ikke1959

That are 3 on this day... Kids riding a motorcycle and have an accident. Underaged, no driverslicense and helmet , and for sure no responsible parents, a lack of a working policeforce, and a failing Government who is not capable of solving this problem. Anyway... there will be more coming days... Songkran is coming

Do you know how long you can survive without any drinks laying under the debris and who knows how injured they are??? Apparently not... and you don't read the news too that there is very heavy smell of decomposing If you see the pic there are not many rooms where the hide..... But I will believe you as an expert .... all 16 will be fit and healthy rescued....

Good to see that you are proud to be Thai, but that you have no idea what the richest families are doing with your country and its people...I don't care as it is not my country, but keep going on like this and things will be far worse for the common people and rich will be richer and richer..

The people should not accept this anymore

Nothing can stop the grow of the Thai economy not even higher taxes in the US.... But Thailand is doing the same , so if they want to negotiate, maybe Thailand should lower their extreme import taxes first...Don't blame it when others the same as you do...

If it was a Thai doctor student a claim of millions would be fined, but now it is only a French tourist.....

Excuse already... the crane slipped.... nothing to do with the driver or so.... It was slipping...But I think it as usual the ignorance and quality of the driver

That was in the good old days, nowadays it is greed, low cost and inferior materials

So only for UK travellers??? if not why such idiotic headline???

On the Thai news was that an artist wwho had arranged equipment to help in the first days was send away from the site and that she was very angry and did not contribute anything anymore for help as as she said it will be rejected.

After 1 week there will be no survivors anymore.. The works are very slowly, as a lot of help was refused...

Trump has lost his mind, but we knew it already and still the Americans elected him. Now they have senile man in power that will destroy much more than can be built up worldwide... Anyway America will loose in the end

The alcohol sales will be booming this week..... People are not stupid, and than the cultural and traditional performances and activities...what is special about it as a whole year you can experience them.. at weddings, ordinations, funerals, markets and fairs, all the same... food, miss elections, too loud music and singing of persons who better could shut their mouth. And safety??? people will drink as they always do .. forbidding selling is not prevent that as people will enough at home and in their hotels.... The only thing that is affected is the tourist industry, as there is no need for this kind of measure if the police would do their job not only with Songkran but 365 days a year with checkpoints and check all drivers if have been drinking. Than maybe it would be safer.

They don't learn anything.... Once in my class a student in 5th grade had several wounds and I asked him what happened he told me he fell with a motorcycle.. I told him you are too young and not allowed and they all laughed.. A few months later I saw him sitting in my class with his leg and arm in plaster and I said to him: "motorcycle?" and he laughed and so did the whole class but he admitted .. I told that is 2 times and next I have to come to your cremation as it is getting worse?.. And than he did not laugh anymore... but I am sure he kept on going riding on a motorcycle.. Parents, policemen, and everybody should do something to protect the kids, but nobody cares..Every week it seems there is at least 1 story of teenagers involved in accidents... Ok it their country, so their problem, but I will never understand why nobody cares

It seems that Shinawatras family is above all lows... As they claim everybody is treated equal, than now they have to remove her from office too as they did with Setthra and others.. But again this clan seems to own Thailand and will be protected by their bribes

There can be more arrested in Bangkok in one building about 379 for sure...

Another example that Thailand is not a Buddhistic country...Lottery numbers are not a part of Buddhism, but Thais believe what they want... Simple minds

Buddhism is not for lottery numbers... and the Shins have a lot of money already and their kharma could be improved a lot....

Oh my God.. Phuket did not get any attention in the disaster of last Friday.. The most important place must now declare that they are safe, while there was no threat at all for them

Of course many buildings are being cracked or damaged.. It are the poor building standards and cheap materials used all over the country. Thailand must be happy that the earthquake took place in Myanmar. Suppose it would be in Pai or so.. That would have damaged many buildings and the number of lives , I don't dare to think about that

It is clear that the PP is leading and yeah as there is no other option possible to another PM of course Miss Shinawatra is favoured, also influenced by the way questions that are asked and how they were asked..But the PP will be becoming more and more popular which will be seen in the next elections...

There is never been a sms on one of our phones.... Not after 1 hour not till today... There is some work to do, but that will be for the next quake I suppose

Yes of course a print of it, as Thailand is fond on copies for everything, same year after year day after day.... Save the planet save paper but not in Thailand and sign everything sometimes the same form 3 times

Thailand and computers doesn't match.. What happens if the system is down or overloaded?? and why not an easy website that can be found on google instead of the tda.immigration.go.th/... How will people know??Communicate clearly with easy access to find what tourists need in all languages.. But it will be in Thai and English and maybe Chinese and all the rest have to find out ... Thailand making easy things difficult

Indeed, but you pretend that you know everything and comment on everybody without even knowing if what you say is true...Check with here in Thailand with the people living here and you have proof or don't say anything about others if you can't proof it
