  1. it seems a bit out of order.. Thailands age will go up indeed, but the reason is not only that people live longer but the average is surely influenced by the many young deaths in traffic accidents for example...These deaths will not be parents, besides that the very very low wages in Thailand don't make it easy to get children..Parents have to work, grandparents bring up the kids, but with the costs of schools for many reasons and rising living costs, although the government want to make us believe something else with their low inflation rate, makes it difficult to make ends meet. Than all Governments and elite don't care about it as this problem could be foreseen already decades ago, but the greed of them and the mai pen rai, because it will not affect us, is causing this problem. Solutions are possible, but there will be a big resistance for example no company is willing to raise the salaries, as they make us afraid that everything will be more expensive,,, They forget to tell us that if people can buy they will make more profit too.. Another solution is that everybody has to fill in a tax form so that the Government knows what people do for a living, how much money they have and earn, and probably have to pay tax, as almost nobody in this country pays tax. That money could be used for a kind of state pension. Stimulate more births by giving parents some money every few months extra for 3 or 4 kids ... And do something about the tragic traffic accidents with decent education, a working policeforce, and updated fines instead of 100 to 500 THB. If for not wearing a helmet a fine need to be paid of 1500 tHB the first time and the second time 2500 THB, you will see how quickly everybody will wear a helmet, and for overloaded trucks, let them stop and take what is too much from the truck...They will complain but \with the correct load they can move on with a fine of 10k....and for the things that is too much they have to find a solution...And drunk drivers??/ let them sleep in a celll till they are sober, fine them with 10k to 25k and with a very high alcohol level leave the car behind until the judge in court decided .... But I will hear we need the car/motorcycle for work/ no work no income..... but that is the result if you think that nothing will happen and you can do as you want.. The more the punishments hurts the quicker people will follow the rules
  2. Buriram is Anutin...... I think it says all
  3. Temples should be a place for rest and peace and meditation, but in Thailand that are places that causes sound pollution, with their parties, and screaming... That is the first place that should lower their volumes to a normal level... Other people make so much noise too with their TV's in shops, in the cars, and at home, restaurants, and just name it. and the RTP is doing nothing there should be max volumes to produce and the RTP should enforce the laws, but ther it goes wrong...
  4. Never ever change anything Thailand. Open your eyes and look at the real world , There are the people who drink alcohol too there are religious holidays too and there are accidents and alcohol abuse too........and there are rules too....But Thailand want to control everybody and everything, There are no Buddhists rules in the religion that forbid alcohol , that is only the rule of Thailand.. If the Government keeps on going not to change anything tourists will stay away even more... Surely with dinosaurs as this example.... Enter the 21st century please
  5. Kid needs to go to a rehabilitation centre with his parents, for they all need to be re educated
  6. I am not sure, but I thought that by outbound flight you always could buy alcohol.....Inbound I have no clue. but with a very old law they have to make it free every day all day ... and maybe ask for identification if a minor wants to buy...
  7. They will not find her... probably the same connections as the Red Bull Heir
  8. but will bring a big burden to the country in the coming years as interests and pay back the loan must be done.... Other ideas would have done much better for the economy instead of one time pay out of 10k, which in fact is nothing in a year time
  9. How can he be even be candidate if there are charges??
  10. Modern Thailand with updated laws, maybe after 60 years they will be reviewed.... Now they are talking about it, than a committee or 10 must investigate the matter and than maybe there will be a change
  11. They will build a wall on the borders that keep the pollution away
  12. So he can make a move a pay a decent wage of 600 THB at least for the people who gave him this wealth by working long hours for a minimum wage...The rich are rich because they don't want to pay for their wealth, only to keep their family out of justice
  13. if he wants to do that ahe need a special force that is reliable and not corrupt, as the current people can't be trusted and often involved in the drugs trafficking too
  14. NO wonder when there is no law enforcement and nobody cares if kids go to school or not. Not parents, not teachers, not government officials nobody and we see many kids cycling around, or playing instead of being in school. But of course there many kids who have to help their parents to get an income or people with disabilities or grandparents.. The Government is to blame for this mismanagement.. See that the latest news is that disabled people get 10k a year... Disabled and sick people need much more as they need more washing, medication, transport to hospitals and doctors and so on. Parents have to work because the wages are too low so the kids have to help ...... Shame Thailand while there are people in your country that don't know what to do with all their money and not even want to pay tax of it to set up a decent program for help
  15. Shameless THai Government... while they earn millions, are corrupt and greedy the poor and in need are getting 10k a year????? That is not even an hour wages for the senators and ministers.... How long will the Thai people accept this
  16. The evolution of Thailand a 52 year old law of no selling alcohol between 2 pm and 5 pm, although many times people begged to get rid of it.. It will now be considered so it can take another decade before the decision is made. Same as with the lower taxes on alcohol... It started in March but there are no changes in prices....
  17. Excellent water management of Thailand.. Every year the same problems and zero solutions.... Attrack tourists ,Phuket, by advertising that the hotels are in the swimmingpools...Soft power works maybe better than Lisa...
  18. Enforcing the laws.. I see many kids don't go to school, but nobody cares about it...Sometimes kids have to help their parents because of the low wages and so they don't can't go to school... Poverty must be solved in Thailand and that is possible if the few superrich would pay more taxes and the Government was more concerned about the people... But only own pocketfilling is their most important goal. And please don't stop complaining that higher wages will make everything more expensive.. If people can buy more these companies will sell more and their profits will go up, but nobody talks about that
  19. They are not sure yet if the ones of the old guard and elite have the majority to stay in power.... First double check that before announcing the results, suppose the country would go forward
  20. too much sugar use and kids don't play anymore except on their cellphones There is no time to play as kids have to be in school for long days.. Besides that everything must be easy. People in Thailand drive with their motorcycle or car to a shop stop in front of it and buy without walking one meter...And look at the television how many advertisement we see on sweets, candies , cookies and sugar energy drinks...
  21. Soft power to attrack tourist or forthe funniest homevideos... How low can you go
  22. Start with lower the real prices of wines... Welcome expats and longstayers instead of chasing them out with high taxes... Make tourists welcome instead of scam them everywhere and with everything.. and the list can go on
  23. Of course with the upcoming holidays they don't want any trouble
  24. I am getting so sick of Lisa, just if there is nothing more important than a singer born in Thailand but educated in Korea.... but yeah if you don't have anything to be proud of because of a lack of inspiration, renewal, ideas.... you have to make something up
