Thailand Election 2026: Bhumjaithai Nears Substantial Win
Sad day for Thailand. Unfortunately, to me that spells more economic pain, education system continues to flounder etc. If the charismatic Pita had of still been around i think a very different result, but as the grubby 3 main other parties will all side with each other to get their snouts in the trough, its going to be very hard for PP to break the cycle.

Vote-Buying Concerns Ahead of Thailand's February 8 Election
Wouldn't be so sure about that, in-laws recently offered 1k baht and that was just for local elections, not even the big leagues next month. Just shows how much they stand to gain if they can get their noses in the political trough....

Three Killed as SUV Hits Motorcycle at Pathum Thani Junction
Clearly SUV speeding and runs stop line, but the sheer complacency of MC riders here is astounding, I would never sail thru an intersection like that. And being local and a known black spot...sad for the kid

Chiang Mai Locals Criticize Tourists for Temple Sunbathing
Maybe if a few more thais were proficient in English, and not so damn shy with strangers / paranoid about the losing face stuff.... Someone would have walked up and casually said "look girls you'd probably better find somewhere smarter to sun yourself" Personally if you in a g-banger in a public park in some land locked city in my home country you'd get a few looks... Maybe it's a euro thing with all those beachless countries

Italian Coach Arrested for Illegal Work on Koh Samui
I used to think to myself " gee falang just work in your own country for proper money, not grovel for it here" - but I'm really starting to think this protectionism is actually contributing to Thailands general lack of competitiveness and innovation. But nowhere near as much as the perennial political funk this country exists in

German Woman Killed, Husband Injured in Phang Nga Crash
When riding in Thailand you need to be constantly checking behind in your mirror and glance over shoulder, inexperienced in local conditions, and pickup driver speeding at 5pm in a built up area also a large contributor between fatality or a trip to hospital

Phuket MP: Revise Visa Policy to Curb Tourist Misconduct
Probably because the consequences of bad behaviour in Malaysia are much more severe, and less likely you can buy your way out of it . And they don't have the vice that attracts a lot of the riff raff

Pattaya Urges Red-Light Zoning, Cannabis Rules After BBC Doc

Thailand Acts to Tackle Baht Surge Amid Trade Woes
IMO the economy here in worst shape I have seen in 20yrs, and this is just another factor contributing to that. Along with successive terrible governments and ancient beaurocracy, education system etc

Two Lebanese Men Arrested on Koh Samui for Drugs
