Google "Racist pricing" and the first hit is from Thailand. #1 Hub!

So just their ages that are being misreported or is there anything else incorrect in the article?

My monies on a lot of ATM's running out of cash come Tuesday next week. Do they restock the machines over public holiday's?

My wife was a licensed ThaiLife Insurance agent. She has various policies that are available to all. She is 45 years old. She pays (Not me!) 3.300 baht per 6 months which covers her for 200,000 baht upon death. 1,690 baht per 6 months for 1,000 baht per night in hospital. She also pays for an extra policy (1,585 per 6 months) to boost the daily hospital stay rate to 3,000 baht per night and this includes 1,000,000 baht for a cancer diagnosis. That's 13,150 baht per year.

Farang can pay in as well. My name has been on the village list for 18+ years of my 22 years in this village. My wife paid 500 baht 'Entry' fee for me to join. The charge per funeral is 20 baht here (Household= 20 baht x 4 pax=80 baht). The fund is currently about 60,000 baht on death. I understand there are no fixed rules and each village can decide (Pooyai Baan) on farang entry to the fund.

Why, at all of the previous cabinet meetings, has this not been raised before? 6 days notice for a country is just so wrong. I don't know where to start with the condemnation I'm feeling for the lost potential.

Thailand's education system has turned a page and this next chapter we're in is very ugly. Such constant sorrow and death everywhere.

Infested.

Things need to be well-oiled to operate 24/7.

Quick, before the MFP get here.....

I'd be very concerned about wind speeds up there during a storm. Particularly in high-sided vehicles.

It's the Chinks in their armour that cause all the problems.

I am all for new techy things. If you choose to follow idiots, yes your wasting your life. If you choose on the other hand with care I can see this as the fastest way to connect with events in real-time. Fantastic; if it can work and be "Friendly."

I qualified as an audio engineer in the 1980's. I produce music now. To keep trim I go to the gym! https://www.soundgym.co/

The music volume is often enough to awaken the dead.

The immigration officers are a highly dangerous breed. It must be that.

How can you keep your teachers' license after admitting to assauting a 5 year old student? She should not be able to walk away from this and join another school. It's refreshing to see the name of the school, for all to see, plastered across the wall!

Bullying is not gender specific and is endemic. Daily news stories of murders, knifings and now overdoses. It makes for very sad reading. Not a word I've seen from the Dept. of Education. Perhaps they missed all the bad publicity whilst there heads were stuck.......(A) up their ar*es. (B) in the sand. (C) glued to TikTok.

So therefore the poor have funding available and the rest don't require it because they have the means to pay for the fees themselves without Government assistance. Money/defaulting is not the issue as I see it. Failure is a factor. Edit: The lending criteria for Student Loans were eased recently to encompass more of the population.

That must be very hard to do with the "Buy Now, Pay Later" scheme available to most Thais! https://www.studentloan.or.th/en/home

I disagree. To prove my point; Kasetsart University (Largest in Thailand) awarded 12,945 undergraduate degrees but admitted 16,403 new undergraduate students (78.9%). A 20+% 'Failure rate.' Kasetsart University in Thailand - US News Best Global Universities

Why deny it was your birthday party when some significant other has gone to the trouble of messaging you on the plate? "Happy Birthday to My Pt the Chadchart"

Having a second look you could well be correct. Also odd is this...... Quote from linked article: "They are old photos from last May, taken during a birthday party for one of our friends." If you look at the writing on the plate (Twist your head!) It says Happy Birthday and his name (Chadchart) right in front of him. It's his birthday cake. An odd thing to forget.

Sad. Another case of bullying to blame. Schools have become dangerous places. Two M2 student murders due to bullying, in different schools, in the last month. How can the homeroom teachers let things get to this stage without earlier intervention?
