Where do you think the prostate is?

Because it's all about people knowing that it happens and the effect it has on Thailand's reputation.

Apparently you're not a "real man" unless you don't mind your wife disappearing in the middle of the night to go drinking! ????‍♂️ This obviously shows some issues with their relationship that run a lot deeper than simply the going out, and they probably shouldn't really be together, but, IMO at least, there's nothing wrong with not wanting your wife to go out drinking without you at midnight.

She only knew her husband for five months? It kind of sounds like he had reason to object to her going out... ????

She may have told the police their identities.

Do you think America is the only country that dislikes the behaviour of Russia and China and will think badly of Thailand for supporting them?

Gee, I wonder... ????

Do you think it is untrue?

Not quite. They've shown clear support for Russia and China. This might seem like it doesn't matter, but it will have some consequences. If Thailand cannot condemn countries that do evil things, and even supports them, that is the reputation it will have. Not really. In the short term, for things like military deals and tourism, it might be beneficial. But long-term, it is only going to slow Thailand's progress in terms of having a positive global presence and finding cooperation from liberal states. It's quite negative for the average citizen also.

Does anyone need to tell them to do so? Or is it done as part of the normal police response? If the UK police didn't do anything about it like they do in Thailand, Thai embassies would be "calling the UK government to account".

So is it a thud or a crash? A few wholes in this story if you ask me... ????

That never seems to work. I wonder why they didn't wait the customary 24 hours to see if he would calm down and give himself up... ????

It's always been this way. It has nothing to do with the junta.

Couldn't it have originally complied with the law but that distance has closed due to erosion?

That doesn't add anything to the comment I was replying to. ????‍♂️

So she robbed a place where everyone knows her?

Is he not anymore?

It's just an affectionate way to refer to the fact that business in Thailand is generally controlled by bribery, corruption and the threat of violence.

With the gun that the bullet came from.

The speedboat operator could encourage tourists to use his services instead of those of the beach chair operator. You cannot sit in a beach chair and a speed boat at the same time. After taking a trip on the speedboat, tourists might also choose to head back to their hotel, whereas if they had sat on a beach chair, they might have spent most of the day there.

Can you explain? It seems like a dead child is a dead child, whether they drown or are shot.

It sounds a lot like some simply don't like guns and want them banned. This means their arguments don't fully make sense and even if one is disproven, they simply search for another.

"I'd like to claim that British people are bad because I'm mad that this survey makes Thai people look bad." - whataboutism. British people learning Thai is in no way comparable to Thais learning English. Thais learn English from kindergarten and it is a necessary global language. Brits encounter Thai mostly as adults (some of advanced years) and rarely need it for career success.

English will help a lot in those countries. Many people there will speak at least a little. It's a very useful language and most countries make an effort to get their citizens speaking it. Why lie? Just because you're sore about Thailand's score?

So keep the locals as they are because we think it's quaint? I guess it's good to put a positive spin on things, but this should not be something to celebrate. Particularly as the government claims to be addressing it and Thai students actually learn English from kindergarten, through high school and generally university. Thailand shouldn't be close to Haiti and the DPR Congo.
