Reading the article, although it's badly written and not very clear, I think she was a passenger on the moped. Helmet is not mentioned at all.

Famous Thai rock band Carabao to disband in March
edwinchester replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
That's for sure. Several years ago my wife and I were at one of their concerts in a nearby village when one of her friends came running over and said that I should leave right now as a few of the locals were planning to beat up the farang in the audience. I made a hasty retreat and got home unscathed. -

Surely if their last concert is on April 1st they're disbanding in April not March. -
I used to ride with a couple of the local cycling clubs and can say they were all very responsible riders, rode single file except when overtaking and all had front and rear lights on their bicycles. They know more than any foreigner the danger to cyclists on Thai roads and regularly advised me of those dangers. If you don't have time to react to a hazard when taking a bend you're driving too fast simple as that.

Thailand’s digital wallet project: Green light to make cash splash
edwinchester replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Just an inspired guess based on past handouts. Agree with the sentiment in your post though except that I'd wager the 10k wouldn't even last a couple of days if it were handed out in one go. -

Not if the 10k is drip fed to recipients over many months. No way will the Govt drop everyone the whole wad at once. Best guess would be 300 bht per week or 1k a month. -
Flu outbreak sweeps Thailand: OCP9 reminds ‘mask up’ to stay well

Unlikely because only those who tested covid+ were included in official figures for covid infections. -
Senator Porntip asked to leave restaurant in Iceland

Political views are fine but when somebody is put in such a position of power without any form of election by the public and then uses that power to help overturn the will of the people then they must be called to account and shown for what they are. -

This is what happens when there is next to zero enforcement of laws. Until everyone is led to believe that there are actually consequences for their actions it will continue. -

"He was the leader of the Student Federation of Thailand in 1998/9 and a founder and editor of the Fah Diew Kan political magazine." I'm sure there are supporters of the previous administration already scouring these sources for political dirt in the hope of a charge that disqualifies him from political life.

Probably because hospitals and clinics are very reluctant to carry out an atk test for whatever reason. We all tested for covid when we got sick as we got a warning we'd been in contact with a victim.
