House passes seven clean air bills in their first readings
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So good to hear seven bills passed... And now go on with daily life.. because nothing will happen. Government has saved their face already by showing their good will, but in all previous year they have done totally zero to improve the air quality.. I see at least 4 times a day black smoke cars driving around just as an example. -
Thailand aims for 40 million tourists and 3.5 trillion baht revenue
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They will manage.... surely after news as bikini bathing in Bangkok, passport checks on domestic flights, Alcohol ban for holidays and in daytime, RTP chasing foreigners to find something to fine them, ( vaping, no helmets, etc) and of course don't forget the air and sound pollution. No hope no live.... but in Thailand they don't have a clue about tourists sadly enough. They are only ATM's and even the long stayers they are chasing away with their 90 days reports, address notifications, and now tax payments... Thailand was the land for retirement, but because of the unwelcoming attitude they will miss the boat -

Will never happen.. Thailand wants to keep the people dumb as they are a thread for the Government and the army as their eyes will open and they start to think... They see how many things need to change and how the Government and amrmy are failing year after year... So talk about reform and change is ok.. but in reality keep the same..Best example is the no fail policy.. In my classes kids who didn't do anything in a whole year or even missed half of the classes passed and went to the next grade...Ever seen educational programs on TV? No it must be fun and singing and acting and screaming, but nothing educational ...Thailand people have fun...

Thai Restaurant Operators Ask Government to Unlock Alcohol Sale Hours
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The whole non sale alcohol law is outdated and has no use.. If you can drink between 11 and 2 you can still make accidents and so selling and buying after 2 pm will not solve that. Besides tourists on the beach or sitting on a terrace on holiday like to drink a wine or a beer while watching people... But by this law it is forbidden and so tourist are not pleased and will stay away, as in other countries there is not such a law.. Thailand has to grow up and make people responsible for their own deeds. Sell alcohol to people over 21 yrs old for example and by doubt ask for a id.. and a good working control of RTP instead of pocketfilling officers will do more good. And of course fines should be big for the sellers who sell to minors..But who cares about anything here? Minors in pubs, on motorcycles, using drugs, carrying weapons...and the Government and everybody don't care about it. -
Tragic motorcycle sidecar accident claims life of Thai child
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand News
That is what I mean, Thais don't learn anything and nothing will change...The only way to make it better is strict control, but by the corrupt RTP and other officials/institutions, outdatred ;laws as always passing, they can't never solve the problem... It will take a least 60 years....but alas.. ity is their country and stupidity -
Concerns after two foreign women sunbathe in Chiang Mai temple
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Chiang Mai News
Sunbathing is forbidden in Thailand ... Nothing wrong with this, but again just an example why tourists don't choose Thailand anymore.. It seems that everything they do is wrong.. Laying on a grassfield... inappropriate... vaping get fined and forbidden( while police is doing itself), pictures with a leg out of a skirt at a temple.. not allowed.. and list can go on and on.. -
Tragic motorcycle sidecar accident claims life of Thai child
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand News
tragic that this is possible indeed.. No responsibility of parents and /or teachers to let 5 kids drive a motorcycle and of course the lack of real enforcement of the laws in general by the RTP. So sorry for the wasted life, but it could have been prevented -
Nationwide informal debt mediation operations to start on Monday
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The people with debts are to blame for spending more than they could afford.. Nothing more... The poor will get nothing or don't know there is help. Today on the news in Khampeng Phet province a boy of M2 14 yrs old living with his grandparents in a I don't know how to call it a shelter of plastic and bamboo and no money for food except what the boy can get from a temple.. Happily a teacher is helping them now... A shame that such things still exist in Thailand..... And there is no help for them... But the ones who have spend too much are being helped again... -
Thai Tourism Agencies Get Huge Budget Boost For Post-Covid Recovery
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Is there a post Covid recovery in Thailand?? I see still a lot of people wearing facemasks and it is still promoted by the officials to keep it doing.. There almost every week news about how much Covid there still is in THailand, as we can read again in the news about the new strain... and there is still pushing to get vaccines or boosters.. It seems Thailand still struggles with Covid while the rest of the world goes on -
Probably never read this news before as you would know that at first the indication was high blood pressure now it are different things. I am not a doctor, but you can read what the disease is and what treatments are possible... The doctors will decide, but you get informed instead of not knowing what you talk about
