And the evidence is? Please support your comment by posting examples of why the evidence is stacking up that Trump hasn't read the Constitution. I've linked the US constitution so no excuses or is your comment simply an emotive one with zero basis?

Thailand's Global Education Ranking Sparks Controversy and Scrutiny
dinsdale replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Most are good kids, some are lazy and disruptive and some are "special". Shutting down schools for covid IMHO was a huge mistake and has made kids lazier and even more addicted to their phones. Education's a big problem here because although huge amounts of money gets poured into the system a good deal of it ends up in pockets. -
Do I Have to Carry My Passport
dinsdale replied to NickyLouie's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Just keep a pic of your info page and your visa page on your phone. If it's official business, travelling or staying somewhere then you'll need your passport. -
Thailand Ends Corporal Punishment, Ushers in New Era for Kids
dinsdale replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
This crops up every now and again. Teachers still whack students and always the same ones and things don't change. Hit them or not some students will always be bad eggs. Why is a deeper sociological rabbit hole hole not necessary to go down here but they know it doesn't matter because they CANNOT FAIL. The reasons for why teachers hit students is also another rabbit hole. Some get fed up, some like it and some simply see it as discipline. Personally I cannot. I'm a foreign teacher and could face instant dismissal if a parent complained. -

Being literate educationally is much more than being able to read and write. The govt. is only using this base criteria 'cause it looks good. Fools no one except the fools. -

I know. I've explained many times that this was Thaksin's take on UNESCO's policy of no student gets left behind. An absolute corruption of the intention of this policy. -

Be a good one on here. Critical thinking? IMHO there's a fair few posters on that don't actually know what this means and have no ability to do this. Posting lot's of negative emojis isn't critical thinking guys. -

Agree. As an example in one level I taught this year of three classes, two classes 35 students in each, 8 students passed my final exam in one class and the other 12. The other class of the three consisting of 40 students, the good students, everyone passed and the majority passed well. Officially all 110 passed. -

Thailand "killed" O-net temporarily. At my school M3/Grade 9 and P6/Grade 6 are taken out of all lessons in January to study for O-net for one month. This isn't about education. It's about advertising. -

Don't waste your money. I said it wouldn't be 300%. I was correct. It's zero. In Thailand, electric vehicles (EVs) imported from China, under the China-ASEAN Free Trade Agreement, enjoy a 0% import duty. (AI) -
Bangkok Gears Up for 2028 Formula One Grand Prix with New Plans
dinsdale replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), also known as a Letter of Intent (LOI) or Letter of Agreement (LOA), is a formal, yet non-binding agreement between two or more parties that outlines their intentions, roles, and objectives, serving as a mutual acknowledgment of potential outcomes and processes. (AI def.) So talks are happening. That's that. MOU is most definitely no done deal. 2028! 3 years from now. What are these guys on? -
Did I say I had evidence of illegals voting? No. Don't be ridiculous. I said in CA ID wasn't required to cast a vote. This of course opens the way for illegals to vote. https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-bill-rights If you are a newly registered voter, you may be asked to provide appropriate identification or other documentation according to federal law. But please note that every individual has the right to cast a provisional ballot even if he or she does not provide the documentation.

Absolute dribble. Rich or poor if you're a citizen of the US you can vote. If you're not you shouldn't be allowed to. Tell me what's wrong with that.

I may be wrong on this one I agree. I think by literacy they are simply using the base standard of being able to read and write which basically doesn't reflect educational standards. -

Poppy cock. Finland with one of the best education systems in the world has a 100% literacy rate for ages over 15. Anyone who believes this 99% figure is deluded and those sprouting it are complete liars.- 110 replies

The most incompetant US admin in history has been elected
dinsdale replied to 3NUMBAS's topic in Political Soapbox
It was once the case that the left would accuse the right of being uneducated idiots. You're post is an excellent example of how the political divide has been blurred. IMHO the majority of idiots are now now firmly on Team Syndrome.
