabs are cracking, there are large holes, it has been dug up again in places and it's a safety hazard. Thais simply cannot manage their civic infrastructure. -
Corruption is driven by greed and laziness.

Let's ignore racial inferiority.

This is pure greed from the bus company owner. Most Thai businesses keep all the profit instead of reinvesting in improvements. In this case, pocketing cash instead of paying for basic safety protocols to be followed while running ancient vehicles. Every problem in Thailand always comes down to laziness and greed.

Rising Baht Sparks Fears of Another 'Tom Yam Kung' Crisis
RandolphGB replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The idea that Thailand could organize what little manufacturing industry they have to compete with China and now Vietnam is absurd. They can't even get a visa system right, and tourism is their one goal. Promoting Pad Thai and elephant pants is about as imaginative they've been in recent years. They're fundamentally a very lazy, backwards nation.- 106 replies

You clearly have no idea of business accounting in multinational companies. Or the Thai Revenue Department. -
Tourism Minister Aims to Levy 300-Baht Fee for Visitors
RandolphGB replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Do you really think that airlines want to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars extra a year in collecting taxes and processing them on behalf of a foreign government? It's not as simple as 'add $9'. There will then be lots of software and extra staff resources needed to administer it on the airline side. -

Swiss man in Phuket acquitted of assaulting doctor

She doesn't react like someone who has been kicked. Normally someone would touch or hold the place they were struck. They might walk with a limp or have some impediment or a reaction of shock at least. Let's face it, Thai women, whatever their social standing, are not known for telling the truth. In fact, they're some of the world's best liars. -

Bangkok could be submerged in seven years warns economist
RandolphGB replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
They've been saying this for years. Before it was because too much ground water was being stolen combined with too much concrete covering Bangkok and too many high rise buildings. One thing is for sure. The Thais will not do anything until it's too late. And even then, money will mysteriously disappear. -
Top Officials Face Allegations Over Land Encroachment in Buriram
RandolphGB replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I'm shocked. I really thought Anutin was honest and went into politics as he has the best interests of the country in his heart. And the whole time he's been using his position to obtain state land and profit from the medical industry? No, never, not him. There must be some misunderstanding. -

Dissolution of Move Forward disenfranchises 14 million Thais – US
RandolphGB replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Thailand has been a sham for decades. Anyone old enough will remember how they smiled to the rest of the world while collecting vast sums of money from the Americans so they could use the country as a military base for slaughtering innocents in North Vietnam. Or how Thailand propped up the Khmer Rouge, gave sanctuary to its leaders, and then pocketed tens of millions of dollars in foreign aid that was supposed to be going into rebuilding Cambodia when the regime fell. More recently, they have been financing the Junta in Burma. Ordinary Thais = lovely, if somewhat simple, people. The country's rulers = vermin.
