Thailand Set to Recriminalise Cannabis Amid Expert Outcry
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In some Scandinavian countries alcohol, exept beer, can only be bought in state-own shops, and that has been a success in all aspects. •You must be over a certain age to buy there. •The staff are professional with great knowledge about their products. •You can trust there will never be a fake product there with additional health risks. •The government decides where to establish new shops If they make pot leagal, they could du the same thing with pot. The best way to have a controlled consumption to the benefit for all. -

We all know that alcohol and tobacco are unhealthy drugs, but cannot see why two unhealthy drugs should be an argument to introduce another unhealthy drug. -
Thai Boy Rescued After Father’s Abuse Over Religion Choice
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
The case is about one bad father. There is no need to include his religion in the case. The problem is not the religion as a religion, but this person abuse of both son and religion. Such bad people you wil find in any religion. No need for islam-haters to react on this.- 86 replies

Thailand’s Aging Population Challenges Economic Growth
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News

Thaksin Shinawatra’s Influence Revives Political Cynicism in Thailand
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You are right: we just have to accept the outcome, we do not have a say in it. But that does not exclude me from having an opinion. If it goes to far to the right we have the option to leave the country, but for most thai that is not an option, and for them it is a tragedy. -

Thaksin Advised Against Exerting Excess Behind-The-Scenes Power
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I know many thais that used to be Taksin followers, but now despice him! The way he broke all election promises the party gave just to save his own ass, is not welcomed by many. This show for everyone what kind of selfish person he really is. He does not care a bit for thai people and never has. I hope the next election will prove his downfall. -

Kiwi Arrested for Illegal Use of Fireworks on Thai Beach
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
I wonder is it legal when thais sending up firework and fire rackere at funerals? Is it legal when thais play load music at night? Asking because I never see any actions from the police at such occations. May be this is a law only for foreigners (read farangs)? This we can call anutin-mania among thais. -

Normally I understand the need for protection, but when it comes til thai fish, which is an inferior product, Thailand need salmon and cod from EFTA. May be not for the economic, but for the sake of health! -
