Happiness to the people... in eight years not a big improvement....And it is a question who they asked ...Corruption more happy, borrow money more happy, paying back not happy, air quality.... not happy, freedom of speech and writings no happy, Phuket ... more happy....etc

my idea too.... and always strangely enough most accident occur at straight road, almost never in curves

Maybe time to get rid of the EC committee and make a new one, who is really independent and reliable, but .... this is Thailand

Rocketing, but not as many as expected... so in normal words tourism is going up again, slowly but up

Times are changing....... indeed not France ... yet.... but the riches richer and the poorer poorer is a ground to get problems.. surely now a real leader is missing....

He can say what he wants,. but who believes him, who borrowed expensive watches from a dead friend?? Another question that is more important I think, would the Thai people accept another coup???

I really hope that Move Forward will be the winners, but in the always vote buying and manipulated elections it will be probably Pheu THai and / or other current Government parties that will score high. as we have seen several years back too when suddenly out of nothing a few hundred thousand votes were added to PPRP.

They should do it also for the samesex marrfiage/ Civil Union Bill... deliberately delaying all the time.. and now again waiting for the new Government so nothing will happen with the anti torture law and several others... The sham of this Government

Who doesn't make mistakes, doesn't make anything

The man was upset and see what happened a policeforce of about 100 men placed the man under siege... No wonder tensions rise, if you are being treatened by 100 police/army men... Than again there was a long dispute about noise. We all can imagine that noise is really used in some countries a torture instrument, only in Thailand it is common. Noise pollution is everywhere, as said many times, but with a lack of regulation and enforcement more accidents like this will occur. Than another question of this story is why could he order so many bullits online? As Thailand wants to control everything, why not this?... and why 15 hrs? why not shoot him in he arm. leg or whatever instead of killing him? I don't care, as he killed 3 others too, but still.....

Sure you never stood before a class as a teacher

Ok mu mistake I am not a citizen, but a resident.... although not even that as it is after 17 years still impossible to get a pink id card/yellow book. Al the time they change ... first years not possible, than only when you are married, and than a copy of your passport translated, and now only a certified copied translated and certified by the Ministry.... I have given up and I am not registered at all.. but I pay every year my taxes here, they fill in my papers for my pension, they all know me as I live in the same city, but a pink id....... impossible.... So I feel I am a citizen correction resident, but not in paperwork

clearly no clue what you are talking about.....

What would happen if Thais are being double priced in a western country????

I am a citizen of Thailand now , but I don't have the nationality.... and I pay taxes here and I am still threated as a foreigner, with double pricing

Same here, I just ignore

I don't approve the behavior of the teacher. There are other ways to punish, but this is Thailand and believe me in a overcrowded class and sometimes uneducated kids, they can drive the teacher mad. It happened to me several times that the class was uncontrollable and that I just left the class very angry. I strongly believe that parents don't educate their kids in normal behaviour and that overcrowded classes with 50 kids or more are triggering bad behaviour. But alas... Thailand

Yesterday on a market there were e cigarettes to buy in several stalls.. and the police was just walking by without doing anything... Just to make feel good news I suppose

just leave it... and tell them that you don't pay overpriced prices as a citizen of Thailand

A swiss can't operate a bar as he needs the help of Thais and the RTP... More in this story than is written and of course again "look how bad foreigners are for our country", while in the meantime they scream to come for a holiday

this slow decision making country, that wants to be the best of the world.... Something is wrong

The reliability of the EC and Government... weeks they shout elections 7 May, Prayuth going to dissolve the parliament for elections on 7 May.. and suddenly they change it to 14th May.. They want to keep in power as long as possible, instead helping the country to go forward, instead of holding it back constantly

A bit of feel good story I think.... First of all a foreign owned bar??? In Thailand almost impossible unless you have the " cooperation" of Thai nationals and RTP. A 100 million loss because of this raid??? How come??? I have more questions, but no answers..

Thais and nuclear power doesn't match as they are not aware of the danger of it.. This is an example, after 10 days it was announced that the cylinder was missing, and those who had it were not careful, probably by not knowing. How much damage is been done already???

Only one operator with no license???
