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

Although I respect their believe for not killing as a part of Karma, there should always be other things be considered too. The not killing is out of porpotion look at the huge amount of monkeys, streetdogs/cats, that are also no can be killed because of the karma...But is karma meant to babies as being not wanted and that influence your whole live, because you are born and they put on a roadside somewhere in the hope some else will take care of you, or you stay with your parent(s) and got beaten up many times because you are not wanted. Is that good for your Karma? same in fact for the streetdogs/cats and monkeys, There is no food so they starve from hunger and deseases or they attack other people because they are desperate for food..... I think it is more humane and better for your karma to be sure that all creatures should have a decent life...Suffering is not a good life even you respect it, but better is to put an end to or prevent unnecessary suffering.

Anutin denies benefiting from decriminalization of hemp and marijuana
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
family always comes first in Thailand... Don't even need to see each other, but surely benefitting each other is normal. Hemp Marijuana, gloves, vaccines, oil, just name it and most businesses are all whole family businesses to help to get richer and more get more influence.. senators amd MP who give jobs to family is the same -

Bit late as the vaccine is working after 7 days.. and the holidays start on Wednesday.. and the next holiday is end of this month .. Than it will work.. But can people go on holiday 2 times a month and maybe a 3rd time next month?? In a decreasing economy by inflation, less tourism, higer fuelprices, and higher debts?? Any way the economy is more important than the people..In Sri Lanka and other places in the world they have been aware that their Government is not helping the people and they want changes. Happily in Thailand we have Prayuth who is the best we had in years ( according to him than)

Global Energy Crisis Drives Up Living Expenses
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
and the greed of wealthy Thai too... A lot of frozen pork in stock to let the price go up, export more rice and oil because the demand is rising, but forget to keep enough for the own population..Easy to blame the Ukranian war.... -
