  1. After the new police commissioner’s statement yesterday he must be starting to realize that he is fighting a losing battle to clean up the RTP, pull it all down and start from scratch is his only chance of achieving that
  2. House hold debt will be significantly higher than 89.6% large amount of borrowing is with unregulated loan sharks who dont report their lending figures
  3. Every other story at the moment involves a tourist getting in trouble for getting naked, is there a sudden heatwave in Phuket or is there a new desiner drug being sold down there
  4. No such thing as an ex bar girl just those taking a sabbatical
  5. Its not the fact that national parks charge extra, these are funded by the taxpayer so visiting tourists expect to be charged extra (not 00’s of percent). The problem i have is that private attractions think they have the right to do the same and fleece foreigners no matter if they live here or are just visiting, the signs purposely hide the fact they are extorting non Thai citizens in order to prevent heated disputes in front of other visitors. Tourism authority Thailand are well aware of what’s happening but do nothing, didn’t have much sympathy for these dual pricing attractions during covid karma is a bitch
  6. The government introduced strict animal cruelty laws but have done nothing to tackle the problems, when incidents like this keep happening and no government assistance is forthcoming then people take measures into their own hands which results in rat poison laced hamburger meat getting scattered in areas with offending dogs fundi g could be found if all dog owners are forced to get their animals licensed , photo taken of dog and then microchipped. 500 baht per dog and then follow up fines for dangerous behavior such as allowing pet to run or sleep in the street, untreated mange, noise complaints, dumping registered animals in the temple…. You feed the strays and you become the owner
  7. Why is a monk even able to use the welfare system. Isn’t self imposed poverty part of the Buddhist ethos
  8. Ive Seen old lady noodle sellers sitting washing dishes and wooden chopsticks in the black klong water near the old British embassy many times so thai netizens might want to worry about their own bacterial intake before worrying about this fool
  9. You drive down that road and thousand of safety first signs along the whole route think the owners of this construction company need to be investigated and made to face criminal charges as there is a death happening on a regular basis only makes the news now when multiple deaths or bystanders killed when something happens
  10. Cops are under more scrutiny with social media so now they just dont bother patrolling the streets for offenses as no monetary incentive for them. Then once a week they do big vehicle checkpoints to ensure their ticket statistics keep to the required level
  11. Problem i have as ex military we paid into the pot serving in any country the government saw fit to start a war with or we were posted to. Now many want to live overseas and live out retirement years in the sun and they are accused of being thieves. If we weren’t allowed to live overseas then shouldn’t have been getting charged same national insurance while we were out of the country
  12. Police laziness, hard for the public to know what is and what isnt an emergency vehicle at night when any moron can attach blues and twos to their vehicle and drive around, personally saw two food delivery drivers using them the other evening
  13. Are the people who invested that dumb? Pyramid schemes are hardly a new thing, they were happy at the idea of becoming rich at the expense of the people they were planning to enroll/dupe. Only started to complain when they discovered they weren’t high enough in the pyramid to profit
  14. Can get harassed for money by thai beggars?
  15. They have bigger issues with beach cleanliness than a bit of pee, get a grip of all the filth flowing into the bay from the city drains after every bit rain, if you are not providing adequate toilet facilities then what do they expect to happen? Business toilets are for customers only and they shouldn’t be expected to cover for local governments negligence

  18. So you need to spend money you may not have purchasing a smart phone and monthly phone credit, screwed if battery dies or their is a power cut, then have to contend with tech savvy gangs and individuals trying to hack your account and empty your account
  19. Sparks debate….. but nothing else will happen
  20. Decent paving is a waste of time as soon ad its nice and flat a food vendor will set up and force you to walk on the road
  21. This is not a sudden change in policy its been in place for decades, tou chose Thailand as a retirement destination so stop moaning about it now because you failed to take it into account. If you want the pension increases then move to Philippines
  22. William pushed his 15 seconds of fame , got mentioned more than the girls who were making the complaint, hardly newsworthy
  23. Viet jet will not be prosecuting the woman? If the threat was enough to involve the authorities and activate emergency procedures and possibly causing distress to all the passengers then action should most definitely have been taken if not by the airline then the respective air authorities. She made the threat and is immediately allowed on another aircraft. Id make her travel back by either road or sea as a lesson. Cant mess about with bomb word in this day and age
  24. If they refuse to blow what makes them think making them urinate will be easier, police can’t take blood so will need to be done in a hospital environment and i bet they haven’t even spoken to the health ministry to see where they stand legally under current thai laws
  25. All these rules on stall size and placement which will be ignored immediately until a pedestrian is forced onto the road and hit by traffic…. But now they are loe income stall holders not worth suing them
