please explain!

Well they did thier part helping cover the disease  up

Trump did the right thing but stoppong funding

China are rhe biggest  hypercryts ever

They even support black luves matter which is a joke comsidering they don't  really give a xxxx about anyone

Seems like they are joining the real objective which is antiTl Trump

I would suggest looking into China for messing with US elections this time

I cant beleive ahe would have walked  all the way up there to kill herself

There was no motorbike no vehicle 

Do forang lives matter? I am offended by the word forang.  I was to RIP down a statue and set card of fire because of it 

The movement names " black lives  matter " are aligned  with terrorist antifa 

I strongly recommend  that Thais stay out of this argument.

I cam to Thailand because I like the nationalistic style of putting Thais first

I respect it and I like it

If you opened your border like UK US and Europe then Thailand will no longer be safe for Thais 

Beleive me nationalism is good

But, I can not go to the store, or mall, or park, or anywhere in my condo without wearing a mask, so Is this doctor trying to say Thailand was misinformed in the beginning and only now the WHO says to wear one.  So f.......confused.  Must I wear a condom when I have sex with my wife, or has the WHO said I do not need one....

WHo obviously serve China 

Cambodia is far more dangerous than thailand

Funny why she chose that country to out line

As long as the baby is wearing amulet it’s not dangerous 

Not even a helmet. I an tolerant to allot of things here but this makes my blood boil 

I can imagine some Thais angry about this also.

Could you imagine if you was the one that crashed into them. Right or wrong having to live with yourself knowing a child was killed

I couldn't live with myself even if the accident wasnt my fault

Just basic commonsense

I would love to show the parents photos of some crash victims 

You can buy a new bike you cannot buy a new child

Interesting thread, but one that I find rather scary, even though I also don't do any law-breaking. Or, at least, not much these days...

 

Two comments stand out to me;

 

@khunPer's comment on how he felt safer in London hit home; my first 'experience' in noticing cameras occurred a very long time ago in the UK as well, although I was up in Edinburgh, Scotland. I was shocked and more than a little perturbed; quite honestly I would not have re-visited the city had it not been for my girlfriend living there. That said, over time I got used to them and did enjoy the feeling of safety, but... What brought me around was the knowledge that I was in the UK, the police were generally quite professional, it was a society that had respect for privacy and rights, there was a serious and identifiable threat (it was the era of British football hooliganism) and the use of the cameras was governed by a public policy process.

 

@Tropicalevo's comment(s) that cameras are everywhere (cars, bikes, etc.) is quite true, but it is a false comparison and a false equivalency to state that an individual camera set up on the dashboard of a car is the same as an entire integrated surveillance system designed to monitor a large area, ie. the island. While it is true that cameras are everywhere these days, and integrated system is entire orders of magnitude more serious and, in my view, more worrying. 

 

CCTV is, to me, a lot like nuclear power. Nuclear power, used one way, is a non-carbon producing means of generating huge amounts of electricity to power our lives. Used another way, nuclear power is utilized in creating the most destructive devices in human history, and two such devices were used in Japan less than a hundred years ago. What matters is the hand behind the curtain...

 

I don't worry about the CCTV cameras too much; as noted above I don't do much illegal these days. However, I do worry about the people and policies behind them. One example from the thread is the probability that a camera will be "not working" in direct proportion to the status of the person asking. Another factor determining whether the camera is working or not will almost certainly be the nationalities of any people caught in a dispute; does anyone want to argue that a Burmese person will have the same 'camera efficiency' as a Thai person? Stories abound in Thailand of mysterious 'brown envelopes'; does anyone want to make the case that the cameras will be used for the benefit of all, and used both fairly and equally? Anyone? Finally, I know of no set of rules, or framework, or general (pun intended) guidelines regarding their use; anyone? The example of a car accident was raised earlier in the thread; is there some sort of process of getting the tape if desired? Do you pay for it? Is it distributed to both parties? Is there (formal or informal) discretion on the part of the officers? As far as I know, the police have the tape and can do whatever they like with it; that doesn't build confidence.

