PM spars with Move Forward MP during censure debate
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
again section 112.....That is his weapon if he doesn't like things..But the person who is protected said that he did not want people punished by section 112..... Why is Mr Prayuth it using than so much? With respect and mutual understanding a lot of things could be solved, Mr Prayuth can't have any critics or he feels terribly attacked -
Are coups not illegal?? Why is he still in power than.. He should be punished in court , surely after the elections of last time as democracy was restored..... But Oh I forgot.. This is Thailand

ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
A health minister who is a building constructor...... what does he know about health, never studied for it nor have a medical background.... and about cannabis, where did he get his knowledge from?? Has he ever talked with the Netherlands were cannabis is really legalized and how they handle it there?? I have more medical background than he has, but I am not Thai, otherwise I would pretend I knew everything -

That is correct for the liquorshop... but people have to pay will get addicted will drink more and more and so pay more and more.... and all the money you pay is keeping you away from being rich......So why do people who talk this <deleted> get a podium??? -
or keep your points with paying a 200 THB fine.... The deduction of points is very low and driving at wrong side of the highway is allowed?? And whta if you don't have a driverslicense or your driverslicense is suspended and you still drive around.. and how about overloaded trucks and pick ups??? It is not gonna work... Driving at wrong side of the road 3 on a motorcycle, no helmets, and speeding as they see the police... How many points deducted??

Immigration is a burden for expats and tourists.. They feel that they are superior and that the expat is nothing. That is why they treat is this way.. Look at the airport.. Nobody smiles, hardly speak English as you have to learn the Thai language( in their minds), changing paperwork all the time, let you wait after lunchbreak to go to the toilet, play on the telephone, take some coffee and than they start working at 13.30 instead of 13.00.. There is a lot to improve.. They could start with scanning your papers in a digital file and stop ask all the same papers over and over again...

Forbidden things will only attrack more people..... Just test it by putting a button somewhere with the sign don't push it and with a hidden camera look how mny people are pushing the button. So pornography is not for youth indeed, but start with a good education instead of keep your mouth shut about sex, because that will result in that children/young ones will surf on the internet to look for answers and see things that are not answers but exceptions

Prayut Earns Hefty Allowances For Chairing 52 Govt Panels
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So If I understand well, The PM and probably other ministers and MP's get a salary because they are in the Government and as soon as they have to start working and create or are part of of a committee they get paid again. Shamefl as it should be a part of their job and is included in their salary... No wonder so many committee for all kind of things are doing useless work and delaying only to fill their pockets.. And than the Pm dares to say that he doesn't get a high salary... No indeed , but many other extras he doesn't mention. -
simple answer ; NOT..... try to find a bin somewhere to start with
