and of course no ticket or receipt that they paid ????

I think it is not about the alcoholics.. It is just about the stupidness of this law...If people want to drink they do it and they bought already, It just makes no sense to ban alcohol sales on Buddhistic days as you can buy cigarettes and drugs freely. They will blurr the minds too, same as alcohol, and if there were no traffic accidents without alcohol I could understand, but people who drink drive nevertheless on these days too and accidents with alcohol are normal. So no sense for this ban

In general if the cops would only do their jobs, Thailand would be a much better place. But most are busy with filling their pockets, too lazy to enforce laws, with the results that now it is already uncontrolable. Examples.. Sound pollutions, nothing is done against it. black smoke and overloaded cars... with a sticker they get permission( sticker shows they have paid) let them go. No helmets, kids, and too many on a motorcycle who cares, parking in a curve in the middle of the road or other places which cases traffic congestions, who cares. Speeding cars they drive to fast for an officer on a motorcycle. Even at checkpoints they check if you paid tax but control nothing else.. too much work and so on and so on. Here the same.. dangerous situation, but the money is more important than the safety of civilians and community

What a serious crime....selling alcohol on a Buddhist day. Only in Thailand, not in other Buddhistic countries...KiIling, robbing, stealing, sex offences and fightings are less worse than selling alcohol on such days

Shows how much this party and members can be trusted

Who believes what Pheu Thai is saying now? the always they stayed together, but at the firt moment they can the break up to take over.. Now a so called interim Government, but that will take 4 years to change the constitution and probably will change too section 112. Another promise they don't keep, as they claim not to touch this section. The bill be paid by Pheu Thai

Pheu Thai are untrustful as it shows.. Tey claim not to amend section 112, but what will happen when they have the PM?? Or is it normal that this law is used to lock up children and people without a decent reason? The punishment for violating section 112 is much more than killing someone..and MFP is correct by not giving in on this matter. I hope tomorrow Pita will get his second chance, but maybe more MP will vote against PT now as they broke their promise, but the senators will be happy, although Thaksin will return now

high waves in Chiang Mai and Phitsanulok... as here in my province Phetchaburi, there is some wind sometimes, but surely not the storm they predict. Once a week some rain and nothing more.

Normal as there are nowhere bins to find and if you find one they seemed never to be emptied. In the land of no one cares you can this kind of rubbish everywhere.. A duty for the government and the RTP to enforce, but mostly they both are too busy with filling their pockets instead of making and keeping the country beautiful and clean.. And this time it are not the farangs to blame

No security whatsoever, and besides that why writing about the value of the stolen things? It will invite more people to rob as they see it is worth to do it and chance to get caught is not so big... Don't mention the value to discourage robbers

as long as there is fireworks all over Thailand it will be difficult to control.. Funerals, weddings, temple parties, and even to scare birds in ricefields are using fireworks/crackers/bombs... Police as usual no enforcement and freely available all over the place. Regulations and control will make things better,but this is Thailand, everything is allowed and no one cares

another crackdown with no results.. as seen at black smoke cars, illegal casinos, speeding, overloaded trucks etc etc... a nice word but they don't do anything

First wait till tomorrow when the CC will speak. A disgrace for Thailand and democracy to give a stage to Pheu Thai all the time. It seems they are the best, but the people wanted changes with Move Forward. Pheu Thai does treason, getting Thaksin back in the country and no support for amendment of section 112.. We have seen several times already that a Government with PT will end in a coup because of the greed.... Pita first and when that is decide he can or can't go further.. step by step, but they are betrayed already by Pheu Thai

First you don't know me or my background and secondly if you can't handle critics don't do anything, as nobody/business/ or whatever is perfect and without mistakes. Never heard in a Western country that a owner of a shop went to a customer because of something like this.

millions will come to see the statue, if you believe that. TAT happy again

Bumjaithai always claimed they will not go in a coalition with MFP.. So which 9 coalition do they talk about?? I am sure that MFP will not let amendment of section 112 down... Besides that it is still not sure that Pita can't form a Government as long as the petition at the CC have a decision. Can't blame Pita for failing to form a Government . It were the senators who prevented it.

People can't face the truth in Thailand. A negative review means that there was something wrong in the eyes of the customer.. A reason to pay attention to by the restaurant to improve things.. Only 5 stars ratings are unbelievable as everyone all over the world aren't perfect. But Thailand is more worried about losing face than live in the real world.

Tor Long??? Police and bars and now police and taxis... maybe gambling dens too?? No corruption in RTP.. How dare you to think so??

In Thailand you get more jail for section 112 than for real crimes.. section 112 can be 30 years jail murdering sometimes not even 10 years... law and order?? The rich the law and order the poor in jail for minor offences

No payment is no protection. This is Thailand Thai police don't do anything, only if they are paid..Or it must be protesters than they can come in action

You can't loose what you don't have.. The past 9 years were a disaster for the country so 1 year more or less can't do so much damage. Thanks to the dinosaurs senators, and the opposition parties who refuse to go forward

4 am on Friday morning??? It should be crowded than at that time

Electric Tuk Tuk's .. yes it is a a start...but how long same as the crackdown on cars with black smoke??? Why do I see everyday still at least 5 cars/trucks overloaded with black smoke, sometimes there is a black fog staying behind..... Idea's yes.... implementation not at all.. That is Thailand

It is the questions they ask and how they ask.. I think Move Forward has the support of the Thai people and they are also backing amendment of section 112. That is a really outdated law and abused by the last government to control demonstrations.. Indeed maybe they are inexperienced in politics, but in Thailand nobody has political experience .. Or do they believe Prayuth and Prawith had experience when they took over? Move Forward is a party that stands for going forward, but the army based Government will never accept less power. Therein lies the problem. Civil Government without army backed people is impossible, but MFP want these dinosaurs out as they hold back the country. Dont blame a party that has a view, blame the ones who don't want progress

They could not guess that would happen?? New Years Holidays, Songkran Holidays and now another 6 days holiday...would there be any difference??? Besides that it is very dangerous every day on the Thai roads, but on holidays apparently more lunatics as we have seen the past days, when we were on the road..
