Where's the link saying that the Thai gov't made this statement? There is no such link. But in the past when this was raised with PM prayut, his response was that it was in another country therefore not relevant.

Served 5 or 8 years in jail in Australia for drug offences.

Thammanat and integrity don't gel, never.

4. Time to time dole out freebies to public... You mean promise freebies / big freebies but never deliver.

Do yu mean "Can I introduce our defacto PM.......

Pantip now has at least 2 repair shops, both upstairs, near each other, both give good service, prompt, reasonable prices.

They didn't try, the students just walked out with the exam paper.

Good, Spain also.

Could be the small hi-tech item like a pager which gives the exam taker coded answers to the police entrance (and more) exam questions. Perhaps before that the exam guide books available at book shops near universities which quoted the mid-term / end of term exam questions for last 5 (?) years. The problem was that someone (not really familiar with the subject) had written an answer in the 'guide book' to each question but many of the answers were wrong. This stopped after many unis put a number in the corner of the front page of the exam questions pages and kept records of the number on the exam paper handed out to each exam taker. On leaving the room a proctor insisted on each student handing in the exam paper and cross checked it against a list. Thus preventing book shops waiting outside of exam rooms and paying students to buy the exam papers.

Then maybe we will see much more action from the Europe gang.

OIC, you mean influence digits.

Wonder when the tsunami citizens alert was last tested and did it pass the test?

And some / many Thais are noticing that Thailand is not developing, everything is stationery, creativity and innovation are asleep. I'm well retired but for many years I was a local director of an international management consulting firm. Doing organizational analysis I often commented to clients 'there's no mention in your organization structure of creativity or innovation and no management position specifically responsible for these subjects'. The response 'not needed Thailand is already very advanced' In the last few years I've asked my old consulting colleagues whether this has changed. Answer every time 'nothing has changed, still no mention of creativity or innovation and no management position specifically responsible for these subjects'. There is one organization trying to make progress in this rea - a giant oil and gas company, but there's a roadblock, staff appointed to this area have little experience or knowledge in this area. And as with a few organizations trying to improved the positions are filled by famous family, inexperienced, way too young folks.

Further, seems to me that trump is aiming to gain total control of everything in the US. Up to US citizens to fight like hell to restrict what he can control.

And being a son even a nephew from a serving / retired snr. police officer is a plus. I've often wondered about young cops who are very opposed to corruption / refuse to be involved in corruption or budgets, or paying for promotion or nepotism, or accepting bribes to get cases buried etc., can cope / can build a career?

No doubt you can, even body bags.

Quote: ",,,To enter government employment (including military and police) you must pay a bribe." Then to pass the entrance test there's often bribes or tricky methods to get the correct answers broadcast to the examinee.

But it's still possible you or any person Thai / foreigner have knowledge about that wages. Keeping mind that, like any country there's a big salary / wages difference across all jobs, professions.

Late but whatever.

I wonder what title was used for thaksin at this event?

Then you're not really naked. The shoulder bag could probably be used to cover the jewels if needed.

The time is probably coming soon where folks will have an implant which can be used for multi purposes including ID and digital banking.

"based on a story ..." Why is it called a story? Should it not be based on a report....

Yes there's tensions, but why? Simple answer, way less than professional recruitment and training, less than balanced actions in many cases, reporting often displays that there's 'holes' in the police responses and reporting etc.

There's angry people in every country. My dad had many episodes of strong anger all of his life but his 8 brothers and 1 sister even worse, Even more worse dad's mother and father (my grandparents), many incidents of severe domestic violence and severe verbal abuse. This was all in a very isolated mining area where the men are tough, simple incidents very often turned into severe violence and abuse.
