  1. Probably the first time stabbed with a blade. Usually it's the old mutton dagger..
  2. They should get off their backsides and put the phone down. And practice active policing. A new set of infringement notices they should enforce.
  3. Quite common in LOS. You can put your head in the sand and ignore it. But.. The daughter at university in Buriram and the teachers have money boxes on thier desks. And yes you have to contribute. Plus assignments that require extra payments that obviously go in the money box. Pay or fail.. Add teachers that teach subjects with no reference to what's set in exams. Sub scale payments to less than academic qualified teachers.. As others said. Nobody fails..
  4. A swift kicking in the nether region and lifelong ban from teaching. Loss of pension and medical benefits.
  5. I actually saw an old thai chap with an empty ice cream container on his head driving along yesterday. The mind boggles.
  6. Lucky if they have mirrors. As for manoeuvres. Its a last second decision. Undertake Overtake. Drive on pavement. Drive on wrong side of the road
  7. Its the law. For everyone, not just farang because they can pay the fine. (Usually cash and no receipts) Its been said so many times before and to be honest they are like Lemmings rushing into the rivers to drown. Ok, sanity check time. Helmet must be worn. Its the law. Multiple people on a bike. NO Kids 4 on a bike. NO. Side cars attached to a bike and Granny in a plastic chair. NO. Loud exhaust systems. NO. Lights on bikes. YES. Stopping at traffic lights. YES. Stop at pedestrian crossing. YES. Actually having a licence to drive. YES. Registration and insurance. YES. Someone else taking licence test. NO. Giving way. YES. Use indicators. YES. Stopping at an accident. YES. Brand new bikes sold without registration or insurance. NO. There's a definite pattern here.!! See where I'm going? 250,000 "active" police sat in little offices phones in hand. You are lucky to see a police officer at night. Even harder to get one to attend. Time for serious changes.
  8. We've been here before. Last time invoked horrendous terms for entry and short term stays in Thailand. I personally had 4 hotel quarantines. Numerous expensive covid tests Locked out 9 months because I didn't have an OA just a non O and extension. Thai airline flights lost. Surely we have learned enough? A vaccine isn't for everyone. Believers or non believers. I did my bit. Shots and boosters. Now the government should be introducing free vaccine shots of reputable brands for anyone who wants to have. Sadly nothing is free in Thailand. But the economic impacts are already being seen Introducing free shots would be a major event in the eyes of the tourism world.
  9. Nothing will happen. Same as teachers cutting students hair. Or the money boxes on teachers desks. (Contributions expected) (Helps the child's grades) Or universities employing under qualified staff for lesser salaries.
  10. Can see a lot of tea money exchange hands soon.
  11. A lot of knockers to my last post. Non believers. I've had 6 jabs. But had it 2 times. Very mild cold like. So there's some benefits in the vaccine. IMO.
  12. local police reportedly declined to intervene, citing the incident's ties to prostitution. This inaction allowed the alleged perpetrator to escape, Err excuse me. Doesn't everything here. Probably on the book.
