Students and activists set to storm Government House over Thaksin’s VIP treatment
Time to repeat 1789, indeed.... They are right it is not normal for a fugitive who should be in jail to get treated as celebrity..while the common people suffer in prisons, he is relaxing in the hospital so called ill and maybe not even there...as no one is allowed to visit him

New year sees considerable drop in road accidents across Thailand
Of course ... How could anything fail here in Thailand? just manipulate the numbers and everything looks fine... Many tourist with huge spendings, less traffic accidents , injured and deaths, as we only count them who died instantly, later on the way to the hospital or in the hospital we don't count anymore.. We order not count every accident in every province and see... It works

Thai government cuts local alcohol tax to zero to boost tourism and economy
Not attacking Thailand.... but the wines here are very very expensive and hardly drinkable.. Never went abroad?? When I go to Europe I can have a bottle of good /very good wine for 15 euro (600 THB) in a restaurant, as for this price in Thailand you have chateau Migraine, because of the 300% tax...I am convinced that if the imported wine was less taxes the revenue would be bigger as more people would like to buy and drink it...Nothing to do with attacking Thailand..but Thais unfortunately think that Thailand is the best country in the world, but many have no clue what is outside

It would be much better to lower the tax on imported wine and beverages, as the local stuff is undrinkable

PM and his wife are worth Bt1.02 billion – NACC
I am happy to read that he is so wealthy and I am sure the workers who work for him to get him so rich will be paid a daily salary of 350THB a day.. and there will be no room for a decent salary raise... The family has already so much money that as long as they all will live never have a shortage.. but the people who are the ones to give him this wealth must be scrape every satang to get some food... Nice example

Man Dies from Stab Wound in Patong after Alleged Karaoke Fight
As you probably know sound pollution makes people stressed and with other issues maybe it was too much.. Working every day in the noise, and everywhere around you.. Try to find a place to relax... Even the temples are the worst... It would be a start to forbid the temple parties

Experts flag doubts over road-safety masterplan as Thailand braces for ‘Seven Dangerous Days’
That they sleep is not the intention. the purpose is to delay their travel and reason to hurry

Thailand’s struggle with informal debt likened to modern-day slavery
And the slavery should be stopped... The high earners, companies and owners of the country should stop abusing the people and give decent salaries.. Elderly with 3000 THB a month is a shame.. teachers or classroom helpers with 7000 THB a month is laughable.. and yes maybe prices will increase but must the elite earn billions millions are not enough for them?? No they shout they can't afford it, while they drive many luxury cars, have houses abroad, luxury holidays... It seems Thailand is still living in the time of a banned movie

Man Dies from Stab Wound in Patong after Alleged Karaoke Fight
The police believes a lot in Thailand.. better do proper investigations.. Besides probably the music was too loud and too much noise as it is common in Thailand. Sound pollutions drive people crazy... Even in a shopping mall there is no background music but it seems you are in a pub.. Complaining doesn't help as they have no clues..but it is proven that soft played background music will improve the sales and loud music will chase customers away... but alas who am I?

At the roadside.... hire a ricefield and let the people sit or lay down to sleep.. They are the ones who made a mistake no need to pamper them...

Experts flag doubts over road-safety masterplan as Thailand braces for ‘Seven Dangerous Days’
Every year the same story on New Year and Songkran, but nothing is being done by the Government during the rest of the year.. severe punishments, real checking of alcohol and drugs at checkpoints, speeding and lane changing. hold the drivers and show them a 4 hour video obliged to watch so they will belayed more as they should drive normally..and drunk/ drugs in the blood, forbid them to drive on.. confiscate the vehicle until they are totally sober again. Just a few things

Delayed flights cause passenger surge and extended queues at Suvarnabhumi airport
Thai immigration is always a problem, delays, or anything are said to make the problems, but with slow working officers, a lot of administfration at the desk, it will never improve. Why is in the EU or a lot of other countries never a problem But in Suvarnabhumi always long queues ... Last time we came back on 6 October and it was the same problem.. No delays no extra flights but a crowded area at the immigration.. and it takes a time before you passed them.. In 2023 it is not updated yet although they want more tourists, but 30 minutes to enter is far too long....

Alcohol Wholesalers Hit By Weak Holiday Season Sales
No wonder.. The Makro is a wholesaler too but it is impossible to buy beer or alcohol before 11.00 am or after 2 PM till 5 PM... Besides that the quality of most wines are terrible and far too overpriced. and with less European tourist coming and staying alcohol sales will go down. Reduce the tax and stop with the alcoholsales ban and things will be better. Example we went to Europe and a bottle of Porto wine was only 8 euro so say 320 THB. Here in Thailand you have to pay for the same bottle 1290 THB....4 times more... The greed of the tax the offices.. In a restaurant we had a very good wine for 15 euro a bottle.. that is 600 THB Try to find a bottle drinkable wine here for that money... imposiible.. all Chateau Migraine quality
