What makes you think that's ground beef?

The U.S. male life expectancy is low due to murders, suicides and accidents. So that if you can avoid the unusually high numbers of those 3 in America, your life expectancy will be considerably higher.

How is that going to happen? China crushed Hong Kong dissent and nobody did a thing to stop them.

I was thinking the same thing. They have small, powerful ones that can fit in your pocket.

No, it is not. I've seen worse in America. Old man hit by a car and lay in the road dying. Not only did nobody help him, 3 guys robbed him.

This is messed up politics but is this Pita guy so stupid that he is going to get disqualified for the same thing the last guy was disqualified for? He should have known not to have anything even remotely wrong with anything he is involved in so they couldn't do this to him. What could possibly have been so difficult that he couldn't SELL the shares before the deadline.

Typical elitist comment who believe they are better than other people because they are poor. You should always keep an open mind to the fact that you could be wrong.

I have a pool at my house just outside of Udon Thani and we put a roof over it and in the hot months it's perfect but a little cold in the cold months but I don't really need the pool in the cold months and it is only for a very short period of time. I can still swim okay in the cold months but the Thais cannot, they freeze. Even my granddaughter, who loves the pool, can't really go in. What I really like is, during the really hot months, when you really need the pool, the water is cool and refreshing.

Looks like enough of the service workers to hurt the industry figured out there is no benefit to travelling to tourist destinations and working for garbage wages. What I find strange is that, even with these crappy wages, Thailand is very expensive. Not to mention, most of the natural beauty of Thailand has been destroyed by too much tourism.

That's all a part of incrementalism, they'll get to it later. It's like someone mentioned CCTV. At first it was well, we'll only be putting them in very specific places for your safety. Then, well, we should put them here too now, for your safety. Then, well, we need them here too, for your safety and then before you know it, they are everywhere. Things won't change overnight, cashless payments is only the first and most important step.

I voted against but as far as Thailand is concerned there is no stopping cashless payments in Thailand. The general population in Thailand won't complain, they just don't have it in them, and the ones that do, well, they won't be able to buy anything. Thailand is not a democracy and it is not a free country so this will happen as long as the government of Thailand insists on following in the footsteps of China. Liberty and privacy has lost or is currently losing in every country around the world and people appear to, generally, be okay with it. You can see the defeat in a lot of these comments. Considering the horrific atrocities visited on humankind by governments and large corporations in history, the general acceptance is astonishing. But the acceptance is there and it is real so good luck to everybody.

Are these the new boosters? The old shots are useless.

I really like Thailand but these rankings are just flat out wrong.

Agreed. When selling land or a house I think Thais just make up the price based on how much money they dream of having someday.

On a more positive note, 0% of predictions from these alarmists come true.
