  1. Obey? You clearly have not even fundamental knowledge of how a constitutional monarchy works. Also, remember. It is not the royal family that create the entertainment. (A recent book excluded).The "circus" as you put it. That is the media. I'm sure, if they could, they'd love to live a life without cameras being pointed at them everywhere they go.
  2. Varies from hospital to hospital. Our local hospital has a sign up asking for masks to be worn. There is,a box of masks next to the sign. Healthcare facilities still take Covid seriously. If someone has tested positive, back to wearing masks.
  3. That wouldn’t happen. The media frenzy about them would continue far into the future.
  4. They are deemed "Private". Not much difference to curriculum as the are governed by OBEC. The can accept students from any area in Thailand and are not governed by the rule they must take 60% from their catchment area. They will receive small government grants. The teachers at private schools do not need to have a university degree in their taught subject. At a school I worked at there were teachers teaching English because they "spoke a bit". Their degree was in something like Social Science.
  5. I can't answer that. However, there will likely be some kind of legislation to deal with it. William seems OK as does George. The monarchy seems in good hands for the foreseeable future.
  6. And what about the plethora of castles and other royal sights around Britain?
  7. Indeed. Not tax payers though. It will cost the treasury. The money will come from funds receive from 85% of the Crown earnings from tax year 2022/2023. The UK economy will lose more money because of the extra bank holiday that so many wanted.
  8. And what elected head of state of any country has been suitable or talented? Trump? Macron? The majority of those in Africa? South America? Asia?
  9. I can't believe you don't know the Sovereign Grant is a percentage (15%) of what the treasury collect from the Crown earnings. The Crown are large net contributors to the economy.
  10. Quite right. Just like I said. Those that can't test will end up lower government or private schools. Testing for EP is a different kettle of fish.
  11. Judging by your OP, you clearly know very little.
  12. And therein, for all to see, lies the problem.
  13. In your, it's difficult to know exactly how long as your story changes from time to time but less say, 5 years on and off in Isaan you have clearly know learned anything about local culture. Let the attitude go and try to indulge.
  14. Not so. Not quite sure what you mean as "semi private" but private schools will generally accept students who can pay. Entrance tests for good government schools are tougher. Students who fail government school tests generally will end up at a private school, where money talks.
  15. You said " it happens ALL the time". If that's not making it look commonplace, what is it suggesting?
  16. This topic is applying for a UK passport. Not US. Your post was all three.
  17. I would try the bars/restaurants/cafes in the areas around the University. Thai students tend to love their football. Should be many places with the football on.
  18. Happens all the time? That (one) video? I for 1, another one, have never seen it happen either.
  19. That is a word lost in translation. A word often used in company names of bus companies plying regular routes. The article even says it was a bus on a route from Ubon to Bangkok. The companybrun several routes. Including Phayakaphum Phisai to Bangkok. Check the company website. It's all on there to see.
