Thailand Cracks Down on Vapes with Severe Penalties and Public Reporting
The Thai governments logic is retarded. Get fined and imprisoned for vaping yet the use of methamphetamine is ok, with 4 or less MA tablets on your person not being an offence. I shudder to think how many deaths are caused by the paranoia of prolonged use and the road accidents due to sleep deprivation. The amount of stories we all read about Thai drivers falling asleep at the wheel and killing people is horrific.

Thailand Holds Off on 30-Day Visa-Free Change Decision
Can those that purchased flights based on the 60 day visa exempt and are worried about it being reduced to 30 days not just pay £35 for a 60 day SETV ? 30/40 minutes on the Thai Embassy site and job done, i've done it every year except last year and it's very straight forward if you can use a computer. Just a thought.

Thailand's Visa Policy Not Causing Crime Spike, Experts Say
As a casual observer, i see the country going downhill quickly after the visa relaxation. I am so glad i am not in high tourist destination, the popular destinations seem like they have turned into war zones. The Pheu Thai government had to relax the visa rules to attract more tourists to pay for the 10,000 baht gift for votes.
