Believe me I don't like physical punishment and always looing for alternatives. As I did in a school I wanted to let students clean the toilets or wash the schoolbusses, but the head of the English department said that I could not punish them this way and she went upwith the stick and solved the problem( she thought but of course it did notl help) and students in several schools said it is n o problems as it hurts a bit and is quick gone. In international schools I don't know how they punish but rural school I am sure noting else is accepted

New car time! This time - the 19 year old son
ikke1959 replied to pedro01's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
A new car?? surely not, but a second hand one as new drivers have no experience to take part in the traffic and scatches and minor accidents will happen... An older car is not a problem and cheaper to repair.... -

How about foreigners who pay tax in Thailand?? That are not tourists...and so should be not charged with this entrance fee. -

Or else ??? what??? If he wants to tackle he corruption he should look at the tax forms the police fill in. If they earn 15.000 THB a month they can't afford to drive a luxury car, a mortgage free house, and so on... unless they make more money.. and where is that coming from??

Mobile phones I have said many years ago are the worst invention ever... Sure here in Thailand when people drive a vehicle it seems that they only have eyes for their phone and not for the traffic. No wonder so many accidents as there also no education of traffic rules. Not in Prathom school and in Mattayom schools. as soon as kids can sit on a motorcycle the parents let the kid ride even in 5th grade or younger, because it easy that they can go to the shop or to school. No police enforcement and no awareness of parents about dangers on the road for these kids. And than complaining if accidents happen and the Government that there are not enough births as the people are aging..... Sad for everyone to loose somebody, but the solutions for prevention of this kind of accidents is education, awareness, and law enforcement( and not by paying a small fine but fines that really hurt in the wallet)

Are consumers paying price for electricity mismanagement in Thailand?
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
All over the world Governments and bsinesses are investing in solar and win energy. What does Thailand do?? Almost nowhere we see solar energy, which is cheap as there is plenty of sunshine every day, but no investment and stimulating are made. -
Hotelprices are very high or expensive with an expensive THB even higher than in Paris. And than the double pricing is approved which will costs tourists too.. So yes backpackers are not the tourists they want, but on the other hand they come and spend money. That is a start. But if Thailand only wants the rich they will miss the boat.....

Don't worry the Government mabe approve a giant minimum wage raise of 5%... I am always wondering how people can manage with a salary of 350 THB a day.... and no payment when there is a holiday. Shameful that there are so many poor people and a few rich and the superrich are closing their eyes. No they are stimulating buying, go on holiday, buy cars and luxury goods, instead of give the people a decent wage to live with fewer holidays. Because who has a holiday of the rich will get paid, but daily earners get nothing. With interests rates going up there will be more problems coming. Change things to monthly payments instead day wages and raise to at least 10.000 THB a month

It is a good place for him, but in fact not worth mentioning it. 65th place is not at the best. Every sportsman has to train, and compete to get better and try to win. Every effort to become better is a reward, but how about a 64 and 66th place? or even the 2.000th place?? They all fight but only 1 wins even the number 2 is not forgotten after a while. So a good job done by this man, but in fact no news

Behind the screens he stays in control.... Remove him from Government as long there is no decision made by the CC. Also no Defense Minister.. -
Arrivals are not always tourists... The difference TAT can't make and understand. People went out on holiday but live in THailand are no tourists, but arrivals. same for business men and long stayers who fly in and out t stay for several months and go back to their homecountry and after a few months come back again.

The first move to better was made by suspending Mr Prayuth, but replacing him with this man out of 6 deputy PM's?? I am wondering why a country waste so much money on 6 deputy PM's a normal country would have 1. And this man willonly continue what the previous did. Same age, same thoughts, same unreliable.....In fact the whole Governmnet should have step down now and new free democratic elections, but the Army will never give up its control over the country and its people..Old wine in new bags
