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..

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

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

Thailand’s tourism revenue falls short of annual target
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Maybe start with the banning of alcoholsales hours, allow e cigarettes, stop double pricing, be friendly and welcoming, just a few things to atrack tourists instead seeing tourists as walking ATM machines. Invest in expats and retiring persons, by more simple visa rules and abolish the 90 days reports, address reports after a holiday and annual renewal. Make long term visa for 5 years or so simple measurements that will do more good than calculate how many Chinese will come- 8 replies

Health Ministry campaigns to encourage Thai couples to have children
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I still believe that daily salaries are not working and there should be paid monthly. As for daily salaries with so many holidays the people don't earn a dime except army and government officials.. Searching on the internet seems that Thailand a minimum wage has of 12k a month, but I know we we can read that teachers often only get 7000 THB a month paid. and if you search more it seems that 50% is earning 88k average...So there should be possibilities to raise the lower salaries. What is the average wages in Thailand in 2023? Wages in Thailand increased to 15452.59 THB/Month in the third quarter of 2023 from 15411.82 THB/Month in the second quarter of 2023.

Thai students rank below average in global education survey
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I don't know for America, but kids going to school at 6 am because they have to go by the schoolbus to school and being at home at 6 pm also because of the schoolbus .. Other kids whoi special classes after the normal lessons and are finished too at 6 pm.. I think it is too much. Yes at 2 pm the kids in America will go home and will have time to relax and play, as here in Thailand probably in most days the kids have to do homework too. When will the brain of a kid relax? -

What do you expect if the curriculums are outdated, no progression is made to come into the 21st century but lot of times are being wasted to stand, pray, march, and copy..... No questions allowed and the teacher is the all knowing otherwise they loose face. Kids brains are overworked as many leave home at 6 am and return at 6 pm...with hardly an hour break in the afternoon for lunch. With 40/50 in a class there is no time to teach a kid, because what can you learn in a minute? I wrote many times already my ideas but nothing will ever change as long as the army and conservative governments are in power.. -

How can you raise kids with only barely 400 THB a day??? Kids cost money, for school, food, clothes, and they are growing.... But in Thailand they don't understand?? Keep the salaries very low and complain that there is no more poverty... more kids more poverty more borrowing money to make ends meet....start to solve the problems first -

Amazing Thailand.. In Dubai he never have spend so much time in a hospital -
And who will check??? RTP is doing nothing even in daytime, and the corruption will be rising for hose who do the job... Close at 1 or 2 am ok.. In certain areas with strict controls only in the weekend till 4 am. But IMO first start with the entertainment industry to check all licenses and see if they follow the rules before giving them what they want. we all know and read the last year about underaged people , alcohol abuse, drugs gambling and even sadly even fire with no free exits to flee....Let the entertainment industry first invest and follow the rules before giving them what they want
