I am sure @Yinn will explain us how this is perfectly normal and we Farang should stop wingeing.

Perhaps "we" should stop whinging, what has the Thai system got to do with any foreigners here temporarily?

Unbelievable thats what it is, if you are seriously rich , this case proves you can get away with murder.

Once again the police farce show just how pathetic and useless they are.

What is a real farce is the number of people who claim that he murdered the officer.

I thought it was about the time that passed and not being caught.how many charges did he receive.One may have dropped but I think a couple still stand

He had one remaining charge, reckless driving causing death.

I wonder the final price that was settled on and how it was divvied up.

Most likely the family got the least of the lot, most went to the usual guys.

The family received millions of baht years ago, shortly after the accident and agreed not to pursue charges against him

If he had been some poor peasant farmer, this would never have happened.

I wonder how the family of the deceased feel about this strange decision ?

The relatives of the deceased were well-compensated and agreed at the time that they would not press charges against Vorayuth.

If it is so bad there already how bad might it be here... 

The US is not god's gift to the world, it could be much better here...Covid19 deaths ring any bells with you?

So the government will also be able to see when you are using the MRT, and where you go.

If the government really had any interest in the paranoid and where you go it wouldn't need to rely on a train ticket.

The use of fossile fuels needs to be stopped as soon as possible , the technology to replace them is here already and if the oil lobby would understand that they cannot continue to make their profits on the back of a suffering planet , they would invest in it now .

So you want to see the end of air and sea travel, personal and commercial?  The technology to replace fossil fuel is nowhere near fully "here already".

Cameras are used in Thailand!

Selectively.  I watch in horror as four drivers per change run red lights; clowns drive at 120 along Suk, slowing only when they near the bandit stop a the Ambassador, where ten cops idle away their day.

Cameras are used "selectively" in every country, not just Thailand.

Well,  Leo is a wellrecognized brand of beer in Thailand.  They are not clearly advertising beer,  but I think that is what people would think and that's the loophole in the law.  so that's what is funny,  how one restaurant gets fined because they "promote" beer,  but these big companies openly and freely promote their brand without penalty.

There's a difference between a restaurant illegally promoting an alcoholic drink, beer, and a brewery legally advertising it's bottled water.  It's not a loophole in the law.

Such nonsense, unless you can produce that "peace" [sic] that you claim to have read.

The term 'high fever' is poor reporting. I suggest that it means when checked using a thermometer the body temperature of ten soldiers exceed the acceptable limit. With all the 'rushing' no wonder there are so many traffic accidents.

On the other hand it could be accurate...unless you were there to supervise proceedings.

I walk everyday with my dog, an around here where i walk are a lots

of "free" running dogs. I have a bigger dog (bangkaew), but hes still young around 8 months.

They come always in a pack 5-7 dogs barking and want/trying to attack. At the begin

i start defending like shout at them and raise my hand, that worked well because they back off.

But its to stressful for me everytime when i walk to be prepared for a fight.

 

What worked for me:

 

Its super easy, I took 2-3 hands of normal dogfood in my pocket, if they come barking and agressive. I dont care and keep cool, i take a hand off dogfood and throw it around to them

like I would feed some birds. At the begin they was surprised "what is this, whats going on?"

But the first one starts to eat the others follow, they totaly ignor me and my dog.

(I guess they dont get enough food anyway from the "owner").

 

I did this for about 1 week (day number 2-4 they still barking but you will notice the difference, the agressive behavior will go down), now when i come around the corner with my dog, they waiting already quiet and patiently and waiting for some little dogfood.

No barking, agressive attacks or anything else. Even sometimes i forget to take something,

they dont care and be nice, they hope for the next day ????

 

Hope this will help you, have a good day

Well done for feeding aggressive stray dogs.

Did you two even read what I wrote? I already tried charging it and kicking it, it doesn't work - it backs off, but then starts the same thing then next day. I don't want to have to do that every time I need to pass this dog, it's not a permanent solution. I am not afraid of the dog biting me at all, it's attacking MY DOGS which are 5x smaller than him.

Here's your permanent solution, don't exercise your dogs there!
