Blowback begins about latest visa exemptions and DTV discretion
Wishful thinking if ever there was.

Chiang Mai Residents Protest Landfill's Overwhelming Odour and Flies
New Power Plant 'approved'; now all that needs to be sorted is how much each Official is pocketing out of the Project before a sod is turned and once that's decided it will probably be at least another 5-10 years before the thing is working...if it works at all !

Are you a Trump supporter?
Seems to me that Americans are either in one camp or the other and no matter who leads that camp they will vote for them like sheeple if they are a good person or bad. I am not American but i would not vote for Trump if i were as he is basically a Man that only cares about himself and every time i hear him say 'America First' i always think what he really means is 'Trump First' !

Thailand unveils new visa rules, sparks mixed reactions
Seems to me that this is just another way for the Immigration Boss asking to bolster his staff numbers to cope with all the extra work. Never mind about the overcrowded Immigration Offices wher we Expat 'Customers' have to wait sometimes for hours to get our Extensions etc sorted, they just don't give a Fig for those of us who support the Economy year in and year out !

Senate Degree Scandal Exposes Thai Society’s Academic Title Obsession
I have Thai people living around me with truck loads of 'Degree's' according to them but the majority of them and a lot of other Thai's i meet are actually well behind others in this part of The World. General Knowledge...Zero, Common Sense....Zero, Accountability....Zero, Responsibility....Zero, very few seems to be aware of what's happening around them and just seem to live in their own Little World where they are Legends in their own minds !
