Why are some members having a go at the mans nationality?

A thief is a thief no matter what country he is from.

Every country has the same problems, so his nationality is irrelevant.

BANGKOK, June 7 (TNA) – Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha apologized to people if he worried them and promised he would do his best

Sad thing is he has been promising to do his best since may 2014, so far he has done sod all.

What I'm trying to defend are the facts as stated in the original Thai Visa post on Saturday which was based on the Daily News article https://www.dailynews.co.th/regional/847828. You are twisting those facts because of your obvious hatred of the RTP.

 

I've had three encounters with RTP over a period of thirty years plus numerous check points and on every occasion the RTP conducted themselves friendly and professionally.

 Substance abuse is a terrible thing, you should think about that, it makes people come up with ridiculous statements.????

Well what a surprise cctv not working, and plod floundering around in the deep end, awaiting envelopes to appear.

A review of cold cases has resulted in the arrest of a Thai taxi driver who stole more than 100,000 baht in cash from an Australian man three years ago,

Well well, that is certainly a different than normal taxi driver story.????

Normally it is taxi drivers finding then returning a hundred thousand baht.

Wonder how T.A.T. will spin this one.

Police are accelerating the investigation into the deaths of a Thai-Indian couple who were found drowned in a pool on Koh Tao.

Police are accelerating the investigation why?

Local plod have already said it was a tragic accident.

Once again plod spouting off before even bothering to check out any facts, bunch of useless #####.

However, the government says that any shortages will be made up with imported vaccines and that all that have registered to receive their jabs will be able to do so without delay.

Stop it please, stop posting nonsense like the above, i am trying to drink my coffee, it is impossible to do whilst reading nonsense.????????????????

I have had many experiences.

 

Last week I had 2 nights in hospital, in a private room so my wife was with me all the time.

 

After my op I was unable to move much coz my back was hurting too much. There was a table by my side about 2 feet away from my bed with my glasses & phone on it. During the night, I heard my glasses fall to the floor. I am certain that neither I or my wife had touched the table.

 

The next day my wife & I talked about it, & thought it was a bit odd.

 

Later that day my wife went to 7 & bought a medium size plastic food box & put it on another table on the other side of the room.

 

While she was having a shower, the box fell off the table, despite it being a long way from the edge.

You need more water in your drink, or need to cut down on it.????????????????????

overnment spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri said today (Saturday) that Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha attached importance to supporting the capability of Thailand,

Importance???? My backside, only thing he cares about is himself, hanging on to power by what ever means possible, both legal and otherwise, and his MASSIVE offshore accounts.

The Office of the Attorney-General (OAG) has decided to indict government chief whip and Palang Pracharat MP Wirat Rattanaseth, his wife and 82 other individuals for involvement in alleged corruption in the construction of futsal courts in several northeastern provinces.

Only 82 !!!! What about the many thousands more involved in similar activities?

If every corrupt individual was brought to account, there would be few innocent people left.

Thai police are not so bad, problem is most westerners  just cant get their heads around the fact that the police are working to a completely different script than the police back home . You are not the people who will change things, it's better you learn how the system works and integrate accordingly. Its not that difficult (or expensive) to keep the BiB sweet 

 

Conversely I  its quite difficult and very expensive to keep western police sweet ,  Imagine what would happen to you in the U.K. for example if you were to offer a police officer a small amount of money say £25  to overlook a motoring offence.

 

Give me the Thai way any day ,  for those that don't agree I suggest you learn some Thai and make some Thai friends (ideally policemen) life really gets easier , and its more fun than moaning on here

What ever substance you are using.... Stop now please, it is making you post absolute nonsense.

you are lucky enough to be staying legally in Thailand. Police we have come in contact have been extremely helpful and dedicated in their jobs and responsibility. Perhaps, the police in your home country have sowed doubts into you long before you came here.

Please stop posting comments like that, especially to me.

Had 2 occasions being involved with the corrupt police here, first time a senior policeman accepted money and got me jailed, second time serious road accident, police involved lied about how it happened.

Police have initially determined it was a tragic accident

Pathetic isnt it? Police determined it was a tragic accident.

Of course they did, anything else would mean the lazy sods would have to do some work.

Phones going crazy, come on chaps drop what ever you are doing chance of a photo op.????

Two women got stopped coming in on fake documents.... WOW, BIG deal, so why does it need all them numpties having to be there?

Sad fact is they have nothing better to do with their time.

How  can they improve the image with him involved?

Sounds a bit fishy, just like the borrowed watches.

Long past time the silly old buffer was put out to grass, as he is long past his useful date.????????

Standing in a line at any Big C, Tops or Tesco here, the answer is no. The checkout chicks obviously don't have any clock on them, they frequently chat to a neighbor or friend while other people wait.

Go into any Aldi store in Australia, the target all checkout staff have to meet is 3000 items an hour.

Apply that standard in Thailand, and every checkout person here would be fired after one day.

I totally disagree with you, i can only comment on my local big C.

Now i find the checkout girls hard working/ helpful, never see them on their phones or chatting with others.

They go out of their way to assist me, checking the items/ filling my LARGE bag, putting it on my scooter, tying the bag so nothing falls out.

Your comment about applying Aussie standards here is ridiculous in my opinion.

Instead of standing there like a bunch of wallies, just making sure to get in the photo op, kick your a##es into gear and get the vaccines where they should be, in the people.

Pathetic situation when a photo op is more important than peoples well being.

Does this man never stop spouting nonsense?

No foreign tourists numpty, nobody is interested in it.

People are only interested in getting the vaccine, and money to feed their families.
