  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. Sorry some of these people deserve to lose their money,
  4. 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
  5. Hopefully these rules are not enforced by the same people responsible for the security at the airports car parks, they stop you to enter and run the mirror under the vehicle to search for ieds but they only do so on drivers side
  6. Thailand " do as we say not as we do" deserves everything that's coming but targeting a foreigner for replicating what 80% of thai riders do every single day stinks of hypocrisy
  7. 10 yrs to get to this stage, now sentenced so goes to appeal for God knows how many years, what a out there state pensions are they stopped because the corruption happened while in office? Not seeing anything about why they went to this effort to keep red bull heir out of jail, who paid them? Will profits from the crime be seized by the state? Thailand where justice is as clear as mud
  8. None of them did this out of the goodness of their hearts they got something out of it from the accused or his family but not seeing of them being prosecuted, taking a bribe is illegal but so is offering one
  9. Managed to get and print the foreigners name, but the son of a politely figure in previous post doesn't get his name in print
  10. What about the person lending the money? These were salaried employees? If it's quashed at this level of the investigation then the loan shark is either police or local government
  11. Could see the point if it was perhaps an all you can eat buffet but this seems a bit pointless, what next colour charts offering discounts for skin tone
  12. He had already passed so a warning was no longer required and to thai people a honk of the horn is the equivalent of the middle finger
  13. Good on her, the only problem I have is her telling everyone about her easy life and everyone should do the same, without telling people the process she went through to obtain the visa to remain here, how is she sustaining her lifestyle not everyone has the social media presence to be able to make a living, if she is "working " as a social media influencer is she registered to work ? Does she pay taxes here? You can make a good life for yourself here if you know all the facts, but things can just as easily go Pete Tong When did the DTV visa start? Has anyone completed the initial 180 days yet? Wondering what's going to happen about taxes
  14. This is second hand clothing! If they want to complain go after the person who manufactured it or the person who bought it originally and then donated it, or the charities that collected it and then sent it overseas. Problem is thailand lives in it's own little bubble and kids are not taught about the holocaust r other atrocities committed by Hitler. She is not forcing people,e to purchase these items, problem comes when thais buy a swastika or Hitler shirt then travel to places where it could get them in serious trouble
  15. Can't make this stuff up, one minute they are posting signs stating Israeli citizens are not welcome, then they complain that Israelis aren't visiting the area
  16. This is how thailand operates, inital outrage then drag things out until everyone forgets Multiple expressway collapses and cars being struck by falling debris. Things died down from first and nothing changed with safety standards so second serious collapse occurs Red bull heir that was allowed to drag on so statute of limitations expired on majority of his offences then the final one was swept under the table until it hit the news again and the house of cards started to crumble Police and their crackdown after a serious incident like a mass shooting then within a week they have made hundreds of arrests and seizures of illegal guns ( if it was that easy why wasn't it done on a daily basis) If it wasn't for social media detectives and local news channels running stories of government ineptitude forcing action so as not to lose face then nothing would get done here
  17. Needs to a serious safety review of this company and its operating procedures, the whole route has safety first signs plastering the bollards, if safety is their first priority hate to be involved in anything they think as less important. We hear about these big incidents where there are multiple deaths and serious injury casualties, this is 3rd case I'm aware of but how many single case deaths have occurred that are not deemed as important have there been since this project started.. what year are we on 10+. They moan constantly about the smog in bkk but build another expressway into the capital, high speed train with multiple park and ride car parks would have been a better option
  18. Not condoning their actions but people can only be prosecuted under the current laws, if the laws aren't considered serious enough by thai netizens only they have voting rights during elections to get things changed, the problem is these people want foreigners to be punished more severely than locals committing the same offences, reckless driving happens in every street of every province on a daily basis if they jailed every one who is guilty 75% of the population would be behind bars. Knife offence seems bit lenient but again if that's the thai law it's the thai people that need to change it.
  19. Can't see anything good coming from this,
  20. Hire more staff then you just sold the embassy grounds and made a tidy sum of money,
  21. This looks very prestigious compared to pictures of typical inmate accommodation I have seen 50 to a cell all crammed together. This must be the vip section for those contributing to the prison service benevolent fund
  22. Little said about how this dodgy dealing was made possible and the government officials who made it possible, jail time and confiscation of property of anyone found guilty of corruption at the land office so the demolition is not at public expense
  23. So are we to expect another bombing campaign like in 2015 when they did the same type of deportations and several bombs were detonated in Thailand including the erawan shrine bomb which left 20 dead and 125 injured... thai government has the memory of a goldfish
  24. What's a good and bad tourist? You build a city like pattaya on the back of booze and prostitution then moan when the tourists that arrive are seeking just that, every other shop is a bar, weed shop or indian restaurant. If you want "quality tourists" then clean up the city to make it less appealing, but remember people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, clean up the brown mafia, clean the beaches, stop long term scams like the jet skis, stop building until you have adequate drainage to prevent flooding
