This was just a vote buying ploy ,Thaksin realised long ago give the public

populist policies ,use Government money and you don't have to use your

own money to buy votes ,that was the norm before then ,as with all populist

policies before there will be shrinkage ,thats a given ,then the Thai Government

will be saddled with even more debt for years ahead.......when the 10 K has been

 long gone..

Plenty of thunder and lightning up in Chiang Mai last night ,windy with light rain,

which also meant the electric went off ,first one of the year ,so not looking good

with the rainy season on the way , Thailand always talking about hubs,hubs that,

about going into space ,wish they would get the easy things done first ,reliable

utilities ,everytime the wind blows or rains the electric is off , then the water, I can

piss harder than what comes out our taps , we have to have pump on all the time....

Once again spending money to put fires out , what about preventing them from happening in

the first place ,one thing Thailand is not is Proactive , just rush to sort things out after they have happened. 

 1,800 rangers ,add police and army ,well they are not very busy at moment , give them some drones ,set

up road blocks , just be in the areas to be a deterrent ,make it illegal for villagers to be in the forests at this

time of year ,  

In another story on here  4 years and a big fine for having a sea fan , set the place ablaze ,affect peoples

health you get what ? been so few caught and you never hear what sentence they get

You're normally a sensible poster so it's disconcerting to observe you carrying water for the CP group while simultaneously casting all the blame upon the poor villagers who are simply trying to make a living. To suggest it's mushroom picking that is causing the fires to this extent is absurd.

 

You want to change the climate via rain-seeding airplanes? Might as well invest in Aboriginal raindancers to come and have a jump about for all the good that will do.

 

Drones, police and rangers to observe the fires that any idiot could simply go to a website showing the latest satellite imagery to observe? Why? What's the point? They know where they are, I could list the ones for yesterday if you like.

 

There is only one reason for such large-scale burning and that is cropping for commodities including corn, cassava, sugar cane, watermelon and other crops for the agro-industries in Thailand, China and Vietnam. These commodities are mostly grown via contract farming with small-scale middlemen who contract farmers to clear and plant the land then buy the crop. The crop is eventually sold to larger agro-industrial conglomerates such as the CP Group. CP Group doesn't contract farmers directly, since they're too huge, and it provides them with a degree of separation. Chinese industry and agriculture companies are not easily identified, controlled and boycotted. Everyone along this chain is making money including the authorities from village and district level upwards.

So you tell me how you're going to stop that. Except put away the fantasy solutions that haven't the slightest chance of occurring or doing anything about the actual problem. And stop blaming the villagers. You should understand by now who has the power and who makes the real money from this, and it ain't them.

"You want to change the climate via rain-seeding airplanes? Might as well invest in Aboriginal raindancers to come and have a jump about for all the good that will do"    read what i wrote I never said use rain seeding planes , That's what the Government said.

'Drones, police and rangers to observe the fires that any idiot could simply go to a website showing the latest satellite imagery to observe? Why? What's the point? They know where they are, I could list the ones for yesterday if you like." , i don't want them to use drones to see fires , BUT catch those going into the

forests to set fires ...

It seems to you we are doomed , nothing will change anything , I would hope one day something will

be done , and I am not giving up on that .

I used to know whereabouts of some shops but when I need one they seemed to have

vanished ,I don't actually need gutters ,but just a piece of tin bent in 90 degree angle

to cover gap that has opened up between the house and an extension ,had it covered

with the black wide sticky rubber tape but it does not last . thanks in advance .

I've said it before, but I will say it again, just for you :

 

I have many properties throughout Thailand.

 

And yes, some are indeed condos.

 

Now, if you can tell me which one I was staying at when I made that post then you will get some brownie points..

I'll say it was the bedsitter .....close ?
