Thaksin Virtually Held Hostage With Lese Majeste Lawsuit: NIDA Academic
Maybe, with any luck, he'll be appointed to the Privy Council. Then he can avoid any jail time like his nemesis Prayut, though he may have to wait in line behind Prawit.

Thailand battles highest bile duct cancer rate in Southeast Asia
I was way healthier living in my small town back in the US, food here is questionable at best, toxins are a given, and stress is off the charts.

Thaksin sparks online debates for being released on parole
Which is why the country should declare the last coup illegal, imprison for life the coup leaders and supporters, and remove all appointments to political positions made since. Then restart elections and move forward.

Thaksin Exempt from EM Bracelet Due to Illness and Age
Thai's are the masters of lying with a straight face, so I'm not surprised.

Thaksin Exempt from EM Bracelet Due to Illness and Age
I'd be more worried about what his wealth and private jets could do, but hey, illness and age means he won't use either to escape, OK. Or are parolees allowed to travel or leave the country at whim?

Thaksin freed on parole and returns to Ban Chan Song La residence
Oh good, no more of those lower-class 5 Star hotels, back to the "Champagne Wishes and Caviar Dreams!" lifestyle.

Maybe allow the stateless ethnic groups embedded within Thailand to become officially Thai would help.

Duct tape works wonders, every plane I am sure has a roll or two 😉

Unruly British man goes berserk on Bangkok-London flight (video)
When you have low-cost(class) airlines, you are bound to attract low-class people to fly on them. Going back this April, and I made sure not to book any flights there on the "budget" airlines.

PM Points Out Problems Related to Chinese Goods
He needs to figure out that China is not a friend of Thailand, or anyone for that matter, they are only here to take everything they can steal or take by force.

New Govt Tourist Insurance to Cover Deaths and Accidents
B.S. - I have been hit 3 times by dumb Thai drivers merging into my lane without looking or signaling, all 3 lied to the police, just showed the cop my dashcam video footage each time, and all 3 instances went in my favor. I literally had one guy jump out and see me, and says "farang, farangs fault!", he was excited and thought he hit the jackpot, he entered from an exit ramp and then tried to drive perpendicular across 3 lanes of traffic on Chaengwattanna road without a blinker straight into my left rear door. He refused to give my insurance guy his information or license, so we all went to the Pak Kret police station, he got a talking to from the RTP about how to merge properly after they watched my video footage.

American woman’s life-changing adventure in Thailand
Well, she is definitely going to be on the Immigrations list of undesirables now. How did she get in with just $7 and more than likely no hotel room booking, and has stayed here for 5 months?

Government to encourage couples to have children as birth rate declines
Like all governments, they rely on more and more serfs/peasants to exist, just like a virus. The world's resources are not infinite, time to learn to live within our means. We already have 1.2 billion people living in poverty, what sense does it make to increase the population?

No EM Ankle Bracelet For ‘Untouchable’ Thaksin
A man who lived years in other countries on self-imposed exile, with billions in cash at his disposal, is not a flight risk?!

Student network demands the facts on Thaksin’s true medical condition
They are on a need to know basis, and they don't need to know.

Why release of Thaksin could be a tipping point for Thai politics
It will take decades for this to be fixed, long after all the dinosaurs are dead and in the ground.
