  1. Just leave them at half-mast year round, to mourn your own daily road deaths..., but no, you have to mourn the passing of an oppressive, tyrannical tool instead.
  2. as written by AIM (automated intelligence machines)
  3. MAHIDOL UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF DENTISTRY
  4. Long time ago these "systems" were put in place by the "powers that be". Education system, Justice system, Election system, Legal system, Military, Police - they all existed for one purpose: maintain and protect the status quo. They were allowed to corrupt themselves as long as they fulfilled their purpose, it was their reward. Then Internet and Social Media showed up and caught these institutions and their representatives with their pants down, sometimes even literally. That momentum is building and those "powers" are aware of it. I'm sure that they are brainstorming behind the scenes on how to counter this...
  5. "We have some 10-years-old rice, could you possibly make a pasta out of that?"
  6. Actually, I suppose we must thank the British for that... https://www.britannica.com/topic/Opium-Wars https://asiapacificcurriculum.ca/learning-module/opium-wars-china https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/education/resources/hong-kong-and-the-opium-wars/
  7. Just do it thoroughly and impartially, without considering the bad image for the education system
  8. He is 65, probably receives a government pension for his valuable work.
  9. Also reportedly, Bangkok will "soon" be under water.
  10. Just say you don't wanna talk about it, it's more honest and doesn't portray you as an ignorant puppet.
  11. Here's the thing: If you had made an online appointment you wouldn't have had to wait 4 hours, they would have told you that you were at the wrong location when you showed up.
  12. It's actually not complex at all: there are no ethics, the law is subverted and politics are self-serving. It's just the grandstanding of two different groups wanting their particular brand of corruption to succeed.
  13. Now I understand the need for submarines better... until the folks come up with local festival torpedoes...
  14. because all the good looking guys are in Thailand.
  15. I want to comment, but there is just too much comedic material here...
  16. Ok, you got me... The Tropical Santa
  17. this would only happen if the senior politicians du jour will be making a tidy profit from the move.
  18. I am sure he has, but what they gonna do? Put him back in Police Hospital?
  19. She put the international spotlight onto a law that is used for oppression, making those upholding and misusing it very uncomfortable. We are so used to Thai politicians changing their ideology and party for their own gain, she makes them look like spineless parasites. She died for her ideals. There are those AN posters who say she committed suicide, do you really think she made the conscious decision to end her life? She defended her political conviction with the only means available to her: hunger strike. What killed her were the attitudes of bureaucrats adhering to the system, and the phlegmatic public attitude about that law.
  20. equal access to the Police Hospital for all prisoners
  21. missing a point: 9, **Indian Gold Necklace Snatch**: A valuable contribution the the country's GDP.
  22. as has the prose in news reporting.
