  1. Minimum wage should be 15.000 THB a month for working days not more 25 and 8 hours a day... No bullsh..t that it is too expensive, or impossible. or whatever.. People are still treated as slaves here in Thailand. Long working days 7 days a week and for 350 THB a day?? and the companies and CEO and Government earn millions...and yes, who plays more on the cellphone instead of doing their job , is responsible for him/herself when they are vfired. Probably when you work you can't have time to play the cellphone. If there is so much time in your job, that you can play the phone than there is not enough work for you
  2. They are so well educated that even simple things seems to be difficult...
  3. But it is THai justice and that is something different than normal justice....
  4. No news.. I have said it already months ago...with a conservative Government that only does pocketfilling, and nothing to improve tourism, infrastructure, double pricings, and manipulated THB it is no wonder that it will go backwarts... and of course blame the pandemic but other countries had the same and do better
  5. NOthing to be ready for.. just close the doors two hours later
  6. On Sunday morning I usually do the same... when the alarm goes of I wake up, switch of the clock and turn myself around to sleep further.. Same with the education problems in Thailand.. They are awake now, but after New Year everything will go on as it was and will be, as the government don't want educated people. They know and see things and that is a threat to them clock
  7. Probably with 6 THB a day extra they could have an extra drink on an extra holiday.. Soft power, to boost the economy
  8. Maybe he can start with a working and instructed non corrupt policeforce. Now only some places at high ways have tents, crazy drivers pass nothing happens, no helmets no problems and black smoke they don't see. Check everybody not for tax but drivers licence, alcohol test and put cameras a 500m before the checkpoints so they can be stopped and fined. 24hrs not one hour a day
  9. Ok, but you had a problem.. I don't have yet any, but in my family p, butlenty deadly heart attacks .. even after check up, as the doctor said you can't prevent it. I only wanted to know if my heart is still in a good condition by a stresstest or so... I don't want to go into the mill of many examinations etc and with a end result of nothing
  10. According to the hospital I must have a heart attack...so pain in my chest, sweating, dizzy and/or radiation in my arm... Never mind they want to do it...as you can't prevent it anyway to get a heart problem
  11. i went to a state hospital for a heart checkup. I told them I would pay for it, but the answer was it was impossible.. Only when you have a heartproblem and being sent to the hospital by a doctor I could do it.. No prevention.. therefore I have to go to a private hospital
  12. told to or suggested?? he should in jail and nowhere else... How can justice be believable in Thailand?... Jail only for the poor but the real culprits are walking freely around
  13. I never will understand why they have to to carry a Thai flag, just like kids
  14. No clue to solve the problem and to be attractive again for foreign tourists. So local tourist more public holidays more borrowing and loan to show how wealthy the middle class is to go on holiday and more debts.. TAT why are they needed? they have no clue come with fake numbers and ideas that are stupid. And they call it a masterplan..
  15. Camping?? What is that? do you have a permit for it?? O no? than a fine, because you are a foreigner
  16. My passport has biometric chip for some years already. However I went several times out Thailand and came back, and everytime they need my fingerprints and photo.. Should i believe that these machine are working? Even with renewal your visa they need new pictures at the office every year and of course a paper pic,,
  17. Freeze the giant salaries of the company bosses.... until they are willing to pay a bit more for the ones who work and in facto give them their great salaries and profits
  18. stop with 40/50 students in a class, stop with all kind of activities as Wai Kru, marching, practicing for every event.,and more of all stop with all extra classes after school...Students have to go home and relax instead of studying after school and in the weekends
  19. stupidity without borders... What will happen if the "drunk" person is not willing to go to the area? How about the checking? Now a lot of entertainment venues are not following the rules already, as we could read underaged visitors, not respecting closing hours, no or correct licenses. even illegal gambling etc.. First make that the entertainment venues follow the rules and than implement other ones.. And of course there should be a strict control by the police, but that is a dream
  20. Yesterday they urged the public to wear masks again... Now it is fake news??
  21. the 3rd in a week time... Thailand can use it as soft power maybe?? Come and enjoy a possible accident if you travel by bus or in cars??
  22. Everything must be celebrated... a lot of wasted money, in other countries, they just are happy and announce it and finished, but here in " happy" THailand there is a ceremony needed
  23. They never stopped wearing masks... so no need to urge them wear them again
