Rethinking Thailand’s Defamation Law
Another dinosaur law keeping the oligarch elite above the underlings - the underlings have to rob and kneel in front of the Phooyais and such laws make it crystal clear. If there is "misunderstanding" among the Phooyais, it is a welcome deviation smoke screen as well so defamation keeps the truth out. Your call!

Thai tourism suffers amid Israel conflict and Bangkok shooting, visa exemption offers hope
Well, the visa waiver ......... you have to do A LOT MORE to get tourists than just waive the visa. All has been written, repeated and repetitions of the repetitions have been also written endlessly. You can paint a penguin green but it remains a penguin and not a frog - me thinks!

Chinese Tourist Arrivals Plunged Nearly 30% Week Over Week
Anything goes in this country for an explanation, why it does not work as anticipated ...... or it was a misunderstanding.

PM says all Thais in Israel can be rescued as war is declared with fears of an even wider conflagration
Get the Israeli Ambassador in for clarification - on a daily basis - and wear her out until she moves things back at "head office". Works wonders and that is what diplomacy is all about.

Government considers evacuation options for Thais in Israel
a) an A340 can carry certainly more than 140pax b) if Israel denies landing rights, then send ElAl packing out of Bangkok and Phuket - trust me, you will get fifth freedom rights beyond Israel

Gaza 'soon without fuel, medicine and food' - Israel authorities
Do the Israeli expect a medal for their encroachment as well as declaring more than 1'000 UN resolutions as toilet tissue paper?

Gaza hospital deluged as Israel retaliation kills and wounds hundreds
As in the Bible - eye for an eye: nothing learnt ever since. It was Israel which encroached Palestine and not the other way round. Wondering now, why the Palestinians retaliate? I fully agree with Palestine's position - likewise I condemn their latest action to the fullest. Only once the Israel-lobby is being cut off the yearly USD 24 billion from their zionist brethren across the Atlantic - only then there might be hope that they come to reason but, until then, it is how Kissinger always said. Not important who wins or loses, important is having a war. Latter feeds millions of Americans through their ammo and war gear industry.

Former culture minister Itthiphol Kunplome freed on bail after indictment on corruption charges
The court accepted the case and asked the former minister whether he would find a lawyer by himself, to which he said he would. My guess is that this little story will fizzle away as everything else here. He, his brother and his father were/are wearing invisible crowns so nicely pampered with some non-receiptable contributions by the thankful citizen of Bangsaen, Cholburi and ..... in this particular sweetheart's case - Pattaya. Latter the ultimate resort for family vacation and known of the butterfly farm on highway 7 ????

Former Move Forward party leader told not to interfere with government in helping Thais in Israel
Can it be assumed, that Shinapat Kitlertsiriwattana is not good friends with Pita? Let Thailand take care of the humanitarian needs of her people in that region but keep the nose out of this conflict. It is impossible to explain, that Palestine's motives are understood and correct yet the execution a hopeless disaster to be condemned to the fullest. But it is like Ukraine, 20+ years of watching, how NATO broke a promise to the extend, that their "non-expansion to the East" after 1990 (when the Soviets agreed to the reunification of Germany) was nothing but hot air as the Warsaw Pact had no members left 2009. Get the official America in Washington DC and the East coast out of all those world's conflicts while Thailand should do everything possible to get its citizens out - everything else is to be left between the haggling parties to sort out their mess by themselves - without the 24 billion USD yearly so kindly availed by the zionist friends in the US - me thinks.

Chinese nuclear-powered sub disaster, 55 dead in the Yellow Sea, a wakeup call for Thailand
Puzzled, to say the least: what is the difference between "Beijing and Chinese officials" is anyone in Thailand aware, that for the price of ONE SUBMARINE, you can pay for TWO ENTIRE RAILWAYS systems which were built by the Chinese from 2016-2021 across Laos with hundreds of bridges and tunnels. Unlike Thailand, Laos had no existing railway system which could have been upgraded, i.e. they started from scratch. the Germans will not supply any engines whatsoever; that has to do with the soured relations between Germany and China on the behest of the absolutely incompetent German foreign minister. She thought that she had to put her big nose into China's domestic affairs on how to run their country while commenting in a less-than-favourable manner on the Chinese brother number one. Did not go down well in China and the Germans will pay for that faux-pas straight through their nose in the near future. the entire Thai submarine story is such a farçe for the sake of making a handful of goons very, very, very rich again shallow days ahead - literally Your call!

Certificate of Residence Documents
Why do you not check TM1234.5678? Sooooo many alien, dirty farang and other ATM-machines on two feet are sick and tired of this bureaucratic manure. The straw breaking the camel's back is in the taxation cloud the boys on weed are dreaming of - combined with the landing tax upon arrival. For how stupid does the official Thailand think all those non-Thais are?

