Thailand police crackdown on pornographic content production
I’d avoid the child pornography site if I were you. That is no frivolous matter and whichever of the group was involved in that should get some very serious punishment. Adult porn is just people doing what people do.

Dual Pricing in Thai Tourism: Economic Necessity or Hidden Bias?
Ever tried entering Singapore Gardens on the Bay as a foreigner residing in the country? Discounts are for nationals only. Nobody is premium pricing foreigners, everybody is discounting for domestic nationals. or so they say 🤔

Dipped below 800k for money in bank method
If you have a very healthy balance over 800k for an extended period of time, then you might well get away with such a small shortfall for such a short period of time. After all, each extension is at the discretion of the IO. I’d whack the balance up to 1.5 mil for 6 months to show I have enough money and then throw myself on the mercy of the IO. Failing that, 30k to an agent is the convenient way to go

British Man Arrested for Sexual Assault of 6-Year-Old Thai Stepdaughter
Yup, the video posted on social media, which was discovered by the U.K. agency and used to tip off the Thai police, in no way indicates he is guilty until such time as there is a full blown trial. is that what you are saying? If so, just take a moment to reflect.

Stray Dogs Attack Tourists Daily on Koh Muk
Agreed. For a lot of Soi dogs being put down is a release from a life of suffering and disease. Some of the dogs that I see in Isaan villages are in a terrible state.

Stray Dogs Attack Tourists Daily on Koh Muk
Why don’t the locals do something? Why does it have to be the government. Might be a long time waiting for action on that front. Unless netizens get outraged by a viral video. If that happens action will be initiated immediately

You think they deserve respect after getting themselves in that state? They are just lucky nothing untoward happened to them. And where were their friends? No wing person?

Pattaya Flourishes from Quiet Fishing Village to Vibrant Tourist Hub
No mention of Pattayas principal industry of prostitution? It started during the Vietnam R and R destination during the Vietnam war as referenced in the article and has indeed flourished since that date. Quiye why such a random article should make headlines today, I have no idea 🤷♂️

Scottish holidaymaker’s scooter disaster in Koh Pha Ngan
Like most these stories I don’t really understand the details of the accident. Another motorbike came hurtling out of nowhere and hit him? Oh, but he was live-streaming a tik tok video at the time. And he also blames faulty brakes….on his bike presumably. makes no sense whatsoever. Hope he gets better but, dude, these days who DOESNT know riding a motorbike in Thailand is dangerous?

Three Dead, Dozens Injured as Steel Beams collapse on Rama II Road
Classic Thailand. Put up a sign saying “safety first” and that’s it, job done in terms of health and safety. Someone dies in an accident and the reaction is “but, but, but, we put up a sign. How could this happen?”

DBD to Investigate 27,000 Thai Nominee Businesses in 2025
Don’t be ridiculous. These crackdowns are announced every six months or so. A few obvious trading entities that are really foreign owned will be confiscated because they get up the nose of local Thai businesses. One off house owning companies fly well under the radar because they do no harm.

DBD to Investigate 27,000 Thai Nominee Businesses in 2025
So out of more than 26,000 companies examined so far, 127 are seemingly dodgy. Sufficient evidence of wrong doing to warrant a full blown crackdown using software yet to be developed and projected to be available in 6 months?
