Ex-politician cleared of murder plot in Thai political feud
Well this would be nearly impossible to prove without photographic evidence if it was a physical transaction. I believe it's called weight of evidence that either convicts or doesn't. If the money and the phone call are the only things that can't be proved and this can be proved and possibly other evidence then the weight of evidence would be towards conviction. At whose behest was he aiding and abetting? One thing is for sure. The judge now has another Merc.

Former RTP boss and 7 others sued for reducing Red Bull heir’s sentences
The charges at the very least should be corruption and perverting the course of justice both very serious offences but nup, TIT. This is the biggest 3rd World part of this country. The system itself is corrupt.

Srettha Shrugs Off Alleged Thaksin’s Role In Cabinet Reshuffle
I think it would be somewhat misguided to think that it is only now that Thaksin's back in Thailand that he is pulling the strings. His puppeteer arms have been very busy all along. So busy in fact that he now needs one in a sling.

Thailand’s prime minister unfazed by triple prime minister’s scenario
Maybe this is all part of the bigger plan by the military/elites and more than likely another influence to destabilise parliament. Parliament is dissolved, fresh elections are run and MF or whatever they're called at the time and PT will have some sort of charges against them and the aforementioned military/elite will once again be in full control. Just a scenario but IMO not one that can be fully disregarded.

Thai government seeks to mandate graphic warnings on alcohol products
Doesn't work for cigs and won't work for booze as stated in the article. Labels are certainly part of the package and the graphic designs on the whole are pretty good. Getting rid of them will have absolutely zero impact on consumption. As such my personal thoughts are mirrored in the article. Just more nonsense from the thought bubble empty heads that run the show.

7-Eleven in Thailand Reports Record Income of 399 Billion Baht in 2023
Srinkflation has been happening for years now. I've tried to explain this to Thais saying it makes the product more expensive for what you get. Some understand but most just no not more expensive. Same price.

This type of amnesty was successful in Australia. It won't be here.

Thai coffee liqueurs. Name? Picture? I would be very interested to give it a go.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism

Alas not. Children have yet to learn corruption. They are the product of the privileged. Empty headed fools who are very good at filling their own pockets.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism
Yadong is lao khao infused with some sort of herbs and stuff. I got drunk on that once and had a hangover for 3 days.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh😔 So it's only for the rot gut. Very, very disappointing.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism
Alas beggars can't be choosers. I'm not paying the money they want for anything decent. Also you can see I said Blend 285 Signature. Definitely better than the 285. I don't drink that.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism
Regency sends me crazy. Brandy always has bad brandy more so. I stay well away from that stuff. The vodka is hangover city so that was taken off the shopping list. Hong Thong and Blend 285 signature are ok for me though.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism
Yes it is only the local stuff but they did say also imports previously (see above post of the article from Jan 8). Seems they've backtracked on the most important part. As for the local stuff well lets wait and see what happens and as for the local wine IMO to call it wine is a very, very big stretch.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism
I posted that article. Is was from Jan 8. See pg 2 of this thread for my post.- Thailand Adjusts Excise Taxes on Local Liquor to Boost Tourism
