Tour Bus With 50 Passengers Makes Emergency Run-Off in Loei
If he did not speed and changed to a lower gear to descent the brakes would not be overheated.. Just a lack of driving education... And than why did he use the shortcut. He should have stayed on the normal road, as it is known that there is a steep descent..

People’s Party Clarifies Stance on Military Amid Criticism
It is strange to read every time negative news about the People's Party and the former parties. Nowhere is claimed that they are anti military. Reforms are needed on all levels, but reforms are not anti institution. Or does it means that if you want to reform the healthcare that you are against hospitals and doctors? Or reforms to get cleaner air that you are against the industry? just as a few examples... I know there is propaganda going on to try to prevent that the People's Party will win the coming elections, but I surely hope that the Thai people en mass really vote for them. It is the best for the country

Five Rescued After GPS Leads Car Into Flood Under Rama 2 Bridge
The GPS did not do anything.... It is just a tool.. The driver who drives the car is always responsible and has to see where he is going.. Easy to blame on the GPS, but that was not behind the steering wheel

Sex workers are only for netizens. It is a protected job. Besides 8 foreign sexworkers will surely give this city a bad name as there are already thousands doing the same. The whole world knows that Pattaya is the capital of sex. So ehy worried about 8 foreigners?

Thailand's Border Economic Zones Attract 55.2bn Baht in a Decade
The Government has no clue what is going on in the country as it is outside Bangkok.. Besides that they are too busy with enriching themselves and making laws to protect themselves.. This is a prove.. Too busy with a piece of land and a few temples instead of seeing the value of cooperation with Cambodia

Thai Immigration Hits Back at Viral Airport Queue Claims
The queues are always too long. They know how many arrivals there are, but tgey open only new lines ofvit is crowded already and it takes 15 minutes to start a new line.. several times been in Spain and immigration was within 5 minutes arranged with a waiting time of about the same.

Aa work makes you tired surely the foreigners that don't understand us. Very welcoming Thailand

Drink-Driving Dominates New Year Cases as Bangkok Tops List
I totally agree, but the problem is that a lot of drivers don't have a driverslicense at all and if they have one and are not allowed to drive they will do, becausevthe RTP is not enforceing any law or take the bribe...that is why the problemsvin Thailand never can be solved. There is no working RTP or other law enforcement institute.

Thailand Tourism Takes a Hit in 2025 as Foreign Visits Drop
Good and with the continuing too expensive THB and the border issues and the upcoming elections there will be more going down.. As long as Thailand don't want to change things, staying conservative and control every one, it is not a welcoming destination anymore. Tourists are guests, treat them as guests instead as criminals or potential wrongdoers

Drink-Driving Dominates New Year Cases as Bangkok Tops List
The problem is that there is no police to be seen anywhere.. I just come back home and on the road a few teenagers without helmets, and no silencer on their motorbike are racing over the Phetkasem road, looking backwarths to their friends without paying attention to the other traffic.. and where is the police to be found?? Probably in a tent waiting till something is happening

29 Killed in Road Accidents on Day One of Dangerous Week
It are 50 plus 29 now... the normal 50 are not being counted as the numbers would be skyrocketing.. Thailand likes to manipulate things in their own advantage, so they can say they the road blocks and the safety campaign really worked..
