Not quite correct. Siem Reap was never part of Thailand. It was, for a short time, controlled by the then Thai King but it was not part of Thailand. The name Siem Reap translates as "victory over Siam". Given by the Cambodian King when the Thais were repelled. The reason many Thais near to the now border with Cambodia speak Northern Khmer is because it's their heritage. Parts of lower Isaan were in Cambodia, until Thailand moved the border south. Hence the disputed claim on Khmer temples along the border. Built by Northern Khmers (Cambodians) but now within Thai borders.

No, it didn't. The area of modern Siem Reap was once controlled by the Thai king but it was never "in Thailand".

People do not pay in to a scheme. They pay 30 baht for treatment when they need it.

In no way am I condoning the teacher's actions but, there must be more to this incident. Firstly, I'm surprised there is no video evidence. Surely the students would have taken the opportunity to get their phones out. Secondly, was it only that one student? As a teacher of over 20 years, and one that has quite possibly taught at the school in question, my experience tells me that Thai classrooms can be brutal. The lower end of the grading spectrum is very demanding. Students paying no attention, not doing what's asked, doing things they know are prohibited, noise, loud noise, disrespect. General disobedience. With often 45+ students in the room, things can get heated. The no fail policy doesn't help as students are aware they can behave badly and still get a pass grade. As I said, I don't condone the teachers actions. However, I think a good look at the bigger picture within that classroom and mitigating circumstances would be a good thing. I have seen teachers leave classrooms in tears. Broken by the behaviour of the students. Were the students punished? No. Counseling for teachers, training on behaviours of concern and more effective ways to discipline students required.

All Thai teachers teaching in OBEC schools require a degree in Education. Subject teachers need a bachelor degree in Education with a major in their chosen subject.

Let's kill the idiocy from he, only one so not sure why "let's" is in your comment, that can see past the end of their own nose. Read the link but engage your brain first. That should do it.

I'm not dodging anything. No one has "called me out" correctly. Only falsely. The link explains everything. I deleted the link to the dictionary and replaced with a thesaurus prior to your post. That will be more useful to you.

Please read the report I linked to. The MET and the ex head of public prosecutions make it quite clear. Here's another link to help you: https://www.thesaurus.com/

No. It most definitely is there. Maybe you should have gone to Specsavers. Or school.

It's in the link.

I think you'll find there will not be an investigation, ar this point, as there is no new or relevant information. Even Starmer, former head of public procecutions said only "credible" accusations should be investigated. Maybe the MET could go after Republic for wasting police time. They did, afteralll, report a false crime.

Actually, no. I've opened 5 bank accounts in my time in Thailand. The longest time it took was about 45 minutes.

Some good points.

I didn't give advice. I said " I've never paid to open a bank account".

No. They are allegations. There is no evidence. It would appear the Met agree. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67893392

Then the UK police don't need to be informed. It's already being dealt with. Or at least allegations are. I don't see how Republuc can report a crime when there's no evidence. Like I said, nothing to do with Republic.

With answers to questions; Where?, When?, Who?, What did you witness?. Questions that Republic cannot answer.

I said "I've never paid to open a bank account".

I have, yes.

WTF has it got to do with Replublic. The reports are in no way connected to them. If there are charges to be made, leave it to the police and courts.

I have never paid to open a bank account. Only requirement has been the 100 baht for ATM.

I know. I was pointing out he doesn't need both, as he was suggesting in his post.

If you pass the income requirements, you don't need 800k in the bank.

You speak for everyone? Wow. You have such a high opinion of yourself. BTW, I did get an answer.

Try harder at what? All I did was ask a question. You might want to try harder at giving straight answers.
