google and see how Gay Marriage has boosted the economy in the countries who have it https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2019/6/26/the-economic-impact-of-same-sex-marriage https://edition.cnn.com/2020/06/02/economy/same-sex-weddings-3-billion-trnd/index.html

they live by the day in Thailand.. never a view for the problems coming and when they occur, they will see how and what they can do....Nothing can be planned here..Not only for the flooding but many other examples too.. Look at Digital wallet.. They still don't know how to do it.. cash, partly now and next year, on the cellphone... And they claim they are the hub of almost everything

Complaining complaining, but no investments, idea's or promotions.. It is easy to find cheap good hotels, but mid price hotels sometimes are too expensive for what they offer and you better are off to stay in a cheaper hotel. Holiday season in the Europe is over, the Thai Baht is again too expensive, the Western countries are discouraging travel with planes, Airtickest on long destinations are expensive and with all the scam in Thailand for taxi fares, police fines, and tourist attractions, and the bad air quality it is no wonder that tourist are looking further than coming to Thailand.. There is a lot of work to do and surely not start with more taxes as all imported goods are already very high taxed, see in the supermarkets the prices of imported articles and wines and beers for example..

She is a ventriloquist.... and we all know who is holding her

They are so very wrong.. It will be a burden for many years to pay back the loans and will cost investments.. They should push the same sex marriage bill to be signed asap as in all countries all over the world the economy has a lot of benefit of it. Many gays in Thailand are waiting to get marrried, which will stimulate the local businesses, as for dinners, shows, music, flowers, gifts, clothes, and many more... but it is still not signed and published for an unknown reason.. And after it is signed there is still a 4 month waiting so nothing that can boost the economy can be done before June next year... And that is much cheaper than give everyone 10k

was there not something with a donkey and a stone?

Big C with Big noise.. I never go there anymore as the music too loud and on every corner a blaster announcing prices of the articles nearby.. Silly situations ... just as people can't read how much a T shirt cost, or underwear or a bottle of coke or whatever.. They chase people away instead of creating a quiet atmosphere were people stay longer to relax and buy morem as many studies have proved. Here in Thailand the louder the music and the more noise the less people will buy ...Complaining doesn't help Thais know what is best

Another crackdown for a few days and than back to normal

In Thailand they can't use computers many examples... policecomputers of different areas are not connected, bank offices are not connected , even the living place and the blue family book are not connected... and AI that will take a few decades before Thailand knows what it is

Understandable. Thailand is manipulating the THB and with an more expensive THB they will get more money as things are being more expensive.. So at he end of the ear everything looks well but in fact it is all made up. The Government will shout look how much percent the economy increased by this government, but in fact it is manipulation and not the reality

They just realize this??? It is normal to see what they are doing and the impact of things when it is too late.. and than they want to turn it back which will never be able.. Tourism they have broken down several years ago already and look how they struggle to get it resolved now.. Now the tax is again a problem that they first do and when the expats and retirees are gone they realize they had made a mistake but they can't correct it anymore and so there are many many other things they do by not proper investigation and thinking of consequences... I know several sold their house already and left the country and more will follow as i hear in the expat community last week... Myself I am considering too what to do

People don't marry for love they marry for the dowry.. Time to end this medieval practice..And most people don't even marry for real, but only ceremonial. If they had a legal marriage things would become much different

Planning businesses instead of almost in every 100m a restaurant or foodshop.. Nobody can earn anything...

As I wrote many times, Thailand should register residents where they live and not in the blue family books. Then everybody has to fill in a tax form with their jobs, bank accounts, earnings and possessions. This could show a lot of information, and also shows the bribing and corruption ... As when someone has a job of 15k a month , he she can't without explanation have several houses or expensive cars.. And they could say it is from a inheritage but that is easy to check too as the ones who died have filled in tax forms too.Besides that the real poor people are easily found and can be given proper help, but at this moment the Government has no clue where someone lives, is doing what earn how much and what assets they have. Easy to reform tax, but first make a real thing that you can reform.. Now there is nothing as 75% of The Thai people can do as they like

Very inventive.. if big boobs barbershop is allowed than this too... I think a lot will have a small size to save money

He did not show it, he was watching it

It will be a misunderstanding.. police free, student pays

porn Illegal in the land of sex?? Oh yes I forgot as long as the envelopes ar being given nobody sees or knows anything. Never heard of privacy? It is no concern what he is watching on his cellphone as long as only watch it by himself. Nobody needs to look what another is doing on or with his phone. Or would you like that that people comment if you talk in public with your gig on messenger?

driving a car, motorcycle, or bicycle kills too, consuming alcohol kills too, eating food and fruit and meat grown with chemicals will kill too.. In fact everything you do will kill you and even if you live healthy , life will kill you, but put people in gaschambers for something is over the top

What is the problem? A bar is free an if they give free internet it is up to them. That the man did not spend anything should be told by the man in charge that consumptions are obliged or leave. But he did not do that. Policy should be changed, but you can't control what people ae doing on their cellphone

defamation charges looms... Critics are not allowed on a Thai something.

They should put him in it first for a few hours and than see what he will say again.. He surely will increase the health costs in Thailand or even worse if people die.. He is a killer and shoudl be removed from his post. He should make such a comment in Europe...

Same in the Netherlands, however I pay tax here, because I can claim my paid tax back in the Netherlands.. That is fair , but I don't gonna pay more here.

It was not the honking but the reaction of the car driver...

There is nothing to destroy as he never was there..... It shows again how corrupt the society is and there should be a decent investigation what happened by an independent institute and when things were not as reported the ones should be held responsible for it , jailed and banned