Former Thai Ambassador to Denmark murdered
Anutin's remark was made in Chiang Mai, while his populistic face-exposing road show stint handing out face masks in downtown Bangkok was simply not understood by the alien. I never take any handout of anybody in public, be it around the BTS or shopping centres and, in all fairness, Anutin is not as well-known and recognizeable as i.e. Elvis Presley or Mahatma Ghandi - just yet! I might have given it a miss simply because if I believe in face masks, then I am getting there without handouts. Thais are very clean on themselves, correct - and that's where matter ends. Aliens (South Asians in particular) have at times unpleasant body odor related to their cuisine of preference and some, no smokes about that, could take two showers a day. Thai toilets have not scored top prizes either so let's leave it, where it belongs. There are cleaner and less clean people - little one can do about it!

US moves warships closer to Israel after Hamas attack
Any clue on how to evacuate all those officials in Washington DC and along the East coast ..... not from the conflict zone but out of this universe. Ever since 1945 the official America has been warmongering and on a destructive blazing path through literally almost all continents, except Australia that is. Nobody ever queried the US "defense" budget of $880+ B I L L I O N per year. According to the official US understanding, Hamas are to be fought ever since 1950 in Persia, 1953 in Korea, 1964 in Indochina etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. Get the yanks to mind their own business, clean up their tremendous domestic mess, stop with all this political correctness nonsense, use their taxpayers money for better use like education - but we all know, why nothing will ever happen unless they go belly up financially.

Mongolia opens honorary consulate in Phuket, boosting ties
Expect nonstop flights from Ulan Bataar to Phuket, every hour to the hour. Wondering how many Mongolians have consular needs in Phuket considering the limitations of the honorary character of the diplomatic outpost. But then, it does not any harm to anybody .........

Former Thai Ambassador to Denmark murdered
Well, if the minister of public health refers to caucasians as "dirty farang" ........ You certainly got that right; no political correctness manure here - to which I fully and wholeheartedly agree. Avoids misunderstandings in a country, which is usually known for misunderstandings ????

Democrat demands probe into Thaksin’s hospital stay amid preferential treatment claims
Well, it is the remuneration to Dr Thaksin for ensuring, that the party with the most votes ...... sits in the opposition. Looking at Google Earth I cannot identify a swimming pool with 100% accuracy, one rooftop is blurred out in blueish - but why bother, when the Royal Bangkok Sports Club is next door ........ I hope someone tells the government goons, that the internet is accessible also outside Thailand and the whole "imprisonment" is nothing but a farçe of superior soap opera quality ...... how sporty of Dr T to take the future of Thailand for swimming lessons ????

Tourism fee fund to be fast-tracked after payouts to families in the Siam Paragon mass shooting
Well, it also might replenish the "horn of plenty" when it comes to the election promise of forking out 560 BILLION Thai Baht in digital cash for each and every Thai citizen above 16 years of age. So, in essence, the non-Thais, alien or dirty farang (whatever you want to call them) pay for promised vote buying .... or am I getting it wrong all over again?
-
Tourism fee fund to be fast-tracked after payouts to families in the Siam Paragon mass shooting
So let me get this right: the Thai government decided to compensate a given amount for something which is not the government's fault paid with taxpayers money (as the government does not generate own funds) Now they don't want to pay any more taxpayers money (which was uncalled for in the first place): so when a non-Thai is getting killed, the compensation payment is borne by other non-Thais with a landing tax Thailand's tourism industry is suffering from decades of: degrading service steadily increased pricing on two different levels and presently has two segments being zero-dollar tourism by the millions by the red brethren in the North and two segments of the Russian tourism cake those who cannot splurge money in Western Europe due to travel sanctions (the fatter cats in Phuket) those who do not want to go to war and resort to be out of Russia for the time being (the poorer lot in Pattaya) What kind of excellent weed is presently smoked in all those tourism-related government offices to come up with introducing an arrival/landing tax without any service/product to back up the take?

Former Thai Ambassador to Denmark murdered
"Asian man of foreign nationality" - H.E. must have had an excellent CCTV set-up or the police some staff with eagle eyes. Very relaxing is - after all - that it, by all accounts, was not a Thai citizen committing the crime ........ "Asian man of foreign nationality" - let that sink in for a moment ????

Internal feud rocks Pheu Thai Party: Chalerm Ubumrung severs ties with Thaksin Shinawatra
I am fully aware of those football fields - hence the reference to the "tiny" plot for his 55 (some 20 years ago) luxury vehicles. Is it not nice to know, that the government has remuneration packages of eight and nine digit amounts for the truly dedicated?
