Say what you like but the question remains, HOW? This is why it hasn't been implemented. As for travel insurance how can this be checked? What level of travel insurance? Who collects the Bt300? It's not as straightforward as your post suggests.

Are! The magic of ChatGPT.

AI can help society and AI can produce articles for sites like this.

Here we go again. Same old tax with the same problem. How it's to be collected. This is something that was never properly thought through. Policy first, how to implement it an afterthought. Going from this article this problem is yet to be solved.

Liking a country and criticising aspects of said country can live hand in hand and both the love and the hate should be allowed to be freely expressed.

By 4 hours in prison surly you mean 4 hours sitting in an office in a prison.

Thailand should have posters at entrance points telling all coming in that freedom of speech is not allowed in Thailand. Any critisism of anything may result in legal action That should be good for the image.

Re previous post. I mean the image is both rediculous and distasteful. Reference to what? Just stupid.

This is both rediculous and distasteful but to be expected of AI generated 'news' which are the majority of 'articles' on this site.

They did win the election and won it convincingly. They were dinied their rightful place in office by the Junta's non-elected senators. 51% is to form government in your own right but this is virtually impossible in Thailand. They got 37.99% of the vote which is huge. They also won 10 more seats than PTP. It was the non-elected Senators who went against the will of the people and denied MFP their democratic right to office.

Quite the opposite last election. The people's decision was overwhelming in a landslide victory yet we are where we are. This whole Senate process is about not having fair elections. Keep in mind 50 of the junta's senators will remain and who knows how many of the others will be "voted" back in.

Aint nobody been gettin rid of with this. This is about appearing to be legit whilst bolstering the conservative elite/military power by a pseudo or one could say corrupt democratic process. The only way this unelected govt by the people is going is by a coup. All future elections will be rigged in favour of the status quo so I can't see any other way.

Yep and it's completely corrupt from the very top down and the so-called govt. is only representitive for the corrupt elites and the corrupt generals. This is why Thailand will never Move Forward.

And this is why it's a farce. The is a house of parliament and those within should be voted for by all voting age people of Thailand in national elections (as it is it remains basically non-elected and non-representative). Of course if this was the case come next election both the House of Reps and the Senate would be dominated by progressive parties and this just cannot be allowed as Thailand would be in danger of becoming a true representative democracy and the power and corruption of the generals and the elite would diminish.

The new senate will be inclusive but only inclusive of those deemed supportive of the conservative military elite. No person deemed to be supportive of a progressive agenda are allowed.

Big Joke and high-ranking officers are summoned by police More accurately .... Corrupt police officers are summoned by corrupt police officers

It would need to. Last year was a short and not very wet wet season. Traditional wet season starts 20/07 this year which is Khao Phansa or the beginning of Buddhist Lent. Last year the real wet didn't really start until late August early September. I hope this year will be different. We need a long wet season. The build up to the wet what really does me in. Hot and humid.

Delete the word military and insert the word generals and this article becomes much more accurate. Corrupt to the core.

The old and the poor can die from exposure especially upcountry when the cold season actually gets cold.

He justified his decision, stating that it he was driven by the nation's best interest following orders.

For the last week the daily minimum (usually the overnight minimum) has been 29°C everyday. What do you think the average minimum for the week woulld be? The daily minimum alone tells you nothing about the daily average temperature and therefore tells you nothing about the average monthly temperature. Yes it's usually always coolest before dawn which tomorrow is 5:59 AM not "around 7AM" but I simply fail to see what this has got to do with April's temperatures. Hot days and hot nights. That's what's it's been for the entire month.

Of course any move to reform 112 is now an act to overthrow the Monarchy not to simply reform an anachronistic law that has been weaponised. The status quo must be retained here so the minority elite and military can maintain their power and wealth.

Cheers.

Point a. How do you think average daily and monthly averages are calculated? Daily average is the average of both maximum and minimum. Monthly average is the average of daily averages over the month. Point b. As it is the definition of a heatwave does not include heat index. Point c. As I said the monthly average will be up because every day the maximums are consistently high. As it is where I am the average daily high is 39°C and the average minimum is 29°C. Nothing unusual about these April maximums and minimums for my area it's just constant. Average for the month 34°C. It is the case though that this month is hot, hot, hot everyday. As for humidity, during the day has been between low 50% to low 60% but spikes after sunset. Daytime humidity here today was 53ish% and now it's 80%. Heat index has been low 40 to low 50°C.

Having a look at historical data for Khon Kaen the monthly average temp is up about 2°C from April last year. This is not surprising because the daily maximums are constantly on the high side with no respite. Monthly average for April 2023-31.5°C/April 2024-33.57°C. Bangkok April 2023-31.74°C/April 2024-33.05°C. It's not a huge difference and IMO can be put down to everyday being at the high end of daily maximums. Not due to unusually high temperatures. https://www.wunderground.com/history/monthly/th/mueang-khon-kaen/VTUK/date/2023-4
