Chiang Mai Night Safari already tried that. Kenyan conservationists reacted with anger yesterday to news that a Thai zoo to which animals are being exported in a controversial deal is planning to serve an exotic game buffet to VIP guests. Guests at the opening of the Chiang Mai night safari zoo in northern Thailand will tuck in to a menu featuring tiger, lion, elephant and giraffe. Plodprasop Suraswadi, director of the zoo project, told reporters that guests will pay 4,500 baht (£64) each for a meal in which dishes range from locally reared dog meat to lion from Africa. Kenya last week agreed to export over 100 wild animals to Thailand, including zebra, flamingoes, buffalo, wildebeest and hyena, despite protests by wildlife experts and Masai elders. None of the animals is from an endangered species. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2005/nov/19/animalwelfare.kenya It should be noted that it was endorsed by the then PM, Thaksin, who visited Kenya to strike the deal for the animals.

It has always been circling the plughole. They fooled a lot of people over the years, but you always get found out in the end for what you really are.

That would involve proper management and supervision which Thailand no hab krup.

Unless you are a Thai convicted overseas, then a ministerial position in government is possible.

Surely there’s another coup on the horizon?

As usual and as is the culture here, loads of people would have benefitted financially. All of them will be connected, so no proper investigations and convictions.

Another loser man-child that is not in control of his own emotions.

By commenting, the Deputy PM is clearly influencing the process. You are clearly letting your own emotions and feelings deny you logic here.

If it works, a possible first step in an effective anti-ICBM shield as well. A lot of interesting possibilities for this technology.

Lasers will render hypersonic missiles obsolete overnight.

I have a hard time believing that it really fooled anyone, even the Thais in charge at the time. It had no basis in scientific fact. Similar devices were being sold as novelty golf ball detectors. IMO, it was bought because they knew it was a scam and could cream millions off the top of the purchase price. The fact that many people, including a former PM and the country's leading forensic psychologist backed it, and that it was continued to be used in active service for so long, is a complete disgrace. There should have been many in jail for this debacle, but as far as I know, there has been no-one ever found responsible in Thailand. The guy behind the scam was sentenced to jail in the UK.

But by commenting on an ongoing investigation, that is exactly what Anutin has done. 🤔

Responsible Thai media? Educating the public? Psychiatric ward in Thailand?

Thai people are dying by the dozens on the roads, and you are more concerned about your lifestyle. There's nothing enchanting about losing a loved one in a road accident. Pray that you never need to find that out for real.

When have you ever heard of a Thai with money and connections being fired for incompetence or non-performance?

Keeping the farang hater in chief well appraised of the persecution progress.

Wow, such a revelation! I quite liked his train blog too.

All foreigners in Laem Chabang should be investigated. Loads of dodgy characters working there.

If you don’t return the card you will be arrested and deported.

Indeed, however, it could have all been premeditated to steal his business and assets. I wouldn't put it past the devious locals to have set him up. To clarify, I personally know of similar cases. This is Thailand, nothing is ever what it appears to be.

You seem to take a lot of glee in others' misfortune.

Yep. I believe someone wants his elephant business and maybe other assets. Folk here can't see the wood for the trees.

You absolutely can settle criminal cases with money in Thailand.

Mentally ill? Hard to tell here.

What a surprise. TiT.
