Thailand... the new Taiwan?

More police officers to fine tourists as they are a real thread for the safety... no helmets, speeding, no driving licenses, alcohol consuming, noise making, driving wrong side of the road, fighting, peeing in the sea... all things Thais will never do

looks like new

yes sure a very low country called The Netherlands in Eu and I am high educated... and you??

Tourists will line up for a bottle of water of a this brand

And so are the fines if you don't follow traffic rules, or other laws....That is why there are as many traffic deaths in 1 year as here in Thailand in 1 week...The police is doing their job... and no fines are disappearing in the pockets

Hahahah.. you don't anything about my country as you show.... No even for Thais is everything much better than for foreigners here, except it is pricy

Make a decent registry of motorcycle taxis with requirements and give them a sign that they are approved by the Government, instead of a jacket that you can buy everywhere... If people don't meet the requirements or make problems remove them ...But such things need enforcements and that lacks Thailand in all subjects Same for car taxis

It seems that all high ranked people don't have a clue what their assets are and how much money they have... There is time enough to look into their books and count their jewellery and watches and cars I believe.. But they need more time to hide things or so... I know what my assets are and how much money I have in a few hours or even minutes.... but I have nothing to hide

The hub of brake failure and the hub of non maintenance of vehicles and serious check ups...

It is time to make getting workpermits easier than all the paperwork that is required now... That is the main cause of why so many people work without a workpermit.. The processs is long and a lot of paperwork for every workpermit even for the same company...Thailand still can't work with a scanner to put all documents in a computer but need still paper copies of everything everytime... Not 21st century anymore

Paying tax is ok IF you get rights too... but now Thailand want to have tax from our income and assets overseas, and in the meanwhile they give nothing in return except double standards, no voting rights, no social security etc, while all imported goods are on very high tax, like wines and although they promised to lower the tax nothing happened yet since March. It is always a one way ticket in Thailand. I strongly believe after they chased the backpack tourists away and the people who could for one or another reason not apply for a long term visa, but contributed a lot to the Thai economy and families, now they want get rid of expats and retirees... This is not starting this year but already a long time the matter... Thailand doesn't look what is brought in but only how much money they can get out of you. i once was at the immigration office several years ago and an elderly couple was at the desk and their visa could not be extended. The man had not enough money, but he told the immigration officer that he had bought a houseof 5 million, and furniture and a car, and paid it all and he told the officer he could not have 800k on a bank account anymore.... And the officer said it is the rule and the wife started to cry..... I don't know the end of the story as I was finished with my stuff, but it just an example of the shortsighted ideas in Thailand.. Children and grandchildren will come and visit the parents/grandparents and spend money here, good for tourism and economy, but Thailand only sees short term benefits and destroys everything on the long term

Typical RTP actions..... doing nothing unless you pay them

How is it possible that such amounts are coming in Thailand, while small packages are being checked and need to pay import tax.. 94.000 should be have been checked and hold at the border if they are illegal.. But corruption again

The truth always hurts and besides that it is freedom of speech and an opinion.... Nothing wrong with it...except here in Thailand that only thinks that everything is perfect here

Another issue that is only allowed for Thais.... Foreigners are not allowed to fight... Thai people can do as we have seen many times even in hospitals and that is no problem for the netizens... but as foreigners fight on the beach.......

I know but if they maybe they can find the construction... it needs a lot of research and no corruption, both impossible in Thailand

I am wondering why she is rising??? Nothing has been done yet except some pay outs of the 10k

The result of the ancient administration of the lands and assets of Thailand and the people.... Same as Wat Angkor... Thailand claims lands and things that are maybe never been of Thailand, of that are already in Thai hands..

It will be impossible to find the truth.. there is too much money involved and too many lies.. The only real thing that can be done is checking everyone involved and their assets and money... as always follow the money, but the panel will be probably find nothing and the truth will stay hidden... Unless the panel has a lot of money to spend

The drugs are a minor problem, but the biggest problem is the corruption and the involvement of police and army.....They will never accept less income

In most western countries they have something similar as Thailand has now invented it is called sewerage.....

Another example/proof how Westerners and expats welcome are in Thailand..

Moslims are all over the world a problem with their islam

read your insurance terms please.... you are only insured as the driver has a valid drivers license...it is not required when you get the insurance
