Two issues
1 Stray dogs and how to deal with them
2 Using a gun in public or anywhere for that matter
Stray dogs are a consequence of society not looking at ways to curb the numbers of dogs that end up on our streets
Other more compassionate countries try to prevent these dogs breeding by neuting and spaying - will Thailand's government ever consider this method as a means to reduce the stray population - I doubt it - they are too busy lining their own pockets
As for 2 any one who justifies the use of a loaded firearm to deal with an aggressive/stray dog should be considered a danger to society - far greater than the dog and a period of incarceration should be mandatory - will this happen - the wealthy elite always take care of their own so much the same answer as for stray dogs
Some people think they are above the law
In Thailand the law is often ignored as will be the case for this vulgar act

Departure tax visa fee and now another tax to help take care of all those poor officials

The whole plan is so the police not lose face
It is nothing to do with stricter law enfoecement

Put them all in prison for a year
Maybe they will grow up

Not surprised
It is arrogance and self-centred
We shall do what we want and to hell with opinion outside our borders - this is the mindset
I hope Greenpeace can sabotage their plan and individuals carry out their own sanctions
Don't buy their cars for example or their electronic goods

To those who doubt the validity of teachers (non-Thai) being given less salary than the amount a school can claim as a monthly salary i would suggest that these doubting Thomases visit a school (State or private) and ask teachers for a salary slip or any document outlining payments and deductions and I would be surprised if many could confirm receiving such official documents
In my province English programmes are sold to parents claiming that the teacher is a native speaker and then they find out the teacher is from France,Ukraine,Russia or Cameroon
Anyone tell me which of these countries have native English speakers

I am afraid that in recent times incidence of violence and crime generally has escalated in Thailand
Thai to farang, Thai to Thai
I think it reflects on more available money and people's greed to get more of it
Obstacles are overcome by turning to violence and low levels of emotional maturity particularly with Thai men leads to increased incidents like this

This situation has happened before
Teaching establishments are more interested in getting the farang started and then creaming a slice off the top as part of the tea money reward. 40 thousand claimed as expenditure 20000 paid to farang - this is monthly salary
This issue of paedophiles hasn't the same seriousness here until an incident on your doorstep occurs

Trump doesn't frighten me
What frightens me is so many people who think he is a good choice for political office
This is the major problem with democracy - too many <deleted> get the right to vote
Karl Marx was correct all those years ago
-
Who thinks up these ideas - Focus on important issues like tourists feeling safe and emphasis on value for money not taxi drivers and bus operators who want to maximise money by lies, threats of violence and tourist lack of knowledge.
This is what puts off tourists. Also poor service - I am sure we all have stories of restaurants saying mai mee or food arriving at different times - buses that detour to accomodate the drivers personal business plan.
Make the roads safe and rid us of the maniacs who drive so senselessly
Alcohol and smoking are for a minority habits that they do on holiday so don't focus on driving them away just introduce smoking only areas and restrict use of alcohol inside government sites - outside having lunch no problem having a beer under the hot sun

This policy change is called social control. A population with no English skills is easier to control. Also easier to corrupt (reallocation of funds set aside for farang salaries) which means more cash for corrupt government officials.
-
The point is that it is better than the population can't speak English as educated people are a threat to the status quo
Retain control and power don't empower. Just read Marx

It is the linking to a bank account that I want to know about
I have bank accounts in Thailand - clarity can I link to those?
Money coming into account -is that OK?
Most important for payments out of PayPal account how can I put funds in?
THai bank debit Yes or No?
If no can I tell PayPal account number of English bank account number and transfer money out of that acccount without telling the English bank
I do not want to have to travel to UK to do that
Thankyou

Start with the banks offering a decent interest rate on savings rather than the pathetic 1%
