Thailand Slips in Global Corruption Ranking for 2024
dallen52 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I got one the other day. 128 in a 90 zone. Buriram road. (Its impossible to speed because of the condition of the roads) Absolutely rubbish. And 500 baht fine. But I see that any tickets issued in the last 3 years are deemed invalid. Because no right to appeal printed on them. -

They meet the requirements using agent/immigration services. About 50% are doing it this way and leaving thier money in a decent interest rate paying bank account. -

At least the police were on the scene almost immediately... -
Same here. TR 60 visa and Thailand bike and car licence issued Same bank account with Kbank. Was several years ago now, and 5 year licences issued a couple of times. You obviously need a residential certificate showing the address where you stay, plus it must say for vehicle licence... Medical certificate also. Buriram province. Nangrong..

dallen52 replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
What would be worthy news would be Millions of thai people caught with no helmets, no licences, 3 or 4 on a bike, underage school and village kids as young as 8, or cages attached to the sides of bikes with Granny sat on a plastic chair... They target farang because they have money to pay the fines...- 88 replies

As far as payment goes of course it happens. TIT. Normally a visit to the 2nd floor and some negotiating takes place. I know people who have been through this. Same the Friday night Buchao checks for DIU... A quick accompanied walk to the ATM and 10,000 later all disappears. Along with the threats of reporting to immigration and visa cancellation. Or 3 nights in the cells until Monday morning court appearance. They have a quota to reach. End of month and the pressures on to boost the coffers. As far as the cells go. That's a pretty good illustration of the conditions...

Pattaya Beach Swarms with Tourists; Locals Voice Concerns

There's no money in building new roads. Or beach front stabilisation. The real money is in doing a s*ht job and the continuing maintenance year after year. Plus the infamous envelopes. -
New Thai Police Chief Sets Bold Crime-Fighting Agenda
dallen52 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I can't believe they can be so straight faced when making these announcements... Over 250,000 active police members. You can drive 500km and not see one officer. Try to lodge a complaint and it's too hard. Try to get an officer to attend after hours. Too hard. Zero effort to increase bike rider safety. Minimum focus on road traffic violations. Plenty of focus on tea money still.- 37 replies
