  1. Could be but the interest rate is not only for a country it follows the international rates too, and probably every country is following it.
  2. If they really want the country to move forward, they should have give MFP a chance instead of the witch hunt they are doing now on this party and leaders.. But in the land of dinosaurs it will take a very long time before the country even starts to move
  3. If there are no changes coming, Thailand will loose the connection with the world. Bad education that makes people lazy by outdated law of always passing for example, poverty will be getting worse, no freedom of press, speaking, and writing, everything is censured, and with many outdated laws enforced by army and a corrupt police force, double standards for foreigners, it will be a non attractive country anymore. The people should come together and demand changes, but the government divides more and more as they know " divide and rule". But if the people of Thailand work together they are stronger than any force. It is their country and they have to claim it back instead of now being in the hands of incompetent governments and army
  4. There is no need to help, the people with high debts. A assistance of how to use their money and talk with the creditors try to find solutions for paying back. I worked for a NGO and charitable institution and we helped so people out of their debts. It take a long time, but important is to see how people spend their money and that they have to change that....Everything here seems to be a problem of the Government, but people are responsible for their own deeds
  5. There was no brake failure for sure... The bus have stopped several times already with no problems, only when there is an accident it is brake failure, maybe because they are speeding and think that when they stop suddenly they stand still right away. Never heard of braking distance. or people are too tired and react different than when they had enough rest and sleep. Anyway RIP to the deceased and good recovery for the injured. It is always a roulette to drive with a person you hired
  6. Of course he want a lower interest rate.. He needs to borrow a lot for his 10k scheme and with the current interest rates it will be difficult and Sethra thinks with a lower rate it is easier to get approval of the senate
  7. Foreign maffia is not allowed.. All jobs Thai can do are protected , so these practices too
  8. My English is terrible as you don't understand what I wrote.. please correct it and teach me what is wrong... I am never too old to learn. Easy to give comments, but look at your own
  9. waaw what a progression 600 km 3 track railway.. It is about time since the 19th century nothing has been done at the railways anymore. Except the high speed line but that is endless building it seems
  10. Maybe the Government should start to review the outdated labour laws and requirements to get a workpermit. Sometimes people need so much paperwork and certificates and titles that it is almost impossible to get a workpermit. Best example is an English teacher and also for guides. The protection that jobs are forbidden for foreigners for jobs a Thai can do also is ouitdated. We all know that Thai education sometimes lacks the real skills such as English teachers who can conversate with you an have a lower degree than a foreigner needs. Same for guides.. where can you learn French/ or Russian or whatever language here in Thailand as many Thais not even are willing to learn English?
  11. not only for entertainment venues in Pattaya but it should be in fact all over the country and especially also for the temples. The temples with their activities are really producing too much noise, while in fact they should be a shelter for meditation and rest..But with a non enforcement policy and a refusing to change mentality people will gat ear damage and the sounds are only increasing
  12. Cash is untraceable..... But no corruption of course all legal... even the watches of a death friend
  13. I personally think that the Thai Government can't subsidy everything. They should invest in modern transportation and if things are too costly replace them. It seems that the Thai Government is responsible for all extra costs.. subsidy for farmers, petrol, hospitals, transportation etc etc .. but the most Thai people are not paying taxes so how on earth can everything being paid than?
  14. Is that something like the pot and the kettle?? Many Thais abused their visa for overstaying in S Korea and stayed to work there.. Wondering why there are stricter measures now for Thai??? Thailand is doing the same with other countries too
  15. With many requirements for jobs that only can not do it is no wonder that "illegal" guides show up.. Thailand should do something to make things easy as it should be in the 21st century instead of staying behind in the pre WO II era
  16. As expected.. The dinosaurs will never do anything for this community, except words and promises. And than they want to invite the World Gay Pride...No wonder they miss the boat all the time
  17. Yeah more room revenues but because of more tourists or because the raised the room rates?? Hotels are getting very expensive and that will surely cost Western tourists.. Now they are being welcomed, as for the past years the Chinese were the only important group, now they don't come anymore the focus is again on the Westerns.. but for how long?? Why not focus on Russians and Kazakhs now?? Or as last year Indians and Arabians..Thailand should follow a education in Tourism, it will be good instead of doing things without thinking
  18. Raising the minimum wages will not have a big impact.. If people can buy the same or more the businesses will benefit from it, but with no salary increases people can buy less and that will hurt more. The greed however of businesses is unbelievable, all around the world thousands profit must be millions and millions must be billions and still nobody is satisfied..
  19. More could be found somewhere in Bangkok...
  20. Same here I don't want any anymore...But I had to take vaccines because 2 members of my family died of Covid and we had be vaccinated to travel.. but after the vaccination we got Covid too, so I don't know was because of the vaccination or were we less ill because of it.... Anyway I said I don't take vaccines anymore
  21. The question still remains is it caused by the vaccine or is a result of surviving by the vaccine? Without the vaccine maybe people with now long covid could have died, but because of the covid they are alive, but have now the problems of long covid. It can take many years before this question can be answered
  22. Result of mismanagement, and greed. Nurses have to work long hours and hospitals are overcrowded. With a payment that ia barely enough to pay the rent it is no wonder that young people don't choose to be a nurse. Better payments, better working hours and less greed of directors of hospitals and doctors could solve a lot ... But this is Thailand. Big reforms should be made in health care.
  23. Rip..probably suicide as the police always say. No further investigations need to be done case closed.... Feel sorry his family
  24. Defamation law should be amended.. It used for all critics.. Suppose in the Western society they should charge everybody who anything they did not like... new courts would have build an many mor judges.. Come on everybody knowhow Miss elections are working
