The park insisted that the team had already checked for the electricity leak and fixed it. They also rechecked every ride in the park to ensure safety

Need to check again or get someone who knows what they;re doing.

Royal Thai Police disclosed there will be no reenactment of the crime due to concerns for the suspect's safety, fearing the potential for mob violence from enraged locals.

For once I believe there should be a case for a re-enactment, let them parade him down the street alone.

Desperation again.

Don't go into the woods.

Not so easy for a 47yo single father earning 700b a day, think about that from your Ivory tower.

500 baht per day?

Ched stated that he sometimes could not afford food but was willing to pay the dowry because the woman expressed her love to him by talking with him via video conference every day.

And probably 10 others as-well.

Ched explained that his girlfriend lived in the eastern province of Rayong. She is a single mother,

So why a dowry for second hand goods?

This move is part of a broader strategy to position Thailand as a premier tourism hub

Might just as well go all out and make Thailand the playground of the East, it has nothing else going for it.

Very sore point. The education system is inextricably intertwined with indoctrination. So any criticism thereof, and you're on thin ice. The argument can only end with one conclusion, and in my experience, it's not one many Thais find easy to swallow. Sooner or later.though, they will have to admit it, and embrace the paradigm shift needed to change the whole system. But we've all seen what happens to people trying to bring about that change. Some get bail. Many don't. That's the reality. For Srettha and other members of the hiso establishment it's a total disgrace that they can pretend not to see why it's happening, and sacrifice generations of young people's futures for the sake of one ageing one.

Well said...

That is the power of the electorate under a constitutional monarchy - to establish and regulate the authority of a monarchy by the majority of the electorate. As such, all citizens of the State are not above the law.

See the Magna Carta of 1215.

• "It (the Magna Carta) sought to prevent the king from exploiting his power, and placed limits of royal authority by establishing law as a power in itself." https://www.parliament.uk

Just the opposite would be an absolute monarchy wherein the citizens are bound by the sole power of a monarchy which is above the laws.

Note that Section 3 of the Thai constitution states that  "Sovereign powers belong to the Thai people."

And how is that power exercised? "...through the National Assembly (aka National Legislative Assembly consisting of the House and Senate), the Council of Ministers and the Courts..."  https://www3.ago.go.th

MFP is following the law under the Constitution with its anticipated amendment(s). 

100% correct.... but the law in Thailand is very flexible when need be, and we seem to have an absolute monarchy.

Sovereign rights of the people are often ignored, as is the constitution.

You sure this is the only “dumb mistake” he’s made?
 

Personally, I doubt it. He may well know people who can unlock phones and has provided a steady supply of them in the past. Just as likely a scenario as it being a one off.

 

weird thing is, if he had just given the phone back immediately , there would have been no disturbance and he would have faced no charges whatsoever! No such thing as attempted theft in Thailand presumably.

The post failed to say if the lady wanted to make a report or press charges against him, without that the police will do very little.

After providing these details to the police, she was asked to forgive the suspect and drop the case, as they believed he would reoffend even after serving jail time.

Ask the officer who said drop the case if they would do the same if it was their wife, daughter or family member?

The suspect also confessed that he specifically targeted expensive branded shoes and had committed similar thefts multiple times before being caught in the act this time.

I guess he thought the head covering and mask was enough to evade identification by the CCTV

In addition, the unemployment rate was better, with a decrease of 3.2% in the number of people out of work, which was now estimated to be above 410,000.

And if you believe those figures you also believe in fairy's, Unicorns and sorry to break it to the kids father Christmas.
