  1. That's how it always done, target those lowest on the totem pole and hope to get them to implicate others higher up the chain, problem with that is at the moment they are just at risk of losing medical license, by implicating others then it becomes a conspiracy to pervert the course of justice and corruption offences which involve prison sentences if convicted, this also puts them at risk of snitches get stitches or (dissappeared)
  2. I use my horn more in 1 day here than I did 25 yrs driving in the uk
  3. Nothing will change except the cost of a police 20% tip goes up from 100 baht to 400 baht, I seriously don't know why thailand has to make things so difficult. If police were simply to to fine and then impound every bike until rider returns with a helmet people would quickly start wearing a helmet rather than the 5km walk home. Problem is these checks are carried out in the towns while the countryside remains like the wild west. I drove 20 km into town and back at dusk/night counted 165 bikes with lights but then 145 with one ore more lights not working
  4. Yes easy to do when you charge twice as much than other parts of thailand
  5. Can you get prosecuted for stealing something that's illegal? Can guarantee that the thc content was over the permitted 0.01% level
  6. Redbull case and now this, people aren't risking everything out of the goodness of their hearts money is involved, any investigation should follow the money and those paying should be in the dock next to the accused
  7. How come he has been to court twice in a matter of a few months, when that rock star committed an offence 8 yrs ago and he has just been sentenced after appeals
  8. Charges dropped because they thought they were illegally importing gold not drugs.
  9. It's not just the decline in foreign visitors it's the increase in thai nationals leaving the country during holiday periods and weekends instead of holidays in the country, the car parks at the airports are very busy these are locals on long term visitors leaving the country
  10. Quick wai and an insincere apology and that's it dealt with, how about a theft prosecution for both the female and taxi rider followed by the revocation of his taxi licence, if thailand seriously wants to get a grip of the taxi mafia then make an example of them so others think twice
  11. Isn't his company building the rama 2 expressway as well god knows how many have been killed or injured during that debacle
  12. These police must have sore backs after patting themselves on the back so much for a job we'll done! How difficult is it to arrest a foreign national attempting to leave the country after he has been identified, his name and passport details will appear on the manifest
  13. He got parole and left the hospital the next day, if he had stayed in hospital for another month or two then he would have had plausible deniability for his stay, the way he did it everyone now knows he was faking the need to stay in hospital and the medical staff were covering for him, 100% agree that the doctors should be stuck off and any hospital officials who colluded should also be sacked and face perverting the course of justice charges
  14. Safe ? What are the parameters? Safe from crime maybe but what about Safe to breathe during burning season
  15. Lucky it's not my child, I'd be at the school shaving the teachers head, another example of thai government employee with a God syndrome and think the law doesn't apply to them, the ministry of education stopped compulsory short haircuts at government schools if the school was still going to operate a hair policy irrespective of the ruling then letters should have been sent home detailing their grooming standards, if a student then fell below these standards they should have been sent home at the end of the day and parents instructed that they can not return until standards are met. A teacher cutting a students hair is assault plain and simple, they should face charges and dismissal and loss of all pension. Parents send their kids to receive and education not to be humiliated by teacher that should be working in a dog grooming parlour not in a school
  16. If you are going to be dumb and mean enough to destroy a condo like this then don't be retarded and remain in the country for further 2-3 weeks!
  17. These stories get boring so quickly, headline should read british tourist facing huge medical bill due to being to tight fisted to spend a few quid on travel insurance, astounds me that we keep reading these stories with begging requests for go fund me donations Feel sorry that he got hurt but he could literally get travel insurance from the supermarkets, with his bank account or online with hundreds of companies
  18. They bring their 1000 employees for a budget holiday, they will accommodate them in Chinese owned hotels offeringall inclusive deals, use Chinese owned tour companies, fly them in on Chinese owned airlines, 1000 budget travellers will not be generating much towards the thai economy
  19. In west health and safety regulations have gone to the extreme and interfere with businesses ability to operate, however as much I don't want the same here, something needs to change here as it's like the wild west and lawless, it's always the innocent who get injured or killed. Very least people need to have a vaccination that gives them basic common sense and an ability to see the possible outcomes for there actions
  20. She wasn't needed to be involved, her father ho,ds all the power
  21. Who do they actually ask if they are happy for these polls? Lottery winners perhaps. Thai people I wouldn't say are particularly happy they just accept their fate and have given up on the political system, the judicial system so rocking the boat and wanting change are just pipe dreams
  22. Typical thai police too busy patting themselves on the back, they had a secret weapon but had to shout it from the rooftops to big up themselves. Now everyone knows about it and what it looks like and it's best to wear face mask and sunglasses when it's about
  23. The owner did jail time for illegal hunting and killing a leopard, how many thai and Myanmar workers and members of the public is he and his company responsible for killing now? Seems like every month there is another health and safety failure but no serious investigation and stoppage of work only in thailand would this be allowed
  24. Sorry some of these people deserve to lose their money,
  25. Step 1 is to enforce the emergency light use, everyone thinks they can stick lights on their vehicles from coaches to grab riders. No wonder people decide to ignore them
