From the picture, it looks to me as if he has already lost a finger!

I believe that bees are banned on aircraft even with a minimal risk ???????????? ????

Why do they have to be ordered to do what should be their daily job anyway! I guess too many of the RTP are in inactive posts.

I can never understand why anybody needs a hand gun or any other gun come to that! ALL hand guns should be banned from private ownership. UK did this after the Dunblane shooting with some success. Police should be issued with guns (if they need them) as opposed to having to buy their own, and should hand them back at the end of each shift. As Thailand never enforces anything it is probably pointless making any new legislation.

How sad ???? This may well be the tip of a coming iceberg as I fear that as the cost of living continue to rise and employers are not prepared to increase the minimum wage above 300 baht per day, more people will become desperate and leave their children either with a relative or, at their wits end, abandon them in the hope that they will be looked after by the state. I find the expression "a good Samaritan" somewhat amusing as it is often used here in this Buddhist country. God bless those poor little mites. ????

As does the £ ????

When I visited Peru several times, I seem to remember that I had to pay a fee on departure, not on arrival. Those on long term visas i.e those ex-pats living in Peru, were exempt I think.

Another part of China's master plan to rule the whole of SE Asia, then the world!

How kind of him! Does he not realise that negotiations have been going on since the very start of this war, but the Russians refuse to back down and claim that they are not the aggressors. Tell that to the thousands of Ukrainian citizens who have lost their lives.

Yet another example of the world stopping outside Bangkok! The article states "tropical storm Noru, which is expected to hit some north-eastern provinces this Thursday." North-eastern provinces are already inundated with water and already have floods, but not a mention in the article about preparations in Isaan!

Nice to see a speedy resolution to this case. (2009 - 2022) Only 13 years!

I think that this is related to the civil servants who serve Parliament and has nothing to do with extending the time of MPs!

Totally bananas!!!!

Real time payments should not have to rely on getting a phone to read a QR Code. Thai Banks should issue debit cards that are touch and go. My bank looked at me blankly the last time I renewed it and asked for such a card. Mind you, this is the same bank that takes 4 or 5 days to get me a 12 month statement for immigration purposes as they have to get it from Bangkok! I won't hold my breath for more advanced technology ????

In my view, anybody in authority who warns kids in his or her charge, in an aggressive or threatening manner is abusing his/her position. Child abuse takes many forms and if he threatened, or hit the youngster involved, then he should be punished by instant dismissal and lose his pension. You cannot hide behind "I am a respected old school teacher close to retirement" anymore. Respect is not a right, it has to be earned!

Interestingly enough, I did my 90 day report on-line yesterday and there is no place to enter my TM6 number, which I have been doing for the past 10 years. Approved in les than 30 minutes! Looks like that they are now just going by passport number on their system.

Going to or coming from a funeral? Traditionally Thais wear white and/or black for a funeral. Seems like its his own, poor fellow.

I believe that only WHO can declare endemic status. Pandemic definition states :- : occurring over a wide geographic area (such as multiple countries or continents) and typically affecting a significant proportion of the population "How is a pandemic declared? The World Health Organization (WHO) is responsible for declaring when a global pandemic is occurring. The WHO does this by monitoring outbreaks of a disease and taking advice from international health experts. Australia and other countries are, however, likely to take steps to reduce the impact of an pandemic before the WHO makes a formal declaration." https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/what-is-a-pandemic

When I was a boy, electrocuted meant "Killed by electric shock". (See Cambridge Dictionary) Obviously the definition has changed (probably by Americans) since then to include injury. (See Merriam-Webster Dictionary) Two nations separated by a common language! ???? Just saying ????

And therein lies the problem! This type of behaviour, employing an agent who bribes the IO with a little sweetener, makes it more difficult for us who do it ourselves for a fraction of the cost, i.e. the correct fee. I learned very early on that you only give the IO the exact money for an extension, (1900THB) as they will always keep the change even if you object. As a Christian, I have always tried to be an honest person and will never get involved in the corrupt practices of agents.

Does anybody believe these figures? Where do they get these figures from? Most people I know who have tested at home and shown to be positive, don't tell anybody official!

20% of beds occupied by dead people? Surely they should move them to the mortuary! :-)

So, what is the going rate then Mr. Thepsutin?

Where do they get this $10,000 dollar (343,891 THB), figure for Covid insurance from? A full course of Favipiravir, which is the current treatment for Covid, only costs 5000 baht and people can now isolate at home!

Sensible man ????
