Thailand ranks bottom of the pile with ASEAN English score
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Surprise, surprise, with unmotivated students because they always pass, non English speaking English Thai teachers.. as my boss was a master in English but could not conversate with me, English camps in Thai Language and a Government that only speaks of important to learn English, but nowhere in Thailand you can find an English movie on TV, and everything should be in Thai..... A bit of big change is needed... Maybe the former backpackers were better to teach than the average level of a Thai English teacher...- 212 replies

Instead of a 10k handout, they should set up a social security fund for the elderly and handicapped people.. They need the money more than someone with an income of 40-70k and/or a bankaccount with more than 250k... The digital wallet should be reviewed and better used

PM Urged To Skip Double Standards Over Thaksin As Convict At Large
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Double standards?? no not in Thailand... as they said before, everybody the same treatment...Now Yingluck will be the next to come back and the Red Bull heir will be cleared and all problems are solved again... Prisons only for the poor and uneducated and full of people who committed minor offences..jail terms for shoplifting, kicking someone, or not paying bills... and if you have money you can pay off and no charges.. I know from a boy in the neighbourhood who is dealing in drugs...pay the police and no charges or judge ... and he is free and can continue -

Chinese police operating in other countries is nothing new
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It shows the quality of the Chinese tourists as they need Chinese policemen.. If you behave you don't need an own policeforce to control -
I know tax in Thailand is very low,but I know also that the RD have no clue who is earning what and we had an example a few months back when a official only claimed he earned 1 million but in reality it was 50 times more... As long as there is no control and the RD doesn't know who is doing what everybody can fill in what they want...In my country every business needs an accountant, and they fill in the tax for and once in a few years time the tax people come and check everything to see if there is no fraud. Here in Thailand there is no control whatso ever, and many don't fill in a tax form not even to get a reduction and many are paid without tax paying.. It is all outdated the whole system, but now they want the foreigners to pay for their own shortcomings

Maybe the RD should start with the Thai people to let them fill in a tax form ad check if the information is correct. 70% of the Thai people don't pay tax while they have a lot of money to spend it seems, although many don't have that wealth. Foreign taxes are much complicated than they think and it is the question if the RD is capable of handling all that in formation as it will be in the native language or maybe English, but English is not the strongest language here.. and not to speak about the complex information in the language of the country. Anyway I think it will be more affect Thai citizens than expats.We all know that digital programs are not working well too.. many examples aswe have seen fr the Covid , 90 days reporting immigration services.. If you enter Thailand they local immigration have no clue ..and still need a picture by extending your visa and all kind of information that was given already at the airport a week ago.. So don't worry too much now

there is so much a need to recognize samesex relations.... but this Government again will not do it I am sure... promises but no actions -
Don't promise if you can't fulfill and besides that.. sorry for th kids, but it is not a real missing.. education material maybe a colorpage or a small booklet with games and KFC is delicious but expensive and fried even unhealthy.. So practice your thank you and keep it for someone who will do what they promise but don't believe everything
