Why don't the Thai's teach "drop and shelter" in the event of gunshots? Better to stay in 1 place rather than running around in chaos since you wouldn't know where the gunman was. Sounds echo in a big shopping mall and a gunman can come down floor(s) using an escalator.

How many of these police officers are on the "Inactive" list? All of them???

We got your drift ... you don't like rec. weed. Move on and let it go you are part of a small minority spouting your ignorant views. Several of the shops I know have already got a Med. Dr onboard and display their medical certificate. The shop owners saw this coming before this new gov and got ready for. If the law passes then they will just have to pay the RTP and will continue to sell recreational or give a medical prescription on-site before selling their product.

Hopefully Thailand isn't going to borrow the money from China as part of their "Belt and Road" initiative. Laos bankrupted themselves taking this pseudo "free" money and Cambodia has been going down this same path. China will get a deep water port in Cambodia from this. I'm sure China is looking at giving loans to Thailand for the "Land Bridge" in the south too so they can move in and take it over when finished.

Big Joke and others broke up the Online Gambling ring in July. It seems immediately after some of his industrious subordinates started running the site themselves after seeing how much cash could be had. That's a quick turnaround ... I heard from a Thai that 4-5 other houses on the same soi were raided too. These all belonged to Big Joke and he apparently rents them out to some of his subordinates.

Will PM Srettha visit the LM "lese-majeste exhibition while in New York to pay tribute to all the Thai citizens that have been incarcerated? Many without bail and some due to political weaponization of this law. It was good to see his Majesty's son go to this exhibition.

Here in Thailand where monopolies rule it will become just like Craft Beer where only 2 families can sell marijuana (for medical or recreational use).

He speaks well but US companies know his junta coalition gov can turn on a dime and another coup happens here. Plus Srettha has been summoned by Xi to China next month. US will wait to see his new marching orders from Xi. The southern "land bridge" is still going thru but funding is not possible yet. This project is China's way to "loan" Thailand the money and eventually take over the entire project. We all have more pollution & garbage to look forward to in and around the Thai islands.

Thais aren't stupid .... they buy better quality and cheaper product on Line & FB. Delivered right to your door.

Maybe Paetongtarn just can't remember or can't pronounce the operation. She isn't the smartest cookie in the jar ...

Same same as the "military reform" that was proposed by PTP ... window dressing.

Like the game Health Minister Dr Cholnan Srikaew played to get his minister seat???

Somchai wants to hold Pitha to a higher standard than the Pheu Thai coalition parties is all.

He will start with his "competitors". Then swoop in and use his own org. to fill the void. Wannabe Italian mafia boss ...

Why the discrepency from the Gov stated min. wage? I heard this down in Hua Hin for an older lady working on a "Royal Project" ... she only got 300 thb / day. Even the Gov states the current min wage is 300 - 353 thb / day. Why? Is the min wage for 6 days a week at 10 hr days?

Why didn't this junta Senator propose this under junta-Prayut's Gov? Why is she pushing this now? We keep hearing how some from the old junta Gov want to offer suggestions and become advisors to this PTP Gov ... why??? The Defense Minister even said he could call on Prayut and Prawit if he has any questions. This is ridiculous.

Show Thai people what this really means. Release the investigation report from NACC for Prawit's watch scandal. Release the report produced regarding The Boss investigation that Prayut said he would release and never did. Get the whistle blowers amnesty to return to Thailand.

His only break with Thaksin will be to cozy up to CCP / XI Ping ....

The junta senators strike again. How long will it take to get rid off the senators, EC members and Constitutional Court members ?

I think for Harleys 60% of parts are from China now. These parts get shipped from China to US then to Thailand as assembly parts (probably why metric and Imperial bolts are used). Sourcing was supposed to happen in SE Asia but hasn't happened yet. Take HD tires ... would be better to get in Thailand since ones coming from US are so hard (old).

Are these really manufacturing or just assembly plants? Harleys are not listed in the article but they've been assembled here since 2020 ....

China wants this "land-bridge" and will "loan" the money for it just as they have done all over eastern Africa (ports and railways). Then if Thailand can't repay China will take it over as they are doing now in Africa. The gulf of Thailand will become a bigger environmental dumping ground. Singapore has 1 of the largest ports in the world (along side Hong Kong). Singapore's port is very complex with custom software running where containers are in port, what containers can sit next to others (certain chemicals can not be right next to each other) and how containers are packed on ships (in case of fires at sea). I wouldn't trust Thailand to replicate this. I can imagine HK must have their own custom software as well ...

Triumph motorcycles are assembled in Chonburi ... Harley Davidsons are assembled in Chonburi too. These are also exported to EU. All models except CVOs which still come from the US to Thailand and EU.

Criminal offence for "defamation" is really absurd in this case. They need to define "defamation" vs greed / corruption.

Depends where you are riding. BKK for sure ticket for not being in L lane. CM it doesn't matter. Phuket it doesn't matter.