 

This sense of security that several posters have discussed; is it worth it to you? In a country that doesn't have a tradition of respect for individual rights, that has had twenty plus coups in under a hundred years, that has little to no accountability of its security forces, that doesn't really have a free media, that has a reputation for some corruption, and that isn't known for it effective and dispassionate sense of justice? I don't mind saying that I am more than a little uncomfortable with even more tools for surveillance and monitoring of the populace and what those tools might be used for.

 

 

 

 

I don't like them either but you have  to remember  while to goverment  are watching us

Private cctv cameras are watching them.

It sort of evens out but makes me un easy also

You can be naughty without breaking the law.

For example a secret cooperate  meeting. Would have to bypass cctv cameras  from all over the place 

If you had a secret  visitor  to your house

CCTV can also help if your raised and scared of evidence being planted.

I personally don't like them but in a world where everyone has them I need them too

yes it is horrible. but get used to it. we had a big increase in cameras here in Hua Hin about two years ago. 

 

the police actually do track people as they leave the scene of the crime and is some cases all the way to their homes. no need to go outside in the heat. of course only after there is a outcry on Facebook that they do something. 

 

and the cameras are looking at traffic in intersections and recording those very entertaining videos of horrible accidents as Thais speed down the road with no cops in sight.     

They are also mused to find out what happened when there was a vehicle accident 

Not just the government that have extra cctv cameras 

They are on every mobile phone

DVR are In almost every  car

Private CFTC from houses over look roads

Everyone  is being watched even the goverment 

As for tracking foreigners this is BS

The reason why they want bit track foreigners is because Thais are a lot more easier to track. They all have chips ok their ID cards. The government  can find out anything abouts  aby Thais 

Foreigners on the other hand are harder to track than Thais

So forangs stop moaning about being tracked and acting like your  being  picked on because your  not 

Forangs can be more invisible than  Thais 

So stop moaning 

People lost at sea and murder 

There is about 1 % chance of then being alive

With out using an atm card a cell phone or leaving the country 

It is almost impossible to disappear without  a trace unless your trained goverment worker with access to multiple documents

Are you living under a rock?

 

There are many many more deaths with covid-19 than flu.

 

 

More like umonia which was cause by virus

If your so confident there is no covid19 then fine someone that is infected and kiss them

Looks like all the anti thai people that love here have gone quiet. Maybe because the police helped the foraging and the anti thai firings have nothing  to say lol

There you have it, It is all the dirty foreigners fault.  They infected our poor Thai people before they could come home and return to the cradle of no infection.  Bad Farang, no tourism for you.

 

Sill trying to figure out how they were cleared to fly....but whatever, they are here now and getting treatment.

 

 

All countries  have the fear about it coming from airports.

Remember it started in China they are to blame for all of this mess. You and your deep bitterness towards Thailand 

Why don't  you leave as you sound not happy here

The door is that way

Where's  the video????

Why not post the video????

Nope...

 

I was talking about the referendum on the 2017 Thai constitution but Brexit was just the same.

Don't give people all the correct information and then expect them to make a decision.

That way you have a perfect get out of jail free card.

Thailand really needs to start screening foreigners properly before entering the country. There are far too many cases like this.  The other week it was that nutcase from Northern Ireland who butchered  that poor girl to death Pattaya and now this... 

 

The fact is, pretty much anyone one with a criminal background can so easily enter this country. Peado's, rapists, murderers, drugs dealers, con artists, you name it there are loads of them out here. 

 

Calme down. Many people have criminal records doesnt mean they are still criminals

Maybe if he was mentally ill then the country he came from should take responsiblity for lettint a crazy person onto the streers get a passport and travel anywherr in the world

3 words  to fix  this 

Bring thaksin back

They should not  be allowed  back

So people can have the day off work. The place that they work is already  closed 

A day off having a month off lol

Didn't  expect  anyone  to watch the video  but was watched 7 million times
