That why it has to be on paper so it is documented but this system is not fool proof need honest people to run this but until a culture war nothing will happen

Correct Thailand has lots of Specification, laws, and Safety Protocols That is Not the problem it is lack of enforcement and lack of education in the implementation nobody want to know !!!

And That is the Problem why Thailand will always be a 3 world country and nothing will change "The People don't care "

Oh no this is a Quality tourist type of people to come to Thailand

What a ridiculous statement I did not read about him saying to anyone he is seeking medical attention the government house speaker said this, even if the did say this what is the point its his PRIVATE business And AGAIN I say you are Innocent till proven guilty its his Business until the courts say otherwise

Another poster who does not think before posting Gambling is a disease and treatment if the person wants, up to the individual, and i am told Thailand is a democracy so should it not be looking after its people

Please tell how can you stop him !! thought you are Innocent till proven guilty or is this more of BS

so you are saying the rest of the world where casinos are allowed is morally a scourge What a load of BS

Thailand's gradual introduction over the past 15 years of regulations for bus safety laid out by the UNECE, the UN Economic Commission for Europe, a body responsible for establishing international standards in many areas. But application of these rules have been slow and piecemeal. “The problem is most of the manufacturers in Thailand cannot reach that standard,” “Also, the regulations only apply to new buses. There are No regulations on old buses any unqualified backyard mechanic can do anything they want and its not against the law even the most western standards for checking CNG is Not a pressure test as you would expect its only visual Inspection surprised me as a mechanical QA/QC manager

You will never hear any more !! example did you hear anything about the Tunnel collapse killing three guys NO !! once out of the press that's it nothing all quite back to normal

Stupid post on a serious subject shame on you

Bit of a wild statement "There is simply no real fundamental cultural demand for safety" i would try saying that to the victims It is simply every ones responsibility for safety

so you are saying they do not want to punish him whats the point then to arrest him Thai logic !!!

Doh ! he is out of the country

I can not understand People who Post with out doing research Thailand has a "OMBUDSMAN" go away and do your research before posting just makes you look stupid Office of the Ombudsman Ratthaprasasanabhakti Building (Building B) 120 Chaengwattana Road, Laksi District, Bangkok 10210, Thailand

What a laugh (democracy is alive and well ) What democracy !!! Thailand is NOT a Democracy in you dreams

Corruption is only a small part of the problem, "safety is everybody responsibility" and there lies the problem the mind set of the Thais has to change to look after each other to question "Is this safe" to point out hold on I should switch off before i work on machinery ect. it is actually called Occupational health and safety (OSH) which Thailand Has Thailand is governed by a combination of laws, regulations, and best practices. The key regulatory framework includes the Occupational Safety, Health and Environment Act B.E. 2554 (2011) and various Ministerial Regulations that refine and specify certain facets of OSH. but is it Enforced NO !! will it change NO!! Why lives are cheap in Asia nobody interested

Why can they not Trial in absentia

Looking at the standards for nvg vehicle its ALL Visual inspections the only Pressure test is when its installed so i don't know How u get a pressure test every year think you a bit of Bull Shxx and it is a comprehensive visual inspection of each joint you need to read the Inspection standards before giving bull

Well If they do a pressure check !! I can not see the point if as you say they cannot check the inaccessible joint to me that is a failed test NOT checking the whole system whats the point of only check part Thai logic

She was arrested on charges of impersonating a public official by wearing a uniform to deceive others into believing she had official authority. Why hasn't Thaskin been arrested he worn his white uniform

What you say is true, But the more greed and corruption the more lives are lost the only way to stop it is the people not governments you have seen what happens if the people try to put in a government they want it will happen time and time again the people need to change and Not accept bribery and corruption but will this happen No!! so same same plenty of lives left !!!

Thailand has lots of Standards and specifications,also safety protocols but it is the Enforcement and educationally awareness that is lacking also the willingness of the Thai people to change there attitude

Totally correct the cost of a new bus is very expensive although the bus is safe as it will be built to UN R118 standard which Thailand has adopted, but not many are built as Thailand is struggling to meet this Standard plus this is ONLY for NEW busses, Old Busses do not have Any standard so that is why they are bombs ready to go off any back yard mechanic can work on old busses

No problem lots of hateful posters on here just report them to mods
