Nothing new yet, although they pretend Thailand will have a samesex marriage.. The question however is when??? The Senate has to approve first and we all don't know when they will do it.. The mandate of the current sanators ends in May and probably they don't look it anymore, In May new senators are being elected and than it will take again several months before they start working.. Suppose they approve it too than it need to be signed by the King and published, but that can also take 120 days... So nothing will probably change before the 1st of January or maybe later.. And we hope that the current Government will be in power that time, because if there are being new elections probably the law has to be done again.. No I am very sorry but nothing has changed yet for the LGBTI group. Delasying all the time as the shout we want it, but in reality we do everything we can to hold it back

don't need to be shocked it is normal in Thailand.. If the Revenue Department was doing there job they could see that a lot of people have a too less income for all the assets they have. and they could start an investigation.. But as usual .... they don't like to work too or are being paid for not to see

Ridiculous amount of money... Where is it based on?? Suppose it was a "normal"person He would have been fined with 30-50k... of course he needed to be fined, but let's be fair nobody likes to kill someone and maybe the doctor did not watch too for the traffic as everybody knows it is very dangerous in Thailand with all non educated drivers. The government should be responsible for it as they don't educate properly and don't maintain the roads and signs..

in fact everything can be solved. Tourists are tourists and most tourist come for a few weeks. they are no problem. the problems occur with the long term visas.. many kinds of visa, but why not get rid of them. just make a long stay visa that you can apply for a. if you retire from 58 up and with an income or an amount of money in a bankaccoumt just as it is now, but with proof where you are living from. b. same as a for marriage visa. same as now, but with proof of the money where you are living from. c. for work with an job contract and all the paperwork needed for a workpermit. now the Russians come on a long term visa for example but nobody knows where they are living from. of course they need money and will work as they have to eat too. With so many jobs that Thais don't like to do., the difficulty to open your own business it is no wonder that people who want to work can work. No need for Thais to feel offended, as the most only go for big money

yes sure... the article is made for having a good feeling... Bangkok on of the most polluted cities in the world, Suvarnabhumi not the best aiport as we could read a few weeks back, Thai airways overpriced and not the quality you can expect.. Emirates, Qatar, Singapore Airlines are much better..

Shameful... The prices surely can afford a daily salary of 600 THB.. at least.. Touristic areas and famous hotels and who have to work for it to keep the stars?/ the cleaners, gardeners, etc.. their work makes it that the hotels can be overpriced. So now time to give a bit back to these people.. Tourists are flocking in as we have to believe

Are there Thais who can sing?? and they don't cover or copy??

It is very easy.. Israel is already in war for thousands of years.. They had to rob Palestine after they left Egypt in the time of Mozes and have never stopped. After the 2nd World War always Israel was the agressor by not accepting the mandates about Western Jordanian part and built illegal houses there. They are backup by the Western countries, as the Jews needed a own state after the war, but without any decent transforming the Palestine country they think they can all they want. Anyway it is a shame what they are doing and I am happy the UN at least accewpted the latest motion against Israel, but Israel will go on and commit war crimes.; Hamas I see more as defenders of the rights of the original people, but are being blamed and named in the media as Terrorists...

In a few months we will read that many Chinese are working illegal here and will be deported..

But in 30 seconds how can they apply the strictly check of the incoming foreigners as the immigration is told to do so now??

So nothing achieved in 7 months....is still a lot of wasted time.. He can promote Thailand in the rest of the world but Thailand need changes first

LOnger queues at the airport.. while in the meantime people are ordered to make it more convenient. Left doesn't know what right is doing again

netizens.. they don;t care about anything unless it is done by foreigners.. parking at red white blocks stoppping in the middle of the road or zebracrossings, parking where it is not allowed or claimin parkin space in fron of their stalles.... Double standards all over Thailand

Doping is not allowed....

Good stand up and talk even the current parties don't like it....

Thais are no criminals, but foreigners as you state it

15 foreigners out of how many Thais??

Good news, as the Government already said some time ago that in coming debate the opposition was not allowed to ask questions for national security... The Senators can do it ...problem solved

Laws for the common people not for the ones in charge

No problem.. in a few years he will be received as a hero just like they did with Thaksin.... Just a good example that is now be done again... New Government new possibilties for those in exile.. Section 112 violations are much worse to be punished

Thai work only for Thai people, as foreigners we have to live with that.. I don't never any advice or do anything anymore for the Thai society.. Tooo dangerous for being caught for "illegal" work without a workpermit...Thai people don't have a clue what they are missing on other experiences, help, contact.. but alas in a closed conservative society I can live with it

Says someone with no brains otherwise he could discuss properly.. Thais in Dubai, South Korea, Japan , Finland and many other countries are doing much better

I wish they did the same for the Thai people.. Than it is justified because everybody has to follow the laws.. But now it are only the foreigners are being checked.. How many Thais are driving drunk, with no helmets or drivers licenses or under influence of drugs or smoke e cigarettes.. It surely seems that the Thais are superior and can do as they please, while others have to follow the laws.. More Catholic than than the pope?

What is Thailand going to do there?? a seminar about democracy, as Thailand is not a democracy at all>. A big input they will not have and accpting things they won't do as Thailand has its own democracy as Mr Prayuth once said and can not compared with others.. In the past years we know now what democracy he meant

good move, however as he is the hidden PM there will be nothing done, except maybe for the students that the are trying to undermine the national security..
