Section 112 amendment was never a tool for MFP to bring down the monarchy, but only to make things clear so that it could not be abused for protestors and people against Government. But because the army feels a threat they have brought false information into the country that MFP was the culprit. Dissolution is totally unacceptable as there is and was nothing done yet. Laws were not made or even brought into the parliament. So nothing happened. It is just a power play of the army to show who really is charge in the country.

Thai Olympic Achievements Expected to Boost Sports Sales
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The medals Thailand should do much more for the youth of Thailand, however Thai TV is not broadcasting much or only at night.... In many countries youth will participate in sports especially when there are championships and the athletes are doing their best to win.. But where can you find any sportclub in Thailand, such as for athletics, gymnastics, basketball, cycling, rowing, volleyball, badminton or whatever where kids can play and learn and improve to become the future sportsmen... Nothing at all unfortunately -

Digital Wallet Project Sales Exempt from Revenue Department Access
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I surely believe that many people will get a tax form next year. We all know that many Thais don't pay taxes and with this digital wallet system the Government knows how much money they earn and what they have in the bankaccounts..So it is easy to tax them now. -

Government Takes Bold Steps Against Illegal Migrant Workers
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Maybe it should be easier to get a workpermit.... Now it is an endless paperwork for employer and employee..... So that is why many stop with the procedure and work illegal.... Why not introduce a workvisa?? just apply for it and you can work in almost every job...Much easier, but in Thailand all jobs are protected even prostitution although it doesn't exists....Foreigners are being limited or jailed almost in every job for not having a workpermit. Even volunteer work is impossible...Volunteer is without payment...and if people complain you can't even mown you own lawn........ Easy for people to blame but look at the reasons. I know for foreign teachers it can take up to 3 months before getting a workpermit and that is far too long -
Thai Citizens Anticipate 10,000-Baht Digital Wallet for Essential Expenses
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
With all restrictions of what people can buy I am wondering if it will and can work. In fact the only thing that can be done with the 10k is buying food and daily groceries on markets, and small shops...which are normally already more expensive than than the supermarkets.. and for the person in the story what do you do with 5 kilo sugar every day?? It is very bad for your health, or you have a business maybe? -
US Senator Warns Over Move Forward Party Dissolution
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The only problem is that there is no democracy in Thailand.. A few rule and pretend that it is a democracy, a hidden monopolistic system which will not accept that there will a change of their powers....And as normal in Thailand, they don't listen or want advice of foreigners as in Thailand they know best.... Dissolving MFP will be do more harm to the country than they can imagine, but that is the eyes of outsiders.. It will bring less stabile political system, which influence the economy in a negative way, it will bring unrest all ove rthe country which will have a negative impact on tourism and of course it will bring more poverty as a result.. Anyway it their country- 28 replies

Apple Withdraws Ad Amid Thai Backlash, Extends Apology
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
A Thai company was involved in making the movie... they could not see what they were making?? Besides that.. Thailand is still not entering the 21st century with all outdated laws, rules, cars, and the way people think. No surely it is a mirror, but the truth hurts so maybe it is an opportunity to make changes instead of all the commotion. That will do much more harm to the tourists industry than let it go... Maybe it will attrack a lot of people to go on a vintage holiday destination -

Apple Withdraws Ad Amid Thai Backlash, Extends Apology
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
An undeveloped nation??? the truth hurts.. look on the laws and rules nowadays or several cars on the roads and way of thinking and behaving... Many times here is written that Thailand is still not in the 21st century.. And Apple be careful the makers of the movie can maybe get charged with defamation or criminal computer act or whatever stupid law to control the freedom of speech and writing- 113 replies

Constitutional Court Cannot Dissolve Move Forward Party, Says Leader
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It is true , by talking about changes it doesn't mean that you have the intention to undermine the monarchy... A coup however is much more worse and that is always being accepted without consequences...But the whole process around the section 112 issues and constitution is done by false information as nobody is properly informed and the journalists did not do their job and investigated as in many other countries..... Here they say was is being dictated or written without looking further.. So the public opinion is being influenced in the wrong direction..And for the other culprit it is ridiculous that he lived in Dubai for so long as there were no consequences when he returned...Why did they let him come back?? Obvious he is already a new problem- 15 replies

Thai Army Offers Conscripts 10 Baht Meals Following Criticism
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Shameful Thailand with so many inactive generals who fill their pockets with doing nothing eating and drinking with their big salaries while the conscripts hardly get to eat... Even worse than in a government school...And that while so much money is going every year to the army... where is it going than..... Changes are very very needed.. It should be free and not being deducted... The army works for the country why do they have to pay for it??- 17 replies

Thailand calls for strict e-cigarette law amid rising seizures
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
And not only them.. but also soldiers and army crew, RTP officers, teachers, and freely available on all markets all over Thailand.. Stop with all restrictions. make it just legal as in many others countries, but tax them more if you want them to stop and not allowed if you are under 18 or so.. Much better than forbidding things and not enforce them -

Thaksin Shinawatra Told To Stop Overpowering Srettha Thavisin
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It is too late already.. THaksin is granted too many privileges and he was always involved in the Pheu Thai. Withy the pardon and non jail terms and all the media attention if he is going somewhere or doing something it gives him the power behind the scenes and he keeps up saying he doesn't want to be PM. No of course not... This is more convenient let others do what he want and he can pretend that his hands are clean -

Thai customer complains about buffet restaurant staff service
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
If you run a business you have understand that there are always people who complain, but to make a legal action of it is over the top, but as everything in Thailand people think they are perfect, their business is a 6 star Michellin star establishment and comments are loosing face for them.. So stop with it if you can't accept critics and find a normal job. It just another case... hotels, restaurants shops.. everybody has such a long toes when they get comments
