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

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

Isn't his company building the rama 2 expressway as well god knows how many have been killed or injured during that debacle

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

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

Safe ? What are the parameters? Safe from crime maybe but what about Safe to breathe during burning season

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

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!

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

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

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

She wasn't needed to be involved, her father ho,ds all the power

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

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

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

Sorry some of these people deserve to lose their money,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Travel out of Bangkok mainly
