Waaw a crackdown again for 2 days and than business as usual... Drive around and see how many black smoke cars drive around and nobody cares... Just a simple new filter and problem solved, but if there is no enforcement no awareness  and no need to change why do it??

Checking if tax is paid is more important

It is all about e cigarettes that are in fact less harmful than normal ones... But for the normal ones there is no witch hunt like for the e cigarettes.. Probably the rich and elite who owns these factories are afraid of losing their profits to e cigarettes.. Solve the problem with all smoking and make it very expensive.. People will stop, and the tabacco industry will die out

Where is the Chamber of Commerce for?? All businesses should be registered, without any exception, and it should be checked if they work confirm their contracts.. Illegal hotels would be impossible as all businesses needs an accountant, tax pay, and annual fee for the Chamber of Commerce, register in the place where the business is and in case of condos you only can have one appartment to live in and  if you only can rent to long stayers with a contract for at least 5 months, and of course announce it to the immigration.

There should be a permission given for a parking lot in front of you business, door or whatever by the Government.. and the fee is a rent of that space, maybe 20k a year... Otherwise people claim to be the owner of the spot nobody can park anywhere anymore.. Many times you see they block parking space with chairs or pilons or whatever, but the road is not theirs and it should be forbidden to block the space. The police should check if they have permission and than no problem, but agh I forgot... working and enforcement.. Not in Thailand

and she showed too the latest raids by the police in Pai? the problems in Phuket and Pattaya? the scam of foreigners and the long cues at the airport?. It easy only to show what is beautiful and peaceful, but the reality is totally different in Thailand, no matter where you go. 

Tonglor again... maybe a proper working policeforce that checks and do their jobs would solve several problems...Or change the police offers who are working there now

speeding on wet roads....Thai driving education and use of common sense.... and maybe even some alcohol involved and of course tiredness as it is early in the morning... 

Shocking indeed... just as teachers dress up like women in school acts or teachers who stimulate coyote dancing to their students.. or students who make copulation movements on music.. Thai education is one direction. That does not mean I approve this act, but come on there is so much sex dancing around at temples and festivals and everywhere.. Kids grow up with it

Agreed..... I wonder what provokes these heartless sanctimonious c0ckwombles to make such dimwitted and ill thought out comments.... 

 

....  A guy with three young kids, desperate for the return of his wife, worried sick, clearly of very poor means and the only comment some posters can make is to pass judgement on the finances...

 

IF YOU ikke1959 and edwardflory are so great - find a way to help them out... 

... Get into contact with the Aseannow news team and find out how you can make a donation to support this family.... use some of this 'spare cash' you have growing on trees... 

 

 

There is more about the story and she is found already

A new reason to keep masks on... The company will earn millions as so many people never stopped wearing a mask and now the Government start to promote again... It would be wiser to wear a helmet than a mask on a motorcycle, but that is too smart thinking of me 

She not much worth than 20K???

also cautioned visitors against public disturbances, including cigarette smoking, cannabis use, and alcohol consumption in public spaces.

What are public spaces??? alcohol consumption in a bar.. is a bar a public space?? smoking cigarettes on the streets?? is that a public space?? and how about the netizens? They are all without sins??

What are these youngster doing on the street so early in the morning??? Where is the parental guidance and why are they not in bed which would be normal surely for the 12 and 13 year old..

I suppose you've never been to Pattaya??? It stinks almost because of these described farangs there.

I have been there once same as Phuket but never again... Indeed to many creepy people and hookers and that is not what I am looking for or want to be associated with

You can't improve your behaviour? It's really necessary to show your big belly without a t-shirt at Tesco? And smelling like a skunk?

I don't mean you personally but certain farangs.😳. However many low class/no class here.

I agree with you, some people don't know how to behave, but  that are a a few the most people behave normally. But it seems that all farangs are skunks and have an indecent behavior.  

The Thai Pride is brainwashed in schools... Thailand is proud that they were never colonized.. but that also has the effect that they are not used to handle foreigners, other cultures, and other ideas.. They are used to protect their own culture at all cost. Simple examples are that nowadays still there are Thai movies played at temples, with almost nobody there to watch.. same for the puppet plays, And they don't care they just perform even if nobody there. And how about the every day messages on the speakers? Everybody has a mobile, and TV, and what purpose has it? What purpose is it to let cars drive around screaming messages about activities ?? all outdated..And English is not important for Thai.. even Prayuth once said that Thai will be a world language.. Nobody learns anything about history nor from their own country neither from abroad... Everything is only Thailand is the best, And when foreigners come they are being seen as a threat as they are trying to destroy the Thai culture with their ideas. This narrow thinking makes Thais proud as they show they can deal and take care of their own country. But it is the 21st century and by the conservative and protected  attitude they will stay behind of the rest of the world. 

Are the netizens outraged now too??? Or is it only if tourists vape?? There much more wrong with wrongdoings of Thai people than the few foreigners.. But in fact the only ones to blame is the RTP. They should start to work and check, and the people should have permissions form the Chambre of Commerce to start a business, with a businessplan, location and how and what... but there is a lack of everything that is why Thailand is becoming more and more messy.. The mai pen rai attitude makes that people can do as they want, because nobody cares about anything. This is another example.. Why did the school or teachers not file a complaint about what they were selling? Nobody checks anything
