  1. The only teachers I have found to help me add to my Thai skills all carry foreign passports. I found the Thai courses given by Thais very regimented and focused on topics, week by week , such as police one week , hospitals the next I found basic communication skills , followed by 3 years of learning Nouns and the Verbs was helpful. Schools didn't focus or were willing to help with the areas of the language I wanted to learn. PS books were useless ( before the internet days ) Now we have apps that are somewhat useful , but often incorrect.
  2. Live in same area, the NOISE and disturbance has been going on for weeks. Signs blocking line of vision at intersections causing driving hazards and, loud speakers playing distorted music every couple of hours through the day . Enough. I can understand why he did this. A bit extreme, but I hope it sends a message to campaigners . QUIETLY PLEASE .
  3. We personally have no nestle products in our home and refuse them in restaurants. In Canada, nestle is a blight on the bottled water trade , taking all and leaving none for some locals. Banning them is a good move. for any reason .
  4. " something that has previously been a challenge, as seen with the mishandled cannabis legalization in 2022. " I thought the legalization of cannabis was done perfectly until it was Legislated to death. I guess to many players watered down the Get Rich fantasies of the fat cats who wanted a big slice of that pie.
  5. It would be nice if elected officials supported their Constituents and not the Party Line. I thought that was how government iwas supposed to operate.
  6. The economic side may be , that the foreigners will avoid these attractions. Still , many will still visit and Pay the higher price. Advantage is the higher income with less people to deal with. Same as oranges , tiny season cuts crop in half , so triple the price of oranges to make it a profitable year. Basic marketing 101.
  7. Maybe short instructional driving commercials on TV, Showing proper road courtesy may help. Simple attempts to help drivers understand and improve driving skills. Slow drivers in the fast lane , refusing to give way is a constant issue I see. It's bedlam on the roads with so many drivers apparently unaware of common courtesy. I liken driving to playing a video game. Amazing Thailand..
