TAT considers actions needed to restore tourist confidence in Thailand
The shooting incident will not have a big impact on the tourists. So TAT you have to do a lot more to attrack tourists again. How about stopping scams, double pricing, see wallets instead of tourists, become the land of smiles again, stop chasing tourists for vaping, get rid of the alcohol sales hours and stop blaming tourists for every thing that goes wrong, as Anutin did several times.

Thai senators to spice things up with complaint after Icelandic restaurant row
In the real world, everybody is allowed to choose which guest are welcome and who not. The government of that country will not interfere,as it is a part of the habitats freedom. Thailand has only rights for the rich,high ranked and famous, so now they feel hurt. Thailand should enter the real world in the 21st century instead of keeping their old fashioned and outdated laws. Rights are for everyone the dame they shout, look at Thaksin,but the reality is totally opposite

PM Srettha aims to lift Thailand to upper-income status in four-year soar
An upper income of 600THB no paid holidays and a pension of 3000THB. A month? Good luck. I see it differently as many here think that wage raise will make things more expensive. I don't think so. Now there are as example 4 people working in a car wash. At 400THB a day is 1600THB for the owner to pay. But when the salary will be 600THB a day he will pay for 3 people 1800THB.he will fire one and the personnel will be working better and harder than playing on their cell phone to keep their job. Not much more expensive for the owner and the ones fired can do other jobs instead of the immigrant workers. Same for many other stores, where there are too many people employed for playing on their cell phone or talking. Changes must be made

Understanding Thailand’s New Tax Directive on Foreign Income
It is nothing new as a resident you have to pay tax over your income in Thailand. So far no problem as I had to pay more taxi my home country. The tax in my home country is giving me the paid tax back, if I can show that I pay here. But there will be changes and I can't get my tax back anymore. I will not tax inThailand, because there is also a tactile here that you don't need to tax if it are Savings. So I keep my money on my account in my home country and transfer it a few months later... Problem solved

Pheu Thai MPs to ask House to consider Padipat’s suitability as deputy House speaker
Everything should be done to prevent MFP being part of the government. They are a threat to the sitting establishment. And the pheu Thai..... they showed their real face already and now again. They are really bad losers. But the MFP is the only party that would have helped Thailand and it's people. Not the ones now in power, they only will enrich themselves more

MFP faces corruption probe over contentious Deputy House Speaker expulsion
Everything must be done to get rid of any influence of MoveForward it seems. A lot of negative news all the time, while it is the only party that could help Thailand. All others as we see are doing the job for their own good

Senator Porntip asked to leave restaurant in Iceland
Bravo.. The man should be decorated. He is an example for many Thais and I hope his action will be a inspiration for others Thais to do so. They can't sue the man for defamation or so Lol

Ministry of Labour plans to raise the retirement age with more workers opting out of the economy
Maybe Thailand could start to set up a real good social security system. First let everybody register where they live and what job they are doing and let them fill in a tax form. The government can see who is earning what in which job, and how assets they have and can collect tax according. Now they have no clue at all as we have seen already in several cases last weeks. Than you can chance things but how can you change what you don't know

Parliament Accepts Public Draft Bills on Equality and Identity
Several years ago Thailand would de the first South East Aswan country that would introduce Gay Marriage. More than 10years are passed many committees have look into it.,and still they can't take a decision? A new forum have to come? Why just not saying we don't want it. Much easier than giving false hope.

Move Forward party warned by Pheu Thai MPs not to “play games”

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part I
In fact nothing news. It was already and I wrote several times I had to pay tax in Thailand. Cheaper than in my homecountry. But now my country is going to change the taxagreement with Thailand, so that we have to pay tax in my country and not in Thailand anymore. However Thailand did not approve it yet. maybe shortly and that is more expensive for me

Weighing passengers to become standard for Bangkok Airways
i am wondering if it is an obligation. and what if somebody refuses ?? There is something as privacy and is this not against Human rights?? Nobody has to know my weight. but if it is only for the weight in the plane, they should enforce the maximum weight of luggage and handbags too

Pita Resigns as MFP Leader
Is Thailand a modern world?? The people are being brainwashed from birth already that Thailand is the best country, the Elite and higher ranked persons should be respected and listened too, so an arguing with your boss is not done, in meetings it is like in church. The director speaks and everybody listen and nobody dares to say something. In such a country controlled by money, the people believe, as their religion obliged, that changes can be made peacefully. But there is no information about other countries, how they fight with the Government. Even protests here in Thailand are not or almost not being broadcasted. How can you expect a big uproar as in other countries?? French revolution articles are banned in Thailand.. It is not my call, but if there are no victims, nothing will change.. I was holding my breath last year when the hungerstrikers were at the edge, and it seemed that nobody cared. If they had died, Thailand would look different already

Charter changes referendum has MFP concerned about government’s procrastination
Thailand should make a charter with a few simple basic rules, like the American constitution and which can't be broken by anything, instead of after every coup a new charter. In the new constitution should be mentioned that coup/high treason is capital punishment in public..... period without clemency.

Thai education minister’s appointment in question over Red Bull heir scandal
Background checks??? brown envelopes?? how is it possible that he could even be nominated for this position or as MP.. It is far worse than a few mediashares

Pita Resigns as MFP Leader
In France in 1789 and in Belgium 1830 the elite and the Government did almost the same as they are doing here in Thailand. A revolution ended it and that will cost no money but human lives. It is a sacrifice that is made for big changes unfortunately. It can go but you here more and more people complaining why they voted, that nothing is changing,and things are going worse every year. It will take time but it will happen. A coup could trigger it and I think the army knows it. That is why they come with all kind of financial help, as in Thailand money is important, but it will not solve the problems

Pita Resigns as MFP Leader
It was to be expected.. Th CC has done its job again.. delay the decision and wait a long time...block decisions and action and see what happens... the one who they want get rid of is very smart and goes himself because he doesn't want to hold the country back....I am wondering how long people will accept the games of the CC Ec and Government

American man faces dilemma as Thai girlfriend’s parents demand 1 million baht dowry
In Thailand loves equals the amount of money you have... Everything is about money, how much did you pay for it? how much do you earn? how much does it cost? etc etc if you talk with someone. Always rmoney is involved and as foreigners still seem to be rich ( which the Government keep to say too by double pricing as "they" have more money") the asks for money will be bigger.. I would say although I love her very much i will look further maybe there are others who don't love me for my wallet

Thai Tourism Minister Urges Avoiding Stereotyping Chinese Tourists Amid Visa Policy Crime Concerns
If someone wants to be a criminal it is very hard to keep him/her from doing that.. But there are more non criminals than criminals.. and Chinese they are decades known for their maffia all over the world so keep the visa system intact for them just to control, but it is not certain that no criminals are comin. An policeforce that works should help ... but in Thailand.... with money you can buy the police to look to the other way
