The auctions are secret & only the police/generals are invited. I am appalled (but not surprised) that the Thai Justice system, AKA Baht, is allowing him to continue to enjoy the benefits of his corruption.

You cannot educate dog owners; they are blinded by sentimentality. Thailand is 80 years behind Europe in dog legislation/enforcement because of people like you. The average uneducated Thai sees nothing wrong with allowing dogs to run freely in traffic; to defecate/urinate anywhere even in school playgrounds; owners are deaf to their pets' noise throughout the night. This insensitivity, I suggest, is not solely due to emotion but perhaps a lack of intelligence?

It tastes as good coming up as it does going down (after 12 pints.)

A former brother-in-law used to make a living out of making the local police arrest stats look good. He would confess to a variety of crimes and get paid 300 baht a day in Surin.

Never found one to equal my take-away in Burnley both on taste/quality/price. Why is Indian food so much more expensive than that in UK?

I thought the omnipotent Prayuth had banned these? Would the perpetrator have robbed another disabled male in a rare mano-a-mano?

The photo looks like end of shift at the town hall.

With 40 million baht I could buy a little place in Europe that does not have a crooked police force; roaming packs of (rabid) dogs; annual floods/droughts. Hmn - choices, choices.

His shirt is my favourite number too.

At least RTP is better than Columbia and India! What an achievement!

The 2nd charge is the more serious one and sometimes carries the death penalty.

Another triumph for local Plod.

Another 2nd class citizen punished by Thai maleness for saying no.

I thought Plod didn't work on Fridays? How many did they catch on the other days?

Another day in the life of Thai police; they all suffer from a serious medical condition called 'shuteye.'

I spoke to one family of tourists on the Navy beach Sattahip. They were horrified that the beach wasn't free & scandalised that Thais paid 50% less than them. I don't think they'll be back.

RTP can't stay out of the headlines for long.

Seriously? He said this with a straight face?

And they're just putting in the foundation stone now? No wonder Thai constructions don't stand for very long.

Only one out of these three aims will be achieved.

Meanwhile the owners/officials who facilitated this disregard for safety rules remain untouched by the BIB.

at 3am? I bet it was a dignified saunter.

There's a lot of these about except at weekend and during the hours of darkness.

Yaroo - break out the blankets.

of any sum bigger than 100 baht.
