In terms of politics and law enforcement, mostly due to the lack of transparency. In terms of their industries, lacking the ability of "value adding". Thailand is known to be caught up in the state of "middle income trap". Showed some remarkable "development" since 1990s. However, it was mostly done by the external inputs alone; by technology transfer(foreign manufacturers built factories here. and built up of infrastructures by foreign firms). Almost none attained by themselves. On the other hand, remaining in the status of the 3rd World won't really be that bad. Because of that, Thailand only has to pay a lot lower license fee for the local production of the generic medicines. That is why over the counter doses are often quite inexpensive here. And that way, expats like us are also its beneficiaries. So better not to complain, be thankful instead.

Ukraine’s Fate Was Sealed Long Before Aid Was Cut
black tabby12345 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Trump, could well be another dementia sufferer. Until yesterday, outstandingly Pro Poo-tin. Today, started to condemn the master he serves. And suggesting "tough" sanction. While it has been already in place since 2022. And it effectively crippled Russian military production; their access to essential free-world made electronics blocked. So they cannot build any new fighter planes, tanks, APCs, and naval ships. They also suffer dire shortage of funds needed for them. Then, they had to "import" munitions from Iran and N/Korea. -

Trump, the first ever President of the Unites States, openly serving Rus interests. The most prominent Foreign Agent Ever Known, in US history while posing a Nationalist. Enemy Within, sent to the Highest Office of America. Now being the 2nd in command, of the 21st Century Hitler without moustache. -
Chiang Mai Airport Authorities Seize 100 kg of Cannabis

I bet, that's the very answer Why some people traffic drugs, risking own future freedom. Just like the cases of any other crimes... -
MP Phanthira Nwamjerm from the People's Party has exposed a troubling situation unfolding in a condominium in Bangkok's Nana area, which is reportedly being rented out for prostitution on a daily basis. So what? This world is simply running on the basis of Demand & Supply. Nothing More, Nothing Less. Hardly looks like a real problem unless it is housing scammers, drug traffickers, or terrorists, and any other outlaws that victimize the innocent.

At this stage, AI is far from Clever Enough. Net banking site's Virtual Assistants(AI) , often cannot understand plain language properly. And they quite frequently request "Rephrase". Even though it might be eventually smarter. While waiting for them to grow Mature Enough, mankind can start to head for extinction. While the lower birth rate of the 3rd world countries will reduce impact on Earth...

Your joke reminded me someone else's quote(another bit more serious and emotional though). Why buy or breed while stray dogs die. -

I first wondered if he is another pervert stealing female underwear. But he turned out to be the "Straight Ordinary" thief after famous brand clothing... -
Some news from this kingdom. Mother sells her underage daughter to clear her debts - Pattaya Mail And among very poor family in Thailand, it is not rare that their daughters work as prostitute in the place like Pattaya and other red light districts of various areas(incl. BKK), to send money to their parents back home. There are heaps of such people from northern and northeastern regions of this kingdom, as well from the background of urban poor. Haven't you heard anything like this by now, while you have been here for ages/ Pretending you are born yesterday?

I have heard something about it many years ago. That attitude is deeply imbedded with their culture; way of their thinking. They often believe that questioning "superior" people is Impolite/Rude. In this context, teachers are well above students, in Thai definition. Asking question felt like that person didn't give them sufficient information. In other words, they feel as shaming him/her for "inadequacy " in public(in front of dozens of boys/girls). Apart from this topic, humiliating(causing loss of face to others) an adult in front of others, is known strictly No-No, in this kingdom.

Hi, thank you for sharing your unique personal experience, with rather complex backgrounds. I am sorry to hear about what has been happening to you in the past few years. Have you thought about possible relocation to somewhere else in Thailand if the current location makes you feel uncomfortable for something you are not responsible for?

Do they have any chances of "Appeal" where the innocent one was wrongly caught up in the automated search net, to prove he/she isn't anything dangerous? At this time, AI is far from perfect. They often mistake harmless comments on YouTube contents, for "Hate Speech". Not every Arab won't be a terrorist/or their sympathizer. Some (westernized one) genuinely escapes from own oppressive home, to the free country. Just a question from my curiosity...

What excites you the most about Thailand?
black tabby12345 replied to 123Stodg's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
One best thing about here to me, being able to practice my own lifestyle undisturbed. And enjoy peaceful and quite life everyday. I have never felt more relaxed than here(anywhere else I have lived/stayed). Thais are known for their leniency to others with differences from them. As long as I respect what they value, they remain good neighbors. Apart from the lower cost of living here, than home country. I would say it is what I appreciate most, rather than something Exciting.
