and that is the real problem. Give people the opportunity to make a real living and then they will not have to encroach in order to live off the land.

Corrections Dept Defends Good Care Despite Hunger Striker Netiporn's Death
I smile when I read this in the articles. An autopsy does not usually happen in Thailland. They are expensive. When my wife died in her sleep, there were a few issues about releasing her body. Usually to do with money being required. We were eventually told that there would need to be an autopsy and that the body would be released after that. Money please. In the end, I had to call on some 'influential' people to get her body released. (Family had flown from the UK and they needed to go back.) There was no autopsy. No report. But there was an extra charge for the additional week's 'storage' in the morgue at the government hospital. In this case, as it is a high profile one, I am sure that there will be some sort of an autopsy - but will the published results and cause of death be the real ones?

Detained Political Activist Nethiporn Suffers Cardiac Arrest Amid Hunger Strike
Very sad that this young lady died. Even more sad that we have the embarrassing flowery AI prose to describe what has happened. RIP young lady. May your passing not be in vain.

Gone totally deaf in my ‘good’ ear…….?
Sorry to hear that. I have been 'half' deaf since birth and the thought of loosing my good ear does worry me. I have not had a total loss. Just a few 'problems' now and again which sorted themselves out. The bad bit for me is that the good ear has tinnitus now. Have you been swimming during your travels? Good luck with your problem - hope that a solution appears soon.

Discord in Discussion: Minimum Wage Hike Sparks Intense Debate
Always amazing how those that do not run a business seem to assume that all employers are rich. I pay myself the minimum salary that I need in order to get a legal work permit. I do not siphon money off and I do not have a 'tax haven'. I pay all my taxes and I also pay those of the staff. There are lots of employers similar to me.
